I read that book when I was a pregnant 16 year old in the late 80s. I had a super asshole pro life mother and I knew I’d be giving her up for adoption. I have hated seeing all the regressive laws and reproductive fuckery all my life, but hated it so much more the past several years and seeing the book become so…

Seriously. Bernie had a legitimate gripe with the DNC. He also polled Considerably higher than Tulsi Gabbard. I’m sure she’s been able to find a few voters to reinforce her echo chamber, but she can’t regularly crack 3% in polls.

We’re just not that into you Tulsi. Move on.

I have a friend who adopted a Marshallese child from the states. They have an open adoption with her son visiting the extended biological family at least once a year, and the mother gets pictures. She posted about this story in a private group page for friends that this man always gave her the creeps, and that he was…

Mormon stealing brown babies to give to white (I’m assuming) God fearin’ folk. I wonder how much some of these adoptive parents knew. I mean, it’s possible they thought they were just paying the costs of the adoption but one set of adoptive parents said it looked like a baby mill. Was he bringing prospective adopters…

Also: the population of the Marshall Islands is only about 50,000 people. The main population center is an island less than four square miles in size, and has about 20,000 people. He brought over more than 40 women in a little over two and a half years. Those are meaningful numbers in a community that small.

Me, reading the headline: I’ll bet this dick thought he was doing a service, putting babies in good Christian homes.

These are the same people who stand outside abortion clinics and shout about the “undeniable bond between mother and baby!” “you will live with a lifetime of regret!!”... unless you want to sell babies for profit. Looks like we now know ANOTHER reason repubs want to keep women pregnant. They want to sell that baby for…

I have been really shocked at the number of very well educated people I’ve encountered this year who say they aren’t getting the flu vaccine because they don’t want to get sick.  As in the vaccine will give them the flu.  I hardly know what to say in response.

I want to clarify that that image is not Tina Fey doing a Saturday Night Live sketch. Its real...

I don’t have anything meaningful to add, except that I fucking love Rebecca Traister, and everyone should read Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Anger.

I think that some people’s propensity to call every case of the sniffles “the flu” makes people underestimate how serious real flu is. I’ve had the flu twice. I got pneumonia both times, which is a common complication. My sister’s friend’s daughter has brain damage after my sister’s friend got the flu when she was…

THIS!

You’d like to believe that you’d act differently but trauma is a fucked up thing and you have absolutely NO idea what you would do until it happens to you.  Please stop second-guessing this poor woman.

I say this with the utmost courtesy, respect, and patience. Please, please, please turn off your computer and go fuck yourself.

Wow you are so close to getting to the point. It’s like right there. If you and your partner(s) don’t mind having sex while drunk and you talked about it before hand then it’s fine. But if you didn’t have consent before and then you have a right to say that it was rape if you feel that it was. In the case of the woman…

Rebecca Traister had an impactful reaction to all of this - that many of these men may be losing their jobs, their families, their esteem - but we’re all still left in the world they created. I think about that all the time with who the gatekeepers are, who controls the news, who controls which stories are told.

You may not have written this piece as an advertorial for Ronan Farrow’s upcoming book, but thanks for putting me onto it... the only reason I haven’t pre-ordered it just yet is that I haven’t decided yet on which format I’ll consume it (paper, Kindle or audio).

Thank you to Lt. Bob Kroll of the great Minneapolis Police Department for your kind words on @foxandfriends. The Police are fighting the Radical Left Mayor, and his ridiculous Uniform Ban. Actually, I LOVE the Cops for Trump shirts. Want to bring some home. I am with you 100%!!!!

The thing specifically mentioned in the Constitution is unconstitutional.

Stop it. Stop attacking women for having opinions, speaking out, and trying to make things better. What the hell happened to Jezebel? I’ve been around here for years, and recently the rhetoric has just become so hateful and isolating. This is ridiculous.
