Judge Persky has disrespected the victim, the jury, past, present, and future rape victims, and the law.

For-profit prisons, for-profit medicine, for-profit education.... Ronnie’s terrible legacy of cruelty and also fiscal irresponsibility.

Oh, Lord!

“I am a man of few words” *walks off stage*

Yes! Also, if we spend more on education and social programs, we’ll wind up with fewer criminals and less crime. But what kind of a nutjob wants that?

I can tell you’re not very smart. The point is that we spend more on keeping people in prison than we spend on education. The whole prison system needs reform.

I have friends who will say but as a so and so, I couldn’t possibly understand. That shit is hella patronizing to me because though I’m not a woman, I can bring myself to understand…

I gave you a historical 411. Lesbian feminists were excluded by hetero feminists from being active participants in the Second Wave of Feminism (the same way white women tried to exclude black women and their concerns). The lesbionic sisterfriends were all hell no and decided to force their way into feminism. Had they…

Do you find the idea of women “looking masculine” so confusing in the trans/bathroom articles too? Our culture's traditional gender roles are pretty ubiquitous, it’s hard to imagine anyone being genuinely confused by this.

We can slice amys words to pieces, but we know what she meant, and I we all know that not performing for the male heterosexual eye probably does hurt female performers. It makes sense.

Wearing pants and button up shirts. Short hair. Not wearing makeup.

You know, looking like a dude. Wearing pants and button up shirts. Short hair. Not wearing makeup.

Wait! Has the US heard about this? YOU CAN JAIL RAPE VICTIMS? How is the US not all over this!?
