What Kendall is doing is surprisingly savage.

I really wish the Boy Scouts of America would get their shit together and start following the GSUSA’s lead when it comes to programs like this, and the programs they have for girls with incarcerated mothers and girls who are in jail themselves.

Nope. He’ll just tell them he had to say that to keep his harpy ex-wife from stealing his kids from him. And if it comes up in court, he’ll just say that it was performance art. And around and around we go.

So, I get that it’s not unusual for visiting heads of state to ride in the carriage, but is it unusual for them to insist on it? Also, you know, if Donald decides that it’s worth the risk, who am I to tell him otherwise?

I never understood the hate on this show due to people were conflating Lena Dunham with a character she created. I remember when 30 Rock came out, and a Slate critic said that Tina Fey hasn’t been single since the Clinton administration so therefore she wouldn’t know how to write dialogue for Liz Lemon.

It’s the “his own people” that’s most telling. At a subconscious, gut-belief level, Spicer doesn’t consider Jewish Germans and Austrians to be Germans and Austrians, i.e. Hitler’s people. He considers them wholly Other in a way that is analogous to Hitler’s own Othering of Jews, gays, Communists, dissenters, etc.

Couldn’t we just stop filling jails with people who commit low level crimes and rehabilitate them? And free up room for people who commit actually heinous crimes and just keep them there until they die? Even if the system were perfectly perfect and those up for execution are 100% guilty monsters with a full capacity…

I’m hoping we can keep up this level of disappointment and anger among people for the next 17 months so we can harness it for 2018 midterm elections!

I wonder if the article has it mixed up with Teddy Roosevelt, who believed in eugenics. Teddy Roosevelt wrote the following in a letter:

I think some people are confused because they grew up in houses where no one would be overly critical of the President and are afraid their children won’t respect institutions or authority if they lay out the inappropriatenes. I think that’s an over blown concern. My parents were very critical of presidents and I went…

Having spent 7 years working in a steakhouse, I can attest that there are exactly two kinds of adults who eat steak like this:

Over/under on number of comments in this thread being men humblebragging about how much they make their ladies orgasm and expressing disbelief that other men don’t?

umm no sorry didn’t you read the article all women like it all women like the same things getting a woman off is just like a video game up up down down ABAB down down up start

Wonder how many confederate flag wavers are telling Hillary supporters “you lost, get over it”?

Its amazing to watch a total collapse of your own government. Not only the endless scandal, conflicting stories and total distrust at top levels but the total refusal of some people to even acknowledge ANYTHING is wrong (Give him a chance!)

yeah but how else was Putin supposed to make a decision about all this? leaders need to be informed.

Next jackass who tells me Hillary was a traitor because she might not have been perfect about her emails gets ripped a new one.

Let’s be clear that the protests and letters and calls and demonstrations helped here. Judges are DEFINITELY aware of public opinion in cases like these.
