I’m not sure people in my state are intelligent enough to understand that. There have been a lot of calls for the Director of the Dept. of Health to resign, because the anticipated spikes didn’t happen. THE SPIKES DIDN’T HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE DIRECTOR’S ORDER TO SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN, MORONS.

I know several people who make the same arguments your dad makes. When I bring up the fact that many people who have this are asymptomatic, and YES, you can get it from an asymptomatic carrier, their reply is usually “yeah, but do we REALLY know that for sure?”

With you 100%. I’m extremely introverted, and I got so pissed yesterday during my trip to the grocery store that I spoke up and gave a middle-aged couple a piece of my mind when they were walking the wrong way up the aisle (signs were marked every few feet on the floor and at eye level). No masks either of course.…

I used to have two papillons (now sadly just down to one). One day they came across a nest of newborn bunnies. The older one immediately tried to devour them whole, while the younger one tried to imitate his older brother, though you could tell he didn’t know what he was doing. By the time I stopped them they were…

I’m pretty sure this was a ‘78 or ‘79 bronco; I remember it was black with yellow trim. When my dad’s buddy eventually got a new car I was so disappointed-that bronco just seemed like it was a part of his persona at that point.

When I was young I occasionally rode in the back of my dad’s friend’s bronco with his kids. We would beg him to drive fast over hills so we’d go airborne; occasionally you’d come down on the metal wheel-wells, but it was worth it.  

That’s because Thomas Newman is a genius. His scores are always full of so much emotion. 

Thomas Newman is my favorite composer, and “Define Dancing” is among his best work in my opinion.

Agree 100%. I remember whenever the live version of “Even Flow” would be played on the radio, that “WAAH!” at the beginning was like an instant adrenaline jolt. It still brings me back to my grungy teenage years whenever I hear it. 

Wholeheartedly agree on both counts. And if Gritty ever shows up at a BLM protest, my heart will fill with joy.

And this is one of the many reasons why this white person doesn’t trust the police. They stand together no matter what, and will always defend their own, no matter how vile the actions they commit.

I was a lowly admin at the time who merely took the meeting minutes, but was lucky enough to work for a boss who knew exactly what those yuppies meant when they used that phrase. He regularly called them out on their bullshit.

Having worked for a local Planning Commission, I can confirm that this is 100% accurate. You won’t believe how many times I heard the phrase “those people” at public meetings. 

You are so, so fucking right. I know a lot of people who fit that description to a T. They’re the same people who pride themselves on being so woke that they “just can’t bring themselves” to vote for Biden. 

The way she deliberately changed her tone on the phone to make it sound like she was terrified makes me want to punch her in the face. 

Unfortunately yes-we’re both Ohioans. I suspect she belongs to a particular tribe of white women who talks the liberal talk and pretends to keep up on the issues for appearances sake, but really doesn’t give a shit. I know she only tends to vote during presidential elections, and didn’t bother to vote in the primary,…

... And that’s kinda what scares me. I had a long conversation with a liberal millenial who was having a crisis of conscience about voting for Biden, and I brought up all the points you made (think about the Supreme Court, federal judicial appointments, the Justice Dept., etc.). Her answer kept being “Yeah, but...” I…

I agree. Biden needs to really refine his message and focus on what he’ll do for people, not to mention the consequences of four more years of Trump. But I’ve spoken with a lot of liberal millennials where I live who seem to take articles like this to heart, and are considering not voting at all because “their…

I believe you’re right-those people who ARE going to vote who lean Democratic are going to vote for Biden. But snarky articles from sites like Jezebel that that treat Biden like the enemy because he isn’t woke enough just might convince some liberals to stay home, because it makes them feel superior to have “listened…
