Best part - it was Manhattan federal prosecutors - not Mueller.

I hate these xenophobic assholes so much. These DACA kids have walked a tightrope their entire lives in order to jump through all the hoops required to maintain their DACA status! Fuck these assholes who deliberately make their lives harder and even more stressful.

I tried to type a thoughtful comment but I think it’s best just to state the obvious. Higher tuition exacerbates social inequality. Many people (but not all) cannot escape the cycle of poverty without a college degree in this economy. My heart breaks for these kids. It seems that America is no longer interested in…

Groundskeeper Willy ring a bell or nah? Or do you just pick and choose what you find offensive? You’ve never faked an accent for any reason at all? Watch where you’re throwing those stones from that glass house kiddo.

The difference between Apu and most of the other stereotypes on the show is representation.

I hope that the Trouble with Apu gains way more traction because of this. I honestly think that Hari was still being too kind to those involved with the Simpsons. So, seeing this as their response is bullshit.

“They obviously new it was wrong early on...”

Lisa responds, “Something that started decades ago and was applauded and inoffensive is now politically incorrect. What can you do?”

Well, that’s about the most problematic way it could have handled things.

It’s also pretty shitty for them to use Lisa, who has always been a stand-in for the social justice-inclined, to complain about political correctness. It’d be like having a new Lord of the Rings where Frodo extols the virtue of holding on to earthly riches and power.

I do find this article confusing for the very reason you point out. There are good points that should be made and voices that should be amplified, but the uncritical first person and family accounts of what seems to be a fairly privileged position of whiteness really weaken her position to be taking a stance against…

I resent the fact that my little poor country in Central America, can declare elections as national holidays and are held always on sundays, provide free public transportation for the day, and offer free sandwiches and coffee in polling places. America needs to do better.

I’m guessing a portion of that money came from Cruz’s colleagues in the Senate— Democrats and Republicans.

Democratic Congressman Beto O’Rourke is running to unseat Ted Cruz in the Senate, and he’s cleaning the fuck up. In the last three months alone, O’Rourke has brought in $6.7 million, from 141,000 individual contributions, according to the campaign.

It also implies that she’s a control freak and probably can’t have someone else even choose an end table for her without having a meltdown.

It really means that she doesn’t even know the difference between good taste and her taste, so she thinks she can do better than a professional. Like the Trumps, she just tries to mimic what she thinks rich people do/wear/live in. And the society people she and the Trumps want to rub elbows with can spot a…

Carson was the worst. Not only did he throw his wife under the bus (which means he’ll do that to anyone), but she can have no say in anything, since she’s neither elected, confirmed by Senate, or a civil employee. This wasn’t a situation where he asked for her input, and then made his decision as Secretary. She did it…

LOL I was thinking the same thing- OH THAT MUST BE SO HARD FOR YOU, UBERING BACK AND FORTH!

Damn, didn’t realize Connery was that young. Still, I stand by Elba. One of the most BAMFs around, no disrespect to Boyega.
