In 2012 when I thought Mitt Romney was the forthcoming apocalypse who said things like “Binders full of women” and disclosed his taxation rate of 13%.

I remember how elated I was to see a Black man- a Black FAMILY- walkin’ into the White House. I felt so incredible and powerful as a Black American, in a way I’d never felt before.

I always, but always felt so sorry for ML. How many of us were vulnerable interns and just starting out?

And Alabama is extra hard to poll cause so much of the state is rural and poor (big problem when polling 2016 too) and a lot of these polls weigh based on turnout models and that’s a complete toss up at the moment.

I know. It’s clear he was calling her “that cat from the airplane.”

Seth has a lot of good things to say but he’s addicted to twitter threads and needs an intervention. It’s so out of hand that I don’t even read them anymore.

One good thing to come out of this election is, hopefully, the jettisoning of the old guard in the Dem party and yes I mean Bernie too. We need new leaders who aren’t DLC or far left people that can move the country left without ruining the country.

I agree, and I’m a voter who usually goes Democrat. Let’s not use the Clinton comparison and instead deal with the here and now, which means we hold politicians and public figures accountable for their questionable actions regardless of party politics.

Thank you for nothing else but knowing that its “hear hear” and not “here, here”. I quit dating someone after they called it the glove department and another when we heard “I love Rock n roll” and she screamed how much she LOVED Janis Joplin. # Petty # privilege # 1WP

I mean, sometimes he sees things, and sometimes he doesn’t. Why is everyone so demanding of perfection?

I hear people say that every teenager should have to work for tips at some point but there is no fucking way I would let my high schooler work at a restaurant. I don’t think you need to be groped by a coked up line cook to have a strong work ethic.

come on, what a missed opportunity. It woulda been great had Megyn done a crossover and had a big Wheel of Fortune set or maybe even a Family Feud “Survey Says” kind of game.

Ps Bourdain in an interview said some really awesome things as did Collichio in an article linked in one of the thread comments here. They both demand that men “ask themselves where they screwed up” and they took full responsibility for things they said (none that sound like harassment, btw just using bad language…

Netflix should put all their customers on blast for their viewing habits. For me they could tweet: Hey this sick fuck watched Raw then decided to follow that up with Moana. Somebody call the #Mindhunters #checkthecrawlspace

Exactly. His defenders tried to equate what he was doing with norms of the time, but you can easily see it wasn’t the case. He wasn’t courting younger women because he knew the family, or met at supervised social functions. He was trawling in spots where he knew young women would be for hours at a time without easy…

There was some weird British guy who had also claimed to witness other key things in history who claimed to have been on the plane and seen Trump not sexually assaulting Leeds. It was pretty clearly bogus.

“Oh yeah that TOTALLY sounds like me” is a new one in the annals of shitty things guys caught sexually harassing women say.

You are correct that no apology will ever suffice for someone who deliberately mistreated (or worse) women for decades. There is no magic combination of words to make that go away. These assholes aren’t owed forgiveness. Their honesty doesn’t matter. They are entitled to nothing but scorn. Forever. It was what they…

This is the first one of these that I have groaned aloud at. Now I know how a bunch of (male) folks felt when Louis C K was exposed as a serial sex offender - I am ashamed to admit I didn’t want to believe it about Batali.

I think that’s the same basic reasoning that gives us ancient Roman emperors speaking with British accents.
