I think it’s somewhat of a delusion. There’s a strong attitude of “I got mine, so fuck you”. It’s why some women are happy to support the establishment like Serena Joys in Gilead. She’s got her position of status, so why should she give a damn about how “lesser women” are treated?

Friendly reminder that it’s an officer’s entire scope of duty to build a case against you as soon as you are suspected of anything. Don’t say or do anything that could possibly fortify that case.

I’ve done the same for the last 10 years, but that’s mostly just because Marvel’s got me whipped to expect stuff.

So, he set out to write an article about how we’re actually doing well as a country and things aren’t as racist as we all think, but then when he looks at the data he finds out that shit is actually terrible? Whodathunkit? At least he didn’t cherry-pick to fit his original goal that we aren’t as racist as everyone…

I have three parasites, all mixed tramps from the pound. They regularly compete for the affection of each person in my family. They keep the yard safe from squirrels and strangers, and they love a snuggle when we’ve had a bad day. My children are learning empathy for other beings and responsibilities of caring for…

By this logic, will Piers Morgan please shut the fuck up and go away forever?

The thing is that the GOP has the tactic of getting the poor to not see themselves as poor but rather, as Will Rogers put it, “temporarily inconvenienced millionaires”. In other words, the only reason they aren’t rich like they should be is because they aren’t America-ing hard enough and because immigrants and brown…

My how Camelot would fall if Spielberg (BFFs with Streep and other icons) were the creeper

I believe that was the original commenter’s point: that they still don’t feel safe enough to name names unless there is more than one person willing to join with them and say “me too”.

Wait, so if research is done on something people find out stuff we don’t want them to know? Well shit, let’s make sure they can’t research anymore! Gotta keep up that status quo. Let’s change the subject to how all our problems are tied to immigrants instead. Maybe if we fill our constituents with hate for the other…

I take it to mean that he’s taking the role seriously since there have been some legendary performances from others as that character (except for Leto, eff that guy).

I’d substitute “Mexicans” for just “brown people” which therefore could include Obama or immigrants from other “shit hole countries”

I played Half-Life (1) while I was in high school including Counter-Strike and the original Team Fortress. I was playing HL2 when I met my wife. My oldest son is now a teenager and grew up playing HL2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. My two youngest play Portal 2 on co-op together to this day. Yes, the games are old…

I also like the entirety of “The Game” and most of “Innuendo”

On the subject of “These Are The Days Of Our Lives”, I recently bought the album “Innuendo” on vinyl and found that when I listen to it through great headphones and close my eyes his vocal track is so clear and isolated that I can almost picture how he moves toward and away from the mic at times, takes breaths, and…

Plenty of terrible people like art. Allen snitched on his coke dealer to avoid spending decades in jail. Just because he’s decided to collect paintings doesn’t make him interesting in a way that negates who he is as a person. That’s like bringing up Hitler’s art or his supposed vegetarianism as a way of saying he’s…

The Bundys and their circle were domestic terrorists, plain and simple, who took over federal property (but forgot to bring snacks) when the law didn’t go their way. Why give them the limelight again after they were (IMHO wrongly) exonerated for their crimes?

It seems to me that, in the meeting where he was confronted, he just told his [all women] staff what they wanted to hear (that he’d resign) but didn’t mean a word of it. Then, he researched if he could get into any trouble for firing them all, consulted state law, realized he lives in a “fire at will” state, and…

There are specific fighting forms in the Jedi lore each with their own distinctive styles and purposes. I’m betting since Kylo trained under Luke and since Rey has only fought Kylo (and briefly trained under Luke) she’d have picked up enough to have a similar tactic in combat out of sheer osmosis.

If you aren’t among the privileged class then America has never really been great, it’s just had a great PR campaign. And when you complain that you don’t have it great like all of the others around you have it you’re told that you don’t know how to America properly. It’s like a bad religion where your suffering is…
