It gets complicated, but seriously, we black folks need to knock off the racism, though.

I don’t think that accounts for everyone who voted for Trump. It seems obvious that different people voted for Donald Trump for a variety of different reasons, in various combinations. Some of those people are hopeless, some of them are probably already on team anyone-but-Trump, and some of them are likely to find…

“If you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyber warfare, if you don’t police your platforms, we are going to hold you accountable,” Harris said.

He’s never going to finish these books. He is going to die before he gets through the last one.

How the fuck does anyone mistake the expression “die on this hill” for anything other than a harmless, idiomatic saying?

Jon would have let everyone die to get to the NK.

Keto diet is not safe long-term for humans

So you’re just against having a national defense? I don’t understand how to take this comment other than your disapproval over having a military in the first place.

Real scary: a state he wasn’t going to win anyway.

If Barr were black, it would raise an eyebrow... but ultimately the message would still be clear (I think). BUT Barr isn’t black! So what the actual fuck? What is the component of this that is aimed at black people? It seems to me that for a situation to properly be thought of as a “racism”, there’s a certain nexus of…

First, he may actually like to act (a foreign concept to most of us who slave away at jobs we hate); second, having a paycheck but not commitments frees him to take projects that would otherwise not be able to pay the bills (plenty of indie movies, for example), or even start his own production company; third, as I…

How do you know? He could be taking meetings, or going to auditions. Hell, if he decides to just take a vacation I’d say that’s better than showing up for some random hearing.

No! Sometimes we’re high at 4:37 a.m., and affirmatively crave Taco Bell.

What are the odds he just puts a gun in his mouth before all is said and done?

I doubt it; I’m not thrilled that Smollett got cut loose when it seems clear he lied and wasted everyone’s time to aggrandize himself.... but I certainly wouldn’t consider my mild annoyance comparable to the pain, suffering, futility, and injustice felt by McDonald’s family.

It is, in fact, a hardship (albeit a minor one given his wealth and resources) inasmuch as he probably needs to take the entire day to travel and attend, which costs him both time and money. And it’s undue, because he is not necessary for this hearing. The special counsel wasn’t requested to investigate him, but…

There really doesn’t seem to be any legitimate reason to haul Smollett back to Chicago for this hearing. The truth of Smollett’s hoax is technically immaterial to the subject of the inquiry: why Foxx deferred prosecution. The only thing that should matter is her explanation for why she did it, and whether the bases…

This is so completely absurd. She’s a woman according to everyone (woke people, anti-trans biggots, everyone), that should be enough.

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say with your comment—I don’t fault the victim for wanting to be spared the pain of cross-examination; I just see the prosecutor’s side of it as well. The whole article takes a dump on the decision to plead the guy out, and frankly it’s not the prosecutor’s fault. The kidnapper in…

It seems like he’s really just selling himself as a generally thoughtful, well-spoken, and intelligent guy, who is readily prepared to not rake Trump voters over the coals for their having voted for Trump, and generally seems to believe that America and its people are capable of coming together. Frankly, it reminds me…
