‘Szala describes that economic argument as “dehumanizing....”’

Re: “dark enlightenment,” as mentioned in the article. This is an actual thing-read the wikipedia article. Big surprise that Peter Thiel (fuck you Peter) is a fan.

The conservative Republican plan for combating opioid addiction consists of 1) going to church, 2) praying, and 3) more church.

Will watch. Or at least watch on Youtube a few days later.

My wife’s father (I’ll never call him my father-in-law) thinks this and it drives me crazy. I haven’t talked to him since the election and my wife has to deal with his bullshittery.

“Sweet jesus I fervently hope he gets a painful and debilitating condition.”

This fuck’s offices need to be visited by constituents who’ve lost family due to a lack of insurance.

“Before ACA, my dad had lung cancer. He was convinced he was going to die so he decided not to treat and leave my mom in horrible debt. He died in the middle of the night after not being able to move off the couch for three weeks. No pain meds. No hospital stay. Nothing but my mom sleeping on the other couch watching…

Fuck these people and everyone who voted for them.

“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”

This is RAGE inducing. Can’t...even...typekajdkfjasdfa.

“Literally on the same site you have the lab workers, who were dealing with larger amounts of radium. They are wearing lead aprons, they are using ivory-tipped tongs to handle the radium, they are given enforced holidays so that they have to take a vacation every now and again so that they’re not exposed to the radium…

This conviction came REALLY QUICKLY. Like, the incident occurred in January, and we already have a jury verdict. Hopefully their lawyers can get this overturned on some post-trial motion. Barring that, the judge can assign some lesser sentence, like probation.

“Especially because, as the lawsuit points out, none of the promotional materials were labeled a such, nor did any of these influencers indicate that they were being compensated for promoting the festival, as required by the FDA. “

Fuck Anna Wintour (in this instance).

I bet that isn’t even a free copy-they made Tiff Maples buy her own.

“...final race (one that was, for better or worse, built so profoundly on charisma)...” 

Like Trevor Noah said last night (to critics), “FUCK that and FUCK you.”

On a slightly related topic, I find the orange man’s touching everyone just...uncomfortable (disgusting). If someone grabbed my shoulder like that and they weren’t a good friend I’d jump away.
