The cops had trapped the protesters on Swann Street - no way out and coming in with tear gas, beatdowns and more. A lot of people hauled off there.

A friend lives in LA, a block from where shit was set on fire. His good friend’s family lives on the corner where they watched rioters flare up Saturday. Businesses looted in front of their faces. Their children were scared. It is a goddamned tragedy that people of color are routinely killed, abused, targeted,…

DC’s Metro service will be shut down earlier tonight. Were it to go forward and Metro workers attacked driving normal evening routes, would you promise that you’d not claim it was asinine/dangerous to send unprotected civil servants into an active riotous protest? The protests were in multiple parts of the city. In LA…

Agreed. I don’t watch “life programming,” and I don’t watch reality TV other than certain non-drama game shows (Amazing Race). Maybe Say Yes to the Dress occasionally. But people’s lives - and more importantly - their kids’ lives should not be content.

I like how it’s fairly obvious that she curled her hair for the video. What’s the right hairstyle to sit in your white schema and tell the world you gave up an adopted kid you had for years.... Hmm, a nice fat barrel curl. 

Yeah, I figured that was the case, and didn’t want to click on any of their videos at all, but I suspected it wasn’t that they *just* gave him up. Really really ugly.

The one thing about my dogs is that they are never fickle about where they eat, sleep or drool.

Another note: try to not over-reward your pet’s mild/modest anxiety. If their acting anxious gets them special attention that they like, then they will bring out that behavior more often. Just as if you end up caving in and giving your dog a cookie after 20 minutes of whining, your dog now could believe that it now tak…

Fuck these people - and almost all others - for living their lives online. Yes, it generates an income, but so does a lot of other stuff that people shouldn’t do. You sit down to a video and say it’s the hardest... video you’ve ever had to make publicly? Then thanking your viewers... and their nice comments. Maybe…

Yes, just as some countries have the corona-only hospitals, I think we just need some corona-tolerant-only states. You can go there. You can do whatever you want. You can have hospitals (if people agree to work in them), but you can’t travel AT ALL back over here where we’re doing our own thing. We’ll see you in 2…

And motorcycle helmet laws.

I think we have to agree to fundamentally disagree about this. Whoever paid her did not pay her because she was one woman who got an abortion - rather they paid because she was THE WOMAN who won the right for all American women to have an abortion. So, I think most of us would disagree that she didn’t take $500k to…

I know why a guy might have life circumstances to lead him to knock over a liquor store, but it doesn’t make me happy or support his decision to knock over said liquor store. And by the way, I’m happier with a guy knocking over a liquor store than the poster child of a case turning on that case that has the potential…

I’ll take issue that “America” owes her anything. She was a nominal plaintiff, and there would have been another one very shortly thereafter, same as the other nominal plaintiffs in landmark cases. Instead, those who directly profited off depicting her or her story owe her some debt. Further, you could make the…

Ah, the feel good rape movie. My husband had me watch it for the first time a couple years back, and he was like -- wow, this movie is exceptionally problematic!

But also, if someone were comparing you to Goldie in the first part of Overboard, it is worth a 5 minute soul-searching to verify none of the comparison is true. Because being called Goldie Hawn in the opening of Overboard is worse than being called a cunt.

He used to co-host the later hour(s) of the Today Show, and he was very kind and genial there. Then he made this PSA, and with the Make-A-Wish stuff, you just think, this is a good egg. I’m okay with a Dwayne Johnson - John Cena 2020 ticket.

True. It’s worth noting that we should all be careful with the ticker tape parade, because it’s not flat everywhere, and if the curve is flat but the numbers are too high, healthcare facilities could still be overwhelmed. That isn’t the case, but the concern isn’t just about the curve anymore.

CC Lemon drink (it has the juice of a billion lemons in every bottle) from the konbini or vending machine or GTFO. I love it so much.

Oof - but unfunded/underfunded pensions are a morass I should have added to that laundry list, too. So depressing when you think about everything...
