Beanmom Linked To It, But Bears Repeating: Susan G. Komen Stopped Donating To Planned Parenthood Because

Beanmom linked to it, but bears repeating: Susan G. Komen stopped donating to Planned Parenthood because of screeching right-wingers. That might have been reversed after a huge outcry.

I’m not asking for an org to agree with me in all things, but SGK promotes itself as being in the forefront for womens’ health. They’re supposed to be the “agreeable” choice. If they can’t stand fast for PP, what are they going to give up next?

So proud of my mother for doing her own research after I sent her that meme. A sign she hung in her car window.

Each wearing the other's color tie bumps this from incredible to extra-incredible.

give em’ the ol’ razzle dazzle

I’m a big fan of anywhere but the lips (or everywhere but the lips, in some cases).

Do you think they'll show Lapis and Peridot kiss on screen? I would die of happiness.

Considering American censorship, I don’t think a mouth kiss would happen unless Rebecca Sugar is a sorcerer. lmao HOWEVER… they might get away with the following:

1) They have the classic “fake out” where they’re about to kiss, but they get interrupted or the camera cuts away

2) They show other signs of affection (like hand holding, cheek kisses, etc.) to get the point across. That’s how it goes with Rupphire, currently.

It sucks, but censors (especially at larger animation companies) are a pain in the ass.

Amethyst gets another song? Yay!!

“Tower of Mistakes” is fine, but it’s a bit of a feint in the episode. And “On the Run” is a duet, and at that point she doesn’t even know then what the other Amethysts are like, or Jaspers.

Or does she? The big arc of the show is how Pearl and Garnet unpack Gem history to Steven. Yet there is a lot to explore with Ame too.

There an Amethyst song coming, what do you think its about? There was pictures of Michaela Dietz singing in the booth in twitter!

They had that part in “Back to the Kindergarten” that suggested Amethyst might be questioning her past again.

“But life doesn’t start in a Kindergarten. It ends here. I’ve gotten used to plants everywhere. Bugs and breeze and sunshine… All of that has been sucked out of this place. It’s with the Amethysts that were produced here, and now, this place is nothing but a miserable husk. All of the Amethysts are gone.”

And then they zoom into her face, and show her looking a little… contemplative, I guess?

If I had to guess, it would be something concerning that.

I’m cringing at the idea of what “incel rock” or “incel country” sound like.

Aren’t there enough bad songs already about self-unaware adolescent guys who can’t get dates for reasons they don’t comprehend?

JAQing off, “I’m Just Asking Questions!”, is the preferred use of "True Principled Conservatives” on message boards such as NPR.

These fellows (no sic) can be spotted by their reciting of right-wing bullshit, and asking others to prove the non-provable.

They were fans of George W. Bush until he became the lowest-rated, least-popular president in a century (until Trump). They like those three quotes from MLK and ignore all the others about war, poverty, built-in racism, and how black people own guns for defense.

They congregate in the safe spaces of mainstream media where right-wingers with great breath control spew talking points and polite hosts don’t say anything, and the most reliable way for liberal points to get on the air is by call-in participation.

The white male style of debate is to antagonize you until you snap. Then they win by default, because they make up their own rules in which being upset automatically invalidates your argument. The key is also to argue about things that they have no stake and experience in, so they dont snap first. Of course in the event that they do snap first, its of course passion, not anger…

White people are like little kids who make up new rules and obnoxious powers to keep themselves from losing….

At the end of it all, they are happy that you are so civil and can debate things rationally and clearly without getting upset. Everyone shakes hands and thanks everyone for being able to discuss “conflicting” viewpoints. Because after all everyone needs to hear the opposing side to truly be sophisticated. Even if you’ve heard that side all your life and it completely devalues you as a human being.

What i hear is that the mark of civilization to white people is being dehumanized and taking it like a champ. 

They also have little to no concept of power dynamics in these ‘sophisticated” discussions.
