Yes, tough to come up with a perfect 1 to 1 comparison. Maybe if a Democratic nominee flirted with the idea of communism the way Trump flirts with fascism? My point is just that if there was some Democratic nominee like that, I think I would have a hard time resisting the thought process of “there are checks and

Thank you! So many replies in this thread are dinging her for the wording she used in her statement, or for being a Republican generally. If she can make a statement like this, doing her part to try to turn the Republican Party around from the racism and misogyny that are ingrained in it then good for her.

As a lifelong Dem, I’ve been trying to imagine what it would be like if some nutbar had the Democratic nomination. Would I really be able to bring myself to vote for Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz? Navarro seems like a smart, principled lady, and though I imagine she and I would disagree on a lot of policy, I am giving her

“Baby, how you doin’? Aw, don’t be like that, I just wanna make you great again.”

I lost my dad when I was fairly fresh out of college, and was the first of my friend group to lose a parent. They were sorry and supportive and didn’t really know what to do - and that’s okay! So I can’t imagine your SIL is holding any kind of grudge at you. Now several years removed from his death, I really, really

That scene STILL makes me give him the side eye. Yeah, she did come back to life, and yeah, I know you’re an actor in a fictional series, but dammit can’t Buffy catch a break?

I think celebs who do it are contractually obligated (Kardazzians), thirsty and indifferent to whether it’s a scam (hi Snooki), or, like the non-famous who fall for his schtick, grieving a loss and hoping for some sort of resolution. As far as whether the celebs actually provide some advance details to the

What about a dog in some really slammin’ sunglasses? Have you thought about that, Mike? Don’t deny the American people a dog wearing sunglasses.

I think my favorite Jezebel headline this year was “20-year-old witch makes Matt Lauer cry”. My only regret is that he wasn’t 19 when he met with Lauer so he could have been described as “teen witch.”

Just when I thought my eyes couldn’t widen any more at this mess. And yet, if he is a schizophrenic who is unmedicated, that could explain a lot of his behavior. Yikes.

Pretty much any tail-swishing means “you’re gonna get it, human.” If cat walks towards you with tail raised high, that is a greeting.

Well, his human servant did say he was “having a bit of a grumble.” A delightfully British sounding phrase I intend to borrow.

They did do a women’s one a while ago. I think it was reader solicited suggestions, but, like this, it was equal parts “duh” or “what? No.”

Speaking of his concern trolling, yesterday 538 ran an “article” that was basically “on a scale of 1 to 10, how much should democrats panic right now.” The content was just the various contributors having a chat. Aside from being alarmist, it was so stupid.

Did not mean for my comment to be a dig at you in any way, and I do like the celeb gossip (especially of the Kardashian variety, so help me). Schumer’s behavior here is just silly bordering on obnoxious. As you mention, people aren’t going to be swayed from snapping a pic just bc you’re wearing sunglasses. Take them

I will have the foods, with a side of ALL the foods. Yeah, just keep bringing refills until November 9. Thanks.

This is correct. He has nothing in mind, or whatever insane thought occurs to him for a fleeting second, and then poof it’s gone, so it’s back to nothing again.

Hah, I liked her meh. I still like J. Law, but so help me I find Anne Hathaway completely insufferable.

Women would call other women basic much more than guys would. But it it’s not the insult ‘you, so-and-so, are basic’ that was popularized as much as it was the idea that there was yet another undesirable trait that women had to avoid.  Really it’s a way to make women feel insecure for liking things that are popular,

*Extended eye roll at Schumer.* Sunglasses, inside, at a gym class, where it’s pitch black. Doesn’t call attention to yourself at all.
