Yea I was going to say thats a pretty big stretch there.

So where’s the plagiarism aside from the five words “back to you... the people”?

The term “microagression” is a fucking plague on society that erodes any hope for peace.

This is a woman who made a dumb mistake and once she realized her mistake she took appropriate action and apologized. But fear not, roots readers! There is still time to shame her for her transgression!

I have no idea what criteria anyone would use beyond “white guys with guitars in their band” to put Nickelback, Creed and the Goo Goo Dolls on the same list.

maybe, maybe not. But that is certainly a place for them to spend. Encouraging spending on equipment or more advertising or whatever is directly associated with more people working and more people making higher wages. stupid.

That was sharp. I discovered John Mulaney last year (yeah, where have I been?) and he’s just spot-on. His description of Trump as a real-life cartoon of a rich man was fantastic.

Yeah, the women’s title is pretty damn relevant nowadays, with Sasha and Charlotte considered worthy of being main-eventers on both Raw and PPV events. For the New Day, I think their run is coming to an end and they only still hold the titles because WWE wanted them to break Demolition’s record, but there was a peak…

It’s real. I also think it’s an ineffective way to reach out to the people being criticized.

Yeah, those titles may not have been taken seriously in the past, but they certainly are now. The Sasha Banks/Charlotte feud main-evented a PPV and their Hell in a Cell match (the first women’s one in WWE) got *tons* of praise. Meanwhile, they’re spotlighting the cruiserweight division like never before in company…

Wait, wait, wait. The New Day are now the longest reigning Tag Team in WWE history. For about half of their run, they were heels that worked to get cheap heat from the crowds until they started their babyface run about a year ago. That doesn’t seem like they aren’t taken seriously. A comedy tag-team is something like…

Good read, but I wish the whole of Kofi’s excellent explanation was posted or linked to:

Here is a required disclaimer to ensure my point is taken seriously and not dismissed as the ravings of some misguided Trump supporter: I voted for Hillary. I was not and am not terribly fond of her, but she was the objectively more qualified candidate and a demonstrably better human being. I don’t vote for…

This is so dumb. We have an electoral college, so candidates campaign around that. If it was a popular vote the campaign trail would look dramatically different. So, we have no idea who would have won a popular vote, if that’s what mattered.

The nation’s highest job should carry the highest burden of purity.

Let’s not pretend like Malloy wouldn’t have been something in Clinton’s administration if she had won. The being a dumb ass and failing up goes for both sides of the aisle. Politics is a money game, not a being good at your job game.
