On the other hand, obstructionist Republicans are a lot less likely to humor the Democratic fetish for a ‘grand bargain’ budget that slashes important services.

I think it’s like Barney Frank said of the Log Cabin Republicans: it’s economic reasons. When you come from a privileged background, that wealth-privilege usually insulates you from the same precarity that normal people suffer so you care most about maintaining that privilege— it’s also why rich people like Susan…

Yeah, she said some gross stuff about Tig Notaro and it turned out that she’s THAT straight person who uses her queer friends and co-workers as self-aggrandizing props, so she’s sort of lost her luster. 

Hololens is probably going to go the way of Google Glass, man.

Also, READ AMANDA LOTZ READ AMANDA LOTZ READ AMANDA LOTZ if you care about TV.

Well, if we’re being totally honest, Gilmore Girls was a pre-peak TV show that was part of the wrongfully forgotten (woman led) buildup to peak TV.

How ‘bout “I’m doing this because we failed to relaunch Top Gear, which should have been Sue Perkins’ job”?

I keep mentally comparing it to that Australian online support group that got profiled on This American Life. Like, his sexuality is monstrous and that must be really hard to deal with, and we don’t know how to deal with it as a society.

A death in the family’s always a kick in the face.

I’m separated from my gifs but let’s pretend I posted tne one where her coffee cup has been photoshopped to read ‘Male Tears’

Can I give you more than one star? Is that a thing Kinja can do?

Gonna go ahead and say it: Thank God there’s more smutty stuff aimed at and featuring women. There is nothing more infuriating than a grown woman pretending Yaoi is progressive.

It’s inevitable. Any declaration of open season on vulnerable bodies is of course going to include women.

“Yes, that’s poop.”

I’ve been reading Analogue: A Hate Story and Hate Plus. They’re not books though, they’re games- well- sort of.

It is always important to remember that this show is a ripoff of Carpool with Robert Llwelyn, because Seinfeld is a hack.

Basically she’s an establishment democrat in most respects. She admits she’s a liar, but that cuts both ways because she’s also privately more eager to implement single-payer despite her campaign dismissing it.

No, she was trying to fight what was in the speeches because they contain a lot of ugly comments about her reliance on wall street (which she attributes to long election cycles) and her pro-wall street policies and tendencies.

Check out the concourse article on it. She admits that her ‘public’ position is bullshit, then goes on to say that Wall Street should help the White House spin banking crises, that industry figures should take the lead on regulation of the banks, etc. She also freely admits that there’s a huge difference between what…

Sure it’s got something to do with the VP. The VP slot is one of the few high profile jobs the Democrats have left. Yeah, it’s very rare for the VP to later become President, but it’s not like they’ve got a lot of room to lift up potential 2024 candidates through state level politics or Congress.
