And where have we seen these horrible kinds of tactics before?

I know! But oddly enough, seeing Orrin Hatch make this mistake is like the most “human” thing I’ve seen out of him in decades. For a second, I thought, “Wow, maybe he’s not one of the alien reptile overlords!” then it occurred to me that they have probably conceded the necessity of appearing to make convincing…

I agree. I don’t have any personal experience with a family member about dementia, and I certainly have no academic expertise in that area, but at the end of the day, chalking up Trump’s overall shitty behavior to “cognitive decline” or “dementia” seems like a weird function of selective benevolence and/or wishful…

Mississippi person here: can confirm.

Jesus, I’m from Mississippi and people are like “DAMN that’s racist as hell.” When thousands of Mississippians notice something as racist, IT’s RACIST. This is NOT what “everyone is thinking.”

Mississippi person here: can confirm. It’s true, the racism is much more closeted and much more a function of lack of interaction and/or someone’s clock having stopped decades ago, but the worst sin in Mississippi (for white people) is to be “thought of” or “perceived as” a racist. Their/our idea of a “racist” is…

I agree. Trump said/did something really shitty, and then the Wall Street Journal rescues him with a twelve-year-old “sex scandal.”

The “Would You Rather: Trump Edition” game is going to be spectacular someday.

I’m probably wrong (I usually am about almost everything) but I interpret the genuine continent-wide horror and “I need to take a break” reactions of you, me, spartey (upthread) and so many others as evidence that Trump’s racist bullshit is not getting normalized and it is not making his base any bigger. (Louder,…

But “violent” is kind of fantastic as a typo. My typos come out as [pysypr when all I’m trying to type is “potatoe.” Can’t even snark on Dan Quayle with that shit. #teamviolenttypo  

Hey, listen. I was crestfallen to learn that “Daniels” was only part of her stage name. Otherwise, I was gonna try and reach out: “Well hey there, cousin! So what’s been going on with that whole Donald Trump story?” Alas.

Oh, it’s all going to be okay, going to be just fine. BRAVE Sen. Orrin Hatch says that he“looks forward to a more detailed explanation” of Trump’s remarks. So, we’ve apparently entered the cycle where old white guys have stopped being “concerned” or “disappointed” when Trump says something horribly racist to where…

Is not having to go to all the meetings part of white privilege? *Asking for my Whiteness.

Exactly. “Dastardly” is just sitting right there. All he had to do was watch Wacky Races cartoons decades ago or switched the channel to Boomerang and he could’ve stumbled onto that one. But this is the same guy who hung around Steve Bannon for months and only came up with “sloppy.”

Ha-haaaa! This is a lot better than the Amazon Gift card. Thank you!

Upping the ante: the possibility that somehow the Spacey scenes will end up on the DVD/Blu-Ray bonus features. (For which Mark Wahlberg will get an additional miilion, and Michelle Williams will get an Amazon gift card for $200).

Thank you and partner for the explanation!

True. The SAE’s at Ole Miss recently got their charter pulled and the cryptic official comment was that the pledges were released due to concerns for their personal safety. WTF does that even MEAN?

DISCLAIMER: I am not a CA attorney. I did read the complaint, which alleges gender and race discrimination, but only makes allegations under California law. No federal / Title VII rights are alleged to have been violated.

C’mon, Sassy, DISH. You know you want to.
