“TL;DR: At this point, every public figure (even Bernie) has shit on their boots from somewhere. We can elect to ignore (or at least not hammer on) the shit clinging to the folks trying to do the right thing, or we can insist on a level of purity most of us would reach ourselves, and wind up with nothing but a bunch…

I had a racist grandfather. Many, many white people can say the same. I also had a super off the charts racist ass of an uncle -by marriage, and my aunt divorced him. That uncle, he said the n word. And everyone just shut him down, because all of those white people knew it was wrong. We all knew outright KKK fuckery…

I can’t even listen to what Madonna said.

I’m not furious, at all.

Your whataboutism misses the point.

The posing on the guns for the Vietnamese was ...well, foolish. We can’t pretend that didn’t happen, but the “Jane Fonda passed the POW’s messages to the VC”...there’s no proof of that.

Dramamine. Try the non drowsy up to 24 hour formula tabs, and sea sickness shouldn’t be a problem. Have fun!

1970's shag carpeting left outside?

I thought Charlotte Louise was Louis II’s daughter even before he adopted her.

I loved Maureen O’Sullivan in Peggy Sue Got Married. But...I think the person swimming with Johnny Weismueller is another swimmer doing a body double for her. It is clearly MOS going in the water, and it is clearly her surfacing for air and swimming for shore at the end of the scene, with a serviceable but awkward…

Have you tried out a new coping skill that’s not “turn my brain to custard”? Like reading. Pure enjoyment reading, like silly non stress mysteries, or romances. Or Netflix a non stress series ( I am watching Midsommer Mysteries right now, and it is a great not so guilty pleasure). Or get yourself a beautiful plant and…

Could be. Could also be the Mann Act dropping like a ton of felony bricks if they did do that.

Sure, Laura! Everyone remembers what wonderful shape the Nazis left Germany in!

Yeah. Never once in my life have I “mistakenly” made anything like a Nazi salute. Laura Ingram did it, and then tried to gaslight anyone who pointed it out.

That’s how the Republicans spent the 6 million they spent in your district?

For a long time Redford lived in Utah with his first wife, Lola. The property eventually became Sundance, which started as more of a ski resort. Sundance is now, of course, a film festival. I have relatives in Utah, living near Redford for a long time. I visited often. In all the time Redford has lived in Utah - a non…

From the linked study: “Consensual sexual activity is believed to be associated with a positive emotional experience, however, Postcoital Dysphoria (PCD) is a counter-intuitive phenomenon characterized by inexplicable feelings of tearfulness, sadness, or irritability following otherwise satisfactory consensual…

A few years ago in the US chipped cards were everywhere in Europe and the UK, and not available in the US, but that’s changed. All of my cards are chipped.

And yet Viagra and Cialis are commonly covered by insurance.

Vasectomies are not always reversible. That said, I have never understood why men who know they do not want kids aren’t just getting vasectomies as soon as they can.
