and my glasses were on my head all along!
People in the comments are interpreting “Here’s the thing about being 18 or 19 years old and voting in your first election: it’s difficult to play political catch-up” as meaning “lol it’s difficult to google a candidate teehee” instead of “it’s difficult to realise everything you’ve ever been told as a child might be…
i was raised in a conservative family and I was a conservative until I realized that I was lied to about what the republican party really meant.
I think the answer lies in the fact that most people who support the GOP don’t think that military/defense spending “counts”. It’s the only thing that’s worthy of spending, and also something we should never put limits on, in their mind.
It’s nice when people talk about how fiscally conservative their policies are and then when you point out that free birth control prevents expensive health care and welfare costs down the line, for people they don’t want reproducing anyway, or how free/cheap public housing for the homeless drives down spending for…
He won’t get much done of his stated domestic/foreign policy. But he will irreparably damage our standing with countries all over the world and, as you said, will certainly embolden all the most hateful elements of our society into more acts of bigotry and violence.
I gave you a star for “Joseph and that fucking coat”. I’m going to start a petition to rename the play to this because it’s amazing.
If I hated my ancient mother in law as much as I imagine Amber does, there’s no way in hell I’d give her the satisfaction of witnessing the divorce. Amber Heard might be infinitely less spiteful than I am though.
Once it reaches the point where an argument can’t be constructed, then the event simply didn’t happen. It was a setup using fake flames, actresses, and stuffed puppies.
Also there was a bald fire marshal outside who looks exactly like a policeman at sandy hook, and a contestant on Survivor.

I know! People are saying it’s steam or this or that but I don’t know. I have much experience with fish. At least one seems alive. Did he go to a Klingon Café?
We need her in the senate more than ever wth dipshits one and two in the running.
And isn’t life in prison generally worse than a relatively quick, painless death anyway? As far as punishments go, death seems to lenient for crimes like this. Let him spend the rest of his life in a supermax hell-hole.
There is a difference between not giving a fuck and actively abusing service workers and literally stealing thousands of dollars worth of booze. Non-famous people go to prison for that shit.
I like him. I hope this altercation doesn’t mean he’s a big asshole.
I used to be not exactly pro-death penalty, but not completely against it either. Then the state of Texas executed a clearly innocent man, Cameron Todd Willingham, in 2004. I’ve been dead set against it ever since, and will spend the rest of the time that I live in this country fighting against it.
My objection to the death penalty hinges on three questions:
Those are the best cases to ponder — the ones that make you say, “I would like to personally disembowel him with my bare hands. And I’m very glad we have the rule of law to stop me from doing that.”
I’d venture to also guess, as a film historian, the Japanese entertainment industry is not as old or as well practiced at this stuff as the West is. There’s still a learning curve to figuring out handling fan interaction and obsession, as an industry, with their talent. We have a century+ of dealing with these…
