She is rich and has a radical Christian takeover plan to infiltrate the lives of our youth in this country.

Related to Chelsea Peretti: She once liked an ink drawing I did of her and it was the highlight of my day. I told my best straight guy friend (big fan of her’s) and his response was “Link or you’re a liar”

Also factor in the types of roles that are available/pitched to black actors.

Hate does not mean bad chemistry. Debra Winger and Richard Gere HAAAAAATED each other in an Officer and a Gentlemen and they believably pulled off portraying a couple in love.

The shit is for real. My sister tried calling at 5 am and the voicemails were still full. She has called both the PA and D.C. offices. She strongly feels she needs to say something, I told her at least send an email till you get through to a person.

This is why we let my elderly grandmother say seemingly racist things (despite the fact that the “love of her life” and father to her children was “black like midnight”): She’s too old to learn anything better and she’d just butcher anything you try and teach her.

Some people can no longer handle dairy. What of it?

Well Scalia was his hero, but he did clerk under Kennedy. Some conservatives think Gorsuch’s presence will “bring Kennedy back into the light.” Whereas we all know, old people don’t change, so we’ll see how all that works out.

He’s definitely better than one of Trump’s other choices: William Pryor.

That is what happens when you believe your identity isn’t a priority when making political decisions, while there are people with the power to hurt you who absolutely make your identity a priority when making policy.

Further proof that all you need is a few generations of separation from, what many sane people, describe as a horrific human tragedy of immeasurable proportions, before you start getting some people saying “Eh, maybe it wasn’t thaaaat bad?”

“His Dad may be an even bigger feminist than I am. For our second date, he took me to a free Patti Smith concert. A few years ago, he told me that he followed MY moral compass, so this is not the root of the problem. It’s that goddamned, awesome school.

Given that list, I see a good frying is in order.

Roy Cohn gets some of the credit from the first part.

If you read the Miami Herald’s take in this, Miami was recognized as a sanctuary city based on the fact that it rejected footing the cost of detaining undocumented immigrants indefinitely.

Because Miami Cubans, the old ones mostly, think they’re special. They were the only ones fleeing a dictator so they should get all the passes. Nevermind Chileans, Dominicans, Haitians, etc. Their struggle is the only one that matters.

Oh and when I say “read the news on Facebook” I mean the posts from The New York Times and The Guardian that I’m subscribed to.

For those non-fiction/academic info junkies, the non-fiction/totalinarism primer is also available from Hannah “Banality of Evil” Arent:

I warned some of my friends about outrage exhaustion and being led by the nose by reactionary tactics.
