I’m watching the CNN film #RBG this morning cause I didn’t get to watch it when it aired.
Holy this opening montage with her workouts... it’s like you can see in her eyes that she knows she needs to stay alive as long as she can. #RBG
“In my life time, I expect to see 3, 4, perhaps even more women on the high court bench. Women not shaped from the same mold, but of different complexions.” #RBG, 1993 at her Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing.
Interviewer: What was it about Marty? (Her husband)
RBG: 😏
Audience roars.

The way she talks about him is pretty adorable. #RBG
Narrator: Harvard Law School did not accept women until the early 1950s. 2% is about what it was back then.

Cut to RBG: What was it like to be one of 9 women in a class of 500 men? You felt like you were always on display.

#RBG

Oh my god. Oh my god this poor dude!!! This is the MY son guy!
This is from his brother apparently. Good grief.

Actually if you check the replies he and his bro seem like nice dudes.

What’s up internet? Do you know your logical fallacies? Gather round for a thread of logical fallacies loosely interpreted as Marvel Cinematic Universe characters through no scientific method other than my whims!
Straw man: misrepresenting someone’s argument in order to make it easier to attack.

Just like Hawkeye has to do.
False cause: presuming a real or perceived relationship between things means that one is the cause of the other.

Like this fabulous Hulk moment.

So, #HimToo is about men being accused of sexual assault?

Cause all survivors would just use #MeToo since “me” would cover all genders.

So people made a hashtag to make this about men who are being accused. Cool, cool, cool.
My mum once ran into Sidney Crosby at an airport and whipped out a picture of me to show him how cute I am. So, I think you could be trying harder here. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I don’t have a son, but if I did, and he was accused of sexually assaulting someone, I would look him in the eye and ask him what he had done. And he would know from my face that lying would be the worst choice he could make.
I don’t have a brother, but if I did and he was accused of sexually assaulting someone, I would call him up and say “is it true?” And he would know from my voice that lying would mean the end of our relationship.
I do have a husband, and if anyone accused him of sexually assaulting someone I’d look at him and say “tell me what happened.” And I would know if he was lying in that moment.

Hey new followers. It’s awesome to have you, but there’s been a thing that’s come up more than once in the past week that we need to talk about.

Do not embarrass me in others’ mentions.
You may notice I retweet a lot. I retweet a lot of feminists, a lot of educators, and a lot of really smart people. If you decide to respond to these retweets, please. Please.

Do. Not. Embarrass. Me.
A lot of their statements may have high emotions. This is normal given the state of our world. Do not play devil’s advocate. Do not sea lion. Do not “well but...”. Just don’t.

I never see my husband as emotional as when the Leafs are playing. It’s like a window into a whole other level of dudely feels. 😂
I shall now present you a short gif story of the last 5 mins of tonight’s game. First it was this:
