Spending the money is supporting the people who believe this nonsense. Literally putting money in their pocket. And don’t forget, it’s not like these people just want to have their beliefs and live quietly. They want to force their beliefs on everyone else through both legislation and textbooks.

Wow you are so different from these people with their confederate flags and Hilary pinocchio billboards. I mean, they spend their hard earned money to get a “history lesson” from people who think the earth is only 10,000 years old. Man, these stupid hicks and their poor spending choices. Good job not falling into that…

I am in the process of training my husband out of using retard/ed to mean foolish. It’s working! This is a thing I care about. But I still giggled at your comment. Gotta laugh so you don’t cry.

Just keep pointing at stuff. That is literally all I have. I’m going to go the route of gentle skepticism. I’m having a very long conversation also in this thread with someone who is apparently ideologically on board with my own views but who keeps making excuses for the Trumps. It’s amazing. And I don’t expect there…

Oh my fucking God. This is why we need to keep discussing this. You know what never even occurred to me? Where her security was. I got so focused on how the hell she ended up on that flight and why, I completely missed that very fucking important point.

This is why I’m having loooong discussions about this in the comments section. It’s super easy to point to the yelling guy and have reasonable people agree that it isn’t helpful or impactful. Especially because then no one is questioning exactly how this was even able to happen.

It is fascinating to watch the power this has over your thinking.

Since you obviously took some time to write this, I am choosing to respond to (and not dismiss) your comment. I have said exactly zero about the Lasner or his behavior. I have neither defended or excused it. I am fully aware that screaming “false flag” is nuts. And I haven’t.

So your comment feels like you are disagreeing with me (hard to convey tone I guess) but then you very clearly and concisely lay out exactly why this is propaganda and how it will be used.

Everybody in the comments feeling bad for Ivanka........guess what, you’ve proven your inability to resist propaganda. They just recontextulized her as “just a mom trying to fly with her family.” And you are sucking it up. My god people. Have a cup of coffee and use some critical thinking. Coach? Jet Blue? No part of…

My first trip to Miami I met a beautiful Puerto Rican guy. We parked on the beach in his ancient truck, smoked a joint, and listened to Pink Floyd while making out. It was shockingly g rated (I was 22) and what I imagine any time someone says Latin Lover. I prefer my version.

Even I’m jealous. I was 12, and didn’t really know who they were. One song sounded familiar and I was like, hey I know this song, this is that band? And I didn’t make the connection to Bjork until after Tank Girl. If I had a time machine I’d go back tell that kid “Pay attention! Only time in your life you will get to…

Yes, no one unclear on the meaning. That’s why it’s funny.

I love JoC and most of my cooking and baking is from scratch, but you are arguing ease of double boiler, various mixing methods. and sifting against scissors and a spoon. Team box brownies! Add peanut butter chips or toasted nuts, sprinkle with crushed Heath bars and try not to finish them before husband has had some.

Jeez Chad, can’t you take a joke?

Literally my first thought, even before the page loaded.

My very first real concert was U2 Zoo TV tour with The Sugarcubes as openers. But it was a stadium and their sound sucked so they were very quiet. U2 was loud as fuck. I got the short end of the stick on that one.

A very drunk and gender essentialist man was next to me at a bar one night. He was making it clear that was pink was for girls, blue for boys. We were passing acquaintances and I told him that in Victorian times, it was the opposite.

I am weirdly delighted that Santa’s example of a truly inappropriate license plate is UA HOE.

Totally forgot about this episode. Thanks for posting it!
