I just hope it’s exposed before Bibi drags us into a war with Iran.

I just hope that the literally unholy alliance between right wing, fascist Israelis (Netanyahu et al) and right wing, fascist Christian nationalists (the US Republican Party) is finally being exposed for the evil nightmare it is.

I always felt that women, minorities, and LGBTQ people that support the current GOP must think like Samuel L Jackson’s character in Django Unchained.

FUCKING THIS

I can’t fucking mention the sheer amount of times I’ve had microaaggressive racists in the SE - FL and GA to be specific - tell me that they’re surprised I was so progressive ....because I’m so well-spoken and accomplished and educated.

Oh, and Black. As if thinking critically and speaking your mother

IIRC you just have to reside in the state, not the district itself. But I agree that it’s stupid, you should be required to live in the district.

Face it, at some point Kanye is going to get into a feud with his reflection in a mirror.

Yeah, yeah, it’s all funny and ‘ironic’ until he’s in prison garb. Then how funny will this all be? Then he’ll be screaming about wrongful imprisonment, unfair legal system, etc etc, and it will so f’ing annoying. I hate this guy. I hate all these people. I hate the loss of any sort of respect, dignity, decorum,

I think Barry just runs around the country side at super speed picking up loose change...

I bailed around season 5, but I love how the show never once tried to explain how any of Team Flash earn enough money to keep Star Labs running. Barry and Iris apparently way overpaid in their CSI/journo jobs they can sustain a high tech lab, and two fulltime friends-staff. Or that anyone in the city said "hey,

Are they ever going to fix the roof of the lab?

Which, if I recall correctly, the Bible frowns upon. I can’t be bothered to look up book/verse, but I seem to recall something about praying in private.

But by doing it in private, he doesn’t get to make a spectacle of his righteousness and piety.

This whole case was so dumb too. All he had to do was not call it a prayer and not do it on the 50 yard line. Invite the team for 2 minutes of quiet reflection. Do it in the locker room. Get a coaching job at one of the MANY Christian schools in the area. 

Get ready for “freedom of religion, not freedom from religion” to make it into a Supreme Court decision, followed closely by “the founding fathers were Christian, so clearly religious freedom only applies to Christians.” I look forward to being thrown in jail in the future for my lack of religious belief. 

Journalists are failing this country and our democracy. The framing by Rolling Stone is completely irresponsible. Simply parroting what you have been told by officials is not reporting. That is PR.

As a Maine resident, all I can say is, sorry, I did what I could.

Actually the Joker didn't need to be in the movie at all. And they really could have trimmed an hour off of that thing just with some editing. Every single shot doesn't need to be a long pan of Batman looking Batman-y (though he does look good in this film). But this really should have just been Riddler's story.

I don’t understand why “Boaty McBoatface” is the de facto standard of terrible collective decisions. It’s a great fucking name!
