You are supposed to take those out of the deck before dealing. Who let this thing slip into play?

I think the most frustrated people with this are asshole men who think they should be drilling gender essentialism into their children. Megahits like this with diverse casts and characters that do not peg their thematic role to their gender threaten that ignoble aspiration of their’s.

For my part, I (a heterosexual cismale) read Jezebel as an antidote to ideological outrage. I see news that angers me, makes me want to go out and clock some misogynist skulls together when it seems that nothing less will allow any enlightenment to penetrate their heads. But when I come here? I see world-weary tones…

If it makes you feel any better, as a man I want to punch dudes as I walk down the street all the time, and largely for the same reasons.

I am sure it was chille at one point, before the gastronomic process (the presidential primary) reduced it to its current state.

What frustrates me is that they would rather have a president who echoes their opinions back at them about how bad a card they have been dealt than they would have a president who would actually to to reshuffle the deck and deal out new hands.

I believe the word you are looking for is “Truthiness”.

I have found that for some elders, they get to a point where they just stop caring about being polite. Kind of like, “Screw it, I’ve paid my dues, don’t have to be accountable to superiors anymore, I have nothing to lose, might as well let the world know how I feel.”

“Emergency Burbon” is a thing that exists.

As a white man, I want to infiltrate his “safe space” and sucker punch him without warning.

The problem is that people like him desperately want to legislate... it is just that the stuff that they want to legislate is utterly inconsequential (to them) bullshit that they can do as an exercise in their power over others. They get from this a sense of satisfaction that they are the dominant party in American…

We call it martyrbation.

Like, “Ewwwww, baby.”

I get the feeling it is more than what is said, but by whom. President Obama shows his birth certificate. He must be lying! We know he is not one of us! Bush says there are weapons of mass destruction in Iraq that Saddam is posed to unleash upon the U.S.? He is a good born-again president, he has to be telling the…

Maybe we should start up some fund drive? “Help brainwashed woman with children and no education escape from destructively patriarchal co-dependent family?”

No, he is definitely not a Trump supporter. He actually said that back in 2000 when I was incredulous that Bush had won on an anti-intellectual platform. I found it hard to believe that anyone would vote for a candidate who seemed dismissive of intelligence. Humble recognition of one’s mental limitations is fine, but…

I think you nailed it exactly.

Like... I know a lot of straight up idiots who believe they’re really clever and insightful.

Well, as my father once said, “You can’t just represent the smart people.”

I think some of them have a scarcity mentality of “There’s only so-much government assistance to go around and I’ll be damned if I let anyone else take a chunk of mine!”
