Well, one problem with that is for a lot of red state/area culturally aggrieved voters $31,200 is actually a lot. “What?! I kill myself for $28,000 a year roofing, some guy flipping burgers is making more than me?”

You sound like you need a nap. How about this poll showing Warren losing to “generic Democrat”?

She’d make a great President, but she wouldn’t be elected; she epitomizes the urban liberal elite. Every nuance of her voice and her mannerisms broadcast that, and despite her strong commitment to working class issues the working class would not feel comfortable around her. Her mannerisms show that in a way that even…

“on the trumpet in 5th grade and it was real torture”

To head off the inevitable posts calling for Warren 2020:

Whatever happens with this situation, I don’t think Edward Albee is heading to cultural irrelevancy over it.

Legally, I think they absolutely can. PSLF is a government benefit (the standardized master promissory note language I’ve seen does not make it a contractual benefit).

Eh, her heroines aren’t particularly appealing, either.

“The idea that Jane is drawing from A Vindication of the Rights of Woman in Sense and Sensibility isn’t a new one.”

I’ve tried that and it never works. And it seems to irritate my fiancee.

Every once in a while Jezebel relapses to its original mean girl roots.

I found Nebula in this movie just amazingly hot. I can’t figure out whether that’s weird or not.

I thought this was crazy and inappropriate before but I just came back from Guardians of the Galaxy 2, and now I am more sympathetic to him. What an awesome movie.

I’ve been following this case for a while, and all I have to say is it is a very strange case.
