I watched the original interview and the article leaves out that all of this was said in a very light-hearted and facetious manner. He wasn’t seriously complaining about not being recognized. He was joking about it. I have fairly neutral opinions regarding Bacon but the article sort of misrepresents the interview.

Nah, fuck ‘em. Fuck all this “need to be nicer to the fucking morons” shit that the left has been pushing in elections. If the alt-right wants a war to prevent them from installing fascism, then let’s give them a war.

A year ago I could not imagine we’d be here, at this point, commenting on such a response from such a person representing the highest office in the U.S.

It’s also the way to combat Anne Coulter. Sadly few people seem to get it.

The best way to handle Milo is to starve him of attention. Don’t voice outrage at his stupid statements. Don’t print interviews with him. Let him have his troll festival but stay away. Don’t have a counter protest, that just feeds the beast.

Granted, we are responding to an ad with a specific example of engagement ‘building a bar/bar furniture’ but I was thinking more about some of the progress that was made by Africa Americans during the Civil Rights era; they put themselves on the line to struggle for their rights. Of course we should now be past that…

I’ve noticed that some people who are racist/sexist/homophobic/transphobic, etc can change their tune once they know and care about someone in said group. It helps open their minds. Obviously not every asshole has this experience, but I’ve seen it happen around me with certain people.

I’m not saying turn the other cheek at all. I’m saying to engage. Fighting for ones’ rights is rarely going to mean talking to people that already agree with you. It sucks and its not fair but someone has to do it and of course I understand that not everyone can. I assume they are all actors anyway but the woman in…

Whatever, maybe I’m a sucker but I actually liked the ad. Life is complicated but some things aren’t - if you’ve worked with someone to build something and had a positive experience, why wouldn’t you sit down and socialise with them. Engaging with each other more and straying from our self-imposed “camps” is what we…

Best 80's Madonna song...

Oh, ffs. Seriously?

Stop debating seriously with a notorious troll. No, he doesn’t have a point.

Cats generally seem to know tone better than words. My elder cat, who I’ve had since she was five months old, will come when I call her name. She will also come when I say “Netflix” or “Bacon” in the same way I tend to say her name. My younger cat, who I adopted as an adult, will respond to “Kitty” and nothing else,…

I always game but after work and school work are done, never before.

I only care that the word in the first sentence should be populace, the noun, not populous, the adjective.

I worry about the outing that goes on. What if it’s the wrong Tami? And these things devolve so quickly to rape threats and death threats. It’s awful what Tami did but it doesn’t help if we’re awful. (We meaning in general, not you and me.)

From Lake Arrowhead here, and can confirm that many of the year-long residents on the mountain are racist troglodytes. I hate how beautiful rural areas are often that way. Thankfully an influx of LA hipsters are buying up the cheap cabins and are helping to make the culture groovy again.

No, a small bit of criticism is when your friends or co workers politely tell you that you fucked up or could have done something better. Having a twitterstorm rage at you, thats literally thousands of people unloading a bunch of verbal garbage over your head. In terms of scale of criticism, its hard to make it…

This will probably get lost in the comments, but the point of adding just a little bit of salt to the water is NOT to lower the boiling point per say, but more to provide nucleation sites for the boiling bubbles to nucleate on. Put it another way. In a perfectly clean, relatively smooth pot, there will be few…
