Also, the DoD hasn’t been audited in years because it is unauditable. Can you make taxpayers pay for an increase of funding to an org that can’t tell you where the fuck it’s current funding is going?

What do you think about the “we need to move farther left!!!” idea? My gut tells me it is a terrible idea, especially since less than a quarter of americans label themselves liberal, but becoming even more extreme seemed to work for the republicans in 2010 and 2016.

Yeah, his whole administration is about blaming brown folks so no one notices that he is turning the country into a kleptocrazy to rival Somalia or Qatar.

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Trevor noah has a bit in his new book where he says apartheied worked because the government got black people to hate one another - they were so busy infighting between different tribes that they weren’t able to come together and fight the government. I see the libtard/republithug bs thing as similar. The right…

Most republicans still think he’s just dandy, which is why the congressional republicans have not yet found their spines. Keep in mind he’s mostly doing shit he said he’d do. If you look at the trump regrets tumblr, most people are upset he isn’t going far enough. They want the wall built now, hillary in jail,…

TL:DR: politician from party of personal responsibility unwilling to take responsibility for consequences of his actions.

Seeing as how the current NRA line of needing guns to protect yourself against the government was borrowed from the Black Panthers, I don’t think so. The answer is always more guns, no matter what the problem.

I mean, on one hand you are letting the kid be active instead of staring at a screen, so that’s a win.

for me, it became essential that a game be savable at any time. I’ve played tons of skyrim and dragon age inquisition for that reason. Any game where I know I might have to go thirty minutes before hitting a save point is dead to me.

It infuriates me to no end that the people that are all rah rah small government/protect yourself from government tyranny/lock Hillary up for (emails? Benghazi?) are totally ok with a for-profit prison model that incentivizes and monetizes the State imprisoning its citizens.

I’m pro-planned parenthood and pro-choice, but this idea that since no federal funds pay for abortion, anti-choice people should be a-ok with PP is a little disingenuous. Yes, federal funds don’t go to pay for abortions, but they go to an organization that performs abortions, so to some degree it is supporting…

I’m so sick of this shit. Any time anything contradicts his worldview, he declares that the opposite must be true - fake news, paid protesters, illegal voters, and now jews calling in bomb threats to themselves. If it looks like a nazi, acts like a nazi, and is threatening jews, it’s probably a fucking nazi donald.

I went to a conference in that hotel a few years ago. It is a terrible, terrible place.

Yesterday a site than normally posts movie stills from the 40s posted a video of a drunk guy stealing a plane at an airshow, and one of the sites it was reblogged from was all racist “joke” memes about jews controlling the media and how dumb black people are. I thought at first it was a liberal making fun of racists,…

It’s the flipside of the alt-right assclowns, albeit with beliefs that cause much less harm. It’s the combination of youthful self-righteousess and how easy it is to be a dick on the internet.

Feels about as fruitful as the “what is real punk rock” conversation. It’s also an example of how intersectionality can be weaponized. Like you can’t be a real feminist unless you are doing all of these tangentally related things, and even if you are doing them we are gonna ding you for eating meat.

I think the family restroom is a good example of a potential solution. They were created because a small percentage of the population have multiple small children and/or children of opposite genders that they need to help go to the bathroom. Rather than radically redesign all restrooms to accomodate this small…

What’s weird to me is that in prior administrations having an undocumented housekeeper or nanny was immediate grounds for rejection., but in the Trump administration, it’s no biggie.

I have a normal jobby job that is pretty unimportant, as things go, and I do not have time to watch Morning Joe in the morning. Like, unless you are a stay-at-home parent, retired, or have a shift that starts late, you should not be watching TV at 8am.
