I also tend to think much of the change Sanders aims to foster is largely inapplicable, but my concerns have more to do with the concept of importing a Scandinavian model of "socialism" (lol) into a country where none of the prevailing social conditions that allow that model to function in Scandinavia prevail, at…

Sanders has high favorability though, the highest in the whole race, actually. Trump has the lowest or among the lowest, and Clinton is also very unpopular. I assume a Republican hit campaign would have lowered that a lot, but it's hard to think it would have been enough to make him significantly less electable than…

The graphic at the top makes the article.

I don't even get the point of that tattoo!

pulp is still alive and on twitter. SBT failed, for better or for worse.

I saw it in a moody, supposedly haunted former Masonic temple with Egyptian theming. The crowd was respectful. It was about as ideal an atmosphere as I could have hoped for.

Yeah, I'm surprised it took so long for major Republican figures to openly side with Trump. Getting into his inner circle early like this really allows one to be a major power broker in the future, regardless of what happens, I would think.

One certainly wants a politician who has a deep understanding of how politics works, or gives some indication of having enough political intelligence to accomplish their goals. Prior experience is just one indicator of that, and not even necessarily the most reliable one. I suppose a lack of political experience is a…

Technically Napoleon didn't have any political experience, and he did a pretty damn good job. All hail the 18th Brumaire of Donald Trump!

I wish the Republican primary was a musical! Might make it less depressing.

I don't know, there's a part of me that finds the idea that a human mind could develop a judgement so wrong, so rebellious against the holy laws of God and man, so utterly perverse to the dictates of nature and conscience, somewhat inspiring, actually. If a mind can accomplish such a phenomenal repudiation of the self…

"oh really?! How does a show with a premise like that even get ok'd?? Thanks for the heads up #notforme #notwatching"

The sources I'm seeing for this story so far look kind of wingnutty, but I'm hoping there's something to them, and they sink his campaign.

I shall play him, and the chords I play shall resonate for centuries.

I keep wishing that Valencia would be granted more complexity and dramatic depth by the show. After all, a fuller fledged characterization of Valencia would grant Crazy Ex Girlfriend the perfect opportunity for tragedy in the most authentic Hegelian sense. We would witness a woman with equal right to prevent adultery…

This show is more surprising and less predictable than it initially appeared. It's gone directions with Greg which do not seem to remotely resemble the telegraphed, predictable directions in the slightest.

That precum joke was astonishing in its balance between literate sophistication and sheer juvenilia.

I have had only spiritual marriages, but harlots of the spirit have indeed interfered in the most loathsome manner.
