I WANT TO BE ON THAT SPACESHIP FOR THE DANCE PARTY!!! YYYYEEEESSS!!!!

Sure it does. Welcome, Contempt.

“For this to get done, that language just may have to go away,” Sen. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) told the Charlotte Observer.

Dying word: “Woolite ...”

the West Deptford GOP said their candidates ... those who wish to be counted as human ... shouldn’t wish rape upon people.

But, any species that would spend the time, effort and resources needed to travel countless billions of miles would be explorers by their nature. Explorers are out there to see and learn everything they can. To make those connections in spite of the risks. You don’t invest in something like a small moon-sized ship and…

I’m sure most people would not want to do anything as stupid as shooting at obviously superior aliens coming to Earth. But a violent reaction would be nearly certain. Look at how we deal with our own species. Large collections of the Earth’s people are willing to kill some/all others for reasons like; They wear funny…

In general it seems today people are willing to take a ‘conviction’ to have the same weight as scientifically backed evidence. And American culture has always had an anti-intellectual streak. It wasn’t until the 1950s that people really got the point that ‘germ theory’ wasn’t just another wacky idea from France -…

True. For businesses run by sain, rational humans, reputation matters. The Trump businesses got off that bus a looooong way back.

Why is anyone even sort of surprised at this point?

A thing of beauty all around! Way to go world. She’s a bad-ass and gets the respect she deserves.

Nice. A reasoned collection of statements that makes logical connections between available facts. Ah!! So that’s why racism has power. No need to do the work of putting facts together. Totally avoids all that frontal-lobe heavy lifting.

Hate loves specificity. That’s why getting the labels right is so very important to racists. More ‘clarity’ in labeling allows the racist to know how to interpret and react based on the label. Totally gets all that messy ‘thinking’ out of the way.

Hey! I’m from Waterbury! Yeah, it’s true unfortunately. There’s lots of drug traffic there (but that wing nut from Maine is still a turd). I dream of what that city could become. There was serious money there once but that ended in the 1970s when the factories started folding. Now corruption and blight just keep…

Na. Just herd mentality - Do whatever the person next to you does, no thinking required.

I am awarding you all of the internets (with cats) for the rest of eternity. Stunning work OP!

No research needed. Just have the characters do anything that degrades and abuses the target. It’s why they never cease to astonish us. Because the constant drumbeat in their back brains says only, demolish everything that is not exactly me.

The gaming industry in Las Vegas figured out how to get around all those pesky anti-discrimination and labor laws long ago. Casino cocktail waitresses are hired as entertainers, not employees. It allows the company to require a ‘certain look’ for the ‘role’. Wonder if the restaurant industry will ever try to make that…

I worked in a McDonalds in the 80s and the common practice was: Boys in the back on the grills. Girls in the front so they can be seen. It was a given.
