When I pointed out that it was a literal part of the Republican party platform to do so he said he didn’t agree that was true.

They don’t care. None of his supporters care. At Christmas I tried desperately to get my father to entertain the idea that Trump is unfit for office, rampantly immoral, and clearly deeply unwell. He only cared about the Supreme Court.
I was raped at 15 by my best friends older brother, who got me to go home with him from school by telling me that said friend was sick and needed my help, where he then beat me unconscious and raped me.
About a month later, my father beat the shit out of my rapist.
Some weeks after that, my two brothers beat him up…
“Violence is not the answer” is some horseshit “rule” oppressive power structures want you to believe.
I mean...violence is not the answer, but I understand. I don’t condone it, but I get it.
There’s a pretty significant movement toward more “natural” residential areas, these days. I know in my town the city has allowed people to plant native grasses, flowers and plants and their front yard. And, of course, it’s not just good for nature, but cuts way down on maintenance.
I hate lawns. They’re biologically dead areas, the grass doesn’t have flowers and is designed to suffocate all other plants that try to grow in the over-fertilized soil. No flowering plants means no bugs, no bugs means no birds. You might as well pave the whole area. I get that lawns are great in parks and such, but…
Be careful there, you don’t want to splinter the audience.
As a Texan in a a red-red-red county, the eagerness of my neighbors to believe and regurgitate the attacks on the witnesses, an imperative to know the identity of and question the whistle-blower (despite the substance of the whistle-blower complaint being corroborated by multiple sources), and conservative talking…
Historic times. Hey...G/O Media...you people should totally start a politics blog that could cover all this stuff as it happens. Man, that would be great, ya know?
The icing on the cake is that the convictions carry a sentence of up to 20 years and he royally pissed off the judge multiple times during the trial!
The rapist part is not her fault. The whole covering it up thing absolutely is.
Most of the people up in arms about this are actually vegans, so fur is just the start for them really.
Today we are all Juli Briskman giving the finger to Trump.
Barry, thanks for everything, from a daily reader of Jez and Deadspin. I’ve enjoyed reading your work so much over the years, and I’m outraged at what’s been done to you and to everyone at Deadspin. I always appreciated the Deadspin wasn’t afraid to take on larger sociocultural issues related to sports, particularly…
You guys (and the GMG people standing with you) are making us proud.
Jezebel’s “stick to sports” approach is clearly the recipe moving forward.
Finally! Someone on Kinja is covering the World Series. Too bad there’s not a site for that.
Clover, I enjoyed your article. I’d like to discuss one quote:
“there could be three teams out there to make it more interesting.”. Though I’m a baseball fan and I wouldn’t like this, I would like to watch a sport between three…
Yo, congrats to you and the rest of your crew for standing up for what you believe in.
Thank you for this, I have spent all morning looking for a website to tell me who won last night’s game.
