FWIW, the SDNY likely already has a boatload of evidence, and NY State is gunning for him after he’s out of office. My issue is this: by doing nothing, we basically tell him he can get away with NO consequences, and by extension we reinforce the idea that in America, rich white dudes can be criminals with impunity. It’…

I can see this, but I also think it’s POSSIBLE that people around him, if he’s impeached, might try a bit harder to keep his ass in check. I also feel like, idk, if he isn’t given any consequences - even just having to deal with the impeachment proceedings - then it’s not even worth having impeachment laws. Like, the…

I think that:

A mitzvah is doing something good because God commands it. Not because you want to earn points to heaven. Does that make sense at all? It can be a blurred line sometimes when you try to explain it. 

I didn’t say ALL Christians did. Mike Huckabee’s brand of Christianity does. I promise you, I know so many Christians who act like assholes most of the week but then sit in Church on Sunday because “they don’t want to go to hell.” This jackass is one of them.

What I think they meant was that atheists, like many Jews, simply believe in being good people because it’s what is right.

Yep. I do. Because I know I’m a decent human being. 

I mean, technically Jews don’t believe in Heaven or Hell, so it really is kind of a moot point as far as *I* am concerned (the cloud fantasy is just in my own headcanon) but you’re quite likely right, if there’s a Hell, he’s headed there.  So maybe I will alter my fantasy to be that God talks to him, pretends he’s…

Oh, calm down. It does not hurt you if I have beliefs. You’re why atheists get a bad name. And that’s coming from my atheist partner.

I’m Jewish. We don’t believe in trying to “earn points” to get to Heaven, because we should act like good people on Earth just because it’s what God wants us to do and we need to repair the world.  As such, I try not to judge people or wish ill will on them.

Ohhhh, that’s a good point.  I forgot he started yakking about that a few days ago.  I’m on pins and needles!

If that’s the case, then he’s either got serious dementia or definite effects of a stroke - it’s like having deja vu, except crazier. 

I’ve been trying to figure out for two days why the fuck Donald is all of a sudden railing against McCain again. The only explanation I can come up with is that at some point, he had a stroke, and now is under the belief that McCain just “thumbs-downed” Obamacare repeal YESTERDAY.  Anyone else have any other ideas?

From someone who wasn’t diagnosed until she was 25, thank you for being such a wonderful and caring parent. Please tell your child that it does get better - I went from wanting to kill myself on a daily basis to being on a mental health committee at my local bar association. It is not easy by any means, and it can…

Girl, Mr. Yacht and I are going to Toronto this weekend and may not come back.  Much as I love this city, the state is killing it for us.

Blameless life? Bite my shiny metal ass. It’s only been “blameless” because he didn’t get caught until now. 

I didn’t actually interact with them because they came in while I was on my break - I heard aaaaall about it when I got back to the store though, and most of what I heard about Khloe was that she was nice but since we live where we live, people were more excited about Tristan, and by the time they talked about him, I…

About six months or a year ago, Khloe and Tristan showed up at the Sephora I worked at (I live in CLE so it makes sense). I was the only employee in the place other than the loss prevention dude who was like, “Um, k?” I can’t keep track of this family, and the only Cavs player I care about is my husband Kevin Love who…

Oatly is my new fucking jam - when I can find it. That shit hits the shelves at Target and Whole Foods and two seconds later it’s gone! 

He was thinking he wouldn’t get caught. Which is just arrogance, not even stupidity.
