TIRED: "Cis men don't know where the clitoris is."
WIRED: "The clitoris isn't hard to find. A lot of cis men just don't care about their sexual partner's pleasure, and society lets them off the hook by making cis women's bodies into mysterious, impossible puzzles."

Remember when I said this over a year ago and it was treated as a highly controversial statement

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Allowing the Trump administration to have control of such critical data is potentially dangerous for America and horrible for transparency.

Trump officially withdrew the United States from the World Health Organization in the middle of a global health crisis.

I can imagine no other president in my lifetime failing to address the nation in a prime time speech during a crisis such as this. On the other hand, I cannot imagine another president whose words would be less welcome by so many of his fellow citizens.

I’m logging off. The amount of hoods being pulled off of people heads is amazing. People get more mad at a 15 yard penalty or technical foul than human life being taken by people who are supposed to PROTECT AND SERVE. #BlackLivesMatter

After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence? ‘When the looting starts the shooting starts’??? We will vote you out in November. @realdonaldtrump
