Class act…

Said something boneheaded a while back…actually apologized for the act of saying it, not the the fact that someone heard it.

Now, putting his money where his mouth is.

Thank you.

I’m feeling verklempt at this lovely gesture. Next to the plate, maybe, Marc Benioff who also knows to right an injustice?

Mr. and Mrs. Snicket are lovely people, so their gesture is unsurprising but inspiring. And look at the supportive, positive nature of the comments on this story. I love TPM.

Bravo! Hope this can help PP rise from a series of VERY unfortunate events…like GOP circuses.

I hope some other well off individuals do the same . Maybe a crowdfunding of PP just so we can thumb our noses at the idjits that can’t seem to grasp that birth control reduces abortions

I read every single Series of Unfortunate Events out loud to my daughter when she was small. Now, she is a young woman, and the writer who entertained us night after night is standing up for women’s healthcare. Good move, Snicket!

The watermelon comment sounds like a bad joke, yet one that probably went over poorly because he’s white and said it in public.
In any event, this more than makes up for it, many times over.

Nice to know that there are very wealthy people who are willing to make a statement like this is support for an organization that has helped millions of women and families, and has become the target of vicious untruths and hate.

Watching Richards v Chaffetz, I just thought: Good v. Evil.
