Just to add a little for clarification, I firmly believe that ‘mutual abuse’, or at least ‘mutual toxicity’ in relationships is very much a thing and that they were both guilty. It is gross to see the misogyny directed her way but also interesting to see the hypocrisy of the ‘always believe the victim’ champions…

It’s really funny, super weird, and has a hilarious episode centered on Kristen Wiig at the start of a pandem-... I’m just going to post it:

Happy Saturday All. Here's some sweetness.

...yet they’ll still go to court and testify under oath that their training gives them superhuman powers of perception, memory, and judgment. And not buying it can get people removed from the jury.

You ever see a bunch of cops standing around not doing anything except directing their authority at the most powerless people they can reach?

Exactly. The vast majority of cops have never shot anyone, despite what it seems like in the news. They seem to be terrible judges of when to use lethal force. A police department is lucky is they have one good sharp shooter on staff. And even then, they were probably trained by a previous career in the military, not…

There is not a better argument for defunding or abolishing the police than this video (not to mention what happened at Parkland). What are police for, as presently constituted with guns, bulletproof vests, any amount of offensive and defensive military gear, and authority to use all of that at the drop of a hot, if…

If kids have to regularly do armed shooter drills in school, the cops should as well. We all remember the cop at Parkland who drove away from the shooting in his golf cart.

As Christopher Titus pointed out today, this IS political. The refusal to do anything is political. The decision to push policies that make shootings more likely is political. This is all political.

This kid couldn’t have legally purchased these weapons before Abbott changed the gun laws in Texas, so He is entirely to blame for this shooting. 

McLaughlin called O’Rourke a “sick son of a bitch” for trying to “politicize” the shooting[.]

And this is why I drive around with a “Beto for Texas” sticker on my car in Dallas and routinely get the bird from my “neighbors.” My southern politeness hates incivility, but damn, he is right and I am glad he has the guts to speak out to the horrible humans sitting on that stage. My fellow Texans just chose that…

At least now I understand Abbott’s anti choice stance on abortion. If you’re gonna let this many kids get slaughtered on the reg, you really need a plan for backfilling their positions.

These are the motherfuckers responsible for this...

Is this a sly dig because the dude can’t walk? ‘Uplifting’?  If so, well played.

The takeaway from all of this is that we need to get Tucker Carlson and Fox hosts talking about Republican coke fueled sex orgies. Maybe then the snake that is the GOP will take some real bites out of its tail.

Well coke and sex orgies involving *them*

I know nothing about who he lost the primary to, but somehow I doubt it will be an improvement.

The GOP: We endorse spreading unfounded rumors about Jewish space lasers setting homes ablaze. But rumors about coke and sex orgies is where we draw the line.

I started detoxing off stuff similar to what Hawkins was taking (lockdown stress made me get back into bad habits) and considering how hard he was pushing himself physically during every show, I can totally see how his heart would just cave in after a certain point.

THC alone pushes your heart rate more than we give…
