We’ve tried the peaceful way.

I’m stunned. I mean, WHO could of foreseen this...

We are done with Martin, we need Malcolm right now.

Black people are playing a game of ethics with an unethical person.. a devil’s wager if you will. Violence is a byproduct of the CONSTANT “beating” people are taking (sometimes literal, most often psychological/emotional/financial/educational/societal). When someone speaks out, they are silenced and drowned out by the…

For me the disconnect is: violence has been working against black people and for white people for centuries! So tell me how it doesn’t work.

I don’t love wanton destruction, either. I don’t necessarily want to see places burned and broken into and shit stolen. But the same voices calling now for peaceful protests, the same ones who most need to hear the message, are on record as having rejected peaceful protests out of hand:

It’s a special kind of cop that thinks a knee to the neck is the proper response to a protest about a cop putting his knee to a guys neck.

The Excorcist succeeds in the same way as its predecessor, Rosemary’s Baby (1968) and its successor, The Omen (1976). All three movies are based in ancient Catholic demonic lore, but none require the audience to believe it; the terror comes from the fact that Rosemary, Chris MacNeil, and the Thornes came from a place…

You have some extra letters in “me first.” Sorry to be the spelling police.

Feels insensitive to turn the largest mass shooting in Canadian history into a joke about the Queen’s Birthday, especially considering it’s the only mention of it on this website. I know Jez isn’t news, you have your own problems in the US, you’re desensitized to mass shootings, etc. But this shooting, in the midst of…

The Chrysler Building, the Twin Towers, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge... it’s all in there.

I’ve mentioned this elsewhere, but the most pitiful thing about Trump posturing is how much he is flip-flopping and blinking instantly someone challenges him on it. Like seriously, this weeks time series has been:

Yes. Capitalism uses such language to shift the burden away from those who wield money and power onto the everyone else, so the failures can’t be pinned on them. Even going as far as making it sound like a moral failing, as you pointed out, which is so insidious and cynical. Because what if people really started to…

There is more than enough wealth in this country to prevent widespread destitution while we endure the economic slowdown necessarily required to slow the spread of the disease and prevent hundreds of thousands, or millions, of unnecessary death. Essential production would continue (with “essential” almost certainly…

In Trump’s defense, a phrase that gives me literal shivers to type, Americans have use battle and war terminology all the time when referring to bad things we can’t control as a delusion to think we actually do control the things that happen to us.

Look, I want to bang Idris Elba like a screen door in a hurricane as much as everyone else on the planet but... why tf is he able to get tested with NO SYMPTOMS when my friends in the UK say there's a shortage of tests? 

Right? Decent odds we’ll all be dead by then.

Could we not have gotten Gwendolyn Christie to play the Vampire that falls in love with Kristofer Hivju’s character? Asking for everyone that watched GoT 

I belive the word you’re looking for is friends.
