Right? Also, it could easily be relevant in the exact opposite way: people with privilege sometimes act like people with privilege. I’ve seen tons of people who think they are above the rules simply because they are oh-so-important.

maybe I’m a horribly shitty person, but when I saw this blowing up on social media I gave it the side eye. I felt like for one, another person pimping their kid’s experience for notoriety. for two, how do we know this is even the case and not coached, coerced, etc? now I’m also a shitty person because I feel somewhat…

Seriously, who the hell is in the car with their crying child and thinks “hmm let me film this and put it on social media...” ???

Considering most polls have him in the low 30s, I’d say this one is an outlier. Much like Trump himself, who is an out-and-out liar.

The democratic base does a good enough job of fracturing itself on its own—we saw it with Barack and Hillary, we saw it with Hillary and Bernie, we see it time and time again. The Democratic party is a far broader and more diverse coalition than the Republican party, but we still expect our candidates to be all things…

It’s likely that we will lose a senate seat if Franken resigns. A special election will be held and someone will be elected in a state that almost went to trump where the other senator is a dem (making people feel like they need to “balance” with the other seat). The person Franken won the seat from was a republican.

There is a difference between advising women not to let their guard down and saying that women who ostensibly have let their guard down are making excuses for fucking up when they get raped while their guard is down. Will I advise my daughter to be careful and not drink too much at parties lest she end up incapable of…

My mother has sent in DNA tests for both her and my father. So if my DNA has already been compromised... why not? I guess the kick is my UNIQUE combination of DNA might not have been compromised?

I’d rather pick lint out of the carpet with my teeth than spend even a minute talking with such willfully ignorant people like this.

I haven’t seen Lady Bird... but that top shot of her in the prom dress is about as Pretty-in-Pinkish as you can get. Not sure if that’s intentional. But the poor-kid coming of age genre isn’t as barren as you suggest.

I’mma be real with you, I’m not that into Thankstaking. I feel like it’s just a plot by turkey farmers to convince you to spend a shit of money on things you can buy and eat all year. #cynic

TRUCK FUMP

I think putting XL behind the name makes it leak proof, so we should be fine.

Yup, we insist on a perfect world. They live in the world that actually exists.

No, I mean their politicians whenever they’re attacked for something. Conservatives rally and keep them in office while liberals/progressives immediately throw them to the wolves. Ask Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama.

So the big topic of a Republican Senatorial candidate embroiled in a sex scandal will end with a Democratic Senator being forced to resign. Like clockwork.

Obviously, Kevin had mental health issues stemming from his incarceration. We need to do more to improve access to psychiatrists and social workers after prisoners are released.

Boot Alabama, but admit Puerto Rico, so we don’t have to buy new flags.

Yeah the hard pivot to “IT’S ABOUT ETHICS IN ENTERTAINMENT JOURNALISM!!!” was pretty transparent and laughable.
