“Kirstjen, you didn’t hear me the first time, honey,” Trump reportedly said. “Shoot ’em down. Sweetheart, just shoot ’em out of the sky, O.K.?”
Yeah, no, I cannot compute feeling “ire” at ever seeing a little girl who looks like this or having the nerve to compare this hairstyle—which looks like the girl just got out of soccer practice for fuck’s sake—to minstrel imagery.
This isn’t a new thing. I remember all the shit that Gabby Douglas got at the Olympics, mostly from older black women, for not having perfectly styled hair. Girl is doing a back flip on a piece of wood 4 inches wide and landing on one foot, who gives a fuck what her hair looks like?
The headline on Fox:
“No One Impregnated” made me laugh so hard my cats got upset about it.
Lauren Duca’s behavior at NYU is shameful but so is NYU’s hiring of Lauren Duca to teach a journalism class. Teaching is hard. Teaching a 3-hour college class is extremely hard.

I commend the innovators and disruptors whose first instinct to dealing with social ills is to profit off of them.
there are a number of things that are profoundly depressing about late capitalism, but the “hollow a victim out so you can use their skin as a puppet to sell merch” bit has always struck me as uniquely ghoulish
She is one of the worst kinds of DNC establishment shills. It’s so blatantly obvious she’s not interested in upsetting the oligarchy.
The Center for American Progress is a “centrist” organization primarily funded by monied interests and the ThinkProgress site is one of the few productive and progressive things they have accomplished. What is called “centrism” here is right wing in every other part of the world.
Everyone dipshit associated with CAP should have been strapped to the top of a rocket and launched in to the sun after 2016. That they’re allowed to even show their fucking face in public after that is proof that the Democratic Party is completely fucked.
