Really cannot stress enough that if you start from the assumption that no one deserves to be raped then you don’t have to highlight the specific vulnerabilities of particular survivors in order to get people on board with the fact that their violation was a bad thing

Child marriage is heinous, but one thing I never see brought up in those discussions is that if you are under 18, you cannot file for divorce. If you are under 18 and married to an adult, they are your legal guardian and make decisions for you. That is not a partnership.
Most Minors Who Are Married Can't File for Divorce — Even if They Want To
The final installment of Wedlocked, our series about child marriage in the U.S., explores divorce.

Here’s a story for every national news outlet:

In N.C., churchgoers are literally running into the woods as federal agents descend on the property.

“Inside the church, women and children sobbed as they wondered whether their loved ones had been taken.”

Not only are these goons soulless fascist creeps, they are truly fucking dumb.

They actually went to eat at a place where they earlier kidnapped someone?!?
I’m still struggling with the fact that ICE “brown shirts” went to a taco shop and thought they would get served.

F that!

A key takeaway from all this has to be "You don't have to listen to Republicans anymore." They're either perpetrators of fascism or suckers who fell for it. If you have conservative views we can consider them again in 50 years or so

"Homeland security investigators worked approximately 33 percent fewer hours on child exploitation cases from February through April compared to their average in prior years"

A tragic shift with real consequences - just one horrifying example:

In which the Vice President lashes out at a critic by subtly underlining her Jewishness, marking her as external to the community of the good.

The critic was pointing out that Tucker Carlson's son is on his staff; in response, he seamlessly adopts Carlson's antisemitic tactics

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

Keep coming back to Summers’ annoyance that this female mentee he’s trying to sleep with “takes her presentation very seriously.” To men like this—to a lot of men—women’s intellectual or professional ambition is an irritating presumption that they condescend to tolerate.
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

I can reassure the New York Times that networks of mutual protection, and misogynist retaliation efforts that benefit abusive men at the expense of the young women they prey upon, are very much still intact post-Me Too.
This is nauseating: “As the emails stretch through the years, they show how that protected realm vanished into the mists of time, pulled under by the rising forces of the internet and the #MeToo movement.” A “Gone With the Wind” framing for sexual abuse and harassment.
Seriously, what is wrong with these people?
