John Salmons was on that team too. That’s a guy.

Please. It is possible to just really dislike a woman.

it’s unclear whether Flynn lied to the White House about his conversation with Kislyak, the White House lied to the media, or both, or whether something else is going on.

“baba booey!”

Scarves ain’t cheap, yo!

The idea of male brilliance is especially pernicious because it’s demonstrably wrong. Girls often do better in school than boys, and are more likely to finish college.

Just stumbled into this comment thread. I’ve never heard of the model you’re talking about but I find it interesting. Can you refer me to further reading/resources?

Can we stop with this? It’s getting pretty tired. Like a certain horse gif I’m refraining from using right now.

It looks like a lot of us are committed to being vocal about not taking this shit. If we keep it up, this administration will be deeply unpopular and occasionally (like with that attempted neutering of ethics oversight) they will be cowed into abandoning their latest bit of lunacy. To the extent that they succeed in…

Or hoarders of wealth. Parking money in foreign bank accounts and empty homes is not great for the American economy and that’ll happen PLENTY.

“If you don’t like it don’t do it” is fine if we’re talking about any number of other things, but if you believe that other people are committing murder, it’s not enough to sit back and just say “nah, not for me”. That’s something you’d have to try and stop.

Sorry, now I’m the one who’s confused.

First of all, this is not my position. See earlier statement of agreement with you and distancing use of third person pronouns assigned to the other side. Seriously, I got all icky feeling when you started saying I believed this stuff. Eww. 

I agree with you completely. They wouldn’t. Your “unviable grouping of human cells” is not what they are looking at. You’re still failing to understand their perspective.

Ahh, but does that prevent one from being a feminist?

Yeah, but see it from their side. If you believe abortion is the same as MURDERING AN INFANT, that’s not a women’s autonomy issue, that’s a preventing murder issue. Viewed through that lens there’s really no conflict with women’s rights.

Yes, for now. But it at least has the potential to and ostensible purpose of being a force for the common good. It can be again.

Hey. Coming from a place of love and concern . . . you sound like a lunatic. Like, I think I can see the spittle coming through the screen. If you want to tell people off, or make a cutting remark, you need to be sane first.

I don’t think you should apologize for wanting your relationship with your family to be something other than a political shouting match sometimes. Frankly, it’s pretty ridiculous that you think it should.

Dude, it’s bread, not kryptonite.
