Suffering is not a necessary part of exercise, nor is it a measure of a good workout.

I’m honestly more befuddled at the fruit throwing without the guy knowing in advance they were going to throw fruit instead of basketballs than I am the particular fruit that was thrown.  Once you decide to treat your interview subject with that little courtesy, I already know you’re a thoughtless, unprofessional dolt…

Of course, many black women were still subjected to the same archaic, racist voter disenfranchisement tactics regardless as they were before of such strides. (Not that Susan B. “I will cut off this right arm of mine before I will ever work or demand the ballot for the Negro and not the woman” Anthony would have cared)…

Yes, it’s true, the U.S. has a very powerful surveillance state that works closely with many private U.S. companies.

“But Trump’s relentless smallness has been a mass pollinator, and we’ve collectively become more like him.” Said no one ever about their adversary in history.
“Rebuke the devil and be more like him?” Weaksauce 3:12

It would follow though that things would be a bit different.  Rather than getting a lovable jock like President Comacho we are going to end up with a deranged lunatic “artist” like Yeezy who winds up winning the Presidency and destroying us all.

Oh I disagree. There are truck loads of people who basically live sexless lives by the time they are 50.  

who said anything about “should”? Not me.

I do think it’s fair to say that JFK got more out of the deal with Jackie O than Trump did with Melania, but ultimately the choice to marry their spouse was one about establishing station and security in life, and it’s very hard to imagine that either of them were laboring under the delusion that they were marrying a…

it’s possible the real answer may never be revealed. Kylie has been accused of cultural appropriation in the past, but this seems too overtly stupid to be real? Or is it?

As classy as she was ... it’s an apt comparison.

I think she has an ‘arrangement’ which involves leading a different secret life of her choosing

The length of that leap exists to illustrate how ridiculous I found the original commenters assertion that “transformative fanwork” is frequently exemplified by a large scale production written to be enjoyed by the masses instead of a poorly written short story on tumbler about how Hermione is an otherkin with Hitler…

Look pal I hear ya’ but don’t you think it’s a bit disingenuous to characterize fanfic as looking mostly like BBC’s Sherlock as compared to Dean and Sam Winchester incest erotica?

The people being asked to vote to remove the SROs do not have the power of the purse.

As usual, absolutism that demands change “RIGHT NOW” often overlooks the problems and drawbacks of making certain kinds of changes right now.

I may be viewing this through my own lens, but I just can’t picture someone utterly confused about how to vote in 2016 who then decided to stay home because of Deadspin.

In elections decided by very small margins, the answer can be both. A small but vocal minority can be both too small to have decisive sway in who a party decides to put forward for a 2 person national election but large enough that their constant denigration of the more reasonable choice and unwillingness to…

The Ubisoft worker was encouraged by HR to “talk it out” with her harasser.

Well if they separated distinct issues and wanted to actually weigh the merits of policies that Harris may actually be a part of enacting either now or in the future, then they couldn’t shoehorn in a potshot at a GND supporter who they don’t like because they are someone other than Bernie’s ticket.
