Correction! Apologies to Krysten Sinema, and thanks to ackacked. Sharp eyeballs!

We think this is cool. That’s all.

We wouldn’t necessarily word it like this…but it’s Friday.

It’s not a crime that Vito Lopez harassed and molested employees and retaliated against them when they refused his sexual advances.

It’s not a crime that Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver covered up Vito’s attacks and made secret payments to the accusers with taxpayer money to shut them up.

It’s not a crime that state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman closed his eyes to the hush-money payoff.

It’s not a crime that state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli signed off on the payments without raising a single objection.

Glad that’s cleared up.

“Katniss is very skinny… How much do you weigh?

I am so fucking happy that female celebrities are starting to call interviewers out on their bullshit.

We are too.

Hey, it’s graduation time! Who’s excited for commencement, grad parties, and a gender pay gap?

Yeah, we’re not big fans of that last one, either.

One year out of college, women already make less than their male peers, even after accounting for things like occupation, college major, and hours worked.

Not exactly the graduation present we wanted for women.

Help spread the word about the pay gap! Reblog this post or pick your favorite card and send it along to lady grads everywhere.

“I wish people wouldn’t just see me as the Asian girl who beats everyone up, or the Asian girl with no emotion. People see Julia Roberts or Sandra Bullock in a romantic comedy, but not me. You add race to it, and it became, ‘Well, she’s too Asian’, or, ‘She’s too American’. I kind of got pushed out of both categories. It’s a very strange place to be. You’re not Asian enough and then you’re not American enough, so it gets really frustrating.”

Today in manufacturing, there is an untenable lack of skilled workers throughout manufacturing and, unlike the end of WWII, manufacturers are keenly seeking women to fill the gap.
