Its actually quite simple.

Right, this is actual political correctness, getting upset cause someone used a word, not critiquing racism or sexism. And surprise surprise, it generally serves to cover the tracks of racists and sexists, just like it always has.

Also, I just want to state for the record that the thought of Gao and Mog at a fancy state banquet makes me smile as much as it did when I was a kid

That’s why this year my dog and I are roasting a couple turkey legs and some sweet potatoes, turning the cell phone off, opening a bottle of something strong and calling it a holiday. Maybe we will play some Skyrim or something.

What the hell is he still fundraising for?

So... if I get chlamydia it can be cured by tossing a tiara at my junk now?

Move along folks, nothing deplorable here

There is one hope. But it isn’t without its own complications. Trump is literally incompetent and unaware of the basic principles of how to run government to an extent that even Dubya couldn’t match. The one hope is that he’ll spend so much time tripping over his own feet that the neo-nazis and uber capitalist greed…

Part of Trump’s “truth” that appealed to a large swath of his votes was that he, personally, was the persecuted one. Despite his vast wealth, status and access to virtually every privilege and every shred of patience and forgiveness that the media could muster throughout the campaign, Trump repeatedly asserted that he…

You know that thing that happens in the modern information saturated world where you read a headline and your brain doesn’t take a second to fully parse the sentence and apply logic to the situation so you get the impression that the article must be about something weird for a second or two?

This time I spent a kind of…

You know, say what you will about Emma Stone, but it is nice to see mixed race Asian Americans getting significant roles in major films like this

Just for the record, I’ve heard provisional ballots are usually the last counted, and so they might not really count since the board of elections in some states don’t get to them until after a candidate has conceded. In that situation, they only come into play if an election is contested and there are recounts

The problem with the narrow win scenario is that it only takes one thing going wrong to fuck up the plan. This election is way too close for comfort and way closer than it should be. With Comey running around doing everything he can to meddle, intentionally or not, with the election, I’m not going to be shocked if…

Are you aware of how accurate your statement is? Here’s him complaining about the Pequot:

I’d choose smelly and drunken every time

They are camped on private land owned by the pipeline developers. The Standing Rock Sioux say the pipeline infringes on their tribal land, endangers historic artifacts and sacred sites, and hurts the environment. An energy industry lobbying group continually quoted in various media outlets says that’s not true.

Ok, a bit off topic and I know there are lists out there for this sort of thing, but I kind of wanted to get the non-journalist perspective. I figure this thread might attract some knowledgeable fans of the genre so I’ll give it a shot:

christ Jezebel, I’m trying not to drink so much during the week, and you aren’t helping

I’m not so sure Trump can’t peel off a some kind of chunk of black voters. He certainly could have if he had started talking to them beyond “what have you got to lose?” before now. There is just as much discontent and mistrust of the government in communities of color as there is in white communities, if not more and…

On the one hand, fuck those cheaters. Seriously.
