Bam! Thank you for reminding me of the greatness of Funky Finger Productions this morning.

As someone who believed in What Splinter Could Have Been, I mostly just miss David Roth. But he gets to write for other places these days too

So, if you just accept the standard characterization of the U.S. regarding every leader that has ever threatened the global interests of the U.S. elite, yeah, Sanders’s comments seem pretty wild.

It is always the quiet ones.

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that referencing this scene is more dated than the outdated reference made IN that scene.

Actually the one good thing about Twitter is that all these assholes get up close and personal with actual humanity replying to tell them why they fucking suck shit.

“far left regimes” sound scary until you realize that his comments are pretty mild and in the case of Nicaragua if you are on the opposite side you are supporting nun murder.
