I don’t like to shit on Texas as a whole because I’ve got well educated, progressive friends who live there and cannot change the political culture all by themselves, but seriously, when the leadership of the state says, “It’s not OUR fault that you’re cold! It’s the responsibility of a woman in her thirties who lives…

They learned that running for national office is a license to print money with a million loopholes to cover your tracks. I guarantee you the Trump family will be using their political campaigns as huge money laundering operations. 

It seems like McDonald’s does a more thorough background search than venture capitalists and cities. Heck, we’re better off having the person working the deep fryer in charge of testing and vaccine distribution than these bro’s, because that person understands responsibility and accountability. 

Gig economy “disrupters” are going to fucking get us all killed.

Literally came down to write the same thing. "Believers in disruption" = little libertarian sociopaths who want the baseline for ethics to be "can I get away with this?"

Privileged white boys will be the doom of humanity.

“They’re two young friends who are “whole-hearted believers in disruption,” inspired by Peter Thiel’s book Zero To One.”

‘One out of every 20 Republicans wants Don Jr. to be president! Sit with that!!!’

As usual dems roll over to Rs for absolutely nothing. Vote for witnesses and the skip the entire thing? Sure, great deal made, I’m sure the Rs will play nice from now on. I also thought that while they needed 2/3 for convicting a simple majority vote would allow trump to be disqualified? Heard that somewhere…

All three officers’ widows. One was killed, and two died by suicide.

Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial was way longer.  For lying about a blow job.

The Democrats wanted to call one witness, so the GOP threatened to bring in hundreds. That witness, however, is very much wanting to speak up so I expect her to be in the media in the coming week explaining exactly what went down to a wider audience.

CALL THE FUCKING WITNESSES YOU COWARDS!!! Having testimony from Officer Goodman, Sicknick’s widow, etc, McCarthy, ETC.

Unreal how they caved after getting a fucking gift. Then this defeat lap afterwards where Raskin chickens out and then Pelosi makes an appearance...the Democrats are going to get shellacked next year…

The difference between Joss Whedon and Louis CK is that Whedon actually made things that I enjoyed, while Louis CK I never thought was funny. I always thought he was an asshole. 20 years ago I had no idea Whedon was the dick he’s now coming out to be and I was enjoying the TV shows and movies he made.

So your main takeaway from her post is that she writes funny, not that there was some (at the least) creepy shit going on that they had to make a rule like that in the first place? She was like 14 years old.

She said “He’s not allowed in a room alone with Michelle again” which sounds like it was after a specific event, not based on an existing rule.

Welp, I was looking for some kind of explanation, and that seems pretty damn plausible. Mystery solved, haha.

Double tap space bar for period and she didn't reread/bother to edit is my guess

And they’re very desirable tools for controlling a voting block. The GOP knew back with the Tea Party bullshit what these choads wanted--white supremacy and plenty of it--but Dump was the perfect conduit to channel that shit without getting it on their own shoes, until now.

I agree with a lot of this; I remember reading an interview with a survivor, and she said Jonestown was the first place in her entire life where she could walk down the street “without little old white ladies calling me n****r.”
