Maybe when they asked them to hold for the president they thought it was Obama.  To a lot of people he still is.  

Exactly. I doubt very much the email this guy received suggested tenants should get into confrontations with people they suspect are using the gym w/o authorization.

This crisis you’ve been suppressing isn’t meant to be resolved, it’s meant to be endured.

I wonder if Loughlin is hoping her jail time gets nixed due to COVID? Maybe that's the unspoken part of the deal that got her to plead.

…as a young person trying to figure out his sexual identity in the world.

With the college admission scandal situation I have to wonder if there’s a cold-blooded calculation that COVID-19 means they will get to serve out their sentences under house arrest. Honestly, not the worst move and it might be their best option. In fact, is it really any worse at that point than it is for many of us?

“I don’t want to take the whole interview to run through them.”

This is even more maddening because numerous times I have witnessed white people cursing, spitting, threatening, hitting cops, including one who pulled out his pasty little thing and wagged it at them. None of them died, few were arrested, none were beaten or tased and zero were surrounded by armed thugs with guns…

For some racist reason a lot of shitty adults decided to bully Wallis because they hated that a black child was happy and confident.

God DAMN I am tired of this “Marie Kondo is selling out!” whining. Kondo is not anti-stuff. She does not object to personal possessions. She has nothing against capitalism or the acquisition of material goods. At all.

Yes, she will call you a cunt like she did Quvenzhane Wallis who was 9 years old, or tell you to “take a dirt nap” like she did to Courtney Stodden, a minor victim of sex abuse. I wanted to like Tiegen too but I don't think she's a good person. 

What?! This movie was highly enjoyable and Tom Cruise and his wig were campy, scenery-chewing perfection. I gotta say, I’ve been visiting this site since it launched but I think I’m done. Between that ghastly “breaking quarantine for dick” article and the current writers’ insistence on writing entire articles sneering…

Amazing how in these death by shooting cases the police have gone the extra mile to get a “no knock” warrant and yet politely announce themselves at the front door anyway. Quite the gentlemen.

Shit. People who are in really good shape can have nearly no buoyancy from lack of body fat and, if they don’t concentrate on simply staying afloat, will struggle enough they become unable to do so. Worse, the water off of California is still really cold, coming down the coast from the Arctic, which is why surfers…

In that one moment (and I’m assuming it’s true, because, why wouldn’t it be), he was the parent we ALL hope we’ll be in that situation.

“Gaspard instructed the lifeguards to save his son before him, which they did.”

I thought the whole, ‘move to Spain on a lark to avoid living like spoiled Americans’ bit was going to take the cake, no matter what came next. But honestly, I don’t think I can ever move past this line:

I will also say—Trey really redeems himself (kind of) with that telegram to his mother at the negotiating table. That was aces. Finally, finally he stood up to her.

I think more people should realize that between layaway and store credit cards, for much of the time and even to this day to some extent, retail anchor chains were the only real source of reasonably-priced credit available to many low-income people and minorities. Their loss is going to hurt communities, as much as…

Raise your hand if your mom ever called J.C. Penney this: Penney’s.
