Yeah, this is where I remind people that, as someone on the high-functioning end of the autism spectrum and depression, we need to stop putting racism in the “mentally-ill” bag. Nobody’s objecting to mental illness here. They’re objecting to Ms. Cooper’s racism. And while there can be overlap between racist beliefs…

Yeah, but 15 IQ points isn’t that much of hurdle to overcome when love’s on the line...

Jacksonville, sweet!

Kindred spirits! Isn’t it depressing to realise as an adult how garbage those un-cited 80s and 90s encyclopedias probably were? How much “history” did we absorb that was nothing of the sort?

When I was a kid I used to read encyclopedias for fun (no, I didn’t have many friends, why do you ask?). It wasn’t until I was maybe twelve that I had my mind blown by a tiny section in one of my art history books that covered relics from the ancient kings of Africa. I had read hundreds of dense tomes without ever…

If you push REALLY REALLY hard...  he might just stand up straight.

I’d go even further. It’s not that he won’t grow, though of course he won’t. It’s not even that he can’t, though of course he cannot. It’s that he was put in charge specifically because he won’t or can’t grow.

For the moment, I’m going to assume you’re not deliberately concern trolling. But regardless, you’re misconstruing what “believe women” actually means. “Believe Women” is not a blanket statement. It’s a shorthand that we use because the more accurate statement “afford a woman reporting an assault the same benefit of…

I literally see what you did there.

I heard the stats last night on NPR and I just... for people who deeply believe that the man who ushers in the End Times is, in fact, the Antichrist, and that they are supposed to resist him at all costs knowing that “many will be fooled” and FUCKING STILL with all that drilling the bird shit right on their faces and…

Given how post-modern the evangelical movement’s conception of truth is, that doesn’t really surprise. I mean, post-modernism as an academic theory of truth was never taken all that seriously. The main insight and value of the post-modernist movement was to note that there is a fundamental distinction between what is,…

Timberlake should have kept his dick in a box.

Regardless of her (justified) contempt for Buttigieg, Klobuchar seems to have staked out a position in this primary as the person who says “no”, which is about as inspiring, if not less, than Buttigieg’s empty, focus-grouped-Obama Live-Laugh-Love business-consultant rhetoric.

You know you can add “Impeached” to that name, right? He really was impeached. The House impeached him. The Senate may have acquitted Donald J. Trump (Impeached), but the House impeached him. When you make a list of the impeached presidents, that list includes Andrew Johnson (Impeached), Bill Clinton (Impeached), and D…

where the fuck to start in this Barf Bag?

Only if you take the Palins along with it.

LOL.

Well, the thing about Marine basic is they require you to do a lot of chin ups and since he doesn't have one I think that would disqualify him.

So we’re okay with the rest of that outfit then?
