I get that, but I feel like “wokeness” (ugh) is like peeling away layers of an onion. I try really hard to empathize with my friends of color, but every once in a while they will say or experience something that I find shocking. And in response, I try to think about it, rather than denying it happened or getting…

But if Donald Trump can help her heal, then perhaps that is a good thing. 

Mr. Burnit and I have been calling them “WhiteSIS.” Because they are basically white ISIS. I feel like this encompasses the misogyny, racism, and Islamophobia/ anti-semitism in one fell swoop.

Right? Like, you nazis want to go into your own community where people who aren’t like you can’t go? Sounds great! Don’t ever come back! And don’t come knocking when you realize you need to hire immigrants to do all the hard work you don’t want to do!

Would you be willing to provide some ideas for what to call them? I’ve tried but everything I’ve come up with is inappropriate to say around children.

It would 100% be blamed on “The Librals” if he quit. We’re being very unfair!

YES! Nate Silver was very clear about how untrustworthy the polls were this year. Plus the Nazis on Reddit encouraged folks to lie to pollsters. No way there were that many “undecided” voters out there that long.

I don’t think Pitt is Leo’s type.

Although to be honest, if a candidate eliminated everyone who either was a) involved in a scandal or b) was married to someone involved in a scandal, Corey Booker would be stuck doing EVERYTHING.

It’s obviously a typo. He clearly meant to say he’s not elven. I had him pegged as a half-orc, personally.

My aunt used to have a couple of Bichons who each had favorite toys. Every once in a while, they would steal each others’ favorites and growl at each other from across the room, both enraged that they couldn’t have their favorite, but refusing to give up their hostage. Your dogs are much more shady in their execution…

Perhaps this is down thread, but I would just like to post this to remind people why you do not fuck with Tammy Duckworth. I cannot wait for her to rip him to shreds, should the opportunity present itself.

I HATE it when parents ask their children to give me a hug, because it means I am also forced into it for the sake of politeness. Fuck politeness. I am totally OK with getting a fist bump or a high five from a kiddo instead... it’s not rude at all. And if adults have a problem with it, it’s their problem... not…

Right up there with “I’m not racist, but...”

I started turning at about 23, and now at 35 I have streaks of platinum. I have been told multiple times that I “look like a paid a lot of money” for those grays (well, I guess I kind of did... thanks, grad school!)

Me too. I checked Amazon Prime last night, and the episode wasn’t up yet. This is a crappy move! Would it have killed anyone to just say “contestant” rather than “winner?” Jeez!

I heard that interview. So gross. And if anyone mugs at the camera in absurd and immature ways, it’s Trump!

Can we please have a Shade Bracket during next year’s March Madness?

I argue that the correct answer is to nail Hollywood first, THEN Mary Berry because she would find something nice to say about it if things don’t go well with Paul. Here’s how I envision it:

Paul: Now, see how it’s all doughy here? It’s over proved. You shouldn’t have left it alone for so long, now you have a soggy…
