I remember watching this episode with a friend and was  all”I am not sure how I should feel here?”

Storytime:

We had dudes in Brooklyn who would pass cards asking us if we wanted to do hip hop videos and some such. In college, men would drive up from Chicago and be all up in these Nordic MidWestern girls’ face like mad.

RIGHT?!

It is exactly what you said.

Hello! *waves*

Distopia- or utopia?

Excellent, Tracy, especially the last paragraph:

I need to check this out- some of the manga/anime are pretty weird with the nationalism bit. FullMetal shows how literally soul destroying it is, while others are...yeesh.

On the anime:

OUCH.

It’s not that they don’t know, it is that they DON’T CARE.

*shakes head*

Thank you for this. That whole bit is a massive cringe.

Yes. All of this.

THIS.

1) I was behind Pelosi until that BS interview in The Hill. It was ungracious and shockingly, shockingly short sighted and stupid.

Trust you to hit the nail on the head, J.
