I don’t really speak to my father anymore. At one time, we were great friends. We didn’t have to agree on everything, but we could find common ground on a great many subjects.

Similar to what you say about your father, mine has also always been known for his intellect. He home schooled my half brother and half sister…

...on a completely unrelated note, can we get a gofundme to shoot this asshole’s corpse into the sun?

Yep. Age seems a bit like alcohol, in that it can bring out how you truly feel. And it often seems like it boils down to the way you perceive your own life in relation to others.

I am similarly reminded of a different quote.  When Kenneth Lay, evil overlord of Enron, died, Henry Rollins quipped:  “Good.  Stay dead, motherfucker.”

I’m starting to think that as people age they either become harder and more hateful, or softer and more loving. Rush Limbaugh, Qanon, Tea Party politics, etc just hasten the process and make it happen faster.

My earliest memory of him is when he repeatedly bullied Chelsea Clinton - who was 12 or 13 at the time - by referring to her as the White House dog. More than once. 

This Femi-Nazi feels no sorrow.

In times like these I am always reminded of the famous Bette Davis quote on the passing of Joan Crawford:

The thing about apologies from past abusers is that they are usually for the abuser. The abuser went to therapy and realized they did something wrong, the abuser feels bad and reaches out to the person they victimized. What in that scenario is about the victim? What if the victim doesn’t desire an apology and contact…

You mean this photo?  What gets me is the men hanging their heads in shame; unlike President Dumb Fuck J. Drama Queen, they are shame-able.  

Great analogy, though I think she stands to lose even more, opportunity-wise, than Wallen. Her character was a fan favorite and she was almost certainly going to lead a new spinoff show on D+. From there, who knows?

I see Timberlake as noticeably more fuckboyage than average — Britney, Janet, Jessica Simpson (a minor anecdote about him kissing her and showing off about it, but still superdouchey), and, of course, his wife (all the cheating rumours). He is a Nice Guy who is anything but yet he coasts on that rep

Gay men can also be misogynists.

AOC brings out the weirdness in people in a very fucked up way. My mom is a huge leftie, but when AOC publicly disagreed with Pelosi, my mom went on some creepy rant about how Pelosi should slap AOC across the face for such backtalk and AOC deserved a spanking for what she’s done and she needs to shut up and listen…

Same reason Forrest Gump, What’s Eating Gilbert Grape, I Am Sam, etc etc etc were nominated. Hollywood LOVES faked disability. Because “look how talented these abled actors are by pretending to have a condition they have never personally experienced and we have no idea if it’s even accurate because we have no personal…

Her association with the extremely ableist Autism Speaks organization is proof enough that this film is a travesty, but then to hear that there are “restaint scenes” and stuff that she’s “planning to remove”, like what in the ever-living fuck with this already.  It’s amazing how she won’t let this objectively damaging…

Still totally baffled as to how this was nominated for a Golden Globe. I checked RT to see if it actually ended up being well-received despite the initial criticism...and it has a 29%.

I’m beginning to think that one of the main draws of evangelical Christianity is the ability to shift the blame to Satan whenever you do something shitty.

Meanwhile, Satan is over there saying “Listen, lady, you caused your own problems.  Don’t bring me into it.”

If I understand this correctly: basically, Reddit figured out how to manipulate stocks in the same (legal) ways hedge funds do, but the apps people use to make those trades are essentially owned by the hedge funds. To stop the hedge funds hemmhoraging money, they’re forcing the apps to stop allowing (not rich) people…
