It Carlos King. He claims he wasn’t fired and left for unrelated reasons.

Hubris, thy name is Phaedra Parks.

I so agree; hearing about the last meal and what they choose always breaks my heart.

United should have handled the situation in the terminal vs after people were already seated. Honestly would have made all the difference. United’s decision to handle after seating passengers was the first and most egregious mistake here, so from where I’m sitting, they are responsible.

I feel you. I wasn’t even catholic an demon possession was my #1 fear for a while there. Strangely, even Days of Our Lives had a demon possession storyline in the 90s...I had waking nightmares of “possessed Marlena” in my closet waiting for me to fall asleep.

I love Reese and loved her as Madeline, but I can’t help but think she miscalculated here. Everyone I know who read the book hated the affair addition. To me the affair is the cliche (and ultimately boring to watch...how many times have we seen this?) The Madeline of the book was not perfect. Sure she was kind of the

He’s only 6'4, but a very solid, muscular 6'4, like a pro athlete. His physicality fit the role well.

A personal grudge and a whole lot of manipulation from Cheney & co, who had other rea$on$.

Rachel Maddow definitely reported on these things in real time too.

I agree with all you say. More often than not I’ve stayed quiet out of some sort of social obligation and now I realize how that is a big part of the problem. I don’t have the strength of character to speak up every time, that’s the truth. I’m getting better but not there yet. The particular instance when I walked out

Yup. In FL they did it to Burdines. I still miss Burdines.

Dang, I wasn’t exposed to Eyes on the Prize until my junior year of college as a history major taking a class specifically on the civil rights movement. You had a really great 8th grade teacher :)

The 50s were a “return to normalcy” after the unimaginable global carnage of WW2. It was an era of good feelings for white people, specifically white straight Christian men in the working class who were able to move into the middle class for the first time. People of color were asked to return to a status quo that

There has to be a second season. There just has to be.... I assume NBC wants to keep Schur (and Bell and Danson) around. This season has been well received by critics and the finale especially created a lot of buzz. I don’t know what they’re waiting for, but NBC would be fools not to renew. Because the show is so

Isn’t that what Cheney wanted way back when? Oil from Iraq? I’m sure that sentiment is alive and well in the party, international violation or not. If Trump lasts long enough, I believe war in the Middle East —sustained, with ground troops and everything — will be a top priority. Under the guise and half truth of

This scenario is seriously terrifying and I believe that Ayn Rand deciples like Ryan would be on board with this too. Makers, takers and all that. This is going to be a long, nasty fight.

MSNBC is doing a pretty good job.

Seriously. Oil was new technology at one point too and I’m sure candle makers or whatever were sad to lose business. Oil companies have had their fucking day. Holding the country hostage so they can continue to make ungodly amounts of money is truly disgusting.

Exactly. I’m 30 years old and in my lifetime, let alone my lifetime of being able to understand and engage in politics, the Republican Party has devolved into madness. I remember learning about government in elementary school and really respecting the two party system. As a kid, I knew early on I was going to lean
