Isn’t it fun how rich people don’t commit crimes? They don’t go to jail, they don’t pay fines, they don’t plea guilty, they aren’t handcuffed, they don’t even pay their lawyer’s bills... they don’t go broke when they declare bankruptcy multiple times, and they don’t pay taxes, and they don’t get called thugs when they

Yep. It’s fucked the country over twice in the last 18 years and it looks like it’s only going to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

The Electoral College must be done away with. You know if a Democrat lost the popular vote but won the EC, Republicans would get rid of it in a flash. Plus, I hate “swing states.” Fuck that. No more “special states.” Direct vote and that’s it.

One of the things that’s so fascinating to me is that the original term, involuntary celibacy, was coined by a queer woman. And there are lots of folks (queer folks, folks with disabilities, fat people, etc) who do struggle to find love and sexual partners because we live in an oppressive and disgusting society, but

One of the things I find so challenging about men like this is that they think they’ve got it figured out, that they’re operating on a higher plane, but really, their intellectual development is so stunted by their entitlement and misplaced rage that they have the intellectual capacity of a four year old who’s been

What I find interesting is that this is the only area where he seems to prioritize “collective good” over “individual freedom”. In every other context, he says that if you need something (healthcare, a job, etc.) it’s on you to get it and it’s not society’s responsibility to guarantee that you have it. But when it

The guys feel totally justified in having high standards, and are mad that women have any.

If we’re going to be ruthlessly efficient about this like he wants, just develop a cultural norm where all the incels ship off to their own little island. Then they can’t kill any women. Problem solved.

So he’s basically saying these men have a “have sex with me or I’ll murder some people” take on life? And it’s somehow our responsibly to provide that sex in order to protect ourselves and our society from them? Ummmm, k.

What makes me angry about the entire “incel” thing - outside of the obvious entitlement and objectification of women - is that these assholes claiming that women are just picking high-status men are the same assholes who won’t date “beneath them.” It’s not that they CAN’T get laid. They just don’t want any woman who

It’s just enough to drive a modern person mad to listen to these incels from the internet area ensconced in their comfortable secure lives complaining about the fact that they’re discriminated against because they don’t have enough sex. It’s like, Jesus get a hobby. For Christ’s sake, you — you — ”

I want to see if this policy applies in New York City where you always need to buy something and punch in a code to use a bathroom that resembles a landfill. They are not going to want all the homeless people clogging up tables like the library. As for Starbucks, they need to hire more Black managers and have

I read a really compelling theory a while back about why evangelicals and other adults with imaginary friends support him. Basically, these people know that they themselves don’t live up to the bullshit they spew. They lie, cheat on significant others, and hate everyone who isn’t like them; so they actually identify

Yes, Trump just exposed them for who they really are

I wonder how his evangelical supporters feel about him going on Twitter rants when he should be in church praising the God he ignored for 70 years of his life?

Well, someone has to invoke Godwin’s Law so it might as well be me: this is a reasonable approximation of the tone, thematic overtones, and fidelity to grammar and spelling I’d expect if Hitler had had Twitter down in that bunker in spring 1945.

But don’t forget this:

After Sandy Hook, I lost all faith that it’s ever going to get better. The fucking fanatical second amendment nutjobs and right on the whole shrugged their collective shoulders and said, “Eh, I value guns more than human lives.”

As it happens, this week I got my American citizenship. I’ve been a permanent resident since 2003. The only thing that made me change my mind about actually getting citizenship was Trump’s fuckery. It became evident that it doesn’t matter how ‘close’ to citizenship you are - it’s a binary field. Citizen or not. 1 or
