I never realized before today how badly the world had been needing a Harvey Fierstein skeksis. I mean, the casting list has him listed under skeksis / mystics voice actors, and really I am absolutely here for either option.

“b/c she herself thought she was unloveable”

There is no more reason to assume that women using premium Snapchat aren’t filing taxes with any more frequency than folks who use other online employment services like Uber, Patreon or TaskRabbit, but I’d bet good money these dudes don’t go around reporting every Uber driver they encounter to the IRS.

I always assumed everyone was lip syncing in the parade because it was the end of November in New York, and there would be no way even the best singer could sing properly when it was freezing and your nose was dribbling. Like, I assumed that even as a kid.

My movie nap was ‘The Tree of Life’, which is a dull, plodding pretentious waste of film. My date woke me up at one point going “Wake up! Dinosaurs!” which was only enough to earn it a whopping ten minutes of additional consciousness.

Not only would the accommodations certainly be insufficient to address the assault, I would put money down that the ‘accommodations’ would be things that make things even more inconvenient for the victim.

I think much like the gentrification episode, it’s a phenomenon that’s hit all the major cities in such a way that everyone *thinks* it’s about their city.

Fair point.

I meeeean, I’m sure anything he’d try to pass would be either imaginary or a mess, but I *am* vaguely curious what his definition of ‘middle class’ is. My current income would be middle class in, say, Ohio, but here in San Francisco I am literally considered poverty level (about half the Median Area Income).

Yes, they absolutely did. That was *absolutely* the message moderates always gave in the past, which is what inspired MLK to determine that moderates were a big part of the problem:

Went to the comments for this. Was not disappointed. :)

“maybe he didn’t know that several accusers would come forward to reveal that ’80s Brett Kavanaugh was more Porky’s than Sixteen Candles”

Came for this. Was not disappointed.

“I don’t know one guy, including myself, who wasn’t in a bar fight.

Not a single one.”
