Yeah, he has “dead eyes.”

Ahhh yes, this truly is a micro-aggression that POC experience. Don’t know why I didn’t put that together earlier. Thanks for taking the time to explain it to this bonehead*

Ilana Glazer, I don't understand your tweet.

Any song that can make the words “ass blood” sound sultry, is what I’m all about.

I am now going to work tirelessly to make the term “fluffy” catch-on in the U.S., because I melted a bit when I read this and also because “a steamer” does not sound like something I would want in my child’s mouth.

Uhhh...

That is terrifying. I’m not sure what WA state laws are around this, but in some states he would be guilty of kidnapping. Uber’s response? “Sorry, you were potentially the victim of a Federal Crime, but we all have bad days.” Da fuck!!?? Time to revise that “Form Letter,” Uber.

A woman only Lyft or Uber is an interesting idea. I would use that for sure, but also worry that the female drivers would be at risk from male passengers (I have a feeling that is already why you don’t see many female drivers, even in medallioned cabs). If there was a legal/logistical way to ensure female passengers…

Yeah. Most of us spend far too much time victim blaming ourselves, but I’ve come to understand that this is also a coping mechanism. It’s a way to seek our own control over a situation where we had little, but felt intensely vulnerable. I guess what I’m trying to say is, let’s not blame ourselves too much, for blaming…

The rape and murder happened in 1999. He wasn’t convicted until 2009 because of delays due to mental competency hearings. He was found competent and convicted of murder, which the judge then overturned because of “insanity or mental defect.” I believe he is currently in a State mental hospital until he can prove his…

You missed the entire point. Tone deaf, dude.

Sorry, that’s super scary. I’m glad you are okay. It’s pretty chilling to understand how vulnerable we all are on a walk home. And if we accepted these rides, to our own demise, we would have probably been blamed for not being street-wise.

Thanks. Yep. exactly. Probably a “friend-zone” crybaby. Sadly he has “legitimized“ access to women because he works for a medallioned cab company.

I remember that. He was found legally insane, saying the “devil summoned him to act.” I also remember a lot of victim blaming, people shaking their heads about how drunk she was at the time of her rape and murder. Because it’s completely unheard of and irresponsible for a woman to drink too much and then take a cab.

That is super creepy sorry that happened to you. It’s good that you could easily access his info to report this asshat. And agreed, local taxi drivers can be just as creepy and aggressive. because misogyny. I live in SF and was once walking home mid-day. A yellow cab pulled up and the driver said out the window “Hey,…

I would wear the shit out of these. You have excellent shoe game.

My work place has a ‘babe in arms’ policy and I work for a statewide organization that advocates for quality, affordable child care. Guess what!? It’s incredibly rare in the U.S. People spend more on infant care than they do on rent or a mortgage. We like having your screaming infant in our work place. Everyone is…

Yasss. They are sex-positive!

I can’t imagine this great for the dolphin population either.

Actually, you’d need at least two fake babies to be legit for the Carpool Lane on the Bay Bridge.
