Going to play Devil’s advocate here: I grew up in SE Ohio where the opioid/heroin problem is arguably worse. The small towns where these terrible situations take hold do not have the same manpower or financial resources the larger cities have to address the myriad issues that opioid abuse creates. This may be the only…

It’s worse than that. I think the cops are trying to say “Look at what we deal with every day, aren’t we heroes? Don’t you feel bad for us?” They are using a child’s circumstance to elevate themselves, that is highly cynical.

It has always bugged the shit out of me that these cops stopped to take a picture instead of fucking helping them instantly. INSTANTLY. That child should have INSTANTLY been removed from that car and that situation and his grandparents should have been INSTANTLY assessed for overdose. Why in the fuck did they take…

A woman with pneumonia collapsed while she was working and continues to work? Sounds normal.

When asked why she didn’t discuss her pneumonia diagnosis until after it became abundantly necessary to do so, she said she “didn’t think it was going to be that big a deal.”

In case you thought Tim Kaine couldn’t be any more of a dad.

He does have a moral compass. It’s just that it always points to “women are lying whores.”

In a separate universe where “strong moral compass” actually means psychopath, then sure.

Must be nice to say “no” and have the person actually stop

But Parker himself didn’t say stop so, by his own logic, not only should the journalist kept going, he should have invited two other journalists into the room to keep asking the same question.

I would like to take a moment to pay tribute to my father, Marine Corp Colonel Samuel Tillett for his courageous and near fatal actions, attempting to save as many lives as possible 15 years ago today in his position as head of security at The Pentagon. When the plane hit my father was not but a hundred feet from the…

Right? I remember these same people saying that Trump was “telling it like it is” and being “politically incorrect” when he made even more horrific comments about a large share of the population. Were Hillary’s comments politically incorrect? Definitely. But if you’re the kind of person who is comfortable with…

I don’t think it was shade only because she had already come out and called them deplorable and now she’s just walking it back a bit about exactly how many of them.

She had a great followup to one of the mouthbreathers:

Thank you for sharing that! She absolutely hit the nail on the head - if someone isn’t a racist assbag, why be mad at Hillary for calling out the racist assbags?

But...she never said “half.” And she's also not wrong.

Maybe I missed it, but did she actually say half? She said you could divide them into two baskets, but that doesn’t make them equal (being super pedantic here, I realize).

Ok, I am admittedly really really really bad at this, but I need a ruling. Her follow-up (the full one, not what’s written above) is shade, no?

“I regret saying ‘half’—that was wrong,” Clinton said.
