Yeah I don’t know I actually always did find it sort of fascinating in a macabre way. He really did come off as gay so it was like why on earth does this closeted dude have such an unhealthy obsession with abortion? HOWEVER he did claim to have some crazy (seemingly unrequited) crush on Lila Rose so who really knows

He was pretty close with one Charles “Chuck” Johnson

I agree he is a great foil for Trump, I said for months I thought Hillary should pick him as her running mate

I love Hillary like a second mother (this is barely an exaggeration, it’s so well known in my social circle that I had people calling me after the election as if family member had died) but Hillary would lose against Trump in 2020. I think it is PROFOUNDLY unfair but people have made up their minds about her and Bill.

Well there’s new blood and “new blood.” Trump is new blood e.g. no political experience, no Washington experience, etc. and then there’s “New Blood” e.g. hasn’t been on the national political stage for multiple Presidential Election cycles. “New Blood” historically is needed to win elections. So I don’t think people

Yeah I was reading a lot about that too...Bannon let the bill go kaput to make Ryan look bad.

This dude has been obsessed with banning abortion since at least sophomore year of college... he wrote his thesis on abortion and graduated a year early so he could make fighting against abortion rights his life cause. There’s clearly something off about him

Same! Who are you voting for you the special election?!

I knew him in college and he definitely read as closet case

Where did you claim that? Went to college with the guy and he didn’t really go out (he was also obsessed with abortion back then and I literally mean obsessed)

Prime example: SMILING! When he attempts to smile he literally ends up making an emoji frown and it’s truly baffling.

Nah here’s the irony....Breitbart was more anti-ACHA than Fox was. Breitbart is a batshit crazy racist right-wing organization BUT they stick to those “principles” they don’t just carry water for whatever pablum comes out of our capricious President’s mouth

I cannot decide if I despise Nunes for being so craven, or if I love him for being so incompetent. Broad consensus is his bullshit is all but guaranteeing a special committee investigate.

YES! Like these people SUPPORTED you Trump! Why are you literally ramming a bill through congress that will **KILL THEM**. It’s not a fucking exaggeration, people will die if this passes. Insane.

It comes out of the same agreement actually. In exchange for Protestants playing up abortion stuff more, they requested Catholic leaders tone down the social/economic justice stuff in sermons. It was some fucked up synergy.

Yes! I wish more people knew this. Protestants evangelicals in the 1970s really consciously decided to come out against abortion to forge a political alliance with socially conservative Catholics. I heard a whole interview about it on Fresh Air a couple of years ago. It was incredibly cynical and not really based on

It’s just like what happened with Milo. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

Yeah but the song isn’t really about an Ex, it’s about a fuck buddy or something. He’s like out doing his thing but demands she should stay home like a good girl? That’s weak tea. I clearly have strong opinions about this song haha but I just think it’s a very subtle yet specific type of gross male-entitlement.

My issue with “Hotline Bling” is more than just one lyric. The whole conceit of the song is that it’s not an ex-girlfriend but a former hookup buddy. And impliedly he’s off doing his thing but getting all anxious that she might also be meeting new people and having a good time. It’s really weirdly possessive. I’m not

Wait wait what is halfway decent about Drake? “Hotline Bling” is the most obnoxious slut-shaming song of recent memory. He is almost the literal personification of the “But I’m a nice guy” that is so creepy and entitled.
