You realize that is exactly what he is going to do and there is literally nothing and nobody that can convince him to do otherwise, right? He completely blew up the playbook when it came to campaigning and there is zero evidence that he will follow any sort of conventional path when it comes to actually you know,…

That’s the joke.

Yes, I know I am livid and astonished when I look at my FB feed and see the astounding level of ignorance spouted by my hometown “friends” from BFE small-town South Georgia. But me being all college-educated city-boy liberal in my responses to them will not help bring them around.

Jesus, people, give it up. This is why we lost...just because you hate him and find him odious and vile and everything that is wrong with America and colossally unsuited for the job doesn’t mean he doesn’t want it. You assume he’s going to hate it because you assume that he’s going to approach it the same way that…

You’re interpretation of what constitutes an opinion leaves much to be desired. President-elect Trump (or any president for that matter) does not possess standing to propose an amendment without the cooperation of the Senate leadership for the simple fact that the Senate majority leader, in this case McConnell who has…

Please point to which sections of NPR’s analysis are untrue. DT says he will propose an amendment. Constitutionally he does not have standing to propose an amendment by himself. That is a fact, not an opinion. Had DT said, “I will work with Senate Leadership to propose an amendment” that would have been a fact or…

Fuck yeah, Middle Georgia represent! Where did y’all stay? Perry?

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it? I am genuinely puzzled by your commitment to fostering voting irregularities under the guise of misplaced compassion. To the extent that Donald Trump is asking for lawfully-enacted electoral processes to be fairly enforced, he is not wrong, per se. If you’d…

The right thing in this case was to follow the rules which ensure that we have orderly, fair and impartial electoral processes as much as possible. Which she did.

So much nope. That’s not how it works. As a poll worker she doesn’t have discretion. She would have been breaking the law and opening herself up to prosecution all the while destroying everyone else’s faith in the system. What if that kid were a known supporter of a certain candidate and somebody from the…

You handled lovetonight’s hot take much better than I would have. You had a job to do. You did it fairly. Would democracy have fallen apart had you let the kid vote? Of course not. Your fair application of the rule of law made it a little stronger though.

Holy cow. I hardly know where to start unpacking that response. With your first paragraph you’re essentially saying “Hey, things could be worse so what are you complaining about?” Then you go on to say that YOU have much more important things to worry about...that’s the point. Because you, like me (I’m assuming…

The argument, which I suspect you well-know, isn’t that ride-sharing services themselves are inherently terrible to women and/or people of color (ie they engage in unfair hiring practices or have a business plan that is explicitly racist such as “Serving Only Whites” )but that the ride-sharing services’ designs allow…

And what is maddening is that this is only true in the most superficial of senses insofar as there had never been a literal office called “President” before but completely ignores nearly every other facet of both Washington’s life experience and crucially, temperament. While he is obviously flawed from a modern…

Very short answer — the Gulf Stream.

We don’t know from Baylor’s statement whether she brought up the movie rights or if it was in the settlement they offered her (ie, as part of taking this money you agree to forfeit your right to tell your story in any format, etc.) A story as big as this one, she’d be a fool to sign those rights away.

You wear it so the screen is on the inside of your wrist. It has a setting that you tell it wear you’re wearing it and it orients the screen appropriately. Sounds a bit off but I’ve worn it this way for almost a year and now it’s baffling that people would wear fitness trackers any other way.

I know...it’s depressing. But with everyone dropping support for WP platform, I’m running out of options. Chase’s website won’t even support WP. I don’t feel like waiting till next year when Microsoft *might* release its first generation Surface phone which will once again suffer from zero mainstream apps. I don’t…

Sadly as the owner of a 5th Microsoft band since December I can confirm this. When the thing works it is great.

Truth. Sadly however it did have a major flaw in that it will almost inevitably “brick”—just won’t power all of a sudden. I’m on my fifth one since December. On the plus side, I’ve never been hassled by the folks at the Microsoft store about getting a new one. Just hand over the old one and they give me another. …
