It’s not horribly written if the point is that Bernie’s people don’t want Bernie voters to say “I want Bernie, but I could live with Liz Warren” or worse yet, look at Warren and go, “oh, she has a lot more realistic plans to hit all the goals Bernie talked about with a much less toxic fanbase” and defect, which will…

Super Simple Songs is the best of them IMHO.

My revenge fantasy actually involves him being arrested at the inauguration by SDNY and perp-marched away while 1 million humans scream with joy on the Mall singing “na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey, good-bye”

You know what’s worse? Mother Goose Club. They’re just like “wow, this valley is uncanny, LET US GLORIFY IT”

Imagine if the Atlantic listened to Twitter. They could fire Conor Friersdorf and this rube, stop hiring Jesse Singal’s TERFy butt, and hire a bunch of much better writers, even for their fake-deep clickbait.

DC: WMATA makes MTA look world-class. I mean, right now they shut down Alexandria’s metro lines for three months because hey, why not? Employees have regularly scammed their employer, the escalators are a joke.

Yup. All these wannabe cowboys and meth-heads in East County would vote for Satan over Jesus if Satan had the Republican nomination. I’m glad Campa-Najjar is running but Bill Wells is probably our best chance to get Hunter out in 2020.

Weirdly, in this case it’s a strong maybe because it would be breaking a family dynasty.

Yeah, the best possible chance is that he gets primaried by a less shitty Republican. (My childhood district, it is full of shitty MAGAs who probably vote for this dude cuz they think he’s his dad)

I think the problem is that we can have all the empathy in the world, but part of the pathology is that these guys need men to step up and get them to the therapy they clearly need. They’re not going to listen to women, given how many men who are not incels and are “decent” don’t listen and don’t pay attention to…

“Easily frightened” is actually a big part of it. The more scared you are by the world or realizing you’re going to die, the more likely you are to be a conservative. (The theory behind it is called Terror Management Theory) Basically, the con artists realized in the late 60s a bunch of white people were terrified and…

Here’s the follow-up that will make you sadder: he will almost certainly be re-elected in 2020, even though the guy against him is hotter and better than Duane (what DH Jr went by until he decided to inherit his dad’s seat) in every way because that district is full of assholes.

Yup. When I used to drink a lot in my 20s, you know what happened? I got stupid giggly, yelled “I can’t feel my legs” and said a lot of hilarious shit and wanted to take off my clothes or dance provocatively. So...yes, basically I was a typical college/grad student who wanted to have fun and get some while drunk.

Yeah, that’s probably the right call, especially as they are still. supporting. Dan. Lipinski. Fuck that guy forever.

OK, that is the ONE argument for letting Chelsea go I’ve heard that is legitimate. Though I would rather fine and jail all the Trumpsters because fuck all these people obstructing justice (including you, Chelsea Manning, you have immunity and Julian Assange did some criminal shit so deal with it)

She could stop protecting her buddy Julian, who sold her ass out and is an active agent of espionage and other bullshit, given she has immunity and she did a serious crime to boot.

Except he already gave it to them for funsies or via that unsecured phone.

A goodly number of cis women have XY chromosomes throughout time. Now, even if it’s true about Caster Semenya (and you don’t know that for sure), a grand total of ONE woman with XY chromosomes is a really good 800 m runner, largely because Semenya doesn’t fit white western standards of womanhood. If we found out Paula…

Oh, look, TERF proves my point that they come up with these wild cases that don’t fit all cis women and then act the fool when they get called on it.

Yes, but then they’ll pop up with “Trans activists are demanding that lesbians like dick!” or any of their “BUT MUH SLIPPERY SLOPE” bull when they know the normies are bored.
