As a member of the LGBTQ+ living in a different deep red state, I can answer “necessity and economic”.

This right here. When it mentioned a “young lesbian couple”, my first thought was WTF would they live in a state that hates LGBTQ+ people?

The people who most violently oppose covid-related restrictions like shutdowns and mask mandates are the people most responsible for there being a need for the restrictions. Yet, it is impossible to make them understand that they are the problem. They are the source of new virus variants, and it’s only a matter of…

I’m not sure why the size of it, the fact that it’s an urban area, or what it produces or does not produce (incidentally, a lot of people work in DC, it has its own economy and everything) is relevant. The residents of DC deserve representation. DC has a larger population than Wyoming.

People in DC don’t want to go back to Maryland. We shouldn’t make decisions about people’s lives based on Republican’s bad faith arguments. 

DC is its own place. I’ve never heard anyone in DC say “We want to go back to Maryland.”

On the one hand, a founding principle of this country is that people who pay taxes should have representation in the government, and denying DC statehood is blatantly inconsistent with that.  On the other hand, a founding principle of this country is that black people aren’t really Americans (or people) at all and…

That’s up to the people of Washington DC to decide, not you or I. If they want to become their own state that is their right and that is what should happen.

Fuck the police

Candidates for the true “Q” include General Michael Flynn, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, and Donald Trump himself.

You are using the “No True Scotsman” fallacy on race. And since race is some made-up shit you can sorta get away with it. But I tell you, if my daughters are black enough to get a heaping dose of racism, they are black enough to be black.

Seems like Markle is not black enough for you to defend her, and not white enough…

It’s been a long year, so you’re likely trolling out of sheer boredom, but I’m bored too, so...by “relative,” you mean Meghan’s mother, as opposed to Rachel Dolezal’s two white parents?

There’s also the, uh, interesting case of a mountain of debt disappearing right before the confirmation hearings were set to begin.

Honestly, I like the anti-gossip approach. People shouldn’t give up their privacy just because they sing or act or look good in a swimsuit, or because of who their parents were. If somebody’s abusive or a criminal, okay, that’s valid news, but if it’s just “she’s put on weight” or “he broke up with his girlfriend,”…

Of all people Sharon Osborne, wife of Ozzy Fucking Osborne, parent to two children who have a very rough time with the media, I would think she would understand the media attacking someone unfairly. Friend or no friend....if she can’t see that Piers Morgan quite clearly has a very vile, vindictive agenda when it…

That is only the tip of the iceberg. By defending Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne is also validating his baseless claim that Meghan Markle is lying about having suicidal thoughts. This is insanely hypocritical. Sharon has publicly talked about her own suicide attempts. The woman knows firsthand how important it is to…

WTF are they investigating? She said all this shit on air.

“I’m not racist… I don’t care what color or what religion anyone is,” she continued. “Are you a nice person? That’s what I judge you on.”

Can you just imagine how many of these conversations happen unrecorded?

I don’t like how all these apology statements talk about how the person may have “hurt” other people and other communities. When minorities are angry, we are not angry because we are victims, like we are weak people to are slighted by the smallest breeze. We are angry because you disrespected us. You signaled that you…
