I don’t think it was in bad taste at all and I lost quite a few family members to the Holocaust. A lot of Jews hear the same rhetoric from Trump that our forebears heard from Hitler and it scares the shit out of us.

Was it in bad taste? Yes. Do we need to shock people into waking up and realizing that this kind of rhetoric isn’t ok and leads to horrific action? Also yes.

You know, my first instinct was to think he was Godwining himself. But then you read things like this:

I voted for him, begrudgingly. He wasn't going to win my state anyway and I was voting more on principle than for the candidate. I hate his fucking guts now, I wish I could take back my vote, and if he somehow by some weird Salem witch spell ended up with the nomination, you couldn't convince me that he wouldn't do…

I don’t think he’s actively trying (like Nader certainly was), I think he’s been drinking too much of his own kool aid and doesn’t have the right advisors to pull him back. But we’re fast approaching the point where it doesn’t fucking matter what his intentions are, he will be actively harming our chances in November.…

I kinda sorta get the idea that in order to reinforce the platform at the convention you don’t just wanna give up and potentially skew the delegate count.

Considering that he has exactly zero percent odds of winning the nomination, does anyone else feel that Bernie is actively trying to fuck over the Democrats at this point?

I clicked into this article just to find out who Shailene Woodley is. Funny enough, I watched the first two of those Divergent movies. Still didn’t remember who she was.

his perspective is way off; his face could not possibly be reflected in that mirror based on the angle where he’s positioned himself.

That’s a bit of an overreaction. I don’t think the comment was condescending.

Ummmm.........ok?

I have total disdain for her outfits.

The anti-choice (or to use the term I prefer, pro-forced-birth) movement, or at least a significant number of its adherents, is well aware that its rhetoric inspires unbalanced nutjobs to commit murder.

I’m getting my PhD in art history and while I’m sure that we could (and should) have a discussion about the artistic merits/demerits of Cattelan’s sculpture, I have to agree that Rachel is well within her purview to call it “creepy as fuck”. As far as I know, she doesn’t claim any status as an art critic, so her…

I do not have an academic background in art, though I do have one in literature and agree that “art” is a term to be reexamined and to which we should apply pressure. And certainly it’s important to engage with challenging, even uncomfortable material. I’m sure there will be conversations about this sculpture, and I…

“The truth is, I really do. I blame her for everything. For holding things I did when I was seven against me 25 years later, and for being skeptical of my successes under the guise of concern. This has propelled me to do better, be better. It’s just not what I deserved.”

As I said on another thread, I grew up not far from there, and I remember as kid (70s/80s) constantly hearing about how Jerry Sandusky was a brilliant D coordinator and basically head coach in waiting at PSU if Paterno left for the NFL or retired.

What’s really disturbing about the timeline is how early this began. CNN has a story involving a victim from as far back as 1972. That was after Sandusky had only spent three seasons as a PSU assistant, and Paterno had only been head coach since 1966. So there’s no excuse that they were trying to protect a prominent…

Hi. I am an appliance technician.
I feel I should add to this article and clear up some misdirection.
First yes you should clean the screens and intakes of your dishwasher it is very important that they stay open, some machines are easy for owners to do themselves. Many should be cleaned by a competent professional.
Secon…
