This entire discourse has reeked of “everybody involved desperately needs to Log Off For Like Two Days” and truly, that’s what we should do. 

If this was really a Joker movie for our time, it would have been about a psychopathic grifter who convinced a bunch of VC firms to fund a venture that was actually designed to kill people.

He’s not even a tech bro, he’s a sports bro! Before he was the politics numbers guy, he was the baseball numbers guy. Until it got transferred to ABC News last year, FiveThirtyEight was literally owned by ESPN! ESPN!!!

Anyone who donates to multiple candidates is a psychopath. Who are you people? Show yourself you spineless cowards. 

Congratulations on leaving what is easily the most deranged comment I’ve ever received in my year of working at Jezebel lol. 

It’s projection and shame. “We shouldn’t be ruled by emotion” equates to “I can’t control my emotions and it’s fucking embarrassing whenever I stop to think about it. So let’s not think about it, ever.”

Shit like this is why I genuinely don’t care when cops get clapped in the line of duty. The whole system is broken and until the police subculture becomes one that doesn’t ostracize the “good” officers for speaking out about this stuff (thus preventing them from speaking out) they can all kiss my ass.

It’s good thing that Trish gave up on music because that song was not good.

Acknowledgment of complicity / guilt can be a dodge in place of meaningful action, or it can be a first step followed by meaningful action. It’s the meaningful action that tells you something about the sincerity and intentions.

Okay, next do an article on the number of Peeps in Big Bird.

That is awesome.

Orrrrrr...

The training to be a Marine is way harder than the training to be a cop. They pick the low hanging fruit.

Blue Lives Matter is a backlash to the Black Lives Matter movement, which was started because of the perception FACT that police often use more force than necessary, especially on those who are black.

Still a murderer. We have a justice system based on due process for a reason. Because murder is not justice.

The job of the police is very specifically NOT to “punish.”
In fact, we have a lot of laws to prevent them from taking that into their hands. You understand “law”, right?

PreHydra Steve was not a fan. They might as well have just put tribal tattoos on their uniforms and drive Hummers.

I’m only guessing here, but if you go to YouTube and search for “Mitchell and Webb Are We the Baddies,” you’ll find what he was trying to link.

I’m pretty sure when your logo’s a skull it means you’re the bad guys.
