Right and marijuana was probably used ceremonially throughout the cradle of civilization, but it’s not like people were sitting around Nazareth hitting bongs.

I’d never thought of it that way but yeah

Like Jesus wouldn’t be the biggest fucking stoner you ever met if recreational marijuana had been available in first century Judea.

People just don’t like her. And when she tries to be more likable, it gets worse. I respect and admire her, and proudly voted for her, but many many Americans just can’t get past the fact that they fundamentally don’t like or trust her. Liberals and conservatives.

Right?

My grandmother lit her beehive on fire with a cigarette in about 1965 at a cocktail party. My grandfather had to sprint across the room, tackle her, and beat out the flames.

Or The Great Gatsby isn’t about class in America. Like, that’s what the book is about bb.

If I can’t laugh at that, I don’t want to be part of the solution.

I live in a college town in a largely rural, Republican state 500 miles from the nearest ocean. It has a lot of wonderful things about it, but I viscerally need to leave. I’ve been to the three art galleries, five good restaurants, one museum, and “summer arts and culture festival” a million times each. I understand…

Creepy gross old men seem to be fond of cream/milk/dairy comparisons for young, pale women’s skin.

So we have to go live in shitty places with people who hate us to save the country from itself?

It’s unfortunate, that race got off on a bad foot with all of Walsh’s base corruption and lying. He was a shitty candidate that made the dems look terrible. And Amanda Curtis had no name recognition whatsoever. It was a shit show.

She was a great candidate. But Native American and out LGBT are just insurmountable obstacles to a candidate running in, say, Wheatland County in this day and age. I wish that weren’t the case but here we are.

I get that, but Quist is a viable candidate, which the last few dems to run for congressional office in Montana weren’t. I’m a politically active and involved person and I cannot remember the name of the lady who ran against Daines, and Denise Juneau is a Native American lesbian.Which is of course wonderful and…

I really don’t think he is. I think most of the people who say he’s a shoo-in are “coastal political media elites”, to borrow terminology from the opposition, who see us as a homogenous red mass. Montana is a very unique and complex state politically. It’s progressive in the turn-of-the-century sense, independent…

I live in Montana and people here absolutely hate him. His failed bid for the governorship was embarrassing to the entire state.

no.

Ah the sweet simplicity of 80s-90s moral panics.

I thought everyone who isn’t a Jew is a Gentile. Have I been wrong this whole time?

New fucking furniture.
