The word “panties” is like the word “moist” - people say it and I just want to shudder away from hearing it. Ugh.  (I didn’t mean gross and offensive as in, like, actually morally bad.)

Yeah! Now is the time to turn on each other, Democrats!

“Kamala is a Cop” memes and shit is not “legitimate criticism.” Lawyers gonna lawyer. AG is a common way to get into politics. Whatever. I don’t love everything about her but will I take her over literally anyone involved in the Trump administration, ten times over? YES.

Joe Biden isn’t a Boomer; he’s of the  Silent Generation (which has never produced a president before). We actually skipped the silent gen (JFK, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and GHWBush were all “GI Generation”; Clinton, GWBush and Trump were Boomers, and Obama was Gen X. This is the first time we’re going BACK TWO…

In my opinion, the problem with Ms. Abrams is lack of experience. I am impressed by her and hope she has a long career in politics. Once she has some experience she might make a great president.

She was utterly unqualified. I mean she obviously would be ten billion times better than the current occupants. But she lost, fair or not, her race for governor. She has less experience than mayor Pete, who had no business running. She is brilliant, but brilliance isn’t the only quality we need. I was sort of hoping…

I mean the snarky headline and the overall meh write up is not a great sign. 

I totally agree with you, but what a sign of progress that the daughter of Jamaican and Indian immigrants who is married to a Jew is the (yawn) obvious choice. Also, any progressive who won’t vote for Biden because of his VP choice isn’t a real progressive - they’re just a Chapo anarchist who wants to burn it all down.

Okay, so can we get a promise from Jezebel not to tank her and Biden both with the “Kamala is a cop” stuff?! Lots riding on this ticket, folks.

This is my shocked face. It was the obvious choice. It’s not the choice that progressives might have wanted but Biden is obviously trying to blunt the Trump Law&Order narrative. Besides, when President Biden has a stroke, or is otherwise incapacitated, I think she would be a fine President. 

How to be an AV Club writer:

Says the guy who complained about people making murals honoring an unarmed man who was killed by police for having a fake $20 bill because he had a criminal history, cares more about abusers than their victims because “what about their livelihood”, and thinks toxic work environments can be magically solved by HR...

Someone on Twitter said it should have been Lizzo, and they are 1000% right because not only would she look fab, but she’d bring something musically to the table.

My name is Kylie J and I’m here to say,

I know that the UES does have a lot of $$$, but it also has a huge number of folks who are CERTAINLY not rich. I live (in a very small apartment) elsewhere in Manhattan and this is such a garbage take. Who do they think works on the UES? Who runs the cafes and bodegas and restaurants? The lack of compassion is…

Failing to read a contract before signing isn’t a defense in court.

That entitles them to back pay. Not ownership of the IP.

Exactly what I said on another thread.

Yeah it’s all “If you didn’t make me so mad I wouldn’t have hit you” victim blaming it honestly begs the question if they condone someone using violence or threats of violence to steal another person’s belongings what else would they condone?

It’s interesting how many commenters came here to say that basically who cares that people are getting robbed if it’s in the UES. Maybe you don’t live in nyc or know anything about it, but just like most places, there are good people who live in the area, and surprise, they’re not all rich people. Hardly.
