Also a lot of the stuff out there was women saying he just blocked the exit and wouldn’t let them through so I guess we’ll maybe hear now that it’s coming out in the open how exactly “consensual” it was...

I have a crazy neighbour who vandalises and steals things (well has her son do it) in other people’s yards she doesn’t like. We all know she’s doing it but no one has proof. If she wasn’t a lady in her 70s I’m pretty sure someone would have punched her by now.

Apparently they used to work together and haven’t talked in years so maybe there is some crazy stuff in the past and mowing the lawn at 5am was just the straw that broke the camels back.

Unfortunately the DNC (And politicians in general) are so tied up with their corporate donors unless we can somehow push legislation to get rid of the lobbyists and corporate money they are never going to really help the poor and middle class again.

I read the books years ago and don’t even remember him! (I did skip whole sections I didn’t like though, maybe this was one?!) I might need to look up a description.

Just my opinion (and seemingly in the minority) but I haven’t liked Ewan McGregor for years now. He often has a condescending manner to him, something just rubs me the wrong way. (I felt the same way about Lance Armstrong as far back as 1998, when it was a minority opinion too!)

Triangulation is a load of shit. (In my opinion.)

Even before that came out, on a local level during the primary the shady stuff the Dems did to try to sabotage Bernie’s local campaigns made a lot of people I know SO ANGRY - I don’t know if the Dems will ever win the full support of some people back. They were really stupid thinking they could treat people who’d been…

They also all go on and make huge money as lobbyist after their political careers. Who are they going to work to please if they want a big paying job after their political career? Many move back and forth between politics and lobbying for big corps like they are the same thing. Laws need to be made about this stuff.

They are so tied up with lobbyists and involved (personally and politically) with money from banks and corps that it’s caused them to have a very skewed view and they can’t see any way forward without them. Unless people on the ground push harder for real campaign finance reform across all the parties I don’t know if…

I know, fuck that right? Just because “That’s always how it’s been...” doesn’t mean it’s OKAY.

Yes it’s a state school (at least it used to be when I lived in Ohio.)

CSU is a state school so I think it’s not as cut and dry as this cartoon. Legally, I think it’s been argued before, that state schools are part of the government so are bound by the 1st amendment.

It’s actually an interesting (and argued) point! Using “infer” to mean “transmit information” has a long and respectable history (documented to at least the 1500s) and is still normally considered acceptable in casual writing or conversation. It is not used in academic writing (because in the 20th century the academic…

THIS I was like “Who would do this, and also why wouldn’t people around them say WTF?!” The people I was around 10 years ago (heck even 20 years ago) would have called someone out. I remember people getting publicly called out for using words that seem less offensive than this. (But they were still offensive and…

I seem to have a recollection of someone on a podcast telling a story about Jeanine Garafalo trying to introduce another friend to David Cross as she thought they could be friends and him being a complete a-hole to the person? Maybe I am wrong. I will try to figure out which podcast it was and when. Anyone else…

He’s inferring maybe it’s not true. He wants to plant that seed in people’s minds.

Saying they can’t remember or calling you a liar is most people’s automatic reaction when being called out for past bad behaviour. It’s VERY rare someone says “Oh yeah, I was a real piece of shit and treated you horribly.”

I agree, it’s amazing that people leave their kids in these situations. As a parent myself I do see that people are conditioned to think they are being “over protective” and paranoid if they worry about this kind of stuff. I personally vowed that I’d always go with my gut about stuff like this and not let myself or…

We have been on that train trip and also have watched the train go over the famous bridge in the movie while out walking. My kids got pretty bored for both ha ha. Growing up in Scotland they don’t really appreciate the beautiful scenery or castles. I grew up in Ohio, I keep telling them how lucky they are and they…
