I honestly don’t get where you’re coming from. You say that “sometimes lack of information can be interesting, like in a mystery or detective fiction”. Why are you arguing that it’s not a mystery when it’s very very clearly playing out like a mystery? This is the only MCU show so far that has actually left me…

The only change this effects is that most decisions will now come down to Brown, Kagan, and Sotomayor vs the six other justices. Unless the Dems either a) expand the court between now and November, or b) find some way to unrig the senate (DC+PR statehood for a start), this will probably be the last time a Dem nominee…

For most Republicans, “originalism” is just code for “doing what I want”.

“The thing is though, if someone like Judge Jackson Brown only got 3 republican votes, the anti-black sentiment must run very deep among them.”

I mean, he was making Cop Out. How good of a mood could you expect him to be in?

Alopecia really is a real autoimmune disease.

He was about the same size as Hogan, just a little slimmer. And Hogan is so huge that the WWF was always having a hard time finding him credible opponents.

Anything you see in American culture can also be found in Canadian culture. We get a never ending firehose of your culture, to the point where many Canadians don’t seem to fully understand that we live in another country entirely (see Canadian dipshit trucker protesters talking about the “first amendment”).

“People didn’t seem to care about a bunch of men going to strip clubs on their time off to enjoy the female figure back in the 80's and 90's”

When I was a small child in the late 70s and early 80s, the way I learned “eeny meeny miney mo” was the “old” way. I didn’t know what that word was yet, but it was also used to describe brazil nuts (a term I didn’t know). At some point everybody started using “tiger” instead, but I’m not sure how or why it changed so…

JFC that’s fucking gross.

Every cop who helps cover for a bad cop is a bad cop. Every cop who stays silent about a bad cop is a bad cop. Every cop who has ever uttered the phrase “better to be judged by twelve than carried by six” is a bad cop.

The (usually) unspoken assumption when people complain about “affirmative action” is that candidates of color are inherently inferior. It never crosses their little pinhead minds that they’re telling on themselves when they assume that white people losing out on jobs or promotions is reverse racism and not equal…

Keefe 100% knows how it sounds.

It bothers me too, but there’s no putting the toothpaste back in the tube. “On accident” will be the preferred usage and “by accident” will be archaic within a couple of decades. This is how language has always evolved, and it’s why we’re communicating in English instead of some proto-language.

The ice cubes and salt in a coffee pot thing doesn’t require waiting. Just dump a bunch of ice cubes and salt in there, swirl it around for 10-20 seconds, then rinse. Voila, you’ve got a perfectly clean, clear glass carafe.

The thing about that is that it’s basically never affluent white men who get wrongly convicted of murder and sentenced to death; it’s the people that the GOP already hates and distrusts, disproportionately black men. Any time there’s one of these cases in the media, right wingers are all over the place ready to…

I think they legitimately thought that there would be 100% crossover between viewers of Mando and Boba Fett. They didn’t seem to consider that someone (like me) would eagerly watch every episode of Mando as soon as it dropped, but then watch only one episode of Boba Fett because it sucked really, really badly. I…

I know it’s been said a million times, but just... imagine looking like those three dopes and thinking that you’re inherently superior to anyone, anywhere, ever.

There is no social gathering more odious and tiresome than a party full of actors. Luckily, the time in my life when I interacted socially with such people is long past. I’m shuddering just thinking of some of the afterparties I went to back in the day, and all the self-important, malignant narcissists I encountered…
