I do. This is Jez, not Gawker.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, but sometimes policies need a soft sell to the public. Obama was pretty good at that. It’s not necessary, but it’s useful. I don’t know if Kaine’s got much of the common touch, either, but it’s fine. We are dealing with a generation that finds hope-y change-y rhetoric now

This has been my favorite internet picture circulating:

When I was 10, my social studies teacher told our class that “A woman will never be elected president because women don’t vote for other women.” Not having the finely-honed misogynistic-bullshit detector I do today in elementary school, I believed him.

Damn, DNC, between this and Bernie’s motion to nominate and the mothers of Sandra Bland, Trayvon Martin, etc. on stage, you really know how to chop up some onions.

He looks like Christian Bale’s character in American Psycho.

I LOVE JOHN OLIVER’S DANGER DANCE

I am legitimately more unnerved by Carlos Danger’s reference to rented mules than this.

My heart is broken for every woman up there...

This was beautiful, and I’m so glad the DNC gave these women the opportunity to speak. Seeing them all together like that was so powerful. And then Andra O’Day’s performance immediately following was perfect, and I have basically cried my way through Day 2.

You think Escobedo is an English name? stfu.

I want her to be President some day.

The only bit of relief from this heatwave?

Please thank this loyal citizen for planting the seed.

It’s amazing. I look like a psycho when I watch it. There’s a lot of clapping my hands together and yelling “suck it, assholes!” She does not pull her punches.

Oh, if you’ve voted Republican in every national election since the 90s, you just straight up don’t have a fucking conscience, period.

If “not liberal enough” is your reason to not vote for Hillary when the alternative is *actual fascism*, your liberalism is just narcissism

It was about “anyone but Hillary” and always was. The GOP’s 3 year witch hunt was very successful. Even people who should know better fell for it.
