I don't know anything about his political history and can not speak to his being like Trump or not, but obviously Trump-like leaders of separate countries are going to butt heads constantly, possibly in escalating ways, and pointing this out as a problem doesn't make either party a good guy.

¡Porque es mi idea secreta!…o, fue, antes de su la arruina

If you find a way to convince Trump supporters of something based on its factuality, forget the wall being ineffective or unfeasible. Instead, try to convince them that ISIS poses almost no danger to people inside the US, and that immigrants aren't disproportionately committing other crimes. Because that might…

Public education's genesis is more recent than that isn't it, like in the middle of colonialism or something? Also, the working class does include a lot of those women and racial minorities previously mentioned as not voting for him.

Would you believe…18 billion?

Show Me a Hero is coincidentally a great show about the Trump phenomenon despite being about different real events on a smaller scale. People get progressively angrier at a stream of cynical politicians not doing the awful things they legally can't do, morally shouldn't do, personally have no real stake in doing, but…

I hadn't seen analysis of that earlier fence project before either. How the hell do you decide it's necessary to allow a project like this to circumvent the clean water act of all things?

All i knew about those was the result of a short news piece somewhere else about a couple of residents in a mostly-commercial area fouling up one of these attempts at turn-key voter services for this purpose. The Oliver piece was definitely my single biggest source of special district knowledge at the time i saw it,…

It was also unpleasant and rarely edifying to watch imo.

The good news is that it looks like not all of that 1/4 of the country is actually like this all the time. That a significant amount of them only react like this to a fear of perceived threats, which is admittedly still a real bad way to behave, but brings the hope that they might not behave that way all the time.

I totally bought it as something that stroked her ego both because someone was hitting on her, and because it played into her facile self-concept as someone "wild" and "edgy," as though sexuality is just a reflection of how cool she is rather than some deeply-felt, personal thing. And then she can't quite psych…

I think it also would have been even with two women if it had actually been successful. It definitely was really uncomfortable even as-is, especially because i'm pretty sure Hannah's objection was less about the sauna and more a dawning realization that maybe she's not as cool with this hook-up as she assumed she…

I think i gotta give it to Togetherness this season (that said i gave up on it after 202 or 3).

It's also tough to give her credit for being serious about a career path (which i'm assuming she is at the moment even if she eventually falters) when it's such a bad idea for her to enter that field. It's possible for me imagine Jessa being/becoming a good person, but the idea of her being a good therapist is just a…

I don't think there's any possible way the entire relationship was just in service of getting that cash. On the other hand, i think it's very possible that inviting Adam to that meeting was partially about that, since she has to have a pretty good idea of how it's going to go with the sister, and that's not something…

It is kind of hard to tell if Shosh is genuinely happy or just looks like it because she's so high-energy.

Is it wrong that i was more turned on by her in the cat cafe?

I didn't know this was a season finale going in, so that aspect didn't bother me in the moment. I was still a bit irked by the Saw segments though. Those were a real stretch, even by weird VB standards, and in the end it seemed like their only point was to show that, surprise, Gary hasn't killed these people. Except…

From the perspective of a small, outmatched band of emus i assume.

"You can imagine where it goes from here"
"He fights the Persians?"
