You can thank those Texan-produced textbooks for that; growing up in the state, not only were unions non-existent, but it was basically a dirty word. The only reason for a lack of upheavel is that the cost of living is so low that anyone making $12 an hour did fine even if you could literally be fired for any reason…

I’m not saying that the drop in support for unions were associated with the civil rights movement and that anti-discrimination laws meant people of color could now participate in unions, the cornerstone of the strongest middle class the nation had ever seen, and how Republicans exploited the anxiety of white workers…

Right? It’s like you already hyped up most folks by the new album AND Kid Cudi collaboration AND working with Pusha T and Nas.

Did we ever really get the full story on why, exactly, Scott Walker dropped out of the primaries? Considering how abrupt he left the national platform, I’m still stunned this asshole is still an elected official.

UTSA, class of ‘11 so bit of a distance. That said, San Antonio’s about as purple as Austin or Houston and I purged the small “LOL libtard” brigade over the proceeding months after Election Day.

Jesus fucking Christ, can’t wait for this story to blow up from my former classmates from San Antonio who believe Sharia law is a serious threat to Texas and all.

The thing to take from this is that war nationalism WORKED. The military events at sports events, the standing for the National Anthem, the “Support Our Troops” mantra; for God’s sake, American Sniper was the #1 movie of 2015 and it had a script written by an eighth-grader.

You would put Marie Antionette over Children of Men???

So a number’s game.

Japan and South Korea play just as much, if not MORE, violent game content as the USA.

It’s worth pointing out both Gregg Popovich and Steve Kerr has consistently and more thoroughly discussed their utter disdain and disgust of Trump far more often than frankly any NBA player.

I WONDER FOX NEWS AND TRUMP ONLY TALK ABOUT OUTSPOKEN BLACK PLAYERS IT’S REALLY A FUCKING MYSTERY.

Food culture being pretentious as hell? Absolutely. Just odd to use a passage about Mario Batali advocating for food sustainability which is actually a pretty damn great thing to have occurred during this whole thing.

“The sociopolitical circle jerk over the Handmaid’s Tale ruined any desire I had to watch it (I generally enjoy dystopian fiction).”

Remember Wendy Davis? Even though she was famous for filibustering for fourteen hours to prevent Texas from defunding Planned Parenthood, this site and others dropped her like a wet sack because she was “personally” against abortion (this didn’t prevent Republicans from calling her Abortion Barbie) and had reach for…

I’m sorry, but is everyone just in some magical bubble and ignoring the compromises that a middle America Democrat has to make? Bernie’s RIGHT in the sense that we absolutely need more Democrats on the local and state level to make a change.

You know a lot of those other films are in fact good themselves? This comment section is being weird: yeah La La Land got a ton of nominations, but films like Moonlight, Arrival, Fences, Hiddem Figures, and others got some love so it’s definitely more versatile than the past couple of years.

Animated films rarely if ever get Best Visual Effects nominations, which is why I’m beyond happy that the Academy’s at least recognizing Kubo and the Two Strings.

The stadium drama may not end though; the initial reasoning for creating this stadium was a new home for UNLV’s football team. Even if the NFL doesn’t follow through, Adelson would almost certainly use that sweet public money to build a college football stadium.

Which is all the more perplexing considering how limp his 2008 primary campaign was; I’ve never recalled someone so disinterested yet bizarrely assured of pursuing a nomination before...at least until Carson came along.

Did you watch the review? He makes the great point that if all of a sudden there’s such a revision and consideration for the prequels, why the hell is all of the merchandise outside of TFA all the Original Trilogy? Wouldn’t people be going gaga for pod-racers or Jar-Jar or, umm, the monsters? The whole “the…
