Even Suzanne Collins had to come out and school people that - yes - Rue was meant to be black.

The problem is that Kylie and other members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan do this type of stuff all the time and the media goes wild acting as though they are the first people in the history of existence to do anything like this. We have a Kardashian-Jenner-obsessed media and everyone in that family knows it.

I read Michiko Kakutani’s review in the NYT on Friday and I admit it nearly put me off reading it. I think I’ll still read it just for context’s sake, but I’m really worried it will ruin TKAM for me.

I was thinking serial killer, but I think you’ve solved it:

Frankly he looks like a serial killer. You know - the “quiet type” who was always looked and acted “nice” but had the cold, dark heart of a raging sociopath inside.

That makes sense. On Twitter, it is very hard to fit any kind of discourse in 140 characters - often times it has to go on many tweets and is hard to follow along unless you do TwitLonger.

Exactly! It took Hannibal Burress’ rants against Cosby for these rape accusations to get fresh life and it took Cosby’s own admittance of drugging women to get CAA and idiots like Jill Scott to back off supporting Cosby and admit they were wrong. They didn’t believe 48 women who had nearly identical stories but when…

It should have started a long time ago but the recent deposition revelations FINALLY forced people to wake up. Just ridiculously sad that they didn’t believe the women and it took Cosby’s own words for them to say “Holy Shit! The Women were right!”

And the leader of the Ma Ba Tha is a real piece of work - calling for extermination of Muslims, calling female Mynamar leaders “bitches.” Real gem of a guy.

I know. There are even atheist churches now - atheism has become its own religion. There is a faction of atheism that contains some of the biggest jackasses who insist on their moral superiority while being every bit as racist/sexist/homophobic at times as their religious counterparts they love to criticize.

Same here, I’ll give him time considering people need to grow into their jobs. Larry Wilmore is still getting the hang of hosting The Nightly Show and he’s been doing it for seven months.

This is what I had to do. Even though I grew up around guns (lots of hunters on my dad’s side of the family) and nearly all my relatives have guns, I still took a crapload full of classes when I got my pistol permit. I still try and go at least twice-three times a week for training.

So the women’s World Cup team which has been 100x more successful than any men’s World Cup team in the past 20 years gets paid less? And it sounds like it’s not even a tad amount - it’s a huge margin. Disgusting beyond belief.

I live in NY and there are people here who fly the Confederate flag (no joke). I always wanted to go up to them and ask them what they are doing in NY if they love the South so much but I’m allergic to stupidity so I don’t bother.

You would think these asswipes would have access to a dictionary but I guess that comes under them not wanting any of them there dang “liberal” dictionaries in their house(s).

A lot of the commentators are saying that Ellis probably would have stuck with her game plan from the first three games if Rapinoe and Holiday hadn’t gotten those two yellow cards and she was forced to tinker with the lineup. Rapinoe and Holiday not playing the game against China is when the U.S. team changed Carli…

I know, I was hoping someone at the other end was holding her in case she toppled over.

I agree with this. There are a lot of dads who would love to spend time with their newborns as well.

That must be the reason why I have always had problems with Burt’s Bees products. Every single product of theirs - down to the lip balm - makes me break out. The man sounds like a decent chap, but Burt’s Bees products have always bad for my skin.

I’d give you money to do that.
