Bush was given a VP nod precisely because he was something Regan wasn’t, and the quick end to his presidential tenure arrived because he wasn’t enough of anything to deserve another shot at defining it. To file Bush away under Reagan is lazy history.

It may be technically illegal but considering that it’s a fantastic way for rich offspring to gain/retain political clout for their families, not too many people directly affected are going to complain too hard. It’s not too dissimilar from medieval/renaissance Europe sending a 2nd son into the clergy or a daughter to…

Accept 100% agrees with you

That’s true to a point, in that a degree from Mass Art or some other lower tier school and a UPenn film/theatre graduate that I’m interviewing for a position next week. I graduated from a top 30 liberal arts school and was able to fuck around in my early 20s and still get interviews for positions very easily when I…

Yeah. In addition for it to be frustrating to have all sorts of difficulties trying to actually converse with the people on here, I now have the oddest kinja account of all time as the only sites I’m ungreyed on are Jezebel and Jalopnik.

Outside of Air BnB, I’d wager that the technological advances of a soldier’s quarters have not kept up with that of their armaments. And Federalist 29 was proven wrong when Napoleon showed how stupid the Jacobins and Thermidorians were to think a citizen militia could win wars because they were free citizens fighting…

It’s equivalent to saying “Fine, let’s just have nothing for dinner then!” when your kids say they don’t want hot dogs again.

Vote for the person you agree with. Thank you.

She’s voting what we’re all thinking! Or possibly, saying how we’re all voting? I really need to workshop this one.

Well that’s not at all the correct take away from this. This own website would not exist without the protections of 1st amendment.

All of this. As soon as you hear a Republican politician or waterboy ask “but how are we supposed to pay for this?” you know they’re no longer arguing in good faith. It’s fascinating how little true conservatism is left in the Republican party.

I’ve been revisiting Mike Duncan’s Revolutions podcast recently, specifically the French, Haitian and July & June revolutions, and I’ve been struck by how many different types of Socialists, Republicans, Liberals and Communists there were floating around back in the 18/19th centuries. I really wish we did a better job…

Also a fair point as it doesn’t take into account the fact that Super Mutants were the product of a pre-war non-Vault-Tec related human experimentation, uncontrolled radiation from the nuclear bombs and pre-F1(/post-76) trial-and-error.

That’s a fair point. 5 years ago there was a large amount of vague “economic uncertainty” that has since revealed itself to be the fact that many white Americans are more willing to lose ground on economic issues (taxation, pensions, unions etc.) in favor of retaining social influence. Which makes sense, historically…

No, unfortunately it’s not. I’d argue the opposite, even the openly racist crap like this is toned down. Statistically speaking, this man would have been more likely to have assaulted the mother and daughter even 50 years ago. This asshole from Ohio’s father was probably of the same mind as those quoted in that…

I forget how to be 10 years old, should I go “nah-ah” or “yeah-huh” to this?

I know it’s not the 80s so people assume cocaine doesn’t exist anymore but “coke dealer arrested” isn’t all that large of a story. A much larger matter of public concern is “cops re-create Blues Brothers car chase”. 

They should have nuked the speeder from orbit. That’s the only way to be sure.

Yeah, really. In the Kinja universe I’m currently un-greyed only by Jezebel and Jalopnik. Which is about as diametric of places as Kinja gets.

It was just a joke!
