Rogue One feels more like the EU than the original trilogy . . . but I love the EU, so that's all good!

In the spirit of the two movies theme; let's make it Poe and Cassian. And Finn.

Put it this way, I don't think you can divorce the Civil War from slavery, and when people bend over backwards to try doing so, you have to wonder why.

Fair enough.

Oh, hey, cool! We didn't do a Tubman chant when I walked by, but there was a huge cheer for her!

Unfortunately, we're getting a lot of newer transplants who are more in the 'inoffensive suburban' mold. I mean, I'm a transplant too, but I grew up surrounded by those folks and I like to think I picked up a little from them.

I can get behind the whole 'King of the North' cause, because let's be honest, the idea of the 'Seven Kingdoms' is kinda stupid.

If by 'mean' you mean 'probably accurate'.

Wait, is that serious? I actually can't tell.

Fun Fact: in Maryland I know some old-timers who still aren't over the Civil War, and they use some choice terms. I've heard 'War Against Southern Aggression', 'War Against Southern Tyranny', 'War Against The Traitors', 'The Slaver's War', and 'Mr. Jefferson's War'.

Also know as a point singuhilarity.

He's definitely stupider than she is, but she's eviler than he is. It all balances out. In a horrific sort of way.

Also, presumably he saw the furor over Jackson on the $20, and decided it would be fun to piss liberals off. Seriously, I think that's his #1 driving force.

I mean, I would by lying if I said that I never fantasized about dropping most Republican voters into a world where they didn't have access to any government services, and see how long they stuck to their grits then. Unfortunately, we're at a fundamental disadvantage here. Since they don't believe in the importance…

Yeah, I got the sense that the most recent brawl was started by the right-wingers, too. Still, there's a reason why non-violence was the strategy of the Civil Rights Movement. As soon as we throw a punch back, the story starts being about "violent thugs" and not a dangerous political ideology that wants to strip us…

Ah. Is public transit a problem? I was sort of counting on the assumption that I could get into the city pretty easily.

As it happens, in my opinion we should have a $15 minimum wage (with local increases based on a cost-of-living adjustment). Nor do I support an increase in military spending, but the proper forum for these issues is the ballot, not the offices of people trying to process Medicaid requests or carry out lifesaving…

I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE THAT!

Except pornography. Nobody wants to see that.

So . . . has the period of time where we had to be nice to Moore because he was right about Trump passed yet?
