Ah, the good old withdrawal method. I’d like to introduce you to my secondborn son, my living proof of just how effective that method can be.

How is it going to work that his kids get security clearance when they’re running his businesses? There’s supposed to be a firewall there.

Quality Italian

Teens know. They can smell authoritarianism and they’re naturally averse to it.

Daddy Trump wants his kids and son-in-law to get top security clearance. This is NOT a joke. They’re gonna run America like a Mob family business. I wonder how long it will be before they try to get clearance for Alex Jones.

Ahem, Paula pursuing her dream that maybe this time won’t be awful is very important to me! (They also spoiled a much more major plot on Jane the Virgin)

Santino wasn’t well liked on set which sucks because I think he’s incredibly talented and really liked his character so I was hoping for growth there but the way it was set up from the beginning of this season I knew he had to be leaving. I just really hope the whole Josh thing is over and done with because I’m so…

Yeah you buried the real horror in Greg being gone gone.

This perfectly encapsulates my reaction too :(

I loved how both characters also had different motivations for terminating unwanted pregnancies. Xo had already decided she didn’t want to have more kids prior to getting pregnant, Paula at first saw the pregnancy as a “sign” that she shouldn’t pursue her dreams, but then decided to make her own future and happiness a…

This reminds me of those old mid century ads that would have something like “WARNING: THIS PRODUCT MAY CAUSE MISCARRIAGE, DO NOT USE IF PREGNANT” on there...

I like how it says what it does without saying what it does and without lying.

I’m a blue eyed, light skinned formerly illegal immigrant Mexican man, born into a mostly brown family. So while I live in a nice safe societal bubble (what with my white wife, my home ownership in the suburbs, my son, and my dog) and have never really suffered any indignities, in fact I’d go so far as to say I have…

We are in fucking Trumpistan now and we had better start taking care of each other as best we can.

White people who aren’t total assholes need to confront this shit when it happens. 

Fuck, dude. Great writing, shitty situation.

I heard some brief interview with a women and she just owned it “I’m a black person in America, I always have to be the bigger one!”

You can try civility first but it’s pretty hard to challenge blind ignorance and hate with a collected discussion. No white folk saying “why yes I’ll concede I would probably be that upset if my neighbor was shot in the street for no reason other than getting out of his car, salient point.” Get real. Be ready to take…

OK, but that doesn’t really answer the question of how you’re keeping it together. Lots of people woke up, ate breakfast, and went to fucking work, but did it with a ball of fear in the pit of their stomach. If you aren’t terrified of Trump enacting the policies the campaigned on because they won’t really affect you,…

I left a journalism career about four years ago for a white-collar desk job because the writing career wasn’t going anywhere, and as time passed I found that I couldn’t really write anything worthwhile anymore; it was if that part of my brain had atrophied. (Even my comments suck.)
