Theory: the way that alt right folks have so thoroughly convinced themselves that Hillary is the actual devil puts Trump at a serious disadvantage. He can’t hit her hard enough because there isn’t as much to hit her on (and he probably blew most of his ammo last night) as they believe there is, so they are destined to

I dunno, I think it was more surprising that he admitted to not knowing THE MOST about NATO. I mean, we’re talking about a man who has said he knows more about ISIS than “the generals”.

You’d think by now, police men and women across the country would think to themselves “Hm, you know, someone just shot an unarmed black guy, and it looked real bad, maybe I should be careful before I shoot a black guy.” I’ve worked in a few jobs where one idiot made national news for something stupid they did at the

But Crooked Hillary though! Crooked Hillary! Crooked Hillary!

So, Hillary has already been pushing for parental leave, and Trump is working on making it look like it was his idea first. I know I just saw an episode of Parks and Rec where Bobby Newport did the same thing to Leslie. Is Trump taking campaign notes from the antagonists in Parks and Rec? It would make sense, because

Unless you’ve stopped to ask one, I could accuse you of being much more disingenuous there. Some of the more aggressive ones surely are being hateful, but not all of the behaviors being looked at here are outright aggressive. Lots of things that men do that women find (rightfully) horribly distasteful are done with a

Agreed. Which is why I’m totally in favor of these changes.

Catcalling was an unfortunate choice of example, but if you think every single man who has ever engaged in any of the behaviors being targeted by these laws is doing it solely for the purpose of oppression, I believe you’re mistaken.

Thanks for that first sentence, turns what could have been a useful bit of information into douchery. Sure is a useful disposition when you feel someone is ignorant of the facts.

Any derogatory behavior is unacceptable. If someone feels threatened and if the behavior escalates, that’s absolutely unacceptable and hateful. Should these behaviors be viewed as criminal and treated with maximum police response? Absolutely, because they are awful.

Right, that’s what makes it wrong. But your point “men wouldn’t harass someone they respected by whistling at them” I think goes a little off the rails, as there are instances of that behavior being positive, as in a committed relationship. I totally agree it’s not a good behavior, I’m just saying I think that “hate”,

Right, but just in the most literal sense, you aren’t describing hate. I feel like hate would require something like a conscious awareness that one is attempting to dominate, or at least an awareness of a negative perception of the object of the action. My only quibble is that the word “hate” seems specifically

Woah there. He’s just pointing out that the literal definition of hate is not an accurate description of some of the things being policed. I thought the same thing. You don’t catcall someone because you hate them (not that that makes it ok).

So a “well-respected” businessman is meeting interviewed by a “well-respected” doctor. This seems “legit".

A go-to when I need a smile.

The game detects Pokemon at a pretty good distance, something like 50 or 100 yards. You can “see” Pokemon anywhere on the properties on either side of the average suburban street while standing in the middle of the road. You also don’t need to look into anything, since you just tap them on the map on the phone at any

I feel like that Pokemon story could only be told by someone who has no idea how the game works. There is no need to go peeking into someone’s house for Pokemon. If someone’s doing that, maybe they aren’t actually playing Pokemon.

The work potluck is the bane of my existence. You can’t just not go, it’s at your job! And people bug you for a week before about what you’re going to bring, and everyone else has always picked the easy things (and there’s that one motherfucker who always takes plates and napkins, like that’s a goddamn thing). I

It’s really only 10? I was certain that’s how much time I’ve spend playing it in total...

Woah buddy. That take is so hot you might burn yourself.
