“We’ll be sending out checks after the inauguration. 6-8 weeks after. Maybe never. Goddamn, why do you expect to be paid, you ingrate? You were performing for the glory of America. What kind of commie are you to expect compensation for patriotism???”

oh that would be a great feature!

Yeah I commented to them that until the 1950s(ish) Democrat in the South was basically Republican by modern standards. Nothing like presenting numbers without context to skew perception.

... You do realize that the old Democrat party was closer to the modern Republican Party? That it wasn’t until Truman and later Lyndon B Johnson that the Southern Democrats starting taking their racist selves (oh, my bad, “states-rights” loving selves) to the other party.

I hope their admissions suffer because of this. Certainly worth considering other HBCUs over Talladega College for high school students over this.

With no deductions, assuming straight tax rates, he’s giving 40% to the feds and 5% to the state of Alabama.

Fun fact 1: highest federal tax bracket is 39.6%. So even adding the 5% of the highest state bracket for Alabama, he still isn’t paying 52% in taxes. That was my point since I didn’t bother looking up federal levels specifically.

Very true. It’s why he calls such bad passing plays instead of just RUNNING THE BALL.

I mean, even pretending his math is correct*, 9% of $1.4mil is $126k. 2010 median income for a household in Tuscaloosa is about $32k. It’s not like he’d be suffering.

Angela Landsbury. In her delightful slightly drunk grandma voice.

My grandma used to make it with the Hershey Skor pieces instead of chocolate chips. SO FUCKING GOOD.

Hahahahah

I think he’s full of shit. Buffy got progressively thinner over the series. Amber was the only woman who would be in anything larger than a medium. Maybe. They might have just dressed her to look bigger. (the WB)

(because she was still thinner than the majority of women)

Joss Whedon had her gain a little weight for the role. So it would be obvious she was the chubby one compared to Inara, Zoe, and River.
