Trump has already made it clear that he is not the President of all of us, our nation, he is sheerly there to be President for his "base" alone, the morons and deplorables. The other 70 percent of Americans don't even count. What a brilliant strategy. He could be expansive, inclusive and broad, like we have grown…

Lovely interview with Glenn Greenwald at Slate. The interviewer points out that the Russian state can be quite malevolent towards dissidents, carrying out assassinations on foreign soil. Greenwald's response: "Yeah, but they were all other Russians". So it's okay with Glenn Greenwald. The dude is a moral void…

Ha. HMS ThirstySponge.

Good! Franko, you write so beautifully, and your reviews are superb journalism. Happy you are archiving, because they're your ouevre as the excellent writer you are. Back it all up! I can loan you my Zip Drive, it clik-clik-cliks (You're too young to get that reference I think.) xo

I did nothing of the sort, you vicious lying cretin.

AWEsome! And thank you, that was great. :)

She was extremely popular when Albert was alive- her image was everywhere, and when photography was in its infancy, she was portrayed as rather more beautiful than she actually was. And Albert did a great many things to promote her, as the patroness of mass expositions showing of British technology and science and…

Fair enough DDB. Agree and respect you. "Antifa" may have been what they called themselves, I have only know it as what the right wing calls them. I learn, thanks. Just, the right smears a whole lot of ordinary American people standing up and counter-protesting Nazis as "antifa" too. Those people way outnumber…

My pleasure, she was fascinating!

No cilantro, please.

I shall, and you will remain a goat.

Reality sucks, doesn't it? I'm not making this up, the apathy of Bernie voters staying home because they didn't want to show up and vote for Hated Hillary in crucial states is why he got the crucial margin, and why we're living through the hell of a crazed Nazi President threatening world war and nuclear attack. …

let me thank you, Franko, for these updates. Your career path and personal (and geographic) trajectory have been fascinating and inspiring in equal measure, and I wish you the best of success going forward.

Very nicely said. I'm feeling a bit battered and bruised today from political matters about a ton of shit recently. But yeah, it's normally a great group of smart and tremendously funny and bright people here.

Dude, you don't know me and I don't know you, but from what it sounds like, you're gobbling a goat's dick as you type. No judgement! Seriously, fuck off, leave me alone. I don't know why you're attacking me so viciously.

"You're the one who's taking the occasion of Nazi violence to call out the Left, which includes the woman who died. Prick."

WOW, talk about LYING SHIT, BRAH!!

Lol. You're grasping here, darling. Your anger is beautiful in the moonlight, no one said. Nice try attempting to paint me as a misogynist, as if "bitch" wasn't thrown about all the time on Jezebel and everywhere else all the time. As if it wasn't a common word that I'm sure you've heard many times. Your…

What a ghastly sick person you must be to lie and say I did any such thing.
Disgusting, what went wrong with your life that you would make such an obvious false accusation? What is wrong with you, comrade?

you stupid fuckface asshole. Ineffectual stupid cowards like you
I literally fucking hate you.
