Thank you. A perfect candidate does not exist...I repeat, a perfect candidate DOES NOT EXIST. And if one did, I wouldn’t trust that person, because well, no one is perfect. Vote during every election, never ever, ever ever ever rely on any fucking polls that show your candidate is gonna win and think “oh they’ve got

I think Obama is hitting on a lot of key points in this speech about the importance of participating in democracy.

I’m with Meredith. I don’t need to watch a movie on it, or make a movie on it, or take pics or listen to music. I need it to call people, or email or text. My BB works just fine.

i miss my blackberry curve

“Why do we need Ambassadors. I mean they’re great guys, the best, but when I let everyone know about everything via Twitter using the best words, you know they’re tremendous words, what’s the need for them.

“Why do people like her?”

“Teen Vogue” doing what mainstream media critics aren’t willing to, Especially by name, and to the perpetrator’s face.

Isn’t he trying to sober-up? Why would she throw a surprise party full of alcohol?

Please. It’s not just that. It’s more like “I spend every waking day thinking about people who have slighted me, and I’m going to act like I don’t really know who they are.”

Eh, they just dust her off every year for the holidays then put her back on the shelf. Eminem merked her career years ago

Oof that Rob and Chyna situation is bad all around. I saw the leaked messages and to me I didn’t read that she was using him and planned to be out after a year, it looked like she was having a hard time and saying if nothing changed she would have to leave, and a year was the time she was willing to wait.

She would have been in First Class, though, and Margot Robbie’s family is poor and also presumably in Australia, so I think The Shallows with Blake Lively who is from a wealthy LA family.

The telling part is that Russia hacked both the RNC and the DNC. They only released the DNC information, which means they are blackmailing the Republicans to get their way. And as we all know Republican priorities are 1) themselves, 2) the party, and 3) the nation.

Can someonw please put together a hierarchy of racism/sexism/xenophobia/sexual objectivity combinations so I understand who the hate the most in New America? Like, obviously a black Muslim is at the very bottom of the Trump supporter’s list, and a hot white immigrant is the most acceptable and goes to the top. But

Lol, all kidding aside she won by popularity not by a politician’s choice.

No, we are not all in the same position. A qualified white woman with no connections at least has whiteness. A qualified white male with no connections has whiteness and maleness. So no, it’s not limited to a racial issue, but the racial component is quite a large one.

You know....I don’t think I love this. Who is this aimed toward — teachers? Do we think teachers don’t try to intervene with troubled kids? Students? There were students interacting with this kid, and anyway, asking students to police the behavior of “creepy loner weirdos” is how you get bullying. (And I mean, say you

Western, white Xtians: still deluded about their worship for a religion entirely from and about brown human beings in the middle East. Life sized nativity sets of white ladies with blonde babies, wearing flannel sheets. Simultaneously they fear and white-feminist shame hijabi.

I saw that.

I can’t get joy out of their suffering? Like hell I can’t. I had my heart set on Clinton. On a President who, in Obama’s words, looks like me. On agroforestry. On Clinton spending military resources to stop the illegal wildlife trade. On her plan for solar. I’m also a political junkie, and I can no longer watch CSPAN.
