You’re completely and utterly missing the point. The rarity or frequency of school shootings isn’t the fucking point. The training or eagerness of the teachers to accept the guns isn’t the point. Giving guns to teachers—whether they have training or not—simply opens a fucking Pandora’s Box of new potential tragedies.…

Who would have possibly thought that arming a bunch of non-combatants with minimal training would rapidly become more complicated than “good guy shoots bad guy?”

She has learned how to publicly respond to inquiries poking at the edges of the issue— “I’m not a person of color. I’m not a citizen of a tribe.”—but when the nerve is touched, she reverts to her mental cue cards, instinctively reeling off many of the plans she has for this country.

BTW, let’s be clear about something: We don’t want Trump making a deal with North Korea, because the deal would undoubtedly be worse than present relations. Trump is utterly incapable of an acceptable deal with the nation because he is incurious with no sense of history or ethics or much of anything else for that…

This is what you get when you let someone accustomed to applying their “Art of the Deal” tactics to Monopoly games, play in the real world: humans die.

Agreed. Being a very good boy is a state of being that transcends the surly bonds of gender, as well as the shallow confines of English pronouns and naming conventions.

Not a real dog.

20 years ago isn’t yet the distant past?

Intentional policy, intentional abuse, intentional consequences. What’s wrong with what Congresswoman Underwood said? Oh, it was the truth. Well, shit.

The only way to stop a bad guy with a milkshake is a good guy with a milkshake.

Kilmeade went directly to “the call’s coming from inside the house,” didn’t he?

Holy.  Shit.

Things have gotten so bad that police are actually telling stores not to sell milkshakes when certain politicians come around.

Myyyyyyy milkshake brings all the Wehrmacht to the yard/
And they’re like, “Ja das ist gut,”/
Yeah they’re like, “Ja das ist gut,”/
Now they lookin for some boden und blut.

I dunno, I’m off form today. The bottom line is that this is awesome as an alternative to physical violence, as it gets the point across without…

Yara: “Wait, we can do that?”

My favorite part about this series, any series, really, is the completely surprising and unexpected criticism from adult children who could most definitely write, direct, and shoot a better series. (/s)

And with that, GOT comes to an end.

I wish that this was a sign of the dam breaking and the tide turning in Congress, but unless the Senate Republicans grow a pair and decide to do what is best for our democracy, we’re screwed.

Representative Ocasio-Cortez makes it easy to love her in a lot of ways. Her fire, passion, and commitment to do the job she was elected to do—rather than just focusing on getting reelected from the first day of her term—are a refreshing set of changes from the daily grind of political prevarication and mealy-mouthed…

Shit like this is why I love Warren. I’ve always had a positive association with our nation’s military (grew up in it, married back into it, and tried to serve myself), but every time I go to a post, whether it’s Knox, Leonard Wood, or what have you, the one station that’s always playing at the PX/BX or any of the…
