As someone who had to watch her country (Hungary) slide into a one-party system and the government turn into a literal fascist leadership (our prime minister just talked about backing out of the European Convention on Human Rights) - “prioritizing” offenses and giving smaller offenses a slide while focusing on the big…

“It has been less than a week and there have already been funding freezes and efforts to restrict scientists from communicating their findings (from tax-funded research!) with the public. These actions are absurd and cannot be allowed to stand as policy.”

Freaks and Geeks would like a word with you! :)

Hey all, I called this meeting because well remember how 10 of our teammates were at a party and a bunch of them raped a girl? Well now they are being suspended and that’s just not fair. I mean just think, next time it might be you who gets suspended for raping a girl. You wouldn’t want that to happen to you right?…

I know plenty about Catholicism. My wife is Catholic and my in-laws are very conservative Catholics.

Here’s why this matters. I am 32 years old. I still have very distinct memories of my second grade class celebrating Black history month February 1993, and wondering to myself how much longer this month would go on- Because at 8, I did not understand the importance of taking a moment to single out Black American’s…

Did she really need to fuck him up with a coat hanger prior?

I am 64- This is my current Facebook status: I was the third person in my district to vote this morning. My hand shook and my heart pounded when I filled in the oval for the Clinton Kaine electors. My vote is for me, and it’s for my country. But even more than that, my vote is for my four granddaughters, and for my…

and who would you like that to be? seriously, who is this magical mythical savior? politics is *difficult*. people don’t want to run for president cause it fucking sucks. I’m willing to bet you have never run for office. So who is this fresh blood gonna be? You literally cannot make it that high up without fucking…

As a caveat, bear in mind that the ABC News/WaPo poll is insane. Its first poll number, from about ten days ago, had Clinton up above Trump by 12 points in the four way race, which was certainly not true. Over the next eight days that dropped down to Trump leading by one.

As a woman, it’s a big deal to me because I have no way of know which of my friends, peers, or colleagues completely ignores all other aspects of my being and only discusses me as a compilation of body parts that they would like to molest in one way or another as soon as I walk out the door. It makes me feel as though…

Rory is the worst and Lorelai is a close second. I always tell my husband that it would a be such a great show if they weren’t in it.

Very good point, plus feeling bad about having any of those thoughts about other people. A friend felt like a bad person thinking her fiancé, who she is supposed to love and support, might have a thing for younger girls, but it turns out her initial intuition was spot on. He was accused, convicted and jailed and she…

And that same socialization blames us for all the negative outcomes: from getting duped on a date to physical abuse.

This, released by Marvel themselves, is far, far, better.

I am so fucking sick of this shit. He doesn’t deserve his fucking family because he essentially just stole away his daughter’s. To be abused horrifically by someone who you love and trust and HIM being the one they’re worried about. It’s baffling and sad.

Truly “believing women” would require hearing what we’re saying and then taking actions accordingly. And gee doesn’t that sound exhausting?

I appreciate and respect the sentiment, the bravery, and the integrity in taking a stand even in the face of violent opposition.

Hi my fellow Jezzies, I just wanted to take this moment to talk about something that has been bothering me in the comments. A lot of people here have speculated as to whether Trump has dementia due to his repugnant comments. My dad has dementia, he was diagnosed about four years ago. He never has, nor would he ever…
