I feel bad for anyone living in the UK that is above a US14. There is literally nothing cute for them to buy in any stores. They all cut off at UK18. 

“He also said some of his best friends were African American,”

No, he’s topping the polls because of name recognition and because a lot of people like him and like his politics. Just because you don’t doesn’t mean he isn’t popular among a lot of democrats.

Is he actually reconsidering his long-standing policy of “I can touch women whenever I want regardless of whether I know them ot whether they want me to because I’m a Powerful Yet Genial Old Man”?

I agree with your points, but I have to be pedantic about this:

This is why I refuse to trust any of the super low cost carriers. It’s not just the comfort level (or lack thereof), it’s this kind of crap. 

I feel the same way about brain surgeons. Values are definitely better than experience.

The GMG sites are the only ones I’ll whitelist because I believe in their content so much. It would be cool if Univision would sell the sites to someone who would manage them better... anyone know if Nick Denton is looking to buy?

Sadly, it’s not likely to change any time soon. It would require a federal law and the only thing the government has done since Telecom 96 is continue to destroy media in this country.

“But the band briefly reunited—this time with The Cure’s Robert Smith newly onboard as guitarist—to record “Dear Prudence,” and unexpectedly scored its biggest hit ever.”

“Every Breath You Take” is a song about stalking someone and it was #1. What, exactly, is your definitely of, “dark”?

Clearly you’ve never listened to Simple Minds’ early catalog.

there are probably a few things you half-remember

Then that is what she should have said. You are bending over backwards in all of these threads trying to defend what she said with your interpretation of what you *think* she said. She had some good stuff in that statement, but she also had some problematic stuff in it, too. It’s okay to both praise her and hope she…

It’s impressive how you just overgeneralized a whole bunch of women because you assumed they were going to overgeneralize a celebrity. Congratulations, that’s some tone deaf bullshit on your part.

The Russians didn’t murder six million Jews and thousands of others, including gay people and Catholics. I think you’re safe.

False equivalencies. Daleks don’t look like Nazis and NPH doesn’t have a swastika anywhere on that costume. They are banning Nazi imagery because it’s being used *right now* by anti-semites and racist garbage people. I’m sure your SS uniform can be used at a later date.

If they went through a lot of effort to put together a Nazi costume in today’s climate, they are pretty tone deaf. A little disappointment would probably benefit them.
