Inside: Deranged intersectionality, #YesAllWomen and #TooManyMen There has been a LOT of editorializing and blogging about Elliot Rodgers. I’m not much for the just-shut-up-and-listen approach.

Guess I’ll unwind with this before I get to work on some sites d’web. Hypocrites are so last season So I’ve been hearing a lot of discussion and debate about gay marriage.
