Just give it time. Mueller has been running an incredibly tight ship all along, and virtually every piece of information we have was either leaked by Trump’s people or revealed in a court filing. He knows that if you’re going to shoot at the king, you’d better not miss. He needs to have every last duck in a row and…

It is so, so early to get this fatalistic. Maybe Trump won’t be removed, and he probably won’t be prosecuted while in office. But as soon as he walks out of that White House door for the last time, he’ll be facing a litany of charges for everything from financial crimes to (by the looks of it) conspiracy to violate…

They can also be considered examples of a future America because both will be uninhabitable hellscapes in 30 years.

That’s what I did until recently, lol. But now that I’ve moved in with my significant other, I can’t do it. She says she can’t stand waking up to news about Trump, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

For about a month a few years ago, I decided to try and stay awake better in the mornings by setting my bedroom TV to turn on automatically at 6AM. At the time I was a big cable news junkie, so I left it on MSNBC. This resulted in me waking up every morning to Morning Joe.

Yeah, that was some fucking scummy shit. This is her best attempt at a conciliatory statement, and she still can’t resist tossing that in there to Own the Libs? Like, holy shit. The phrase isn’t even all that offensive to me, but it’s exclusively used as a snide, petty pejorative in conservative circles and she knows…

Nah, Bernie’s too old, haven’t you heard? And so is Warren, though she’s ruined anyway over the whole DNA test thing. They’re going to demand, approximately two weeks before the primary, that we pass a constitutional amendment real quick so Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez can be President.

Hillary had a very checkered past on race, no question. But when a black person asked her about racial justice issues during the campaign, she would talk about racial justice. When black people asked Bernie Sanders the same things, he would pivot to economics (and sometimes, marijuana legalization).

I had a similar experience when I picked up one of those REI Co-Op Magma 650 jackets a few months ago. It had real down in it, but it was otherwise thin, flimsy, ill-fitting and wholly lacking in proper closures and, you know, warmth. I wound up returning it and buying the Patagonia Down Sweater, which is infinitely…

I think the argument is that black people can’t be racist towards white people, because they lack the power to do that. This follows the “racism = prejudice + power” definition of the word. Under that definition, black people can be racist towards other minorities if those minorities have been, or are, in an even…

Yeah, I mean, he’s a white South African billionaire. It wouldn’t surprise me if he is racist. But you can’t just link to his Bloomberg Billionaires Index profile, in which the word “racist” does not appear once, and call it a day. Also, none of those links include the comments about his alleged black American…

Yeah, that could actually work. I’m generally in favor of civil disobedience tactics like this. Blocking access to things tends to get people’s attention. It’s annoying, but that’s kind of the point.

Yes, because “setting fire to the Wisconsin state capitol, possibly killing dozens” is definitely a thing that will work and win us many followers and accolades.

“I’ve got this awesome new idea, guys. What if instead of engaging in peaceful verbal protest... we committed felony arson instead? Wait, why are you leaving? Come back!”

But but but crossovers exist and new BMWs are ugly, so everything is terrible and awful and utterly ruined for all time, even though no one is forcing any of us to buy them.

Yeah, that’s the thing. People seem to forget that both times impeachment has been tried, it has failed. Nixon might have actually been removed had he not resigned, but that was a radically different time with radically different norms and expectations—I honestly can’t see how that would happen today. If the Democrats…

Facing impeachment? From who?

The stock market is only “gambling” if you try to beat the system by picking individual winning stocks and “timing the market”. A good S&P500 index fund actually tracks the performance of the overall economy quite well—if you’d put $10,000 in an index fund 20 years ago and reinvested the gains, it would be worth about…

Trump/Pence 2020: “Hey, at least it ain’t the literal fuckin’ Dark Ages!”
