Bit of unrelated trivia: Racine, Wisconsin did indeed have a women’s team, and my mother was the youngest player on their farm team. She was an excellent athlete (I didn’t inherit that, but my sister did).

For the people saying “why would she want to do this” we’re talking about the sibling of Palmer Luckey here, the guy who created Oculus VR, made a mint selling it to Facebook, and now spends his days championing Trump and selling AI tech to catch people coming over the border.

The congressman’s office announced the happy couple would be honeymooning at The White Lotus in Maui, staying in the world famous Pineapple Suite. 

I don’t know why people are so shocked that she didn’t know what was going on.

It’s funny but poor republicans like the stimulus. They still vote against their own interests though.

It may get more average people on board with it, but it’ll never fly with Republican politicians and their rabid base. In their eyes it’s just socialism/giving money to lazy people to keep them from working/a radical leftist idea/taking from ‘you’ and giving to ‘them’/etc.

If you give poor people money they some how are able to take care of themselves better. I hope this program and the stimulus gets more people on board with Universal Basic Income and Health Care For All proposals.

Massive migraine. Not posting tonight. Will post sometime tomorrow.

Not to mention Fox news and right wing republicans would point out how this is indicative of that community. If he were black, another example of black on black crime. He were muslim, It would be about how terrorist are here in our country and we should have a muslim ban. He were mexican, another example of bad

I have three brothers-in-law who, when I married Mr. Valve, were pretty nice and decent guys. One by one, they’ve all fallen down the internet rabbit hole into crazy QAnonish/far right garbage in the past five or six years, until I can’t even stand to be in the same room with them anymore. With each of them, I’ve

Someone would have brought up that he smoked weed while in high school once too

If he'd been literally anything else other than white, we would have gotten his arrest record and mental health history complete with "a history of violence."

I’m confused why Lavar Burton wasn’t the IMMEDIATE choice. Nothing made more sense than having him host.

Which is exactly where it comes from. There’s a chronological correlation between women starting to work en masse and men making less, but that’s not the causation. The causation was the fucking Reagan administration, which dismantled protections for workers everywhere, broke unions and basically ensured that

It’d be nice if one Hollywood movie could find a way to blame the crisis of masculinity on capitalist alienation instead of women.

Another (among many) absurdity of this movie is the idea that anyone from our coddled, self-absorbed, necissistic society would lift a finger to fight a war thirty years in the future. Hell, half the population won’t take basic steps to protect themselves against a pandemic that’s here right now.

The only people that should be mocked are the unvaxxed.

Twice a day is understandable in a Florida summer.  What about winter, or if you stay inside all day?

You know what? If the Obamas want to go off and live the wealthy fantasy life, I can’t think of any couple who has earned it more. For eight (more, really) years, they did their best for us and put up with the most vile garbage any first couple has ever had to deal with, and then the country slapped all their effort

I found out a year after my Dad had died that my brother had been systematically stealing from my Mom for at least that amount of time. It isn’t on the same level since they’re not rich, but $16k of provable stolen funds is a lot of money to a retiree on a fixed income. It was in small amounts like automatic refilling
