I don’t understand how showrunners don’t realize it’s a moral decision when they decide whether to depict someone smoking or not.  It adds nothing to the character or the story.  If you can't depict your characters stress level and intensity through other means, maybe you should be looking for other career paths.

Isn’t the one about the yearbook a Simpson's episode?

Dude, you’ve finally done it. You’ve said something i unequivocally disagree with.  I am disappoint.  

My concern about this is that, historically, the executive branch of the government has never been held accountable for illegal actions, and really, that’s why we’re at the point we are at now. They know they can act with impunity, they know there will be no repercussions. It may already be too late, too many…

Something about this mug story doesn’t quite add up. Shit stinks.  Everyone would have noticed the smell and found it objectionable.  As much as they would have appreciated this gesture of abuse, I think the mug would have ended up sealed up in the trash because the smell would have been unbearable.

Yeah, I don’t know how other people feel about it but to me it says more about the audience members than it does about Bernie.

Just want to say this was a very enjoyable read, mostly because it was so well written!  Keep up the good work!

On the other hand, I’m excited that so many lay people will be reading a 400 page legal document. If only more people read legal documents the government would not get away with half the shit they do.

Yes, somehow everyone I talk to wants to talk about Mayor Pete. The Never Bernie Dems may have found the perfect stooge.  He even had the added benefit of being gay - 'Whatever, you just don't like him because you're a homophobe!'

The Democratic elites, who give the favoured candidate the debate questions before the debate.

May the gods of Olympus bless them. They are trying to make the world a better place. Road works in many countries are rife with corruption and buried in red tape. A Roman business man once told me it was easier to get divorced than it is to fire someone. Given what I know about Italian bureaucracy (and don’t get me…

I think you might be misreading the spirit of what those people are saying. Everytime I see a dude trying to fight baldness, and losing, I kind of feel obligated to help them out. It’s kind of like seeing a family member wearing a ridiculous shirt - if I like them, and care about them, I tell them they should change…

I must say that's quite nice.

I travel to Italy occasionally and seeing old 500's really brightens my day. Once saw a convoy of old 500's moving through Florence.  Here's one I saw in the town of Amalfi.

It’s all being funded by Peter Thiel.

Bernie’s an ace at engaging with conservative audiences. He doesn’t get snarky.

This is what Bernie does, and he’s good at it. I expected it, and I welcome it. Not everybody should attempt it because not everybody can pull it off. One of his greatest platforms in the last election was the Q&A he did at an Evangelical university.

The big issue is, the longer Trump goes unchallenged on claiming the results of the investigation are a victory for him, the longer that falsehood has the opportunity to settle into the collective consciousness as a fact. I wish people weren’t that stupid, but they are. It also gives the Repubs more time to formulate…

This one had me checking Google maps for time and distance.  16 hours.  Could be done, I guess.
