Kind of. Hollywood has to try to represent reality while making money doing it. While it does a poor job of the first, it does a decent job of the second. There are usually periods when typical stories just don’t pull in audiences and so there’s a push to focus on stories about women. It changes each generation, but…

Mike’s defending a dead friend and contemporary.

homlessness has continually increased in some major cities the past 2-5 years. You and I may be OK, but that day is coming faster and faster.

The primary is the time to fight it out. After that, we talk about “coming together.” If a good platform is created from the fight that looks materially and ideologically decent, then it should attract your centrists, bring those underrepresented “social democrats,” and maybe spur non-voters into registering.

Something tells me the staff salaries (developers/ programmers/ and especially C-suite) contribute to the losses significantly too.

Incognito is trash, almost all NFL “leadership” is trash, and this article is an uneven emotional appeal.

Dangerous take. Here in America, dogs are loved more than people. Expect the outrage to come flooding in...

Opportunity Zones are NOT the answer. Less than 4 percent of zones have recently experienced high levels of socioeconomic change, a proxy for gentrification and displacement risk. The average Opportunity Zone’s housing stock has a median age of 50 years, more than ten years older than the U.S. median—a sign that many…

It’s a sickness how people attack him on personal pieces rather than try and poke holes in his policy, which has a glaring hole in that it doesn’t address race explicitly and can thus re-create the conditions of the past several hundred years.

Pelosi is faltering and not as willful. She wants what others tell her to want and has ears everywhere. She’s a less effective Varys and less ruthless Cersei. She has power, she’s vicious, but she doesn’t have the will to act, but rather react when others falter.

That insults Sansa

She told Jon that if everyone didn’t agree with her they would suffer the same fate as those in King’s Landing.

Geez. A relative of mine, who’s mid-career has an H14. Even an ex at the same career level has an H10. How did this guy get hired?

‘Cause Gina Haspel leading the CIA is gonna be so progressive.

Third funniest? 4th place.

Even simpler, she was born to Caribbean immigrants in America and *believes* the bootstraps mythology without knowing the history of the mythology and this country’s treatment of it’s native (I know the term is tricky) black population.

Facebook has taken a *lot* of the public square, so them banning people effects public discourse.

I understand that, but Facebook as a private company has essentially become/occupied the public square. They skirt the lines of being both a publisher and public while being privately owned. In a way, if you have no facebook access you have no public voice. it’s important to have a voice, regardless of disagreement. So…

Farrakhan is much like Pat Buchanan: has a good grasp of history, says dangerous things, has right-wing answers.

I’m going to hope that his experience, skills, and mind let him carry the baton from Damon Keith, a pivotal black attorney and judge, who recently passed
