Concord MA is a special place. You will see octagenarians wearing Che Guevara tees buying their artisanal bread at the local grocery store.

OH! This place is near me! They have a wonderful restaurant/bakery and also sell their breads in local stores. IMO it always looked like a very clean place. They probably just shouldn’t have poked the FDA with imaginary ingredients on the label.

So you’ve got dukes, marquess, earls, viscounts, and barons. Duke is a dog’s name, marquess is confusing because it sounds kind of like a woman’s title, earl was popular for a time but woe upon any child given it now, and viscount can be mispronounced. It’s baron, if you need your child to be born with a title.

Well there were a few people who heard that she said “I hate Americans” during some   donut licking episode in a bakery a few years ago and felt that the terrorist attack at her concert was her just punishment for hating America. Not sure how the actual victims of the killer factored into this revenge fantasy…

I went to school at a place that used a propane cannon to try to scare off vast flocks of starlings that roosted in the trees. The cannon was mounted in the back of a pickup that drove around campus in the early evening, while I was at work in the chem lab. I’m pretty sure it took a year off my life span.

We all are. You are no different. You don’t understand their experience more than they yours.

On the left we are all equal, but some of us more equal than others.

I was enjoying this as a clever parody of what the right thinks of the left. Oops.

“Everybody’s got to fight to be free, you see,

You completely missed the point. People were pointing to this tweet as meaning he respected his girlfriends. He didn’t, as it seems you recognize. It sounds like you are just looking for a reason to call a woman whiny.

You’re right.

True, and we’ll weigh things differently. Although I hope we’d all agree that we won’t count Hitler’s love of dogs and vegetarianism as a redeeming qualities.

You are beginning with an assumption about me that is incorrect. I didn’t say and don’t think all men are misogynists or that misogynists are entirely worthless and without positive contributions. A person can distrust and dislike women and still manage to do good in the world. There are plenty of examples of men…

I guess neither of us knows what was in his heart regarding Black people and civil rights, only his actions. I don’t think he went out on a limb much on civil rights. Arguably it helped his brand to become the sophisticated alternative. Anyway, what did it his activism amount to? Was it so a little Black girl could…

Paterno did as little as he could, as late as he could. He also used his status to bully anyone who challenged his authority over Penn State athletics. If he cared as much about the boys as he did for his reputation, he could have stopped Sandusky. He turned a blind eye until doing so would have put himself in…

Actually, anarchist is wise because he’s male. That allows him to see things clearly, without being overly affected by trivia like misogyny.

Hitler was directly responsible for the deaths of millions of children. How many children did he “like” and what does that even mean? I agree more than you may realize that all people are both good and bad. But some are so overwhelmingly bad that when you put their good on the scale it doesn’t even register. …

Well, it’s true society likes to simplify things. People like Joe Paterno and Bill Cosby were deified and that gave them license to act like monsters. I don’t see any redeeming qualities to Hefner or his legacy. Same with Donald Rumsfeld. But who knows, if we have 3+ more years of Trump my standards may change.

Sorry, sir!! I was waiting for you to give me my required reading list.

All I can say about Flynt was that he wasn’t (isn’t?) a hypocrite.
