That’s basically my plan. Also I will refuse to make any decisions or help anyone find that thing that is sitting in plain sight if you’d just LOOK for 5 seconds.

The longer I stay on facebook in these dark times, the smaller my circle gets. I’m absolutely livid I wasted any time or energy over the years on some of these people—and these aren’t even trumpers. And before anyone comments with the old “you’re going to let political opinions ruin friendships?”—when people I have

This is good, but what about all the minimum wage workers and people whose bosses won’t understand? I think strikes can be effective but we also need systems of protest that are more inclusive for people who can’t afford to strike.

No. Because that thinking is Right/Wrong Black/White. It’s about what is correct, not what is pragmatic. It’s a fundamentally different type of reasoning - and that’s why we never get anywhere with our statistics about recidivism and such. Because to these people it’s not about that. It’s about punishment for

But if we don’t punish people, how can I feel morally superior?!?

Problem is, a lot of Americans believe that the proper response to criminal activity is punishment and not rehabilitation. Those folks are tough to convince that prison should be more humane.

In my county, back in the dark days of the late ‘90's, there was a thing called “Teen Court.” Underage jabrones who got caught doing dumb, non-violent stuff could choose regular family court or Teen Court, which was run entirely by teenagers (but supervised by a judge).

Honestly, this type of sentence should be pervasive in the justice system, and be for kids and adults. Turns out, putting people into an overcrowded (torture) box that is prison isn’t the best idea to rehabilitate criminals. In fact, they get worse! I’m also reminded of some new prison-to-college pipelines that

I’m fine with this, honestly. It sounds like they’re actually going to be forced to sit and think through the dumb shit they did, rather than just be punished blindly and have their prejudices and ignorance fester and possibly deepen. After all, it’s not like sending them to prison would make them any less likely to

This isn’t the land down under.

Joe, are you done with that circuit panel yet? That asshole will be here in just a few minutes?

Regrettably, this has been around for a long time.

“People aren’t used to a President that gets things done! He’s getting so much done!” - my boss.

If anyone wants to know if he’s heard of the article (b/c we know he can’t read) then just see his tweets this morning about the fake media and how he “calls the shots”. Projecting again. The only satisfaction I have is that he’s humiliated by the fact that everyone thinks he either can’t read or is too incompetent to

Throwing him out would mean admitting he was never in control as president, and that he signs the most important documents without reading them.

I’m also curious.

We’re gonna send that nuke to Taaaaaajiiikastaaaaaaaaaan!!!

The article felt kind of Shakespearean- dude wants nothing more than love and respect, so much so he runs for President thinking that it’ll be the sure-fire way he’ll get love and respect. But upon becoming President, he finds himself neither loved or respected and is instead mainly alone, by himself, watching Cable

I wonder what Bannon has on him that Herr Drumpf didn’t shitcan him the minute he realized that he’d been duped.

Every word of that article is straight up amazing. Donald Trump is trapped in a Being There remake of his own making.
