Yep, that’s how you’re banned. It looks like your posts go through, but if you notice no one’s responding...well, there y’go. You can also log out and search and you’ll see you won’t find your posts.

Wait, why? He was awesome.

Siri, show me why everybody hates vegans.

Yeah, I keep coming back to that, too. It seems like it was dealt with on a personal level and then it was turned into a public thing. I think the article she wrote was an important one but I don’t think it was written in good faith. I don’t think Aziz is required to apologize to her in front of all of us. He fucked…

I found him two weeks ago on kinja deals, his only remaining frontier.

He was “banned” for some reason. I don’t know if that means he’s not allowed to comment here at all or whether he’s just relegated to the greys and quit the site because of it. He’ll occasionally come by and star posts here, still.

He was publicly embarrassed, because his date wouldn’t go home. She went home with him. She engaged in oral sex with him. She asked him to stop and he did. Instead of going home, she stayed and watched TV. She has agency too.

long time lurker.

I wouldn’t even call the babe article “allegations of sexual misconduct” there was nothing legally actionable there. Using this language to frame the whole narrative makes it about “sexual assault” (which the narrator was clear didn’t happen). It was never about that for me personally (and I think most people?), but…

1. Nope. I don’t believe in dismissing for a point of view.

Sometimes the writers here come off as living in a bubble.

First of all, thank you Sophie for giving this story some pub, and by extension, thank you WaPo doing some great reporting.

So that means supporting pro life dems right

Far too many writer on the gizmo blog suite would rather be right and powerless, than have to make any pragmatic compromise.

Seriously. What the fuck is up with the clickbaity headline, “...Also Kind of Sucks”? Oh, she’s a moderate liberal and doesn’t check off every single fucking box in your personal bubble? Well too fucking bad, welcome to the real world. It doesn’t mean she “sucks” and this writer should feel bad for using that in the…

right? WTF is this horseshit? Oh, McGrath is a moderate Democrat? The horror! Since when is opposing the elimination of private insurance “kinda shitty”? A decade ago Medicare-for-all and no private insurance wasn’t even the median Democrat position, and now a moderate Dem with a military background running in fucking…

Agreed. She’s got to win over Kentucky voters, and this makes it seem like she knows exactly what she’s doing. I know there’s a lot of conversation (rightly so) about moderate Democrats pandering to middle-to lower-class white people, but if there’s any race where a moderate Democrat needs to appeal to middle-to…

Option A: Run a campaign that is tailored to the local conditions and the desires of the local voters.

Seriously. I actually think the way she worded that statement is fairly crafty. She’s not saying “I love Trump”, she’s talking about what people (erroneously) thought they were voting for (lower drug prices, less corruption) which *is* what Turmp was promising. And McConnell *is* opposed to what Turmp promised. It’s a …

...but McGrath is a self-described moderate who believes the Democrats currently running for president are veering too far to the left. She doesn’t support eliminating private insurance under a Medicare-for-all plan, nor does she support subsidizing healthcare for undocumented immigrants. She also describes herself as…
