Good, trains rock

One of my favorite videos was the comparison of Obama’s speech announcing that Osama bin Laden had been killed with Trump’s speech announcing that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been killed (from Jimmy Kimmel’s show):

yeah, it definitely made bombing weddings and schools overseas so much cooler.

Think of all the funny zingers Obama delivered when he was killing seven year old kids with drone strikes!!!!!

“Will you become a man to be feared?”

That’s what happens when you want to serve up easy, feel-good solutions to complex, troubling problems for your audience.

“Sure there’s a teenage girl in the process of being abducted who needs immediate assistance, but there’s also this building on fire. Of course, that isn’t our job because we aren’t the fire department... Well, I guess that girl’s just gonna have to be raped. We have property to defend.” And then they jumped straight…

“This is yet another horrific reminder of the predators existing online in police forces who prey on our children,” the Riverside police chief said. “If you’ve already had a conversation with your kids on how to be safe online around membres of law enforcement and on social media, have it again. If not, start it…

First, did Stanford ever ask what this football player was doing in public? Why wasn’t he home studying or in class? If he’d been where he was supposed to be, instead of out with his friends, he wouldn’t have gotten coffee spilled on him. Assaults never happen at home or in class, and he should have known that.

While Holmes has many faults and taking into account that her venture was in the medical industry and had the potential to significantly impact patients, I can’t help but think that the justice system continues to make examples out of women who dare to ... act like men.

Stories like this are the reason rational and compassionate judges are important. From a recent ruling from the Canadian Supreme Court:

I think Weinstein is doing what I think Warren Jeffs did: he knows he’s going to lose anyway so he directed his attorney to re-traumatize witnesses all over again as punishment for speaking up.

Grift: Start a campaign. Get lots of contributions. Pay your family/cronies as campaign staff. Move money into PAC. Pay yourself to manage the PAC. Hold lots of events at Trump properties and overcharge the campaign for the events, moving the political donations into his own pocket.

Intersectionality is important.

Chappelle is a minority when it comes to race, but he’s in a place of privilege when it comes to being a cisgender heterosexual Christian. Those of us who are white need to listen to POC when it comes to racism, as it is not a thing we have firsthand experience dealing with, and those…

Alternatively, you could not watch at all rather than support such a contaminated and broken event/organization/country

It seems to me that he’s missing the part where charging for the blue check immediately makes it worthless. It doesn’t matter if it’s $1 or $100/month. If you can buy it it’s not a security feature.
