The Discourse is tone policing/CivilityTM by another name. The Discourse is the reason that the NYT interviews dapper Nazis and criticizes Congresswomen for their manners when they talk about the very important and sacred office of the presidency.

Also I’m mad because I picked Biden for my Final Four. 

THIS. Just because said shitty dog belongs to a Trump it’s being cancelled? Biden can do some real damage in this country, that dog is just going to hump white people’s legs. How can you vote for anything but Biden?

I really don’t understand how Ivanya’s Nazi Dog won out over Joe Biden. That makes no sense to me.

How did Reboots win over the GoT dudes? Some reboots are actually good. The GoT dudes on the other hand are consistently tone-deaf at best.

Plastic straws are killing sea turtles, you monster!

Indeed, paper straws being awful just might be the only thing that the current president and I agree on.

Tom died in a car accident and wouldn’t you know, Kate received a heart transplant. The heart was Tom’s. Last Christmas, he gave her his heart.

I think she’s too old for him to be interested.

Kylie and Drake’s ‘relationship’ is merely a mutually beneficial contract.

Gourmet Makes is great not just because it’s great, but because you get a feel for Chris and Brad, and then you go watch their shows, and then you want to see more of what Molly is doing, so you go check out her series and then, and then, and then... you’ve watched literally every video they’ve posted and are waiting…
