Today's a tough day for women (this one, at least) visiting DU--the Hegseth spectacle, an Eagles fan filmed raging

and spewing the c-word at a female fan who had the nerve to be seated near him, the knowledge that Shittler has gleefully nominated a whole posse of "locker room talk" boys to assist his overturn of democratic norms. Heard it described as revenge for the "Me Too" movement. And of course, Shitler about to be sworn in, again(!), chosen over an outstanding candidate who, apparently unforgivably, lacked a penis. So-- yeah.

The good news about the Eagles fan who singled out the woman calling her an ugly dumb C word …he’s been outed. The Eagles organization has banned him from the stadium and now his employer is involved. The Eagles management also sent the woman a bunch of Packers gear and publicly apologized to her.

I, like you, feel deeply afraid and worried for women and other marginalized people.
