"nuclear war" and "treason" are the words in the news, the president's team has begun to voraciously eat itself alive, and bill and hillary clinton's house is on fire.

- diary entry; 2018, day 3.

Cue Ginme Shelter and pour me a drink.

How many very serious history books will now include the phrase "Kushner shit is greasy" thanks to this cluster fuck of a time period?

Stock market is up, Best Korea and Worst Korea are talking again, and PJ is working on a new album. All and all , a solid news day.

Geezes, its even uglier.

2017 at least had a slice of Obama to begin with.

Exactly how small IS Trump's dick anyway?

Steve Bannon the star of 2018

this is a very misleading tweet. he doesnt say that. what he says if what if you were a white woman and treated the same exact way. he is implying maybe not everything is racists and maybe people just treat women shitty. it is a valid argument

It's a valid question, but he answer is that there is no chance in hell that a white woman takes as much abuse as a black woman.

im not sure there is any one way to prove or disprove that

I want a time machine to just go, say, 15 years in the future if only to what is being written about the Trump administration.

What he says is, if you want to see racism everywhere, then you will. And that people are obsessing over victimhood. He then uses one weird barometer to "prove" his point...that white women get harassed too. Which is not a measurably demonstrable example of similar experience across race at all.

That racism creates additional struggles for black women beyond what their counterparts experience is, in fact, not hard to prove. Also, it's kiiiiiind of evident in the fact that two white men felt comfortable going on television to share a story about how one of them scolded a black woman for thinking she has it rough.

Bannon lost the Mercers.

The funniest part of this is that it sounds like all these people thought they were giving unattributed quotes....unnamed source stuff....because the interviewer conflated 'off the record' with background interviews.

So maybe Ivanka really did say that about daddy's hair, thinking no one would ever know she'd done it.

i understand that the racism exists but it is tough to gauge what is offensive and what is not. to woman A getting catcalled is not a big deal. to woman B it very well may be. to say that something is blankely offensive is not true because it is up to an individual to decide what offends them, not what someone says should or shouldnt be offensive to them
