Sounds delicious. Wish I had brunch.

I think we can set up a simple website on Squarespace or something, nothing elaborate, and use Disqus for the comments. If it's less than, like, $500 a month, it's easy. We can have a little donate button, $1/month and $10/year subscriptions, and I reckon the whole thing pays for itself three times over.

I'll look into that, thanks. Even so, I think you'll agree Al Jazeera is the best of the state-supported media networks in that part of the world.

You didn't invoke me in your comment? You were replying to me. You said my post was typical of the responses you have gotten from others as you describe them, which it was not.

I imagine folks are already brainstorming what we can do about this. I'd like to join the effort. Do you know where that parley is happening? Thanks.

Wait, it cannot be that Disqus only costs the A.V. Club $99/month. What am I missing? That's a pittance. We could raise $99 a day if we had to.

Wow, that seems a really harsh way to correct an eight-year-old. Your mother's end goal was good, but that doesn't justify slapping a kid. I'm sorry that happened to you. That would have hurt me pretty bad.

My dad explained it the same way, and I am sure that word never passed his lips in his life. He was a very considerate man.

That's true, but the overwhelming majority of Muslims are not white, and for the racists that's more than good enough. They mean their Islamophobia in a racist way, which obviously makes it racist. Even though ideologically Islamophobia (or any xenophobia) is not inherently racist, most white people's style of it is…

I was with you until you said Gloria was boring, but you still get an upvote. She's awesome. She's the Coen-esque fundamentally decent and persistent person, like Norville Barnes in The Hudsucker Proxy, or The Dude, or Everett McGill.

What does Sisyphus have to do with a scarab in the desert? I'm forgetful. :c

What the shit, Middle East? Al Jazeera is just about the only Muslim-operated news network with good worldwide credibility. Forcing it to shut down hurts all their long-term interests, and in the short term it'll probably blow up in their faces.

In a wager on who has the higher average real economic output [(hours × efficiency × value)/cost], white Americans or Latinos & Hispanics in America (including immigrants), the smart money would bet on Latinos/Hispanics.

My riff on this: do you or do you not understand that Hillary Clinton is a woman? and not an overt racist?

Right on. CNN can't keep losing everyone capable of discerning nuance and hiring ex-party apparatchiks—I mean, they can, but their journalistic credibility will be in the toilet, along with that piece of shit.

Holy cats, I forgot about that! Thank you.

An example of how great actors sell a joke, if they have the chops (both sets).

NOOOOOOOO!!! Too young to lose her.

Yeah, fealty is basically a synonym for one-way loyalty, which is the only thing Trump understands.
