I love this woman.

I just wanted to share my point of view here on a related subject. Since people are always commenting on how the focus is on protecting the boys’ future. I think there are a lot of shades of grey on this one.

Bow down to the Bee! Oh, and if you live in Georgia, please vote State Senator Renee Unterman out of office. I will be eternally grateful.

Samantha Bee is just so fucking amazing and everything we need in in late night/on tv/IN GENERAL. I got the chance to watch the show as it taped last night and man, this lady is ON FIRE. She’s talking about all the stuff I hear from girlfriends, mom, aunts, etc. are always saying and don’t really get to hear on TV.…

What is just as unfortunate is that you have medical examiners highlighting that they are not getting the resources they need to do the job. LA County just had their own coroner quit, leaving something like 181 bodies awaiting exam. Presumably, he wasn’t goofing off, but it is simply the workload was too much for the…

It’s not about not doing any work to investigate and prosecute, it’s about what evidence is useful. Law enforcement aren’t going to test a kit if the perp says it’s consensual UNLESS there is another way to prove it wasn’t along with the kit. Unfortunately they usually have to use other tactics at that point. So,…

Most rapes are indeed committed by someone the victim “knows” — but that doesn’t mean it’s someone they are in an ongoing long-term relationship with, it just means they aren’t complete strangers jumping out of the bushes. Most rapes are also committed by someone who will rape more than one woman. So not doing any…

Her show is so funny, why was the advertising when it came out so BAD? Oh yeah PATRIARCHY

I know it varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction but all of the law enforcement that I work with picks and chooses which ones get tested. As far as I know that’s how it is all over my state. Now they won’t test Jane Doe kits until a report is made. So if someone chooses an anonymous kit, then law enforcement doesn’t…

Same... while I have sympathy for what he’s going though, I was real interested to read the comments on this piece. Living the life of a starving artist is an okay choice to make if it’s just affecting you, but in this case? And affecting your kids for so long?? At what point are you damaging your kids to fulfill a…

But when they’re not testing kits, it’s all the kits . Sure when the assailant is known they could wait until they think there’s enough other evidence to proceed since the kit itself won’t prove anything but those aren’t the only kits on hold. Those from stranger rapists, incest , incapacitated victims are also going…

First of all, I’m all for testing all the rape kits. If we dedicate enough resources to testing them, it’s possible to do. Very expensive to do, but so is everything else we spend government money on so that’s no excuse.

Watching her last night I finally had the feeling like yes we have a late night host who is skewering everyone who deserves it. When she read the feminist rule book and just said fuck it and destroyed her. John Oliver is great and fantastic at his job, but Sam Bee has that anger that we all feel hearing this type of…

If someone was inclined to skirt the laws and torrent, such person could go to thepiratebay.se and type in “Great British Bake Off S06E01" and get a 720p copy of each episode with subtitles, and couldthen increment to S06E02 and so forth for each remaining episode, should such person be inclined to do so.

Oy, she is not a victim of slavery. She is a victim of a patriarchal arrangement; she is a victim of capitalism, which values ownership and propriety over labor. She is not anyone’s legal property, to be bought and sold, in the same manner as slaves. She receives remuneration for her labor, and was given the right to…

It’s a really serious condition that appears on humans who are walking in the shadow and a part of their body is hit by a ray of light. :)

I was thinking about this the other day... Remember how there were like 2-3 generations who were shamed away from the word “feminist”? I feel like with some people... this happened with Hillary Clinton. Not only the vitriol thrown at her but the condescending, “don’t just vote for her because she’s a woman.” which I…

Never mind them.... The poster is probably pissy that you have not taken it upon yourself to discuss the Hogan lawsuit and using every opportunity to try to crucify you just because you work for Gawker Media. It’s passive aggressive trolling at it’s dumbest. You could be blogging about kitty cats and you’ll get the…

Yet because I am but one blogger who, during her shift, is limited in what she can cover, I took note of this story and felt strongly that it—to the exclusion of other things—warranted attention and conversation.

I saw that and people have no idea why the other five kids didn’t go to dinner with their grandfather. I mean I don’t believe each one had an emergency where they could not make it, but what if the one you were sending death threats to did?
