Am I the only one that read the words in the bottom as: LIVE shit. More appropriate the way I read it.

Dear GOP, this is not that important of a base to go courting. One, they are going to vote for you no matter what in the end. Two, they are only 20% (at most) of the electorate. The largest plurality is pro-reproductive freedom (50%), the second largest is no late term abortions and bullshit limitations on under-18…

I tend not to root for people who put their arms around and pose for smiling photos with genocidal madmen. Discrimination against Muslims=wrong. Posing for photos with people who ordered mass rape as a weapon of war=FAR WORSE. I hope he doesn’t get a cent.

I had fortunately been oblivious to these countdown clocks until a friend showed me one last week for a young actress. I won’t link or name her because fuck that. I know there is always fucked up shit out there, but CNN think pieces on whether these clocks are fair or gross....should not occur. The answer is fucking…

Also victims of terrorism are accepted as martyrs in Turkey.

This statement should be copy-pasted 100 times in the inevitable times it will be used in the upcoming election.

If dude comes out in favor of unionizing players, he’s my vote for coach of the decade.

I thought that it was decided that based upon the relation of his statements to reality, all Ben Carson stories would be on io9 from now on.

Where do you read that it is “based on the movies?” I don’t doubt it and will join the chorus of boos definitely, but I just didn’t see it in this article.

1. They aren’t a working class movement either. Identity politics works differently.

You see the word “common” in your definition, right? Racial minorities, are by definition, not common. Otherwise they wouldn’t be racial minorities, that’s kinda the deal. I feel like if you didn’t figure that out by wikipedia-ing this, then my breaking it down for you isn’t going to help much either.

Ummmmmmmm...racial identity politics for minorities cannot be populism by definition. This is kinda basic.

Why protest politicians who won’t change their minds on the issue? The same reason that the anti-war activitists protested the democrats in 1968 but didn’t really care about Nixon is the reason this makes perfect sense.

Went to the parade two years ago...It was awesome and there were a ton of kids there.

Shocked, shocked. That a movie based on a documentary about a relatively obscure election didn’t grab audiences. Having said that: Go watch the documentary, it is awesome (and fuck James Carville).

The seven year rule is famous, but I’m wondering how that applies to exclusivity parts of contracts that seem to be the problem here.

But here’s the question, if she knows this, how can she ever send anyone to prison? If she admits it and then says: “OK, not going to contribute to violent mass incarceration anymore” that would be one thing. Admitting it in the morning and then sending someone to prison to be raped in the evening is....fucked up.…

You know they sell them in the gift shop right? Fucking cheapskate (pun intended)...go buy your daughter a puck.

Went to and taught in inner city high schools. The shocking to me is not the students, but the teacher. If this would have happened to any of my friends in high school, the teachers would have said something. I saw police harassing students, just light harassing, and teachers would come and diffuse the situation. When…

Maybe restrain was too strong a word. The definition I was going for was: Safely stop two students from being able to hit each other. The definition I was not going for was: immobilize.
