Maher is my spirit animal.

“Is this America?”

Hogg is even saying she didn’t apology to that basketball player she insulted. Come on. This woman earned this.

Right? I could give no figs that this isn’t the worst thing she’s ever said. It’s the television pundit equivalent of convicting Al Capone on tax evasion, and I’m absolutely comfortable with that.

More than that, it’s the free flow of ideas: enough people thought “yeah, she SHOULDN’T have a tv show, and I’ll avoid enabling her in response to her behavior.” Small wonder that “people should act on their beliefs” is threatening to a fairly vapid tv Star.

Just to make it politically correct “they had romantic history” if you ask Bill. They didn’t date, they just fucked.

Maher empathized after his own advertising boycott and firing from his ABC News show Politically Incorrect in 2002. The argument:

this shit makes no sense to me. isn’t a “boycott” essentially the so called free hand of the market dictating what/who will be successful and who wont be? its the people making the choice to use/watch/buy or not use/watch/buy your garbage. its capitalism at its essence. and these crybabies cant handle the reality of…

I truly believe this is the root of all MRA bullshit—they cannot conceive that every single woman walking around on this planet has her own interior life, her own hopes and dreams, and is the hero of her own story. It’s the same thing that causes men & boys to call women “fake geek girls” or “fake gamer girls”…

One of the many things I loved so much about Alias Grace was the manner in which it unapologetically indicted the story’s “nice guys” as complicit in her abuse by showing so clearly how they got off on her narrative of endless trauma.

Quickest way to keep abortion safe and legal: let voters see their wives, daughters, and sisters go to jail for having an abortion.

Not if you’re in the energy business they haven’t. The DOE’s proposed coal and nuclear bailout, which the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission unanimously rejected, would have blown up the electricity market for about 40% of the population of the country.

“Get me the guy who threw the litter that made that Indian cry in that commercial.”

I’m not sure Rick Perry ever figured out much about governing a large state. But if by “do a job like this” you mean “engage in graft and corruption,” then yeah, I can get behind this theory.

tbh, Rick Perry’s glasses have done an admirable job of staying below the radar screen.
