The one exception I’d make to everything I said about far-left candidates is Bernie. I still think he might have a shot. He still has some of that 2016 juice left. A lot of people, including many Republicans I know, see him as a man of character; they feel that he’s sincere and trustworthy even though they disagree…

I hope this is true. Because, right now, the vibe I’m getting is that if the Democratic nominee is a white, moderate Democrat—someone like Biden—and not a far-left POC or woman, a lot of black voters and far-left voters are going to throw a tantrum and stay home out of spite to “teach” the DNC a lesson. Right now it…
Are they just hoping to stay afloat with donations? Have they done much to monetize the site? If museum entrance fees, merchandizing, and other activity fees, aren’t enough to make ends meet, why not just sell or rent the homes to private citizens? I’ve heard of people who live in historic homes (that is, houses that…
“D.C. Council Introduces Bill to Make Go-Go ‘the Official Music of the District’”
Waiting for all the anti-cop rhetoric. This is probably one that we should sit out, though. Our community can’t claim the moral high ground on this issue. It’s not like the black community had the backs of the LGBT community in 1969...or even in 1999...or even in 2009. Stonewall wasn’t a cop problem; it was an America…
“because who leans over Beyoncé...?”
No, I’m just someone who disagrees with you on some things. Labeling people like me a “troll” is just an attempt to get people to ignore those of us with opposing views. It’s one of the many things about younger liberals that is making me embarrassed to call myself a Democrat: they’re so threatened by opposing ideas…
“Why should you let someone berate you just because they have a badge?”
Exactly what am I doing? Who do you think I am in real life? If it’s extremely obvious what I really am, then why can’t people agree on what I am? Some people respond to me as if I’m a guy. Some people accuse me of being a white woman. I get “Becky” from some of the less creative commenters. I’ve been accused of being…
Oops. That entire response was autocorrect’s doing. What I meant to type was, “I don’t lick boots.”
“‘You’re right. Guess I’ll leave you the fuck alone. Have a nice day!’ That’s how it should go. End of story.”
What can I say? I have a shoe fetish. I think it’s because my babysitter used to sodomize me with her high heels. Fucked me up real good. To this day, I can’t have an orgasm if my partner is barefoot. I never came harder than when my hubby fucked me standing up in the kitchen while wearing tap shoes. We like to…
“You have some serious issues with authority, and should probably get help.”
“Now who’s just making up their own narrative about what happened before filming began.”
As a black woman, I honestly do not give a shit about blackface. It’s what you do when you’re in blackface that matters to me. If you’re doing it to denigrate black people—for example, if you’re ridiculing our physical characteristics by making yourself look like a Sambo doll with exaggerated features, or if you’re…
Hundreds. It’s not a common thing.
What’s the whole story here? How do we know that she was doing blackface? For all we know, this is what happened:
No, he said, “You’re a fucking idiot.” But he dropped the g at the end of the word and pronounced it as “fuckin’.” The n at the end of that word plus the i at the beginning of “idiot” is why you’re hearing “ni.”
I don’t agree that he was acting like a child. He wasn’t being friendly, but I wouldn’t call it childish. It was coarse, but it falls within the range of normal adult behavior given the circumstances. So why am I not on him for being unfriendly? Because I feel that his authority entitles him to speak that way. I don’t…
I only expect the cop to be friendly at first. And that’s how the interactions begin in almost every single cop video I’ve seen. I’m inclined to believe that’s how it happened in this video, too. If a cop in one of these videos stops being friendly, it’s almost always because the other party is giving him attitude.…
