“trying” is highly underrated :) 

As a recovering Fundie I deeply appreciate this attitude. Thank you for being a reasonable human who also happens to identify as Christian. It’s a rare thing.

This is some authoritarian shit and it's only going to get worse. 

tRump has never forgiven New York for not liking him. It undermines his pride not having the backing of his home state

This is good!

This just adds one more thing to my emotional labor list. 

Many of them are required reading (as they should be) at public school and more progressive private schools. My comment was mostly referring to schools in extremely conservative areas (which this seems to be) and religious or other conservative private schools. A town trying to keep a book from being available at the…

You’re probabily right, but these books are never going to be assigned at those kinds of schools anyway so those kids are probabily lost causes either way.

I went to a religious high school and nothing got me to read a book faster than knowing it was banned. Those books were the only culture I got in high school. The staggering stupidity of these people is mind boggling but hopefully it’ll inspire some sheltered kids to read something good.

Yeah, I feel like there is a lot being left out here.

Absolutely agree. Not only will TV not melt their brains outright (we’re still here) but not all screen time is the same. There are a lot of educational games out there and most of the cartoons my kid watches are a lot less mind numbing than the Loony Tunes we grew up with. Lumping those hours in with hours of…

I read Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ‘72 by Hunter S Thompson (which is good, if you like HST) a while ago. The one thing that really stuck with me is the Dems were saying the exact same thing 50 years ago and it still does’t work/isn’t true.

Am I reading this right? Disney made an admitted accounting error of $496,111 that they thought was in their favor. After Nye questioned this, it took them 8 years to do (or rather release) an internal audit and when they did, they discovered that it wasn’t actually an $496,111 error in Disney’s favor but a $9million…

That was my thought too. Also the venus symbol in the logo seems pretty unlikable to his hyper fragile masculinity.

More importantly than not congratulating men who take leave is shaming men who don’t.

That’s it. I’ve run out of patience, grace, and tact. I hate every one of these fuckers.
