Chicago law enforcement’s reaction to Smollett’s alleged infraction is ridiculously disproportionate and outrageously selective.

I’m a gay man, and I would absolutely love to see someone like myself in the Presidency in my lifetime. But please, dear God, don’t let it be this milquetoast, middle of the road, boring, mildly weird white dude.  That’s TOO much like myself.

This is not good news for anybody other than the corporate interests it is intended to mollify, but it is ridiculously predictable news. Did anybody genuinely think a Republican president, let alone this Republican president, was really going to implement the ban of an extraordinarily profitable consumer product…

On one hand, you’ve one generation making a joke on social media to express their discontent with the inaction and apathy of the elders as the planet faces existential challenges.

I wasn’t sure until the last two word of your post, but...

I’m sorry Mr. Sorkin, you’re a Boomer not an Xer. #BothSides

Constance Wu’s frustration is completely understandable. It is difficult for Asian American actors to land more prestigious roles. It sounds like she landed one and couldn’t take it. That’s frustrating as hell. This was a cable sitcom. It was a lost opportunity that she knew might not come again.

Wu was the lead in Crazy Rich Asians and one of the ensemble in Hustlers.  She’s already ahead of David Caruso.  People always compare stars who want to leave tv shows to failures like Caruso but don’t point to conspicuous successes like George Clooney, who left ER at its commercial height in order to launch a movie…

Bratz had 40 percent of the fashion doll market, an astronomical feat for a market that had primarily operated as a monopoly. (Barbie still held strong with 60 percent.)

Yes of course it was Alzheimer. I was wondering what excuse a white person who come up with to explain this behavior. Because this man can’t just be a plain old racist, am I right? If you are a black/brown person making excuses for this man, then you need to get your thought processes rechecked. White supermacy…

To greater or lesser extent depending on denomination.

Let’s take a quick look at some supposedly “Cancelled” people:

Barack, we still ain’t voting for Joe Biden in the primaries when the rubber hits the road. Also, you can stop with the right-wing framing of “cancel culture.” You can “get over” that. Quite frankly, we are where we are, right now, because we’ve tolerated too much bullshit, not because we didn’t tolerate enough.

Hell Houses seem pretty inline with a number of denominations views on god. Quite a few focus on him as a wrathful diety (which parts of the Bible can easily be used to illustrate) at least as much as him being a loving one.

*chef's kiss*

I mean, I’d attribute this to the driver being out of control...but I also support Kevin Hart’s taking a seat for a while.

Well, we’re just a bunch of resentful little shits, aren’t we? Pretending the show was never good for the sake of outrage is the epitome of cutting off the nose to spite the face. Things you love don’t disappear because of context.

Okay, so, as far as I understand it, Sanders and Warren are basically running the same campaign. In terms of broad policy goals, they’ve offered the exact same stuff. Even a lot of their ideas about how to implement those goals are very similar. If you’re looking strictly at the content, it’s really a horse a piece.

I think you’re being kinda unkind to Tanden. What she’s saying is that it’s weird for AOC to credit Bernie with CHIP - the program AOC says she specifically benefited from - when CHIP’s passage is really due to Hillary, who worked harder on defining both the actual radical content of the bill and on ensuring it had…

Oh my god, this post made the Berners SO mad. lol

Can someone please explain to me why they are doing this? What about Sanders are they getting behind? I don’t understand why the Dems aren’t full on embracing Warren, who is *clearly* the best candidate.
