Thank you. I live in the Midwest, these people are not that hard to understand...they are racists who are perfectly happy for the government to supplement incomes as long as those incomes are theirs. They’re the first and second generation of men who didn’t have manufacturing jobs handed to them on a silver platter…

Exactly! I have a friend who grew up in a small town in Kansas and whenever I used to try the “Well, poor white people in Appalachia/mid-west only know what they grew up with” line, she’d counter with “I grew up in a small town surrounded by conservative and racist family and and friends, but I knew that that shit was…

“hate crimes whose perpetrators specifically invoked Trump and dad was still like: Nope, it’s not what you think.”

You are quite correct. Moreover, from what I’ve read, they’re not willing to do service jobs because they see this as “women’s work.” And in conversations I’ve tried to have with them, they promptly understand “service job” to mean McDonalds and not, say, nursing. Instead of picking up a book and reading about what…

Sorry for this rant, but my God, I am SO SICK of people treating the rust belt/Midwest like it’s THE BACKBONE OF AMERICA and more important than people in liberal and/or big cities. This is 2016, not 1950. These people spent decades voting for policies and candidates who defunded education and sent jobs overseas, and…

People who only think they can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with are about to meet people who actually can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Unfortunately, we all will get what they deserve.

Oh yeah, we’re all going down. It’s going to be painful for everyone. I don’t think people understood what they were voting for in this election, but they will when it’s too late. It’s really going to smell like revolution then.

I can’t wait to see what happens to these communities when Paul Ryan’s Trojan horse comes to take their social security, disability, and Medicare payments away. That ripping sound you hear is the social fabric and social contract that you assumed was just part of life being torn asunder. That’s what small government…

I’ve seen a lot of online posts saying that we need to work to understand the “Trump voter.” That liberal elitism prevented us from seeing/reaching the scared middle-American who saw their way of life slipping away. But, seriously, fuck that nonsense. I grew up in a small Alaskan town and I got out. I’ve gone back…

Enormously distressing is dealing with all of those things without the resources Kim and Kanye have. Put it in perspective here people.

Hey... what do you think would happen if Twitter banned him? It’s not illegal. It’s probably the most effective form of protest against him that we can muster. And it’d crack down on the Twitter trolls who inevitably will unilaterally boycott the site. We need to appeal to Jack Dorsey immediately.

Silly man in a silly gold apartment, outclassed by a small child in rubble.

Salaam, little one. We should have protected you. I’m sorry we let you down.

Are you watching Donald Trump? How does a 7-year-old have more empathy than the Twitter troll 10x her age?

YES. I fast-forwarded. And as I fast-forwarded, I reflected on the fact that even in the oft-maligned last season, I never actually skipped any scenes. It was that bad.

ASP REALLY NEEDS A NETWORK TO REIGN HER IN. SHE GREATLY NEEDED SOMEONE TO SAY ‘NO AMY, YOU CANT DO A 30 MINUTE MUSICAL IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR SERIES’

we only have 6 hours together and this is how you want to spend it?!

Yes! Kirk’s movie. The musical. Every single scene with Logan. How many hours did we spend looking for a mediocre outfit for Rory that she could have spent writing articles on spec?

Give me more of Loralai and Emily in counseling. Give me Rory actually…

Okay I am sure Emily and Richard gave her a trust fund, but how many times can she keep flying back and forth to London - at the last minute 50% of the time, especially because she later claims she’s broke.

“I love you, Marty.” - Rory

someone just tell me what the last four words are
