They’re not really burning down at all. They control more than half of all state houses and they control Congress. They have more than enough control to stymie progress and they are arguably in a better long term position regarding political control of the USA than the Democrats. Which is horrifying. And having one

They voted for Reagan in the first place, so...you reap what you sow.

There is nothing she or Sanders can possibly say that would satisfy the protestors. It’s pointless.

Completely meaningless anecdote: my dad worked with her a long (LONG-like Ark. first lady days) time ago and said that yes, she is *really* funny and a kick to be around. Ridiculously smart, very warm and earnest. His job at the time required a lot of travel and he always looked forward to going to Little Rock because

“He must’ve really been being an ass to get arrested by Austin PD, they are legit the most chill police around.”

“Amelia Bonow Explains How #ShoutYour Abortion ‘Just Kicked the Patriarchy in the Dick”...

“i want Serena to have enough trophies to build a castle out of”

Did you even watch the match? The entire stadium was yelling, trying to get Serena over the line.

This has been shown over and over and over again-non-whites come out for *presidential* elections. They do not come out for midterms. Comparing 2012 and 2014 as if they had the same intensity or the same sense of things at stake is disengenuous.

I have heard the idea that one benefit of the increasing diversity of the American electorate is that someone like a Trump (or even a Reagan) couldn’t win a national election anymore. Obama lost the white vote nearly 60-40 in 2012 and still won comfortably. And whoever the Republican nominee is would have to win more

You’re kidding, right? Carly Fiorina has never held elected office, never won an election, and touts her business experience, which consists of being fired from Hewlett-Packard for running the company into the ground and losing the confidence of the staff and the board. She is completely unqualified and unappealing

Seriously. I saw Tootsie recently for the first time in a long time, and that movie by itself makes me respect him. It holds up so wonderfully after 30+ years.

I am honestly blown away by how quickly these thinkpieces go up nowadays. The poor woman died less than two days ago and we are already getting essays about What It All Means. The Content Monster must be fed.

Plus, for a actress, there is *no* writer/director that has made so many great roles for women as he has. Keaton in Annie Hall, Blanchett in Blue Jasmine, Dianne Wiest in anything she does with him, Farrow in Purple Rose of Cairo, Judy Davis in Husbands and Wives, Cruz in Vicky Christina Barcelona, on and on...I can

He left them only after he had been with her for a while, they were starting to be seen out and about and the gossip was starting to build. It all came out after the Rolling Stone article where Serena allegedly trashed Sharapova, though not by name-then Sharapova fired back at a Wimbledon interview that basically

And he was married with kids when they got together. It allegedly led to a temporary rift between Serena and the rest of her family. I think he is skeevy-he takes way too much credit for her success and has been riding her (no pun intended) coattails to do commentary, sell books and get into the public eye.

There’s a prominent scar on her face. She finally said after being asked about it incessantly that some guy slashed her in the face in the alley behind her house when she was a little girl. She never talked about it because it upset her family, especially her mother, so much.

There have been complaints this year that Wimbledon has been disrespecting Venus (former #1, won Wimbledon 5 times) because they haven’t put any of her matches on Centre Court yet. I guess I can see that but at the same time, she is not in the top 10 and hasn’t been for some time.

I’m sorry HBO passed on your idea. My condolences.

It’s a remake? Of what movie? This is the first time I have ever heard that-I always heard that it was based on a short film from England. The original ending of Fatal Attraction was shown in Japan though.
