Oh yeeeaaah, I totally forgot people do that. Okay, I take that back. But yup. It’s never a bad idea to know where those exits are.

I almost stopped going to the movies during peak hours altogether: 1) A few years ago I went on a Monday night for the first time ever, and it was pure bliss. I’m never going back. 2) I will never enjoy a movie on a Friday night without the question “what if?” in my head, and it’s just not worth it when I prefer going…
I don’t want to give the troll attention, so I’m just going to piggyback on your comment: I’m pretty sure it would be a little difficult to kill over 50 people and injure 400 more using your bare hands or a car when you’re on the 32nd floor of a building across the fucking street. Call me crazy.
While I do get lulled into letting these events take a back burner in my mind, I know that the occurrence of another is not a matter of if but when and where. I don’t even think I sound paranoid when I admit that before I go anywhere where there will be a crowd, I weigh the chances that I will be in a mass shooting.…
What the fuuuuuu...?!
He’s not insulting them. They’re proud to be poorly educated, and he also called them “the smartest people, the most loyal people.”
Their possible reaction to Romney’s 47% speech isn’t relevant; I’m just talking about something comparable where he manages to offend and insult his base like Romney did. The man’s not god, and all it would take is a sense of betrayal for his fanatics to stop supporting him. He’s enough of a buffoon for it to be…
I can imagine him slipping up and saying something about how stupid his supporters are. He almost went there with his “I could shoot a person and they’d still support me” comment. If he took that too far, I think they’d turn on him, but that’s the only scenario I can see that happening in.
“Grab ‘em by the pussy” insulted women specifically, and Trump supporters think anyone who was offended by that is a feminazi.
He went to Texas. Remember? That was when he gave that lovely, hope-filled, unifying speech about the crowd size in Corpus Christi. Brought tears to my eyes. Almost as good as the inspiring speech he gave to members of the CIA back in January about crowd size. Or that one he gave to the Boy Scouts about crowd size.
I’m just waiting for him to have a Mitt Romney 47% moment. That’s what it’ll take for his bigoted supporters to turn on him, because they certainly don’t give a shit about his utter lack of regard for black and brown people, immigrants, the disabled, women, or the LGBTQ+ community.
Damn, I think you’ve identified what this is actually all about.

I was afraid I was the only one feeling a little more ambivalent about it. I would have been mortified and very uncomfortable wearing that if I were a teenager on that team, but I’m not on that dance team, so whatev. But I’m also kind of tired of the argument that people are unnecessarily sexualizing young women when…
This, and I also think there’s an element of, “If I give any attention at all to your bad qualities—your racism, your cheating—and let them affect my interactions with you, then I’m giving the bad things you’ve done power over me.” Which is really circular logic that enables shitty behavior and doesn’t hold people…
That sounds like a whole lot of babbling and nonsense to me. Also:
“The Star-Telegram notes in another report that at least two of the three brothers have been in trouble with the law before due to violent crimes...”
I wasn’t trying to be condescending. Sorry. You do you. I’ll just say that I grew up in a household with a drunk racist white man who beat the shit out of me and my brother and who my mother was stupid enough to marry, and I wasn’t happy until I stopped letting him and the punishment I thought he deserved be my…
I was talking about *him* wanting to watch people suffer. What is going on with you? Why are you so determined to think he was happy and got away with his crimes? Please trust me, happiness is release. People who make life harder for others don’t know the feeling. They hate themselves and are miserable. You don’t need…
“Niggers go home”... to America, which we built. Okay. Will do. Thanks for welcoming me into my own home, but you wasted your energy, love. Get me an Amazon gift card next time.
