A Sense of Poise and Rationality

S1 was the only one i liked, too. The asylum one was way too insane for me. It made me physically uncomfortable. Not as uncomfortable as the tryophobia pic above. But I really didn’t like it.

Good for Mindy. I’ve always admired January Jones for keeping her son’s father private. While rampantly speculating on his identity, of course (cough cough Matthew Vaughn).

American Horror Story: Falling Apart MidSeason

This looks fascinating and I will watch the hell out of it.

Tucker, honey, do you have any idea how much white Americans shit and pee in public? Cause it’s a lot. Especially when drunk.

The participation of white women in Trump’s victory proved something.

That map, because it’s not actually based on population, is completely pointless, since large swathes of red in the middle are basically empty, with maybe a couple thousand people per county. This map gives you a much better sense of how that balance actually works; county-by-county, with height of the county showing

Mostly agree except for two problems: it’s getting late to fix some of the damage, which real people are suffering right now and which all of us will suffer soon when it comes to climate, and if we let our election process be undermined without a massive course correction, and hackers can still affect it, we’re doomed.

Oh hon. I knew. I knew when she was nominated, I knew when I put aside the joy of the idea of the first female president to vote for Bernie. I knew because I grew up in a red state and have family in red states. They hate Hillary Clinton more than any other Democrat. They hate her with an all consuming passion. But no

Obama was a monster because he tried to legislate from the executive office? Gee, I wonder if that had anything to do with the fact that he was one of, if not the most obstructed president in US history.

‘Trump is just a “fuck you” from a dying generation, bent on making sure that they get every last nickel, even if it results in their children and grandchildren inheriting a worse-off world. At the rate we’re going, I’m pretty confident they won’t get another chance for one more “fuck you.”’

That’s only half the story. For decades the Dems have refused to fight the Republicans on their own terms. The Democrats ALLOWED the right to gerrymander their way into this situation, where no matter the appeal of the Democratic candidate, they can realistically never, EVER win. The Dems never pushed back on

Maybe I’m growing less tolerant as I age but a recent election made me end a lot of borderline relationships I hadn’t decided on for years and since then stuff like reaction to this casting has accelerated the herd culling.

What if you’ve made fewer dumb decisions than Chip Gaines, taken more risks, and ended up with nothing but debt and disappointment? Wouldn’t reading a book straight out of a Christopher Guest movie with a cover photo of a dopey, thousand-yard stare make you feel like you’re the only unlucky person in this entire

A 10 year off/on/off/on relationship may have died its final death over the casting of this character. I am remarkably unbothered by that fact.

And let’s face it: This is a voter base that sees anyone that’s not a white, straight, Christian man as playing “identity politics”. That’s not going to fix itself easily, especially as those people congregate in certain areas and vote en masse.

Obama didn’t win because of the Democratic Party infrastructure, he won in spite of it because he was a dynamic candidate and his election wasn’t a ringing endorsement of neoliberal centrist positions, it was a recognition of that dynamism.

This is what I hate about the argument being put forth. No one in their fucking right mind up to election night ever imagined in their worst-case-scenario that Trump would ever win. You, me, the rest of the voters, and even the Republicans.

People can sit there and say Hillary was a bad candidate, but she beat

He looks like he’s both lost and just shit his pants in that pic.

It’s not about leading voters to the Democratic side - the Republican nominee for President has won the popular vote only once in the last quarter century (Bush in 2004).
