Fitting that she goes off on privileged assholes who have no idea what her life has been about, considering she was just recently on the other side of the table when Jessica Williams tried to explain her issues with being a black woman in the world.

Not-so-casual reminder that filicide isn’t an uncommon occurrence, and it happens so frequently to disabled people that each year we hold a Disability Day of Mourning to remember those disabled people who were killed by family members and/or caretakers.

I watched it and thought it was a pretty good movie - has some major tragedy, flawed characters and doesn’t take the easy way out. However, I didn’t learn about Affleck’s sketchiness until after the fact or I wouldn’t have bothered with it.

The DNC and DCCC’s only job is to get Dems elected. Their strategy of prioritizing “winnable” races has been an abject failure, and only made it easier for Republicans to focus their spending on the same races.

Calling people who like Bernie Sanders “bernie bros” is divisive and makes the problem worse. 

and becoming the tea party of the left is a problem...how? i remember in ‘10 when the tea party actually WON! something the DNC seems to have a problem doing. maybe getting the energized contingency of your party on board isn’t a bad thing.

First off, James Thompson is awesome, and even though I don’t agree with all his policy positions, he’s the kind of Democrat we need running nationwide.

It bears mentioning here that Kris was close to Nicole Brown Simpson which would explain Caitlyn’s assertion. Otherwise, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Smear? Guy defended OJ. I’m not too worried about his reputation (and no, dying does not absolve you of doing bad shit while alive).

Just to make it clear. The aircraft was not “overbooked”. It only became overbooked when four additional United employees showed up late and demanded seats.

Until one of them finds out that that was THEIR doctor, and how dare he reschedule them because he’s on “VACATION”, doesn’t he know that they had to rearrange THEIR schedules to make this appointment happen??

If they really did run an algorithm to come up with 4 randomly selected people and this guy, an actual fucking doctor, said I have patients to see then United could have run it again and gotten someone with relatively less obligations back home to get off the flight. I’ve never flown United but it’s stories like this…

Yeah, but Ivanka gets the “friends and family” discount.

That’s how I understood it too. An employee of the airline who apparently thought they were more important than paying customers and didn’t want to be inconvenienced. The guy had a really good reason to keep that flight, as a doctor it’s extremely important for him to be able to see his patients as planned. You’d…

This is one of the good Taylor Swift stories. She petitioned for the landmark status, which makes the house not only impossible to modify, but harder to sell. Too many classic BH homes have lately been torn down to build enormous monstrosities, destroying the legendary charm of the city. What Taylor did here is a…

I don’t know. But she was in favor of military action against Assad before (a point on which she and Obama disagreed), and she said this today:

I think it was about the long-term failure of the Dems and neo-liberalism. Voters fell for Trump’s lies because the Dems have been letting us down for a long time. I’m convinced that Bill helped lose us the election because of NAFTA and other things. But why anyone believed Trump is beyond me. Adolescent rebellion…

Yeah. Whenever people went on about the total impossibility of deporting all the undocumented people, I just said “They don’t actually want to deport that many people. What they want is to create a terrorized underclass who will work for even less money, never go to the police or authorities for crimes, and basically…

Charles and Camilla are selfish and cruel people. Camilla “approved” Diana because they thought she would be naive and easy to manipulate so they could continue their affair. Diana had no idea what she was getting into.

LOL @ “cereal giving”. He was a complete and total mess. And that captures how absurd his rants really were.
