The “moral and ethical” thing is neither moral nor ethical if it does not have any real world impact. Why is that difficult for YOU to understand? 

I’m surprised that you have such faith in the dispassionate, informed, reasonable nature of the American electorate. I’m just not seeing it.

If Pelosi were just in it for herself, she would have cashed out years ago.

“They let Trump go unchecked”

“The thought of impeaching Donald Trump makes House Democrats queasy.”

I feel like we’re dodging the most important question: should you eat your salad quietly, or laugh like a madman? A thousand ads have taught me to go with the latter; even the photo on this article shows a woman who’s about to lose her shit over salad.

My initial thought was that a school official contacted him and suggested his further school experience would be more promising if he didn’t raise a big needless fuss. I am being deliberately vague on what this could mean, because there are any number of circumstances in which a young man at college could find himself,…

Biden’s first presidential run was in 1984. That was 35 years ago. People born during his first primary are Constitutionally eligible to run against him in this primary.

As a guess, its problem is that it’s a word whose meaning isn’t clear. When you call someone a slur, and the main impact is to confuse them because they’re not entirely sure what you’re trying to communicate, that’s not effective slursmanship.

Never go full Becky.

“but instead of getting into their vehicle with the multiple seats the Liberals stood around arguing over who should be the one that gets to drive their vehicle over the finish line”

“I’m an old white guy”

“Curtis Blessing said Holcomb had been removed from the flight “after causing a confrontation” during the incident.”

“If you’re not on the side of the comedians, you’re in the wrong.”

You’re right, I failed to give conservatives credit for the breadth and depth of their comic repertoire. Related, here’s Seanbaby talking about conservative humor a few years ago:

That’s so true and a good point. What would conservative humor (“real” humor, not propaganda) even look like? It would be so mean-spirited that it would be all but impossible to take any joy in it.

Just yesterday, I came up with a hypothesis (and probably an unfalsifiable one no less) about where humor comes from. I figure that our remote ancestors whose brains started experiencing a flicker of joy when a new unexpected ideas and connections occurred to them, had an overwhelming survival advantage over their…
