hmmmmmmmm, though it’s sort of adorable to imagine a version of me that would stop doing something simply because my boyfriend wanted me to, that’s not what happened here.

I’m a long time out of college but my parents advice would have been “do better at another school and transfer”

There’s plenty of speculation within the UT staff that parents are trying to place their kids in somewhat less competitive schools to game the 7% rule. Not the easiest thing to measure or study, but that definitely sounds like something a certain type of parent would do.

Look out on Ireland because part of the peace is tied up with the EU.

The Guardian had a great write-up of how immigration fear was the biggest driver of “Leave,” not immigration; in neighborhoods with large percentages of recent immigrants, the majority of British voters voted “Remain.”

When we started to enforce Prohibition, there were people who supported Prohibition that were shocked and surprised to learn that beer and wine were illegal in addition to hard liquor.

My feelings on Scottish independence have done a complete 180 in the last 12 hours, which may be the fastest reversal I’ve ever managed.

A protest vote. You know, like voting third party because Bernie didn’t get the nomination...

“You’ve Just Voted to Leave the EU. You Won’t BELIEVE What Happens Next...”

Those same people who love to whine about the Electoral College (“but whyyyy can’t it just be one person, one vote”) lean heavily on its existence to allow them to vote with their precious consciences instead of their fucking brains.

He probably thought it was rigged like the democratic primaries.

Not a chance for me; I’m okay with Clinton, she’s infinitely preferable to Trump, and I realize that neither Stein nor Johnson have a chance of winning (and I don’t know enough about Johnson to know if I find him preferable to Clinton). However, I do the the sense that some of Sanders’ supporters are refusing to vote…

Buzzfeed Quiz. If he were an ice cream he’d be a Dilly Bar.

Maybe this can be a lesson for all of the Americans who want to vote for Trump in November as some sort of protest vote.

So let me get this straight, the UK is about to leave the EU, the PM is about to resign, and the world economy is about to go on a tailspin... all because more than half the UK thought this was make believe? How do you think your vote doesnt count? Isn’t that the point of a democratic system? That your vote counts?…

“So, yeah, quite worried now.”

Fuck this fucking idiot. What did he think this was? A Twitter poll?

Hahahahahaha good.
