Oh my goodness, I'm so glad it wasn't the worst case scenario! How scary.

I once came out of a grocery store to find an elderly man napping in the passenger seat of my car. Wasn’t my car. I quietly closed the door and I don’t think he woke up. I did not shoot him.

I've tried to open my house with my work keys. That's about it. This is ridiculous. She was high on something, even if it was only white panic.

That’s exactly it. A black man isn’t safe from state-sanctioned murder alone in his own home. This is America.

I found it literally gut-wrenching. 

It’s bad faith...NO faith. And everyone involved knows it. It seems like the right has convinced the rest of us that they are far more stupid than they actually are, and we’re afraid to be unPC enough to say to them, “You aren’t that stupid and we both know it.”

Trump makes Nixon look like a patriot.

That's exactly what happened!

They’d just call him a master dealmaker.

I think he believes in his innocence. 

We only need 77,000 to vote differently, though.

Sheer gaslighting

Unfair comparison for overweight little people.

If one of the most accomplished, talented, charismatic black men in the world can be a decent president, then surely any white man at all can do it to, right? Like the most stupid, corrupt, incompetent men in the world? 

I think part of it was that Obama's election stunned the rest of the world and they wanted to give the US a pat on the head. They were eager to encourage us in our new identities as thoughtful global citizens. We sure showed them.

They fear that Gaia will open her Yoni and swallow them whole! And she very well may when all is said and done.

No man other than my father or a romantic partner has ever called me "sweetheart" respectfully. 

Right. The "don't ask" part was the new part.

Don’t you remember the atmosphere in 1994? The Evangelicals had an outsized amount of power, and...oh, wait. Not too different from today.

I was one of those compromise things that moved the Overtime window. Kind of like the ACA has moved it to the point that it looks today like an outdated policy.
