Yeah, no, I cannot compute feeling “ire” at ever seeing a little girl who looks like this or having the nerve to compare this hairstyle—which looks like the girl just got out of soccer practice for fuck’s sake—to minstrel imagery.

Wait, so the prosecution deliberately underreported the sentencing guidelines and then the judge gave her a more lenient sentence for that reason?

I watched Studio 10 the next day just to watch KAK justify racism and, as always, she didn’t disappoint.

The Democratic Party abandoned Unions decades ago and this was first glaringly evident when Reagan destroyed PATCO and they did nothing. The final twist of the knife came when NAFTA was signed totally against the policy of the AFL-CIO. There is no “free” trade when United States labor, safety and environmental…

It wasn’t like it was a 180 in our relationship, so that was the last straw. I don’t want someone so proudly bigoted and ignorant in my life or the lives of my children.

Who give a shit how many union members voted for Trump? Democrats will win 2020 by appealing to their base and turning out voters who stayed home in 2016. They’re gonna lose if they try to appeal to the middle to peel off “moderate” Trump voters.

Yes, but I see differences in their trajectories. I’d argue that Kissinger deserved to be shunned in the first place, but it didn’t happen (not by a broad swath of the American population, at least.) Most Americans never cared about Kissinger at all, let alone agreed that he was a monster. (He was/is.)

I feel like there is a current family memo - don’t fly private unless you absolutely have to. I didn’t view this as a slap in the face. Just a hilarious (and obvious) PR fix. Yes, there is a HUGE hypocrisy in Megan and Harry’s behavior. BUT, everyone is focusing on this when there is a chance that the 8th in line to…

Apartheid nations are gonna do Apartheid things.

It is intellectually dishonest to pose the boycott of Georgia as something that is purely negative without noting where it has been successful in recent history - the boycott strategy was actually pretty effective in getting North Carolina to tone down HB2.

Here’s two:

She shouldn’t play this role for the same reason she shouldn’t be cast as any iconic male lead, she is not a man. 

Do you not pay attention? The few roles open to trans actors are playing trans characters. It’s not okay for cisgender actors to be taking the FEW roles that are actually available to trans actors. Scarlett Johansson can get basically any fucking role she wants. She does not need to take roles about trans folks when…

Personally, I’d like to see her try playing a person who gives a shit about Palestinians.

how does that boot taste?

I sure hope that the easily-pleased-with-mediocrity centrists don’t nominate Biden and leave us with a candidate who doesn’t win the election... again.

Really?  Based on funny texts between friends?  My friends and I are like that with each other all the time.  I don’t understand the hate for her on this site, but Cardi B is adored.  And she has been every bit as cringey and problematic as Jennifer Lawrence.

That probably isn’t even the retail cost of an average order!

So admitting this reveals my age a bit, but “The Drew Carey Show” had a joke that one of his bosses on the show (played by Craig Ferguson!) invested a huge sum of company money into researching what poor people consider to be an impressive amount of money to be offered and if I recall correctly it was $300. Though…

Yeah, Sofia strikes me as that particularly heinous breed of born-rich person who, because money has no meaning to them, thinks a pittance should be enough for anyone else.
