I have a friend who was born without a hand. A guy broke up with her because “watching her struggle” with one hand was too hard for him. Poor pookie.

In all fairness:

Cos no one wants to stay in a hospital. Having spent long periods of time in a hospital, no matter how nice, it’s still sucks.

1. But the weather!! I used to live in Palo Alto and while there are definitely things to dislike about it, the weather is literally perfect for 85% of the year. And even that other 15% is mostly overcast and 65 degrees.

I read that last word (quickly) as decapitated,and I smiled. For...reasons.

The science tells us that education does not equal behavior change. Cheney supported marriage equality after his daughter came out. Nancy Reagan supported stem cell research after her husband died of Alzheimer’s. It’s not a lack of education, it’s a lack of empathy. You cannot educate people into giving a shit about…

like, this was my rent, which I just spent on this thing that’s not happening.

I liked it. Let me explain why. I COMPLETELY agree with Kara that the right wing characters are hideous. This is not normal! We cannot ever accept this as our new reality. Ever. But listen - what is the solution? We can’t make them vanish with a magic wand, we’re not allowed to lock them in a fucking basement. If we…

Being trans is not a “self-imposed ‘camp’.” Climate change is not a “choice.” Sure, disagreeing with someone about certain specific policy ideas is one thing, but when one group actively denies the existence of another group or tries to use political might to harm a group/the earth, it’s not just people on opposite…

Yes! And it really shows how little we care about women and LGBT folks. Can you imagine if the ad had a racist guy and a black guy? Because that’s essentially what it was. The anti-trans guy was like “trans people shouldn’t exist, it’s wrong, it’s against nature!” That is no different, to me, than saying black people…

You can find corn in a cup anywhere you find Mexicans. If you are gonna name a San Antonio Specialty, you gotta go with the puffy taco. Most people think Henry’s are the best, but I am partial to the ones from Oscars taco house

It’s a really weird connection to make. A person with a certain characteristic commits a crime. He is completely unrelated to this company, they didn’t hire him, he doesn’t have anything to do with them, but they hire people with one of the characteristics he has, so they’re somehow at fault? The guy was also male.…

Oh James (and all the rest of my dear followers). What a lovely way to start my day - with pressure! OK, people.

The reason no one mentions the dead man’s crimes is that they are irrelevant to the way he was treated while in custody. 

Can I still make fun of Trump for being fat and having a bad toupee?

nope. Trainspotting. That baby...

Her death was so powerful and so real because it was embedded within the context of BLM. It’s truly hard to watch because it’s not just about Poussey dying at the hands of a guard. How the private corporation strategizes on a response is exactly how I think the law enforcement operates when an unarmed minority is…

Say, very loudly, “DON’T GRAB MY PUSSY!” Say, very loudly, to your daughters, “THIS MAN IS A PUSSY GRABBER!”

Trump hasn’t met my seven-year-old. While registering for the Easter egg roll ticket lottery (because this is on my bucket list and I refuse to let the presence of that idiot deter me for the next four years), my kid asked what we would do if we crossed paths with Trump there. I turned it around and asked, “What do…

Recently watched The Age of Adaline and was pretty impressed with her.
