... but wasn’t taken seriously by doctors.

I think about Serena Williams’ story all the time. Even all the money and notoriety in the world doesn’t protect you from being treated like you’re histrionic. She would have died on the table if they didn’t finally listen to her. It just doesn’t matter. Women (specifically WOC) are not taken seriously.

I’ve been following her announcements with interest. Was diagnosed with MS almost 10 years ago. And, like her, it took a while for doctors to take me seriously. Optic neuritis was a sprain from snowboarding. Numbness was back issues. Fatigue was laziness. It’s shocking how uneducated doctors are about the symptoms of…

I know - like all the important people around Trump are getting indicted for crimes they committed largely on behalf of him, and Sanders still thinks we’ll view them all as unconnected. Like Michael Cohen’s status as a felon is somehow exonerating for Trump!

“He lied for the president. That proves he can’t be trusted.”

Just as the White House will continue to insist that there is no link between Trump’s repeated vilification of and calls for violence against the media and acts of violence against the media, they will insist that any actions taken on Trump’s behalf were not at his behest, but were rather the vile, putrescent doings…

“White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders dismissed the reports in a statement to the Journal, saying, Cohen was a “disgraced felon.”

In the memo, Mueller notes, “Nothing about Manafort’s upbringing, schooling, legal education, or family and financial circumstances mitigates his criminality.”

I try not to engage in hyperbole, but can anyone think of any presidential administration that has had so much overt corruption?

I kind of hate that he retains a financial interest.   He’ll be basically making money off her labor to clean up the vestiges of his hatred.   Off the top of my head IDK how he could be forced to divest, but I sure would appreciate it if someone could look into it.

Well, and his attempt to equate the KKK - a designated hate group - with two government bodies with their federal investigative power lawfully granted under, you know, the Constitution, is just ...

Every younger woman in a leadership position has experienced this. The combination of sexualizing you while belittling your intelligence is a two-pronged strategy men use to demean you when they feel threatened by your power. My solution is to just femme it up even more while continuing to run shit the way I please.…

Confession time. I’m a Washington Post and Slate troll, but not that kind. I look at it like this: these guys don’t care and/or don’t want to hear facts, figures, arguments, etc. There’s no mind changing. So I have a little fun instead.

Harris has a wildly checkered past when it comes to her time as a CA AG. It’s not a hit piece, it’s incredibly relevant to our current political climate that’s examining how we implement prison sentencing and who is deserving of punishment.

Because she represents the future of the Democratic party. She’s going to be the Democratic nominee for President eventually. It won’t be for a few election cycles, but it’ll happen. She can sell her platform and she can drag the shit out of somebody who tries to undermine it. You know when somebody says something…

She’s an “uppity” person of color with more social media power than they ever dreamed of and she wouldn’t fuck them even if they were the last trust-funded pair of chinos on the desert island. Just spitballin’ here.

The best part about drunk-shopping on Amazon is that I can make regrettable purchases without getting arrested for not wearing pants.

I’d say not to get shitfaced so often but it’s been about 93 years since Trump was elected so not even gonna judge
