I was once at an author talk and a woman did this and she went on for a solid five minutes. It was pure “look at me, I am so erudite.” People were outwardly huffing and rolling their eyes (the woman on one side of me rolled her entire head). And after she was finished the author was like “ ... That’s fine. Next…

“Is that a no or a maybe?” he then asked. “We’ll see,” she said.

Yes! And you don’t even need an app if that’s not something the event host/venue want to pursue — there are tons of other options to avoid this exact scenario. Just have people write their questions on cards they drop in a box to be sorted through by an off-stage staff member who will hand the best ones to the…

Never been to a comic con Q and A I take it?

Imagine your worst ideas of Q and A and then multiply it by a thousand. Inane bullshit declarations of love, borderline and over the border superiority complexes of knowing more about some comic characters bathroom habits, shit requests for selfies in front of thousands,…

“This is really more of a comment than a question...”

It can’t possibly be that hard to have some sort of app that allows audience members to submit questions to the moderator, and the moderator can choose from there. This is the obvious solution.

All the people who were indignant about an earlier comment I made saying that Biden isn’t *that* much better than Trump need to read this whole thing, but especially that last paragraph. Biden is essentially a Republican. People can be Republicans if they want, I guess, but I was done being a Republican by the time I…

I forgot to mention that Biden and Obama worked overtime on ripping Social Security to shreds with their grand bargain, but didn’t expect the hate of a black guy is stronger on the right than the hate of caring for others and a social contract.

Thing about the circular firing squad is everyone who says it is by…

Given how many articles that have been written about how boob plating would hurt more than help, I’m not feeling it either.

This is GOOD Kinja, well done!

He is willing to capitulate to the oligarch class, thus all the positive press and astroturfing by oligarch owned media outlets.

Biden appeals to people that don’t spend a lot of time online. His support is largely over-40 voters and black voters. People have a hard time believing that most Democrats are not “woke activists” or college kids and are just average people that have relatively moderate beliefs.

The appeal is supposed to be that he’s the only one who can beat Trump. If you ask someone why they think he’s the only one who can beat Trump, they’ll point out that you obviously don’t want to beat Trump, since if you did you would be stumping for Joe Biden, the only one who can beat Trump. After all, the time to…

Right now he’s running on a combination of name recognition and Obama nostalgia. People need to realize that he’s not Obama, and while he may have supported Obama as VP, he’s significantly to the right of Obama, which is partly why he was chosen, since Obama was seen at the time as the more liberal contender (and…

The poster is gorgeous but she looks like a character from Starlight Express, but I guess that means they’re really nailing the 80s aesthetic.

I’m not being snarky here, but I just don’t see it.  What is the appeal of Joe Biden.  I mean I always knew he was smarter then the aw shucks persona he used to get people to underestimate him. but he is seriously NOT presidential material by a long shot. 

I don’t understand why Jezebel has to split the Democratic Party by reporting all these objectively awful things I didn’t bother to learn at the time and don’t want to learn now cause my mind is made up and changing course even this early in the game would require me to admit fault and that’s cognitively intolerable!

Th…

And they argued that women voters for whom this was an important issue weren’t likely to vote for Mitt Romney, who has drawn a strong anti-abortion line as a presidential candidate...

Not sure I love the boob armor here, but the aesthetics of this image are gorgeous.  I love the way the crazy background is reflected onto the gleaming metal armor.

Joe Biden is here, women, to save you!

No, he’s not here to save you from forced childbirth, you fickle bitches. He’s just here to save you from a narrowly-defined idea of partner violence, that certainly doesn’t include trans or nonbinary women.

What do you mean, you cunts aren’t grateful? Don’t you want Donald Trump…
