“Diamond (Danny Ramirez), Bex’s football player hookup is goaded by his team into hanging her from a street light as the town devolves into Purge-like madness.”

Right, but my point was that the use of anti-Semitic dogwhistles (like “rejecting globalism in all its forms”) is not at all incompatible with a “pro-Israel, anti-Palestine, pro-Muslim ban” stance (which is what you seemed to be implying in your previous post). They are in favor of Israel because they believe it will…

You’re right. Words do matter. I refer you to mine, “Die mad about it.”

The problem is, the unspoken assumption that needs to be present for this argument to make any sense at all is, “Oh shit, every single man in America has a woman in his past who can make a credible sexual assault allegation against him at any time!” The only way you make that assumption is if you have spent so damn…

The alt-right is very good at being pro-Israel and anti-Semitic at the same time. Their secret belief is that if they help Israel enough, then it will start a massive war in the Middle East that will be the beginning of the End Times, and God will open the hearts of all Jews to Christ and they will all spontaneously…

I get it. You’re talking about ‘Shaun of the Dead’, aren’t you?

Best news all day. Week. Month. Year. Look, it’s been rough since 2016, okay?

To quote ‘Leverage’, “Sometimes bad guys are the only good guys you get.”

1) Women are creating video games. They’re getting death threats as a result. Let’s not pretend their lack of interest is anything other than men trying to harass them out of the industry, okay?

I don’t know why you’d think that women generals were “shoved in”—sure, the Romans didn’t put women in their armies, but most of what we know about that time from the Romans themselves is that this was the exception and not the rule. Lots of the surviving journals of the Roman generals talk about how their opposite…

Hi. Defending an attempted rapist by saying, “Well, technically you shouldn’t be calling him a rapist...” is not a hill you should be dying on. If Brett Kavanaugh has a problem with me calling him a rapist, or a smirking sociopath, or any of the other things I am happy to call him here and to his face should we ever…

“Dear Diary,

As an additional piece of data, might I just ask Hedi Slimane to sing us a song? You’re the Slenderman! Sing us a song tonight, for we’re all in the mood for a melody and you’ve got us feeling alright.

Next week: “The accusations by the members of my daughter’s soccer team are nothing but a smear...”

He’s a rapist. They’ve been very clear over the past few weeks that they absolutely cannot be seen to accept the fact that raping a woman is a disqualification from holding political office, or otherwise virtually any Republican could have their political career destroyed at any time. They’ve even used those exact…

There was more doubt about those things at the time than is commonly remembered. Nixon seriously thought that the Supreme Court would rule in his favor, and there were enough Republicans in the Senate that it seemed unlikely for a good long while that he could be convicted even if impeached. Eventually, though, the…

Nixon did the exact same thing as Trump to try to forestall an investigation, and he wound up sprinting out of the White House like his ass was on fire.

No matter how many people do it, saying, “God, you’re an asshole, fuck off out of my life” is never harassment.

Someone already said it, but... there is never. Just. One.

If you could maybe pass along to her that there are a hell of a lot of Americans that think she’s being incredibly brave and patriotic, I’d appreciate it. If it doesn’t make you feel awkward or anything. It’s just that she’s being a real hero here, and I have a feeling she’s going to need to hear that a lot in the…
