I know it’s cultural appropriation but it’s really cultural laundering (a term I’ve just invented that’s a portmanteau of cultural appropriation and money laundering): take ill-gotten gains (say, R&B music), run it through a front (change something, slightly), and suddenly your ill-gotten gains are clean (white people…

Let’s consider what the various racial/gender/sexual/disabled groups are essentially asking for...

Not planning on getting out of the way kkthx... Why would I?

Since 2012 we’ve seen black men & women murdered on camera by law enforcement & teenage girls humiliated & exposed to the world on all forms of social media. We’ve “elected” a *President who knows nothing of human decency who admitted that he grabs women by their genitals & watched as elected officials tried to strip…

Unfuckingbelievable. For 70 years, the world lived in appropriate terror of a nuclear exchange, because the mere thought of it was considered too horrific to contemplate. And now here we are, letting a fucking spoiled child tweet us into a nightmare millions won’t survive (if it’s small scale and contained; what a…

Great, now the US is painted into a corner. If North Korea does something like fire off another test missile, or a warning shot at Guam that deliberately misses and lands in the sea, the US is faced with the option of having to respond in a powerful fashion involving the use of military force and possibly nuclear…

I was stopped at the Canadian border for about 2 hours while the guys at the crossing took everything out of my car, searched my phone, and then put it all back (they could have put the garbage in the trash, but they put that back where they found it). They were suspicious of anyone going to SK to see the Corner Gas…

Trump will remember Spicer’s name. He’ll be using it shortly as a new scapegoat to accuse of God knows what during Tweets, interviews, “speeches”, etc.

Fire Mueller? The meltdown that would occur after that would be just fantastic to watch (from my perch in Canada).

we all talk about how easily played he is, but he plays us too, by exploiting our weakness for outrage

Trump is the logical end point of the Republican party.

Mr Safety and I were discussing the theory that this is all staged to keep us from noticing all the other crap that’s taking place (sort of) behind closed doors...

If only we had enough diversity in the Senate to have an all-woman panel question that racist sack of shit.

Saskatoon is, indeed, very pretty in the summer. (Source: from there.)

“Spirit animal”? Come on. Y’all know better than that.

Can you not use Spirit Animal. It’s cultural appropriation, offensive to some. Say Melania is your Patronus or living embodiment of your Cheetolini distaste. Thanks.

“Spirit animal” is a term that has real cultural meaning to Native Americans; this usage is appropriative. Please rephrase.

Melania Trump is becoming the other America’s spirit animal, and by other America I mean the America with a full set of teeth that doesn’t own a pickup truck or believe that the confederate flag is symbol of America’s pride.

Trump gave up more intel in 5 minutes with the Russians than John McCain did in 5 years of torture from the North Vietnamese.
