Either the author isn’t fluent in Sarcasm, or they have some kind of other issue with Pompeo.

It is, and they’re about to lose a lot of us for good. Still silent on the idiocy coming out of Deadspin’s reanimated corpse, too.

Yes, to them it’s better to just throw money at problems.

Yep, it’s the second day in a row I was like wtf is going on here, what’s up with these articles?! 

Yes voting. For President but also for commissioners and judges and sheriffs and magistrates.

Literally- how many random American Idols are brought in for a spell to boost sales for a month on Broadway.

Yeah but voting requires standing affirmatively for something instead of vaguely against everything.

Is this the second day in a row where this column has bashed voting? 

Is Reese Witherspoon’s comment bad? Seems like a good starter list to me

that obvious virginal scene setting was so horrifying

Yeah I’m honestly just completely baffled that online shopping wasn’t brought up at all most brick and mortar stores are going bankrupt- payless, k-mart, Albertsons- the only ones that are seemingly in good shape are Walmart which got on the online shopping train pretty early and is just too massive to buckle…

The author seems to have the words “can’t” and “want” confused. The whole idea of JC Penney’s slow death being as a result of a dying middle class (as proposed by this article) is dependent on the notion that people can’t shop there (for financial reasons).

I grew up in the Rust Belt in the 80s, and our mall had Sears at one end and JC Penny’s at the other. Funny thinking back on it, but the perception always seemed to be that JC Penny’s was “fancy Sears” (although this was in a very economically depressed area).  But then a buddy of mine worked for them in high school,…

While the middle class is falling JC Penney’s death is hardly an indication of that. It is an example of a company failing to adapt its image and business model for the modern post internet world. You are trying to force a narrative.

I would head into our local JC Penny here and there when I wanted to go to Sephora. A while back, if you walked around and looked at their merchandise, they had some great brands and lots of items of very good quality, and it was reasonably priced.
Then, the problem I saw was first off, instead of sticking with their…

“No offense to electoral politics, but—actually, wait. No. Full offense to electoral politics!!!! Telling people to respond to state-sponsored racist violence by registering to vote so that they can participate in an election five months from now is fucking useless, Gagá!”

Why is getting people registered to vote “fucking useless?” It might not be the most satisfying, immediate solution, but it is an important part of the entire picture here.

oh my god Troy Donahue is even mentioned in the lyrics to “Look at me im sandra dee!” wow. great fun fact, thanks

their abandoning him to the foster care system lines up with serious demonetization rules set down on child focused channels.

HOOOOOOLY FUCK the screengrab where this white savior asshole says had the autism been in one of “her” kids (the “real” ones, not that fake adopted baby), she would’ve “dealt with it”.

BITCH, YOU ADOPTED THIS KID, HE’S YOUR “REAL” KID.

I hope that “family’s” little money-making empire falls into dust. What fucking…
