Two things that will never change: the prejudices and bigotry of the GOP, and the craven antics of the police to cry at any amount of oversight or humanitarianism applied to their jobs.

It’s a little known fact that most 90s musicians achieved success via magically enhanced talismans that they had to sport to maintain their fame. Adam Duritz had the faux dreads, Nelly had the bandaid,the Spice Girls had platform shoes. It was a time of high magic and dark, unspeakable fashion.

Sometimes I think the greatest feat of political gamesmanship the Republicans have pulled in the last 40 years is how thoroughly they have gotten in the heads of Democrats of a certain generation.

I’m no lawyer, but it seems like Carnegie’s estate would have a pretty airtight case against the RNC for plagiarizing his work for the entirety of their platform.

The stock market is really just gambling for rich people.

We have 15-20 years to address climate change.... wherein millions of people will die. We have inequality unparalleled since the time of the pharaohs. India and Pakistan are likely to go to war in the next few months. China is readying “Tianamen Square 2: Now With Live Streaming!” in Hong Kong. Thousands of people who…

Shit, in most states, manicurist requires a license and training. The people that shit on these jobs are most often people who could never, ever, actually do these jobs. My fever dream is putting Ivanka, Jared, DTJ, and Eric in a fucking White Castle for a month and telling them to get to work. Also, they have to pay…

Also almost always said by people who are actively working to undermine the legal standing of unions and any other labor organization that makes negotiation even remotely feasible. 

I subscribe to the “He killed himself and the guards were cool with that” theory.

My constant befuddlement that anyone but rich white men vote for republicans...

Sorry, Baker Street is only the 2nd greatest saxophone 80's moment:

I mentioned it in a previous Epstein thread, it’s something that happens a lot. There’s a reason convicted pedophiles are frequently kept in special custody with limited contact of any kind with general population, and there’s a reason they tend to die a lot when they are mixed in.

I’m not knocking the saxophone just saying that like the Japanese stock market, it peaked in the 80s.

Baker Street redeems the saxophone for rock songs. Or is it not rock enough?

The original film, if nothing else, has the world’s laziest suicide attempt in it - Demi Moore opens the widow in the middle of winter and just sits waiting to freeze.

As I said in another post, we've gone from "get a job" to "get a better job" narrative. This is merely a deflection to place responsibility on workers rather than addressing the fact that we have entire industries with wages below standard of living. A good case in point is the Disney theme parks. The parks profits…

Has Ben Shapiro ever considered just not being an asshole?

I walk by, and he calls me trash, right in front of my kids.

I saw a man this morning with an absolutely enormous penis.

I heard this guy on NPR yesterday on the way to work and almost drove right off the road. What an asshole! I also have never heard anyone actually say, “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” until that guy said it during his interview. It really was something to behold (in a horrible way). This is someone who does not…
