Counterpoint: unless your life is in danger, do not retaliate. Seriously, we teach this shit to kindergarteners.

It’s there too. “If you can convince the lowest white man that he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him someone to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”

How do we communicate that message to the right wing of the country? The logical take does not sway them. They are so motivated by insecurity and fear that we can’t even help them.

Our elections historically were batshit insane with candidates slinging mud at each other relentlessly. They just didn’t use our modern vernacular and it makes the old timey news ads seem quaint. Truth is, this shit has always been Palin-esque. 2012 was a bit of a reset button for presidential politics, which helps us…

I’m hoping his apparent early stage Alzheimer’s progresses to the point that he randomly starts removing clothing and his hairpiece during the debate.

I have problems with the notion of “winning” debates or “beating” Trump. It all comes down to perception of voters. If Hillary delivers what would traditionally be considered a perfect performance and Trump literally vomits on her, Trump supporters will still count that as a win.

Self interest. She has to have a plan for getting money out of all this. No other explanation.

I’ve been really scared of him because it seems like people underestimate the power of crazy to rally other crazies to action. And that action is detrimental to those of us that aren’t morons.

It isn’t forever - they will probably pry it up and re-sell the space later. Or, that’s what the Giants did to my brother and his Pac Bell brick. They were nice about it, and mailed him the brick.

The Spanish didn’t exactly have their act together either. They had to wait for disease to do the job for them.

There is this thing called collusion, that is normally a bad thing, but in this case is a good thing. If all reporters tell him no, then he will come around.

If we can’t be jealous of the independently wealthy, then who can you envy-hate from afar?

Idk what it looks like on iOS, but on Android, it just says “update ready to be installed” - and you click on that to clear the notification. It reminds you later if you say no. The mindless option is to say “yes.” Since most phone things besides messaging are mindless, it’s not crazy that people are clicking “OK"

So you are OK with some drugs but not others. Dumb take

Well, if you want to harp on ADHD and asthma, fine. Dumb, but fine. The thing that should stand out is the way that our sports destroy the bodies of our athletes. Pain and inflammation are normal enough that injecting athletes with drugs to help them limp through the pain is normal enough that it makes it into video…

There is a fullback from Stanford (I forget the name) who does his flip throws with crazy flat arc and high speed. They basically come in like corners or free kicks. It just depends on the thrower if they have the technique down, but when they are on, flip throws beat regular throws.

Listen to some NPR or watch Vice war reporting. You get to hear about the failures of the world in Syria and feel like a terrible person for having the privilege of being born somewhere where people aren’t at war.

Rank-choice voting should be a thing so this doesn’t happen

Half of the teams won today. That’s not news. Baseball-related whimsy? That’s news.

You are only allowed to care about one thing at a time! And be sure to fix every other problem on the world before pointing out bad shit that is happening!
