You... wound me... *sad trombone*

Do you suppose there will ever come a day when creators of color or women get as many chances and comebacks as white men who abuse their staff/co-workers?

I watched one of his Netflix specials a couple months back for the first time too, and it was legitimately the least funny comedy special I’ve ever seen in my life. Genuinely hard to sit through. Guy is like Dane Cook with no charm and even less talent

agreed, when I look at my Kindle at ALL the tell-all books I have bought about President Fucking J. Moron—who if I hear him talk on TV I will either mute the TV or at least avert my eyes because he disgusts and tires me that muchI can’t believe what a masochist I am. They ALL say the same fucking thing so

Yeah this is like all the books that came out after the global financial meltdown that said basically everyone saw it coming from miles away. It’s not going to do anything and it’s certainly not going to make me feel better.

I think I speak for a whole generation of people when I say .... “who?”

Shocked to see Chris D’Elia has been accused of being a comedian.

You’re probably right to be honest, Perlman seems like a self-aware man.

I love Ron Perlman, and I can’t wait to pitch him my script that casts him and Tom Waits as brothers who fight over the metaphorical soul of a young man at a crossroads in his life (think a civilian version of Berenger/Dafoe in Platoon) but I love the unmitigated gall he has to call some ugly!

Neil Marshall’s Dog Soldiers is one of the best werewolf movies

yet his mind remains fully intact

And that punchline will be “The Aristocrats!”

most of the people who are armed to the teeth, who insist that they need their arsenal as a bulwark against tyranny, actually favor the idea of the government calling in troops to brutalize people calling for equal rights for black and brown people.

Please vote in local elections. It makes a difference.

Virginia is notoriously gerrymandered. Virginia hasn’t elected a republican to statewide office for over 10 years but the state legislature, until last year, was majority republican. This disconnect is enabled by the

He was in office for 8 years and did nothing to even try to stop the policing problem in this country. He sold out Ferguson protestors, he sold out OWS, he sold out Dakota Pipeline protesters. His backroom dealing hamstrung the most progressive candidate for president and left us with “shoot unarmed people in the leg”

‘It’s OK to be silent when no one is talking to you’ is a great sentiment. I like that a lot. It goes hand in hand with ‘shut up and listen’, which I like a lot too. Also, I think it’s okay for people not to go to protests, as well. Doesn’t mean I don’t think protests should happen, I just don’t think they’re
