At the very least, Bernie shifted the window. He’s paved the way for a younger, less white, even more progressive candidate to go up against whatever monstrosity the Republicans put forward in 2024. We just have to find out who that candidate is.

just dropping in to say that Ben Dixon is the best independent commentator out there.

my own guess is that a lot of businesses don’t care to pay for benefits for their employees so they use temps or contractors whenever possible.

if anything is missing, it’s ricotta.

yeah whatever man.

so who the fuck should we be voting for if not Sanders

“I’m going to walk with integrity because at the end of the day, I want everyone that’s watching me, every eye that’s on me, to look at me and say, ‘You know what, that’s what we want to be, that’s the example that we like.’ And so, I’m more American than him. So, when they were chanting ‘USA,’ you damn sure…

Pete Buttigieg still ain’t shit though.

I stand up because my knees, ankles and back hurt from being crammed into those uncomfortable-ass coach seats, why the fuck else would I be standing up immediately? How can anyone relax in those things? Thankfully I have lost some weight so now I can just barely wedge my fat ass in between the armrests (confirmed on…

I thought this was common knowledge. I grew up hearing:

I really wanted a young, fiery, brilliant, non-white progressive (supporting Medicare for All, cancelling all student debt, reparations, making sure big companies pay what they really owe in taxes, prohibiting discrimination against sexual orientation & gender identity in public & private hiring nationwide) for a…

I feel very fortunate that despite being born in the South, both my parents and grandparents had pretty much no affection for the Confederacy and therefore didn’t pass it on to me. Also a lot of the people that I knew who went around wearing Confederate flag stuff were rude, trashy people so that colored my…

first thing i saw when i saw the title: “bet the thigh’s gonna be pretty high up”

It’s not even a real slur for Italians. Jack Woltz rattles off all of them in the aforementioned film.
