I just stopped by to say that David Brooks sucks and I hate him.

Fifty Shades of White?

All of them. 

I’d say someone can be obsessed with/fixated on something without loving it. I knew a guy who was obsessed with the Kennedy assassination, not because he loved the events that occurred, but because he wanted to know all the details about the controversies and conspiracy theories surrounding it. “Infatuation” could…

Where I live, in Oregon but not Portland, there are not a lot of visible big-time corporate players. Lots and lots (and lots and lots) of mom and pop type operations. I do not know a whole lot about the supply chain although all the dispensaries I like the most can at least tell me where their stuff comes from, and…

My most politically active, engaged, “woke” friends are the ones MOST aggressively trying to take out candidates that, for whatever reason, they don’t like. I have one friend in particular who has a poisonous hatred for Buttigieg and posts really over the top diatribes and links about him, which his thousands…

I think of “infatuation” as being more or less synonymous with obsession, but infatuation has an extra ring of emotion, immaturity or irrationality in my mind. I think other people may have similar connotations for the word. So I actually can see an implication of a threat. “Infatuated” is a word I might use to…

—between two ferns.

Am I the only one that has no real problem with a candidate lacking policy specifics in April 2019?

I was honestly under the impression that Boosler died some many decades ago. So, good to know she’s not dead, I guess?

It all fits my stereotype of a McKinsey consultant. While I have no real feelings on Pete at this point. I definitely have feelings for McKinsey consultants. They are not good feelings.

It’s also just as likely that some overworked staff writer, under pressure to make Conan funny, subconsciously or deliberately lifted a joke from a Twitter feed and passed it off to Conan as their own. It’s Twitter. Joke was probably stolen in the first place. 

You know, the three jokes you gave as examples are kind of generic, “late-night monologue” jokes that anyone could have come up with, so it wouldn’t be out of the ordinary if Coco (and his writers) and the gentleman in question wrote similar jokes. Just sayin’.

Let’s be real, you and I know goddamn well that if the Great Mosque at Mecca needed rebuilding Dolt 45 woudn’t be pledging a fucking thing for it unless the Saudis told Jared Kushner to procure the funds.

Ah yes, you’re glad a building literally representing the rape, enslavement, and devastation of millions of Africans and Indigenous people not including the sexual abuse of children and women gets more tears and sympathy than the hundreds if not possibly thousand or more who died recently at Idai, those being…

Notre Dame isn’t a motherfucking tragedy. What the fuck is wrong with you?

“assistance in the rehabilitation of this irreplaceable symbol of Western civilization.”

Way more than 3,000 were killed. The gov’t refused to even acknowledge people were dying in droves while entire ICUs in hospitals lost power and morgues literally overflowed. And most definitely fuck Nestlé for what they’re doing to the people of Flint. That said, not surprised by Diet Underwood. He loves glorifying…

I recognize that this is somewhat fucked-up thinking, but sometimes I wonder if you don’t hear about certain people because there simply is not enthusiasm about them. Like, those certain people just aren’t doing or proposing anything that is the right combination of flashy, boundary-pushing, and realistic. I…

He rides a bike when he’s on tour too! Last time he was on tour here he rolled up next to my boyfriend at the traffic lights, and later came in to one of our local watering holes with his helmet. Can confirm that he’s a delightful human.
