an archaic Senate procedure that purports to maintain bipartisanship, but in practice, just means minority rule and stagnation.

Oh no, is this going to end with a Beach Boys song and my 8 year-old finding out that Buster died in Vietnam?

Great article- shame kinja is so borked that there aren’t even any comments yet an hour after publishing for me to reply to to get out of the greys 

I don’t think I’ll ever begrudge the rich and their private jets ever again. Your odds of seeing a woman breastfeed a cat while flying commercial, are now officially, not zero.

Gibson’s kind of a weird example, though, in that I think it’s hard to make a convincing case that he’s being given a pass because his bigotry was directed against Jews since there was also a healthy dose of racism and misogyny on top of the anti-semitism.

It seems way more likely that he’s getting a pass because his…

Most vans are ‘proof of sex’ vans with the booster seats and crushed Goldfish crackers on the floor.

Please add Dr. to Betty Shabazz’s name. She earned that...just as Dr. King did.

Virtue signaling is the only one I could see being insulting. To me, I associate it with people or brands who talk about stuff like racial justice, but don’t put any actions behind their words. Or even worse, their actions stand in contrast with their words.

The game needed this; we all needed this! And the way they’re making people wait for that album drop (chef’s kiss). The sound is just taking me back - and I about fell out my seat when Paak laid there dead LOL! 

Progressives act like we have too many Joe Manchins in the Senate when in reality, we need 10 more just like him. The politicians who can win in red states will always be unpalatable to the Democratic base, and we need more of them.

Scream a better *franchise* than F13? Ok sure.

The current film restoration revolution is really fucking with my ability to date media. I used to be able to tell whether a movie or show was from the 90s/80s/70s/60s/etc. just based off the film quality, but the other day I saw some restored footage from 20s, and it looked like it was shot yesterday.

I’ve said this many times, but each of Brosnan’s films had a central idea at its core that tried to do something new and cool within the Bond formula:

Agreed, and this is often my response to accusations of “cancel culture.” We need to admit that most of us are replaceable. In a world of 7+ billion people, any one of us is unlikely to be the absolute top candidate for our job. So if a person starts spreading lies about medicine during a pandemic, or if a person is…

Canceling someone doesn’t take away their damn rights. They don’t go to jail. They just lose money. This explanation is dumb. Is DaBaby ENTITLED to millions of dollars? If so, why is he entitled to so much money and not me?

I don’t think Night Court was ahead of its time. It was almost a bit behind its time, like the last of the really raunchy sitcoms from the 70s and early 80s that would have kind of a vaudevillian-influenced sensibility. Totally sex-obsessed but also kind of innocent like Three’s Company. It was a great show, really…

The idea of America is a good one.

Here’s an explanation of what Simone Biles just went through yesterday from another competitive gymnast and diver.

I honestly can’t fathom this response.
