I guess because people get confused when Sanders on gun control comes up; he voted against the Brady Bill 5x but every time we talk Sanders gun control record people seem to think the only ‘pro gun’ stance he has is against suing manufacturers. So I think people then conflate the different policies.

I work in mental health and had a client who did something similar to this during a manic episode. She’s an elderly woman so the comments were in a similar vein. As soon as I saw this headline I KNEW it was going to turn out to be the result of a mental health break. Glad to see that the authorities treated her with…

Because why post a picture from the fictionalized version when there are actual images of the real events?

But that's the thing though, even other conservatives in his own party hate him and hate working with him. The joke is that they'd all vacate for the same reason that none of his colleagues have endorsed him - even if you agree with the guy you still think he's an insufferable tool.

They didn't say it wasn't assault, they said it wasn't *sexual* assault.

Yeah I said the other day he's like a living representation of the uncanny valley

Want the an article recently that had an interview with the writer of hairspray whose name i frustratingly can’t remember and he mentioned how ludicrous he found it when a production of the show cast a black actress as Tracy? I’m pretty sure he caught shit fir that in the comments, even though Tracy being white is…

Yeah but that’s different than “look at this fat bearded man pose like a lingerie model.”

The initiatives that show how ridiculously female superheroes are clothed and posed by putting male superheroes in the same clothes and poses make a point. The articles that show a series of pictures of men who aren't…

Well fucking played

Re: your 3rd point - largely out of date and too liberal, but also indicative of what was very likely Alzheimer’s.

Apparently Ted Cruz recently came out and said that JFK would be a republican in today’s society and that dems would hate him. This is because JFK cut taxes (while technically true, historical context matters) and stood for religious liberty (also technically true, but he stood for actual religious liberty not…

I thought the GOP hated JFK? So are these republican women basically admitting that they secretly lust for liberals?


Okay I just googled it and apparently Ted Cruz came out and said that JFK would be a republican today and that dems would hate him ‘cause he stood for religious liberty. Which is bonkers. JFK DID stand…

A million years ago, we were on a family vacation in Florida. My family had driven down from Michigan, and my aunt and uncle and cousins had flown over from England. My cousins are all younger than my brother and sister and I. The oldest of them was about 6 or 7 at the time, I believe. My mom loves to tell this…

oh god right? all the previews were steaming hot garbage

Came to say the same thing. There was a trailer with deadpool. Given that deadpool was a record breaking hit, I don't think it's quite accurate to state that no one has heard of this movie....

I made more working at a glorified call center (recruiter at a staffing agency) than I do as a counselor at a mental health clinic.

That is a) amazing and b)...kind of accurate? Dude who wrote a book about Christie and has spent way longer than anyone should following him around and watching his press conferences and all kinds of stuff was on Chris Hayes last night saying basically this. This is how the dude looks when he's on stage but not…

“American” accent is no more meaningless than “English” or “British” accent. There are distinct regional accents and vernacular pretty much everywhere, but within countries there are similarities between the regional accents that still tie them together.

But yeah no one is criticizing Iggy for sounding “American.”

What a dick. I met his girlfriend/partner/whatever you wanna call her once, she came into the jewelry store where I worked and I helped her put together a charm bracelet that she was planned on wearing to the Oscars when American Hustle was nominated. She was perfectly nice. Shame about the asshole s/o.

Nah, I’m sure I’ve read in a recent interview about her respect and affection for him on a personal level. I’ll try to find it.
