I hope your friend is pro-choice now, at least. Or even better, she was one of the people who are personally against abortion, but doesn’t try to dictate other peoples’ choices.

They didn’t have to do those things because, for most of them, there were no laws that prevented them from immigrating to the U.S. We were dying for more people to come here and help us settle this land and kill off the Indians. The only difference is that they got in before we changed our laws and decided we didn’t…

“autistic screeching”? Get bent, dickhead.

Gotta plug those leaks!

I wish. Instead, we had a bunch of butthurt Bernie people who picked up their ball and went home. Now we’re stuck with this monstrosity. I’ve asked some of my acquaintances who didn’t vote for Hillary because of Bernie, and they don’t seem to have any regrets. Yet. It’s amazing the backflips some people will do to…

Yeah, but I’m starting to get worried she’s going to get poisoned or shot in the back. I’m sure she’s been warned, but still she persists :)

Thank you for that link. It’s actually made me rethink my stance re cover art and aversion to “chick lit” looking books. Going to file this away to think about later tonight. Maybe I’ll give these books a shot after all.

In fairness, pretty much all of Octavia Butler’s cover art is crazypants. But I still love her. So, I guess she’s an exception to my rule.

I can’t get past the cheesy cover art. Yes, I’m judging a book by its cover. No, I don’t care. But I guess if you all think they’re not as cheesy as their covers convey, I’ll put my snobbery aside.

Honey, you can vent all day long if you want. You’re totally right. There’s no fucking reason we can’t do single payer universal. Except greed.

Meka leka hi, meka Johnny ho.

Comey reports to the Attorney General as far as I know.

Well, it will be a federal prison. And now, since they’re allowing the use of private prisons again, they’ll get to experience first-hand what the prison industrial complex feels like.

This is a joke, right?

Basically. I think he just doesn’t give a shit. He thinks he’s wearing an expensive suit, so that’s all that matters (never mind that it’s ill-fitting and too drapey for his body).

Right? I would’ve never tagged him as the one to be fighting for women and children.

Me too, Cakewalk. But I’m starting to think that ONLY if something sounds bizarre and crazy is it true these days.

He’s too fat to button his jacket when he’s wearing his standard drapey suit. I noticed he wore a normal tailored suit for his joint session speech this week. I’m convinced that’s part of the reason people were saying he was presidential. For the first time in a long time, he had a properly tailored suit that was…

Actually, I read a whole article on this issue and the kicker is that his cheap-looking suits are actually really expensive Brionis. The problem is that he prefers comfort over looking nice, so he buys his suits in lightweight soft (expensive) fabric that is not really meant for men with bodies like his. It drapes…
