you have to try it, before you buy it

I’ve known exactly two people in my life who did not fuck their spouses before they got married (both were actual virgins). Both were divorced within a few years because of sexual incompatibility.

There’s a reason education sucks, it’s the same reason that it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you got. Because the owners of this country don’t want that. I’m talking about the real owners, now. The real owners, the big wealthy…

Any white kid who went to a rural, mostly white ISD would laugh for days, and days and days at the notion that Republican lawmakers care about them getting a quality education, as compared to their drive to slice up funding for public education being about ambivalence towards minority children getting educated.

But honest question, what are we going to do about it? What are the next steps here? I feel like we are shouting into a void about federal law and ethics and its making me very tired.

You know I have had member status privileges at hotels and two airlines (soon to be one) for like 6-7 years now. I never thought I was special for it, because paying for stuff isn’t a special thing. Like I give you money, you give me stuff (in the case better rooms and quicker boarding), like that is just how…

I think it comes down to stuff like “The Wall” though. When a Chinese produced and directed movie casts Matt Damon, what more can you do? We need non-white people to be willing to produce and direct movies about themselves just as much as we need white people to not dominate the industry.

I mean, I wish more people would pose these questions (why didn’t you cast a person of the race the original character is) to the producers/directors. Of course it’s good to have the conversation and get the point out there, but it’s not really up to the actors. Obviously, SJ could have turned down the project, and…

Third, why wait until you’ve boarded and the plane has left the gate to pitch a fit? Even if you just found out about it from a member of your entourage, why is that the airline’s fault?

This whole story is weird and doesn’t make much sense. But I can see some of what might have gone wrong because I’ve seen it so many times at the airport with people in the uber-frequent flyer programs. First, were all 19 bags Derulo’s, or did he try to do the asshole thing and say that all of the group’s bags were…

Jason Derulo has accused America’s shittiest major airline (unless we’re counting Spirit) of “racial discrimination” after an incident involving checked bags, $4000, and literal requests to “turn this plane around.”

Many, many countless men have run for the Presidency in our country’s history and lost, yet more men — and sometimes those same men — never hesitate to throw their hat in the ring 4 years later. The idea that one woman coming close and losing means no women can run for POTUS until the country magically becomes…

Love the protestor spirit, but Warren is trying to sell her book and get re elected. The judicial branch is crushing it in terms of blocking trump, but this was self serving and hollow. At the end of the day, all of the nominees have been confirmed. Congressional Dems have done nothing of value as of yet.

....is exactly how they wanted you to react.

He was quoted in Newsday as saying he was upset because he just wanted Gizmodo to be about technology and not so much with the politics and all that stuff.

Oakley is a legend, and by many accounts (including this video) he’s also a collosal asshole.

Following up on the Nordstrom & TJX brouhaha, the slimmest glimmer of hope:

Anyone who voted for or supports trump is a shit bag racist. Period.

I’m not talking about the perpetrators- there are shitheads everywhere, and anyone who abuses women (or anyone else) should be held responsible and punished appropriately.
