Not enough of a fuss has been made about Ivanka going to Berlin for the W20 summit. She has no qualifications to work in policy, international law or norms, diplomacy, or women’s rights. She has no reason to be the representative for our country, other than being the daughter of the president. She is not a fucking…

What part of capital GAINS is not clear?

No. That’s exactly the claim he wants to make. And he’s proud to do so.

The only difference being that Chechnya has a Muslim majority doing this.

Sooo they’re trying to block abortion by denying funds used for contraception, which is actually the most efficient way to *prevent* abortions. This “pro-life” movement is not really about preventing abortions. It’s about (and always has been about) policing the sexual behavior of women and limiting their family…

I never understood why people hate the idea of bullet trains so much when their main purpose would be to compete with airlines.

If you don’t show up you are still charged for the ticket, though (at least, that’s what happened to me when I missed a flight). So airlines just want to make twice the money of one seat, and I can’t summon up a whole lot of sympathy for that.

I understand, but I just don’t care.

Invitation needs to state that any member of the media who says “Donald Trump became President last night” may not attend.

When will white people address their culture of violence?

How was he radicalized? Where was he praying? Why didn’t neighbors report him?

An anecdote of why you can’t run government like a business. As told by Jamie Vollmer:

Also.... that a nationalised health service works pretty damn well.

I scored 7 on the list. Fortunately I think creationism is bullshit and I’m a dope smoking middle aged homo so the threat I pose is limited.

Honestly, they’re lucky they just got groped.

Seriously. Why the fuck do I have to pay for his testicular cancer screenings? Why do I have to pay for anything that doesn’t affect me directly? I pave my own roads and teach my own schools and put out my own fires too! I AM AN ISLAND AND MY ISLAND HAS NO MAN-PARTS.

Preach it. One of my (straight, white, liberal, male) friends has been on a real Maher streak as of late, with his favorite subject being those intolerant liberal college kids; you know, the ones that object to having openly awful human beings being given a platform to speak at their place of learning. He’s always…

Neither do I. He could’ve stood up to his family and married Camilla. He didn’t. His own damn fault, and he made Diana miserable too.
