but for that show, that was a realistic message. That family was seriously affluent, and if their kids were going to live in anything like the style they were accustomed to they were going to have to make those choices.

A Different World started half a year after Angel Heart came out in 1987, Bonet was in it for 23 episodes until 1989 and then she returned to the Cosby Show until 1991. I’m a big fan of Bonet, and not a big fan of Cosby, but that doesn’t seem like the straw that broke the camel’s back.

Since her plan is pretty much the same plan as the one Van Jones was supposed to be enacting in 2008 before the Republicans concern trolled him out of the Obama administration, maybe Cooper should go down the hall and ask those questions.

So I guess Trump trashing the mothers of the NFL players taking the knee is off the table now?

I can match it. We were at the Botanic Gardens and watched a pair of bored kids with no parents in sight ripping the water lilies out of the pond and leaving them in a pile on the concrete. They had a fair-sized pile before security showed up.

An infant isn’t going to let you relax and have that three glasses of wine in a busy gastropub, and when they act the way overstimulated babies act, you’re going to have to take them outside anyway.

I don’t wanna be the one guy I always am in documentaries fawning over someone I detest

Theirs isn’t a morganatic marriage. Her children are in line for the throne.

“I think I would have been a good general, but who knows?”

Yeah, Jacobin is pretty much the gold standard for reality-based journalism by not-white-bros who totally aren’t toxic careerist fauxialist hipsters from Brooklyn.

No less a politically-correct SJW stronghold than the US Army allows natural hair, hijabs and turbans.

Funny thing. Unlike Hillary, Bernie voted for that bill, in its earlier incarnation and the one Joe Biden rewrote to be more punitive, and he campaigned on those votes.

And those sock puppet accounts and shitty basement dwelling incels were defended and covered for by the campaign and by their surrogates (although considering how many of them jumped the fence to berning or Trump that seems reasonable).

I feel like most anonymous comments that start with “LOL” are probably not sourced too tightly.

Thanks to Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction, most everybody knows a certain Statler Brothers song from the group’s 1966 debut. “Flowers On The Wall” is a direct descendent of early country-pop groups like the Everly Brothers (1957’s “Bye, Bye Love,” 1961’s “Walk Right Back”)

I cry like a baby at the end of that movie, when they’re showing the number of students who passed the AP test in later years.

The reporters in the room were understandably incredulous. It was clear that the president did not come to inform or engage with the press, but rather to take the spotlight off Nancy Pelosi and the new members of Congress.

twitter buzz.

Yep. Because it didn’t happen.

Well, his son ran as sort of a wingnut edgelord, and Bernie (as is his wont) didn’t support him.
