Zionism is the belief that Israel should exist and be inhabited by the Jewish people. Some zionists support settlements, some do not.

Sue made two series of a show where she dresses up in uncomfortable clothes and eats nasty looking food and gets treated like shit by Giles Coren. If that’s not love, I don’t know what is.

The reason it’s so common to claim Cherokee heritage in particular is that the Cherokee Nation (the largest of the federally recognized Cherokee tribes) does not have a blood quantum. They require someone to prove that an ancestor was listed in the Dawes roll in order to enroll. After a few generations, there are a…

Behind? Paid parental leave is VERY rare in this country. I work for the fucking state and we don’t get it yet.

Jordana Brewster seems to have been written out of the movies, Eva Mendes and Devon Aoki were each in one of them (Eva Mendes was in Fast Five but it was a cameo), Elsa Pataky was fridged in this one, Gal Gadot was fridged two movies ago, and Charlize Theron probably won’t be back. I do like Natalie Emmanuel’s…

When Big Brother contestants lose certain competitions, they become “Have Nots” and are only allowed to eat PBJ/pickles/slop (really it’s like plain oatmeal) for a week.

Gal Gadot was killed off TWO movies ago (Elsa Pataky was killed in the last movie) and Jordana Brewster seems to have been written out since her love interest’s actor died. Hardly a great sendoff to any of the asskicking women of the franchise.

But that spotlight on Ossoff also drove Republican votes. The reason the guy in SC came close was because that race flew so far under the radar. With so much national attention on GA-6, Republicans weren’t gonna let some liberal Jewish Democrat pick off one of their safest seats.

Rabbi Raquel is my favorite character on this series, hands down. I started watching this show because I was interested in growing trans representation on TV (although I know at the start there was a lot of pushback over Maura being played by a cis man), but I definitely stayed because of the complex and REAL…

Also, the students had not matriculated yet. Matriculation is the point at which their due process rights kick in and the school would have to put them through the conduct process. While they are still just admitees, Harvard can tell them to fuck right off ASAP.

They’ll be on the clock while they make the delivery.

I think Caramoan is disliked by a very vocal portion of Survivor fans, but that portion of fans also overestimates how many people agree with them on hating it. Caramoan is by FAR not my favorite season but I don’t think it’s the worst season ever (then again, I liked One World, so ymmv).

for some strange reason Debbie seemed to think

I actually like Brad Culpepper a lot as a Survivor player. He was a fun villain to root against (and shout FUCK YOU BRAD CULPEPPER! at) his first time around, and this season we have been treated to things like his antiquing. I think he got dealt a great hand this season. He was a premerge villain who everyone would…

He did try to kill her as well, though. He chased after her and tried to light her on fire as well, but was unable to.

Dickerson stays so frustratingly neutral on Gabfest (I mean, I get why he has to) that I’m excited to see how much David Plotz has to badger him into discussing this.

I love Michelle Obama, and I love how she used her time as First Lady, but I don’t think it is particularly important for the wife of a president to be involved in anything. It is an unelected position and amounts to more unpaid labor that wives and mothers are expected to do. I think Melania is a horrible person for…

That’s true and I agree with him on that. And yet he continues to enforce his economic purity tests. There are a lot of places in this country where $15/hr min wage will tank a candidate, but you don’t see him talking about how in certain races you have to run/endorse a candidate who doesn’t live up to his standards.…

I think you misunderstand the issue. I am not a “blue state snob,” I live in one of the reddest states in the country. Of course I want Mello to win. What I DON’T want is for Bernie to continue to enforce his economic purity test but decide it is ok to be anti-choice. I actually agree with him that sometimes, we have…

I don’t and would never want a heinous Republican to win over an anti-choice Dem. if the choice is between two anti-choicers, I would pick the Dem every time. What we are concerned about is Bernie’s failure to endorseother candidates because they fail his progressive purity test on economic issues, but his willingness…
