I’m not too certain, but wasn’t the reason some people voted Trump was that they “feared” that a woman in the white house was going to cause World War III because she would be too irrational and let her emotions dictate her actions?

I waited. Just wanted to come back and say holy shit!

The ACLU’s resistance to Trump has been brilliant not just substantively (and it has undoubtedly been substantively brilliant) but also symbolically. They have just been so consistently good at packaging their resistance in a way that makes people sit up and notice.

that would require him to last until the season premiere which is still six weeks away

Yeah, I think that’s just what it feels like for men when things are more equitable :)

I think 25 percent of these new developments being assigned as affordable housing is reasonable. These apartment units they are building look more like skyscrapers. Plenty of meat on the bone when the sheer volume is accounted for.

Her housing agenda seems pretty ambitious. Hopefully she’s not just giving lip service to density and development, because that other stuff’s going to be a lot harder if you don’t grow your revenue base. And it won’t do much to help middle class folks like yourself if Seattle freezes development and becomes a mix of…

It’s gotta be this kid:

It’s so pathetic that I would feel sorry for him if he wasn’t so dangerous and hateful. There’s a lonely 12 year old in there somewhere.

Trump is signalling his heterosexuality, otherwise the guy might find him attractive.

As someone who was in the music biz in a professional, meaningful capacity from 1998 to 2003, this seems like a flip and dismissive overview. While we didn’t have the benefit of Twitter and Facebook, the scene was vital and meant something to people of this era. That you’re unable or unwilling to understand even a…

A bunch of us were screaming all last year about the 2000 election and that Nader prick, but it’s like nobody in this benighted country has any memory.

The Greens have always been completely useless as a third party. I’m not surprised they would conspire with the Russians to bring down the Democrats in an attempt to raise up their value as a political party.

My students do not have meaningful memories of the AIDS crisis at its highest pitch — before the “cocktail” treatment was introduced in the 90s, for sure, HIV/AIDS was an automatic death sentence with a very short horizon. So I have to explain things like ACT UP, Larry Kramer, etc. It’s not as if AIDS went away, of…

I struggle with chronic depression, anxiety, panic attacks, and ptsd. And dear lord, I know that Carrie Fisher was living in a world of hurt.

Why lie- I haunt these boards in part because I need the attention I never got from dad. I forgive him though, because rare is the aged parent who would get it if confronted, and the damage has been done already; why create more suffering for everyone. Fuck it. My sister and I are taking him for schnitzel and beer…

I don’t love the people who won’t take my design advice for their PowerPoints.
