Because lots and lots and lots of Latin people actually do support it and did ask for it? Do you think the culturally-specific organization featured in this interview was bullied by someone else into using Latinx to describe itself?

This is such a great point. Ever irritant he has ever had to deal with in his life has “gone away.” He literally doesn’t even understand the concept of adversity. 

That is a valid theory although it doesn’t address the fact he couldn’t immediately pronounce a near-universally known proper noun after MULTIPLE tries

The number of conservative/racist white people who manage to locate a drop of “Navajo” or “Muskogee” blood in the misty reaches of their ancestry is pretty remarkable 

uuuugghhhhhh if Talib Kweli had stopped with his very first tweet back at Moody, he would have made the valid point he was trying to make and he could have just moved on. 

I agree with your assessments. I am puzzled that Shannon thinks the Oregonian should have written a whole editorial about why this comic is a valid statement by its own author. That’s not the editorial board’s job. They printed a letter and then printed a response from the cartoonist with a tiny bit of what I guess…

If you praise him you are a great person until the moment you have some mild criticism. 

I’m mainly wondering if they have more interaction than occasional interactions on a tv soundstage and chance meetings at award shows. Does Katy Perry think she has any special insight into Ellen’s personality?

Don’t forget the effect on your teeth! My opinion, nothing ages someone faster than a mouth of rotting/missing teeth.

Also I’m assuming lots and lots of drugs? 

Berlioz’s opera version “Beatrice et Benedict” does a pretty good job of shoving Hero and Claudio into the background and focusing on the two most interesting characters.

Simply having your name spelled out in an elegant font *be* your logo is already a creative decision someone had to make. Someone also had to decide to write “the” sideways, along the vertical bar of the F. It’s possible that it’s a coincidence but it is also reasonable to investigate how they ended up with such…

Don’t forget the strippers at the nearest gentlemen’s club

Maybe Molly would prefer if King had picked a different slogan, like “Person...woman...man...camera...Arrest Breonna Taylor’s killers!” or Person...woman...man...camera...Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times!”

I have been thinking about this a lot. It’s relatively unlikely since these goons are usually armed and wearing bulletproof vests, but what if a group of people saw a friend get abducted like this and they actually managed to run the van off the road, or kill one or more of the abductors? How would our court system…

Yeah, both of these comments are true at the same time. The optics of stories like this are one of the best reasons why. 

The type of person who is primed to believe a story about a tampon purposely put in a cop’s beverage is probably also going to be outraged at the idea that it wasn’t a tampon but rather a dirty rag. They can at least continue claiming it was purposeful. The cops have no need to apologize for anything, from their…

You are not using NEARLY enough hair spray 

Does yours have a pull-cord or is there a pilot light situation?

“It’s complicated” is how you lose a republican in conversation about hot button topics
