Whenever some teen campus conservative or social justice warrior makes the news, I always think how blessed I am that the dumbass thoughts and attitudes I had when I was 19 weren’t published nationally and preserved for eternity with my name attached to them. And my politics haven’t even changed that drastically since…

Who the fuck was the imagined user for this site? Like, imagine arguing with someone online and they earnestly respond to you with a Verrit code.
Ah, the tears of a clown.
Very well said. If you actually care about healthcare justice, support a group explicitly organized around advocating for universal healthcare, not this hilariously transparent attempt to divert momentum from Medicare For All.
How do they explain away Alicia Florrick? Did she die on her way back to her home planet like Poochie?
You can maybe make the argument that campaigning is about compromise, but politics itself is 100% a zero-sum competition for finite resources where your goal is to kill and utterly humiliate your opponents.
Democrats have forgotten this. Republicans never have.
Not much shocks me anymore, but holy shit, the level of gaslighing in these tweets is fucking bonkers.
I assumed it was just an Abe Sapien origin story, with a similar-but-legally-distinct-from Abe Sapien main character.
The Peggy Noonan picture that’s used for every Gawker/Gizmodo/Splinter/whatever the hell we are now article on Peggy Noonan is one of my favorites.
That, and the attitude that any political problem can be solved if people in the system just work hard enough.
Yup, yup, yup. My biggest problem with the Babe piece was how poorly it was reported, which doesn’t diminish Grace’s experience, but leaves it open to these sorts of attacks.
There are two kinds of people: those who would have sex with the Fish Man, and those who are lying to themselves
The logic is that Civil War was a tentpole that starred a character who had already headlined two solo movies, whereas Black Panther is a new property. Marvel movies starring newly-introduced, unknown characters tend to have depressed openings (in relative terms); Doctor Strange opened with $85M, compared to Thor:…
My first thought coming out of Civil War was “Chris Evans is pretty” followed immediately by “I want to see more Black Panther,” so this doesn’t shock me at all. Sadly, this is probably deeply shocking to a bunch of film execs.

Remember, life is too short to be a contrarian.
I feel like whoever created this character model doesn’t understand how an undercut works? His fade seems...off. Something clearly got lost in translation from page to in-game model.
Man, the bootlicking in those tweets from Buzzfeed staffers. People who oppose media unions (or any union, really) are almost always people who believe that they are superior to their peers, and thus will be rewarded for it / don’t need the benefits a union provides. It doesn’t shock me that Buzzfeed attracts a lot of…
I read the first issue. It was...fine. There’s no shortage of eyeroll-worthy yaoi/BL tropes (sports! rivals! boarding school! implausible contrivances!). I’ll probably wait for the trade to see if it gets any better.
