“I hope you realize the irony of what she’s doing,” Paul Czisny, a Wisconsin delegate for Bernie, said, nodding his head backward at a young woman standing in the stands, a piece of white tape across her mouth that said in stark black letters SILENCED. Periodically, she stood up and photographers rushed over, camera shutters whirring, to snap her admittedly very dramatic portrait.
“She’s able to vote, she’s able to get elected as a delegate, she’s able to come here,” Czisny rolled his eyes. He’s as pissed off as anyone about the business of the DNC emails—“it just feeds the frustrations of the Bernie people”—but he was frustrated with people like that young woman. “Unfortunately, all they’re doing is aiding the Trump camp,” he said. “Virtually no one here”—meaning the Bernie delegates—“is going to vote for Trump, but will they stay home? Will they vote for Jill Stein [of the Green Party]? I find this maddening because we’ve seen this movie before, and if we think Bush was a disaster, Trump will be an even bigger disaster.”
Like the other Bernie supporters in the Wisconsin delegation, he doesn’t love Hillary, but he would do the adult thing and vote for her come November. “Because I’m not selfish,” says 22-year-old Bernie activist Hailey Storsved, who led the student movement for Sanders at her university. “It’s kind of like saying, ‘I’m taking my ball and going home.’”

Dear heterosexual white cis male showrunners,
Claiming that after killing off a major queer female character you “understand the outrage and can relate to the pain,” is at best entitled, and at worst offensive.
Our pain isn’t yours. You can’t relate to shit when literally 94% of your Netflix, Hulu and HBO accounts reflect and cater to you… Try again.
this also doesnt take into account what role the character plays; how many of these characters get to be fully-developed and fleshed out protagonists as opposed to like, token gay side character? one-off gay jokes like jasper from family guy? etc.
oh ok
There is a German word, Kummerspeck, that means “the excess weight gained from emotional eating” and that translated literally means “grief bacon.” And this, friends, is the perfect stock photo to illustrate that.
The polar opposite of “women laughing alone with salad”
