3+ years into this bullshit, I’m still horrified at my capacity to be horrified. But then you get something like this, where millions in tax dollars an spent in the promotion of deranged vision of america, where facts don’t matter and Jesus would have been working in private equity if he had his choice.

I don’t know about you, but I sure am excited for her inevitable show on Fox News, co-hosted with Juan Williams. 

I first saw this on Saturday, and was so happy that Maker made this choice. The only power that people not in the existing power structure have is through collective action. If athletes of color start choosing HBCUs en mass, particularly in the “one and done” era, the effect is going to be phenomenal. You only need to…

The full video is one of the most bizarre things I’ve ever seen. Because Handgun Becky seemed to trying to deescalate the situation, in an admittedly terrible, privileged, and ham-fisted way. But then mom slaps the car, and she’s Annie Oakley.

I will never be able to tally up the number of hours that I’ve lost, at every holiday and family gathering, trying desperately to explain that the issue isn’t any of the markers of race, but money.

I keep hammering this point, but what we’re talking about is a reorientation of the entire system of reality that White America lives in. It is a massive project that we are really just starting on as a nation. For example, I’m sure that in his heart, Jeff Sessions doesn’t think he’s racist. It’s just that to his way…

I went back and listened to the original interview you linked where she became a celeb. She is a copper-hulled, ocean going, weapons grade moron. To wit, this video, the one that got her fired, contained her condemnation of evangelical pastors who were supporting BLM. I’ve transcribed it, and excerpted it below:

I’m disappointed that they decided to pull “The Live Episode”. If I remember, Tracy Jordan’s character was urbane, former Tuskegee Airman who was subjected to massively offensive behavior from John Hamm, before kicking his ass.

As a card carry white guy, let me offer a slightly different spin on your unassailable conclusions. I too have seen the newly found shock and horror on my friends faces, as they have come to grips with the obvious. What is hard to appreciate, I suspect, for any POC is the amount of energy that it has taken to pierce…

I absolutely adore the comment from his boy:

In my mind, this event and the NYC “Social Distancing Arrest” will be forever conjoined. Gun-wielding neo-confederates — in the Michigan State House, for fuck’s sake — don’t get so much as a harsh word from the cops, while a dude asking questions in NYC gets the shit slapped out of him by the second coming of Officer…

At the risk of being branded a pedant, “doctor” can mean whatever the granting institution means it to. You can be become a Doctor of Divinity from the Universal Life Church for like, $40. 

“And considering CJ McCollum’s estimation that a third of the league lives check to check, it doesn’t bode well for the financial stability of some of our favorite NBA players.”

Middle-aged dude here with a question: could this dope get it in real life. You know, with real people? Sure, in the manufactured confines of reality TV, he’s a hot commodity. But if you measured him against actual people, he a) dumb, and b) kind of a misogynist.

I think you had a critical miss for Team Roscoe in Round 1. A not insignificant number of my fellow whites now believe a) that COVID was created in a lab in Wuhan, and b) intentionally released by the Chinese Government as a way to crush American awesomeness or as a dry run for something worse. 

At this point, the best way to determine if you have COVID is to cough in a rich person’s face, and wait for their test results.

“But according to Mrs. America, Schlafly already has.”

That is the only appropriate response.

I’m showing my age, but in retrospect, it’s unreal how great hip-hop was in the early 90's. In 3 years, you got these amazing, fully formed albums from Tribe, de La, Jungle Brothers, and so many other who’s outtakes would absolutely destroy 99% of what is being made today.

Trump is an existential threat to America, and getting him and army of sycophants the fuck outta’ there as soon as possible is job number one. If suburban white folks feel better voting for Biden, so be it.
