Also worth noting is that a federal judge in FL ordered the elections boards to allow voters with ballots rejected for signature mismatch (or other dubious reasons) to challenge that rejection.

The thing is, for the conservatives in America, no poor person really suffers their poverty enough. No matter how desperate their circumstances, they haven’t been humiliated enough for the crime of being poor. I remember Megyn Kelly on Fox a few years ago sputtering in disbelief that poor “urban” people should have…

I don’t want you to think I’m trying to erase anybody’s identity, because that was certainly not my intent. Like I said, the Green Book was one example (and one that, you correctly note, was particularly important for Black people). But travel in the US during Jim Crow was dangerous for anybody who was nonwhite,…

I am saying it looked like it was going to be good, and then I read a negative review from a source I trust, and now I have … concerns.

goddammit, I really wanted this film to be good (if for no other reason than wypipo really need to learn about the Green Book, as just one example of how treacherous traveling in the US was for POC back then. After learning that, white dudes seeing the great big open road and going on an adventure [in my case, reading…

“We hope to change [That Asshole’s] heart,” brings to mind the following:

Hee hee! Are you ready for the pain, GOP? Because here comes the pain! TICK TOCK MOTHERFUCKERS.

Buzzfeed has a nice photo essay of some of them. It’s all just terrible, the scale of destruction. That other video that’s making the rounds, of the guy who narrowly escaped being burned alive in the Camp Fire, only to return to find the charred bodies of all the other people who were right behind him, is…

Yr Wonket had an article about a month ago that absolutely nailed it: that Access Hollywood tape? That didn’t imperil his candidacy; it sealed the deal. You know why? Because, after talking about sexually assaulting women, he finished with, “and they let you do it.”

I really want to relish the looks on their horrible faces as the walls close in.

jeez, not one of them looks to be smiling sincerely.

English agriculture being reduced to subsistence farming thanks to Brexit would be a suitable outcome.

And right on cue last night, a bunch of dudes in a Slack channel I use took this story as a springboard to make a bunch of jokes at the expense of trans people. And this was a group I joined to get away from another group that had turned into a clearinghouse for “ironic” Shylock memes and “jokes” about (((JOOZ))),…

In fact, there is:

Good news, everyone!
