I’d call this middle school humor, except I have a middle schooler and he knows better. There’s nothing new about incel losers airing out their hatred of women and calling it comedy, but I thought SNL had better quality control than this.

It is truly not that complicated folks!!
Also I do find it odd that Kirk describes men opting out of dating women, when it’s definitely the exact opposite that’s happening. And this is why; this is a bare minimum relational skill to establish safety, and it’s treated like too much to ask.

There were 57 men in the fraternity group chat. Seven turned out to be rapists. 50 turned out to be cowards. The culture of sexual violence and the dehumanization of women and girls is not perpetuated primarily by the rapists, but by those who say nothing.
Men must be willing to break ranks with the patriarchy. This won’t just happen. It’s easy for us to talk a big game, but when a young man is faced with the possibility of social ostracization from his friends, it can be difficult to speak up. That’s why we as parents must prepare our sons for these moments. We must talk to them about the culture of impunity that perpetuates violence against women and girls, and what being a good man actually looks like. It doesn’t mean not ra**ng someone—that is the lowest imaginable bar. It means standing up and using your voice and putting yourself in the way. It means holding other men accountable. It means being willing to be made fun of by men in order to stand up for women. It would have only taken one man to go into that bedroom, tell the other men to get the f*ck away from her, and walk her home to safety. Parents of sons, let’s raise men who are willing to stand up for women in that way. ❤️

When the most powerful men in the country can dodge accountability on the Epstein Files, every institution below them learns the same lesson.

New polling from COURIER found that 88% of midterm voters, including 83% of Republicans, will prioritize candidates who promise to hold powerful people accountable. Right now that looks like releasing the Epstein files and prosecuting the abusers, no matter how rich they are.

Abdul El-Sayed answered Scott beautifully, saying, “people don’t want to use the word because of the moral implication of what ought to be done following it… I think that word speaks to the moral imperative of action to prevent that.”
Right now, people of every ethnic background must come together and acknowledge reality, so that we can do something about it: there is an ongoing genocide in Israel, and the United States is complicit.
There is a horrific rise in anti-semitism, which must be denounced everywhere it shows up. There is no room for hatred or violence against any ethnic group. But being honest about the genocide Israel is committing is not anti-semitic. Israel does not represent Jewish people; it is a right wing apartheid state. In fact, there is nothing worse for Jewish people than equating Israel’s violence with what it means to be Jewish.

We need to overturn Citizens United. This may be one of the most important things we can do to save our democracy, so let me just give you a quick explainer.
In 2010, the Supreme Court ruled in Citizens United v. FEC that the government can’t limit how much corporations, unions, and other groups spend on independent political ads, treating that spending as protected free speech. That decision opened the door to super PACs, which can raise and spend unlimited money to elect or defeat candidates. It’s why DoorDash could drop a million dollars into a New York mayor’s race and why the AI industry can spend $8 million to take out one state lawmaker who wanted safety rules. When a corporation can outspend every voter in a district combined, politicians end up working for corporations, not the people. Any politician who is not concerned with overturning citizens United is a walking red flag. They do not work for you. They’re trying to get that bag.

I’ve had several people ask me: now that we’re getting married, who’s moving where (Scarlett is in Detroit, I’m in Raleigh, nobody can move bc of children and shared custody)?
And the answer is, nobody’s moving anywhere! This has been the unsolvable problem we’ve wrestled with since we first (foolishly?) fell in love. We have shed many tears over it, processed it through a few mushroom trips, and broke up several times only to get back together. The first few break ups were early—we had first started talking and were both quickly struck by the power of the connection, but it scared us—because we shouldn’t fall for someone who lives hundreds of miles away when relocating is not an option, right? Ending this before it starts is the sensible thing, surely! Well, we tried. Turns out, it’s not so easy to break up with someone when all you want is to be with them.
Throughout our relationship, we’ve struggled to fully bite down and commit to this decade span of time that stands between us and a shared bedroom. When we discussed marriage, it felt almost cruel, insulting, to imagine getting married and then heading back to our respective states. It’s not what we want—what we very much want is to build a shared life. This year, the instability of our situation came to a head, with the first break up that felt real. During that time, it became clear for both of us that while we would love all the trappings of an ordinary marriage, what we wanted more than any of that was the friendship we had found in each other. As much as I’d like to spoon every single night, what I actually can’t live without is my favorite conversation partner and the lifelong conversation we get to have together. We are getting married, not because we figured out how to change our daunting logistics, but because we are accepting them as a worthy price to pay for a soul mate.
So cheers babe—there’s nobody I’d rather suffer through the next decade with than you. 💞 ILY

This is a disgusting display of white Christian supremacy, and if you are a white Christian, I believe it is your responsibility to loudly repudiate this. We have to be honest about the fact that this kind of bigotry came from White Christian theologies and White Christian imaginations.
