Reaganomics is bullshit, but it has successfully brainwashed people into feeling guilty for using government services. It’s worked so well you have a lot of arguing over the $600 which they think unemployed (lazy! unintelligent!) people don’t “deserve.” You have people stomping their feet about “their” tax dollars…

In the wake of the recession they managed to tighten the belt even more and now that state governments are inundated with applications, we find that they’re unprepared and unwilling to help.

Just remember that any politician/rich person insisting that $600 dollars a week is too much is being willfully ignorant. Rather than the banana costing $10, they choose to believe that it costs 10 cents and that you’re buying lobster or new TVs with your luxurious unemployment money (which you can, and should, if you…

Ryan Murphy stuff can be a mess, but don’t we all dream of having the type of power where you can literally throw anything at the wall and some executive will pay you millions and produce it?

I hate his smug, smarmy, bulldog face. The way he cocks his head and talks dismissively to reporters as if he’s the smartest guy in the room. The way he spins everything as a success and admonishes people for being afraid.

We’re on the same page. People, adult and children, will die when they don’t need to.

We can reliably say this disease is contagious in the extreme. What do we do with that information? Ignore it in favor of political gain.

You are correct! We now need our bodyguard-mental health expert teachers to suck it up and deal with COVID.

Do we really need to parse that though? Yes, we all agree kids are less likely to die and less likely to have severe illness. The same is true of young adults.

I can only hope that the writing is on the wall for most Americans at this point: the economy is not going to recover in two months with 200k dead, millions evicted, and our hospitals overrun.

Additionally, Israel re-opened their schools which contributed to a spike in cases.

Here in Florida (surprise!) a number of schools decided to go forward with in-person graduation ceremonies in the last few weeks. Students were allowed to have guests and were socially distanced with the majority of the ceremony taking place outside in the Florida heat. At each of these ceremonies, on different days,…

I think what makes that event less damaging is that:

I had to Google it and that occurred in 2007 when we as a culture were less online and less inclined to “cancel” people. If we got to cancel every celebrity who violated the terms of their animal adoptions, at least 1/3rd of Hollywood would be cancelled.

It seems to have been an open secret on the internet that she was mean for a while. Back when she excused being friends with GWB some stories were trickling out. This current situation seems more prime? for airing her laundry at large.

Thank you. Save Martha!

When I tell people this story, they tell me that hazmat should have cleaned the mess. I had no idea at the time, I just felt it was my responsibility to clean it up. In this time of COVID, DO NOT go touching any poop surfaces especially. Here goes:

“You see, after reviewing the play-by-play in my head, I was wearing protection for most of our copulation. it would seem that, toward the end I deviated from doing so. That’s unfortunate. I guess we’ll wait and see if you get pregnant!”

Don’t know a specific book but as part of your contract with Satan/a demon you have to eat ass. Wiki article

A demon can do whatever is convenient in the moment, apparently. In this Wiki article, a woman, Walpurga Hausminnin, was tortured for being a suspected witch. She confessed to trying to have sex with a man she was not married to but when they were meant to meet up a demon showed up in his place, seemingly in corporeal…
