It’s not even close to “mind-blowing.” Why would you assume that women can’t be trash? Some women are cops. Some women who work as cops have shot innocent, unarmed civilians. And among white women, a majority are Republicans who voted for Donald Trump. Majority, as in more than 50%. You’re not paying attention.

Fascinating. Doesn’t it seem possible that the writers were unaware of the slang meaning behind “jizz”? They created these films around the time that the word was first appearing in print. Also, George Lucas seems to live inside his own head sometimes. He could’ve written the word in his earliest drafts or backstories…

Semi-serious question: How old is the slang word jizz, and how well-known is it? Was this just a mistake?

There’s a weird irony to that word, “woketard.” Republican leadership and Republican voters have agreed that the cream of the crop of their party is, “If evolution is real, why are there apes?” and “When it’s a legitimate rape, the body shuts that whole thing down” and “We have to stop the Chinese bad air from flying…

He has no shame. He’s currently collecting a paycheck from us.

There are more laws governing Congress than there are governing the Supreme Court. The difference is literally by design. Justices can do almost whatever they want without consequence; it’s written that way.

The voters. He’s avoiding the voters in his home state (because they haven’t elected a Republican in more than 40 years). That’s the same reason that Mehmet Oz didn’t want to run in New Jersey. They’re deliberately picking swing-ish states.

Does he deny that climate change is real, or does he know but just not care that he’s the one causing it?

Could this be a response to calls to “defund the police”? They’re trying to make themselves sound more important. (The original announcement from the police department calls this a “crime trend,” as in, a continuing pattern. They insist that people call 911, as if this is more of an emergency than all the things they…

Most hospitals allow people to “pull the plug” on machines that keep patients alive. Should I be allowed to wander into hospitals and start yelling at doctors and families? All sorts of health care decisions (to operate, or not to operate; to take a new medicine, or wait and see) could be the kinds of choices that…

It’s not clever or original. There’s no punchline or twist. She’s just an ignorant bitch.

They didn’t discuss arresting the man and the child. They said they would arrest only the child. And so it’s not as if they were bound by the law to arrest everyone involved. Instead, they arrived at the child’s house and decided that their job was already over.

A whole jury agreed with each other, and then a judge validated their decision. You didn’t hear anywhere near the amount of information that the jury did, and you’re certainly not smarter in the legal arena than the person who completed law school and works in law every day. You’re not the expert here. You’re no one.…

Everyone knows that Jesus is no longer alive. What a weird comparison for you to choose. Any joke about knowing a modern, physical form of Jesus is obviously a joke. There’s no obfuscation or manipulation in that.

Agreed. He’s a young-ish man, but he’s definitely old enough to have legitimate, real, actual stories by now. If he can’t find anything honest to say, then he should sit down and let someone else speak. There are too many stories about real racism, and too many of those people have no voice.

I don’t know the details about his sibling’s death, but I’ve read enough of his books to know that most of his jokes are quite low-stakes in comparison. “...and then this guy named Larry or Lawrence or something said to me...” If he didn’t quote the person to every exact word, what are the consequences? None of that…

Jezebel’s summary is very weak. They only use one specific example in which he maybe did or maybe didn’t get dumped by a girl due to his skin color. But the article that they’re referencing here gives many more examples, some of which were thoroughly researched by actual journalists. In some “jokes,” he’s accusing…

Generational trends mostly aren’t real anyway. The jargon and the headlines are good for engagement, but there aren’t real lines that can be drawn between these age groups. It’s just a very, very popular myth. 

No, not really. When Marjorie Taylor-Greene claimed that wildfires in California are set by Jewish people, do you think she was actually going out to the rural Sierra Nevada to set the fires herself? When Gen. Michael Flynn claimed that Hillary Clinton wants to outlaw Christianity, do you seriously think he himself…

That’s not what this is.  Nobody cares how many men she has had sex with, and nobody cares if she got paid for it.  The point is her hypocrisy.  She has repeatedly said that we should prevent gay and lesbian people from being around children, for example.  If you’re going to defend her sluttiness, then you need to…
