The fact that The Florida Project was completely snubbed shows that, while Hollywood may be waking up to race and gender issues, poverty in America is still something they’d rather ignore. For obvious reasons.

Rats. Sinking ships. Etc.

I half expect this fim will end with a machine gun wielding Tate taking out Manson.

Honesty time: I don’t care if corporations pay taxes. I really don’t. The rich billionare/multi-millionare people who run them should be taxed heavily. And I mean heavily. To borrow from the flawed talking points of the GOP and otherwise conservative mind-set: The rich people running the corporations aren’t the job…

People like LaPierre, and the ones who listen to them, are total cowards. The only way they can advance their bullshit agenda is through fear. A rational human being would see right through the kind of horseshit LaPierre and his ilk holler about at the top of their lungs. So they cling to their guns like the cowards…

It is pretty clear that the only way an agenda of hate and discrimination can be advanced is through ignorance, censorship, and violence.

The more time passes, the more I begin to wonder if, as a species or a culture, we are mature or intelligent enough for what the internet allows us to do.

Figures he would buy into Aviation, a gin that non-gin drinkers think a “good” gin tastes like.

And all of these people, every last one of them, are going to sell whatever information they learn on the inside. It is their nature. They are predators. They are opportunists. They are, above all else, in it for themselves and they will profit off it in any way they can.

You think you could ski jump, huh? I’m 99% certain this would be you.

Speaking as an AV archivist, this is fucking awesome.

As others have noted, the congressional GOP isn’t done destroying the country for anyone who isn’t white, male, and in the top 10 percent economically. Trump is the best person for them to accomplish this because he is corrupt as fuck-all and they can always threaten to throw him to the wolves if he refuses to do what…

I’m hoping someone heckles Trump, Joe Wilson style.

I really don’t care. Why would I need to do that when I have a VPN and can watch coverage that, by comparison, is much better?

Like most coverage of international sports in the United States, the Olympics’ games coverage is pure shit. So I VPN’d into CBC streaming coverage last winter Olympics and it was AMAZING. I was able to watch all the events and became a HUGE fan of the various cross country events (especially biathlon).

Yes! Chapter 7, to be more specific, covers this issue. YMRT is a great podcast in general, probably my favorite, but this particular series on Fonda and Seberg really hit it out of the park.

Ive been trying to figure out how to VPN my way into another country’s Olympics coverage, and this news has me redoubling my efforts. U.S. coverage is shit for anyone who actually wants to watch a sporting event and not a broadcaster’s attempt to make an over the top narrative out of every fucking thing.

Sounds to me like she’s trying to take the Archie Bunker approach. I guess we will see how it goes. Risky move in this day and age trying to appeal to two different political demographics.

Honestly, I’m more worried that McConnel will refuse to seat Jones. We’re talking about the same asshole party that refused to seat a Supreme Court Justice while Obama was in office. The level of the GOP’s treasonous behavior knows no bounds. Based on their documented behavior and words, the party needs to be treated…

You are spot on here. People who argue it is a bad financial decision view buying a car as an investment. For some people, like collectors, yes, buying a car is an investment. But for the 99% of other people buying cars, they are buying an appliance. Is buying a new washing machine a bad financial decision? No, it…
