Here is what Trump’s jock riders will say:  The payments for the death of a story doesn’t necessarily mean the story is true.  As implausible as money for a non-story seems, it’ll be enough for his rabid followers.  They’re not looking for the truth; they’re looking for plausible deniability.

I’m sorry. I am very fortunate and have an amazing relationship with my dad and our political views line up. I currently live at home because I’m unemployed and so we have multiple intellectual and political discussions a day. We also have multiple interactions that involve us coming up to each other with our phones…

Did a pantyliner write this?

Exactly.  Those “media outlets” only exist because there’s a large appetite for the shit they’re pushing.  Telling people what they want to hear isn’t the same as brainwashing.  

The best criminals earn your trust first and then BAM! You’re a marinara meatball short and don’t know why.

You put your dress under your butt as you sit down. To be honest, I’m not a person who ever goes commando but I also want as many layers between me and a public seat as possible. So when I go to sit I just gently run my hand from my lower back to under my butt so I can make sure the whole area is covered in a dress…

Let’s consider this-they WANT confirmation bias for their racism. These news outlets didn’t make them racist. They just exploit their racism for money and power. End of story. Stop making excuses.

HEY. I’m also divorced and can’t sleep next to anybody. Wanna make out, then go to separate beds with the fan on and AC blasting?

Oh, that’s been going on for as long as black people have been “free”. Keep in mind that none of those outlets are being forced into households. People are seeking them out and agreeing with the nonsense.

Honestly, as someone who basically never wears underwear and has spent years having friends question this (thus spawning spirited discussions), I’ve come to the conclusion that the biggest factor here is the type of vulva you have. Like, the shape.

I haven’t been sleeping well lately for several reasons, one of which is being too damned hot. Y’think being bare down there will help?

Or you need better roommates.

then suddenly become the black Ocean’s Eleven

I said this in the thread about the congresswoman who was campaigning; it’s already insulting that they think we’re stealing, but it’s more insulting that they think we’re such bad fucking thieves.

THEY PAID FOR THEIR FOOD.

Listen, I’m with you and that sounds like an amazing tradition, but I think the message is that people need to be more sensitive and responsible about fireworks. I’m of the mind that if people express a reasonable discomfort and it doesn’t hurt anyone else to abide by it, you should respect that discomfort. Don’t set…

I can see your point, but it actually sounds like Seltzer believes that this case establishes some form of legal precedent, which is a real thing. If this case is seen as precedent, then it can be used in future, similar cases to help establish how those cases go forward. So if another author has a similar lawsuit,…

Then there’s this gloriousness (from apparently 2 years ago, is anyone surprised this guy has a history of misogyny?):

I just figured it was part of the usual racist/privileged script. Any place where POC are unwanted suddenly becomes the property of the person who wants them out - we hear my street, my building, my park, my neighborhood, my town/city, my country, etc. all the time.

I came into this comment section to post Erasure’s cover of said song. Lustful, indeed!
