To be perfectly honest, a billionaire huckster arriviste who got rich through strategic bankruptcy and retaliatory lawsuits conning his way into the Presidency on a campaign of racism, homophobia, fascism, and misogyny, only for it to become immediately apparent that he has no idea how to do anything and is…
We should all be pleased he’s set a precedent that we have to pay companies (that make millions, even billions in this case) a ransom to keep a handful of their jobs here in the US. Okay. How is this not corporate welfare? What happened to the crushing tariffs that would FORCE companies to stay that he promised…
The Satanic Temple has a large number of atheists who use their “church” as a very effective means to challenge religious encroachment. Atheists have no legally defensible rights (believing in God is protected, not believing is not protected) so they organize under a faith and can fight this crap.
We are so screwed:
Trump appears to be ten times worse than George W. ever could be, which is saying a lot.
Things many people believed about a hypothetical Trump administration that have been demonstrated to be 100% true:
Agreed. And appreciate the non-violent communication tools others are suggesting. BUT. I have a master’s degree in Organizational Psychology, which means I took an actual fuckton of classes/practicums on critical conversations, effective communication, etc. I’ve practiced these theories at oh, every dinner I’ve ever…
I have had multiple deep dive conversations with my partner about the state of actual dialogue in this country right now. And I have absolutely no answer.
I agree with you completely. I’ve been arguing about this with liberal friends in the northeast for years now... they have no idea how terrible public education is basically anywhere outside of bougie coastal suburbs. I graduated from public school in Indiana with classmates that couldn’t read, and almost none who had…

I look forward to these every year. 2015's mashup is still my favorite; there was something so triumphant about that piece of music. 2016 is a little frenzied, but it works for the tone of this garbage dump of a year.
Let’s give Kellyanne credit where credit is due: she was very effective at connecting with the white supremacist and bigot voters, and giving them a platform.
...the American people understood that it was a deranged soup of hyperbole and bluster, accepted that for what it was and voted him into office thinking, “Hey, you know what, he doesn’t mean half the shit he says, probably, so I’m definitely going to vote for him.” In what rational world does that make any lick of…
Exactly. Hey, maybe next time the Dems should try appealing to Dems instead of Reps... and they maybe shouldn’t run the candidate already rejected by Dems. Just a thought.
Lewandowski: “ I don’t care what the Supreme Court has said.”
What is all of this Hillary defense?
I hate Kellyanne Conway with the burning passion of 1,000 suns, but feminists everywhere have to stop and point out gratuitous denigration of her appearance. That’s sexist, hypocritical, and distracts from her real, racist, cruel words and actions.
Here’s what I think: I think we’re getting caught up in grandiose actions that need to be highly visible to matter. That’s not true.
