just thinking

I was think­ing to­day that if Amer­i­can cul­ture were more sex pos­i­tive and the Equal Rights Amend­ment had been passed at a fed­er­al lev­el, women might not feel so ashamed and scared to speak up about their sex­u­al assault.

But then it oc­curred to me that there would prob­a­bly be a lot less sex­u­al as­sault go­ing on in a cul­ture like that, anyway.

Ka­vanaugh nev­er should have made it to this point. 

It was un­ac­cept­able for him to even be con­sid­ered for a po­si­tion on the Supreme Court long be­fore he was ac­cused of sex­u­al assault.

In a few months it will be 2019. 

Whether you tru­ly do be­lieve that oral con­tra­cep­tives ARE abor­ti­fa­cients, or you are even just the least bit in­vest­ed in the in­ter­ests of the peo­ple who do, it doesn’t mat­ter, and those two po­si­tions should be treat­ed as one in the same.

The slight­est in­sis­tence on con­tin­u­ing to in­dulge ig­no­rant, su­per­sti­tious peo­ple who es­chew sci­ence and ig­nore fact should dis­qual­i­fy you from be­ing a sub­sti­tute teacher, nev­er mind a Jus­tice of the Supreme Court.
