It’s not enforced, so they make way too much money on drinks to worry about lawsuit costs.

Yeah none of that exists in the U.S. The law technically exists, but is not enforced.

Casinos just feed you drinks. You don’t have to go anywhere; they come find you. They are free drinks, served by whomever passes by. They pass by constantly, and their livelihood depends on giving you drinks. And fifteen isn’t a scary number to most deep alcoholics.

It’s incredibly rare that one party stays in power after two terms, but we almost did it anyway. Most voters chose Clinton.

They were just saying that their defensiveness after rape made them unable to trust in a way that makes hypnosis possible. I read it as rueful, but complicated by the fact that the defensiveness is protective in this context. No victim blaming in sight, though.

We are all subject to influence at some degree, and the far end of the spectrum is vulnerability to total hypnosis. A good commercial can make you crave pizza. Salesmen and Scientologists (but I repeat myself) use minor-league hypnosis as a matter of course—mirroring emotions and matching breathing rhythm is standard…

I mean, think about it. You will be misspelling simple words and using phrases incorrectly and being a super basic, surly, unremarkable person til the day you die, but you know you’ll still be coddled and praised like a person with merit. I wouldn’t want any esteem that came so dishonestly, but I understand why you…

This “sentence” of yours kind of encapsulates it all. You know it doesn’t matter that you are barely verbal; it doesn’t impact your prospects at all. Privilege, I think, is never having to face your own mediocrity.

What comedy, what error? I’ve seen no accountability from Republicans. I only see your pressure on progressives.

I just said finished saying Thank You. It was kind of hard to get there. Leave it be.

Yep, let’s just give up. I was upset from the moment I read your defense of the worst, most horrible man I’ve ever known. It was just very upsetting. Done; no need to speak further.

Okay. Thank you.

Oh, excuse me; I was trying to be decent as you purported was important. Now you just insult me and call me names. You’re insane and are clearly a Trump supporter.

yeah, I see them in my own account too. My responses to you are still not showing up. Your responses all show up.

Okay. No, nobody else is capable of dismissing comments. I believe you, though, so I don’t know.

No, they couldn’t have. I just checked through the thread and none of my responses were there. Thank you if you didn’t dismiss them.

Thanks for dismissing all my replies. Seems like you’re fine with silencing people.

They boo her all the time and nobody defends her because she’s an adult and booing happens. No, I don’t want to cut a bitch every time; Hillary can handle herself and needs no protecting. Is Trump a defenseless child? And we are already better every single day, including this one and including the booing, so that’s…

This honestly pisses me off because it’s the shit-upon people who are always told to be more perfect. We already try to be good people in a way the stupids never will, and what we get for our efforts is admonishments to do better still—from our own allies—while the other side shits all over everybody with hatred and…

“I guess I just want to try to be ‘better’ than the other side.”
