I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

After Shanette Williams learned that her daughter Amber Thurman died because doctors refused to treat her after an abortion, she decided to dedicate her life to telling Thurman’s story. Now she’s part of a powerful new phenomenon: the abortion storyteller.

I just find it funny that we're looking at Nicole Kidman and Demi Moore and being like, "Is Hollywood ready for older female characters?" Nicole's face hasn't moved in a decade! Demi made a film about Hollywood beauty standards, but SHE STILL MEETS THEM. We are only ready for botoxed to hell women.

I miss her, especially today. I would snuggle my nose deep in her face and kissed her muzzle a dozen times. She was the best dog ever. She got me through the 2016 election and I’ll always love her for that and more.
