a) if sandra was able to ingest marijuana in any way while in jail, the police did a shitty ass job.

While Bland’s postmortem THC levels are certainly relevant to the ongoing investigation into her death

Obviously she didn’t use marijuana in jail, but let’s say for the sake of the argument she did, doesn’t that just further highlight the gross negligence and general ineffectiveness and incompetence of the Wallace County police department?*

“It was mostly republished by right-of-center publications like the New York Post and Fox News, with little interest from the liberal media”

My first edible came after the turn of legalization and after I began smoking more frequently. I thought that I could handle a bigger dose, I couldn’t. I freaked out for like 10 minutes after it really kicked in then I forced myself to sleep. Nothing happened other than a really nice nap.

Someone solved the No-Star Wars. Click off to the side of the star. And,

I actually think some people are afraid to step outside of their little bubble. They’re comfortable with their preconceptions and assumptions and it makes them deeply uncomfortable when these things are challenged. That’s why there’s so much push back when they feel that they are being forced to acknowledge the…

I agree with you in spirit, but not in method. The “protected class” system the SCOTUS thought up is bizarre and hard to work, which I think is one of the reasons they have avoided using it for LGBT folks. We need to end corporate personhood and the idea that companies, not just individuals, have First Amendment…

Exactly. Why, why, why are we filling up our jail cells with people who commit nonviolent drug offenses, while creeps like these can get away menacing others without any sort of meaningful punishment. I mean come the fuck on.

So Louisianna passed a law that they could use public money for religious education until Muslim schools applied and then they freaked out! This is for me and NOT for thee they screeched!

I mean yeah, there’s the KKK and they suck. But hey, you guys have the Harlem Children’s Zone!

It’s frustrating when you can’t pass a David Brooks. Try a laxative.

David Brooks wrote a typically clueless column about Ta-Nehisi Coates’ new book. The book is written as a letter to his son, so David Brooks thought it would be cute to also style his column that way. If you’ve ever read any of Coates’ work, he’s pretty unsparing in his observations about race and white supremacy in…

The more I think about Brooks’ column the angrier I get. I hope it sets of a firestorm of fury and he gets booted from the Times and his weekly perch at NPR and PBS. It is bad enough that he flaunts his privilege to try to silence a black man’s pain (on the anniversary of Eric Garner’s death!!) but the whole essay is…

“hey, guys, what’s the exact opposite of the Ku Klux Klan?

Reading Brooks’ original fuckery, my brain was completely overtaken with White Opinions memes

So does this mean we can start discriminating against Conservative Christians? I’d just need to join the Satanic Church or something, right? Also, aren’t these same assholes the ones with rage boners over the possibility of Sharia Law taking over? Wouldn’t this bill just pave the way for that? Yes, you and I both know…

Perhaps the Satanic Temple will use this as an opportunity for some more wonderful trolling. The more the Republicans double down on ridiculous things like this, the more inclined I am to become a card-carrying Satanist.

That’s okay, you can fire unwed mothers if we can fire creepy baby-obsessed Christians.
