She’s got one of the biggest files in Future Time Police federation AND she managed to evade thier omniscience and violate the Temporal Prime Directive AND avoid a predestination paradox by altering her own past. That is very Badass.

yup

The problem is there are apparently people who miss the point and think Rick should be considered a role model be emulated. You would think his constant lack of happiness would be a guide.

Obviously, ACA has problems, but—the main issue the guy talks about in the thread seems to boil down to “Texas didn’t vote for Medicaid expansion.” And the reason they didn’t vote for Medicaid expansion? Because most of the people in the state voted for Republican politicians who declined to expand it (and were likely…

You’re right! I just finished up season 4 today, and it was really refreshing that it ended on a hopeful note — and like, a real hopeful note and not just Bojack seeing something and smiling enigmatically while staring into the middle distance.

Mea culpa. I just hate them so bad. Their brand of pseudo-intellectual xenophobia is just one that is particularly sour to me, because I was exactly the same kind of edgelord when I was a teenager. I was one of those dipshits who toyed with casual-to-blatant racism/sexism and used deeply flawed “scientific studies”…

“nothing fucking changes” is what a teenager says. Things change all the time. When Democrats are in charge, things tend to be better for people like me and those I care about, and when Republicans are in charge, they tend to be much worse. Government spending really does matter; so do regulations and policies.

This is a fundamentally passive-aggressive approach to political involvement. It cedes all the agency to the political party, whose responsibility is to provide a heroic, well-supported candidate who will promise what the voters want. And if the party doesn’t provide this candidate, it means that withdrawal from the…

Criticizing both sides makes it easy to avoid responsibility for letting Republicans take over and demolish the entire federal government.

If you’d rather fight the Democrats than the Republicans, then you should think about what sorts of changes to our current political landscape would make the Democrats more worth fighting than the Republicans for most other people.

Hmm, I think I totally misunderstood you! But generally kind of agree. Also sleep-deprived and lazy and multitasking and ooh look that dog has a puffy tail! Here “Puff,” here “Puff-Puff”!

Not sure what an “equal opportunity offender” is, but I think I probably agree; people everywhere commit logical fallacies.

Geez, it’s almost like Trump supporters don’t understand the basics of diplomacy, or understanding quotes in full context. But that can’t be true, right?

Jesus, link the whole quote from Obama if you’re going to pretend there’s any similarity and tone here:

Not angry at all. Just disappointed in a fellow American who apparently can’t see through the orange clown’s bluster. What you’re quoting is a simple statement of fact, but it was not delivered as a threat. It was not said to intimidate or threaten during a speech on a world stage delivered by an incompetent leader…

It’s sort of what he’s always wanted out of life.

They never said anything remotely as over the top idiotic as Trump and you know it. Neither has ever called for an entire country to be destroyed because of the megalomania of their leader. Obama and Clinton understand diplomacy, unlike the orange clown who is so used to people doing whatever he said because he paid…

You really think the alt right is the product of people who had to do chores growing up?

These guys have never had any real responsibilities in their lives.

Can’t underestimate the importance of these ships. If you want to talk about who won that war, in terms of human loss, the Soviets did, hands down. But in terms of materiel, it was the U.S. Our ability to churn out these ships, to get supplies over seas in such rapid, overwelming fashion completely outstripped the…

Agree finding out it was all fake was a real gut punch especially when you realize that the only thing keeping you from falling apart while watching is knowing that everyone is going to be ok. To have that taken out is so harsh especially given P.C. Storyline in the next few episodes.
