Yeah, I grew up in that era of “health food” equaling “weighs a ton and is covered with wheat germ; also carob IS TOO a viable substitute for chocolate” time as well, and man, it took a long time to quit reflexively wincing at the notion of “eating healthy.”

Millenials and gen-z don’t show up to the polls. We were spoilt for choice yet the primaries were decided by older folks. All those tweets and facebook posts amounted to nothing for Bernie Sanders. Young women barely cast a glance at Elizabeth Warren. Julian Castro never even registered. In the UK, the youth led

Thank you. I’m so over people who can’t get over themselves to do the right thing and vote for Biden. If people stood in line for hours during a pandemic during the Wisconsin primary, then you can muster about the energy to register to vote (which you can do online in most states) and request a mail in/absentee ballot

Hopefully he doesn’t spend a lot of valuable time and resources winning over a demographic that, regardless of what they claim in comment sections, or on Twitter ... barely votes, if at all.

In fact, Biden is reportedly fairing worse than Hillary Clinton with the under-40 set: His lead among 18 to 34-year-olds is narrower than Clinton’s was to President Trump during the last stretch of the 2016 election cycle.

Kellyanne: If you can stand in line for a cupcake, you can stand in line to vote

But isn’t that kind of the point-- that he did use his privilege to help a lot of people? 

Kramer’s sex-negative writings and rantings are certainly outweighed by the political activism he performed. I remember watching ACT UP members distributing condoms and chanting in front of Holy Cross in Boston right after Cardinal Law’s mass and thought, “now there’s a way to get someone’s attention.”

This, and because most idiots (pundits on TV being a prime example) think that when it comes to the economy (which they think means the stock market) the way it is right now is the way it’s going to be forever. There are going to be several big busts and then smaller echo booms over the next 3-6 months as various

It feels like Andrew being booted, Prince Philip retiring, and the Queen’s age and possible discomfort with technology have left K&W with a lot more work right now. I can't imagine QE2 ever doing Zoom video chats comfortably.

I’ve seen the listing. It really is a beautiful home. It’s a shame the owners are shitty people. 

I don’t live near casinos and the Connecticut gold coast for nothing!

He knows his place. He’s another carnival barker. If he doesn’t keep pimping the rigged games, he’s out on his ass.

Not wrong at all. Her attorneys negotiated one sweetheart of a deal and earned every penny of their fees. It depends on whether the judge okays it, of course.

That looks like the kind of crappy conference center where you’re stuck inside all day, bored to tears, can only intermittently heard the speaker, and the provided lunch is half a subway sandwich with extra sad lettuce and tomato, and your choice of mayo or mustard packet with off brand beverages too weird even for

Iran is also buying their way into Venezuela with tankers of gasoline, so we’ve got that going on...

Yeah, I’m going to have to say that, on his own terms, Kernan is simply incorrect. The stock market is doing well not so much because COVID-19 isn’t a crisis (it very much is), but because there’s no other good places for investors to sink their money into at the moment. Interest rates on bonds are near zero, nobody’s

I wish these people who spend all their time complaining about how COVID “isn’t really all that bad” would voluntarily inject themselves with the virus to prove that we’re all being a bunch of big babies once and for all.

You are not wrong. Actually, agreeing to a plea deal during a pandemic is the first intelligent move these two have made in this entire debacle. Which tells me their lawyers got them to finally see the light. Not only is the public’s attention focused on more pressing matters, but it is highly unlikely either of them

I hope I’m wrong, but cynical me says the only reason the Target Mossimos finally accepted a plea deal is that they know given COVID19 they will likely get house arrest, probation and community service instead of jail time. I will be genuinely shocked if they actually spend any time in jail.
