Masha Gessen had a good point somewhere recently about all the continued hysteria over the election and the overblown expectations people have of the Russia investigation basically being a way for people to distract themselves from their distress over Trump being president.

I think she’s right. I’m guessing that if…

OR IS HE?!?!?!?!?!?!?

She really is the perfect surrogate for the Democratic Party. Can’t send a clear message to save her life. Corrupt as fuck but always pointing fingers at others. Shoots self and party in the foot like it’s going out of style.

I’ve accepted that this is all happening and at this point I’m just interested to see how far it goes.
The Russian oligarchy is basically EXACTLY what America’s rich fucks want from a society. Our right wing’s Putin hero worship makes total sense to me, and now that I no longer find their complete lack of scruples…

They also changed that garlic sauce to some nightmare of melted plastic. Could also just be that my memory of garlic sauce from childhood was distorted over the 10 or so years between eating Papa John’s pizza for the last time. Or that in that 10-year span I was actually eating good food made from real ingredients.

Maybe as a society we shouldn’t tolerate a system in which people’s entire lives are thrown into a tailspin if their employer makes bad decisions that lead to layoffs. Just a thought.

If I was in marketing/PR at Papa John’s, I would have quit rather than making that statement because yeah, Papa has a metaphorical white hood over his heart. Unfortunately, it seems that these days unless someone says “yes, I am a racist,” they aren’t actually a racist in the eyes of the general public.

That they are allowed to do this is absolutely a problem having to do with the wider lack of regulation and the wild ways corporate entities are allowed to pursue profit in our society. I can appreciate how very emotional you are on this topic and that you must be frustrated by the appearance of a more measured…

I have been saying this since the Bill Cosby stuff (well, before, but especially since then):

Again, they’re the symptom, not the disease. I don’t buy their crap, I don’t watch their show, I don’t believe their pro-capitalist message and I don’t self-apply the patriarchal beauty standards they thrive on. Why is that?

My guess is that it’s because I have critical thinking skills and enough cultural knowledge to…

Mark Twain would disagree.

“The agreement includes forfeiting one’s right to sue DiCaprio for harassment and infliction of emotional distress.” How is that allowed? I understand how it happens—people will say “I’m not singing this” and they will say “then you don’t get the job” and so people sign it without question—but how is it not something…

Didn’t Tracie have her own set of harassment and abuse-of-power issues as well? Isn’t that why she’s no longer the EIC of Broadly?

I think they’re all pretty much shallow and that Kendall and Kylie are spoiled, but they really do seem to have a healthy and loving family relationship. They’re not without their collective problems. Kim seems to be the most aware and sensitive in terms of social justice issues, and that isn’t saying much, but I…

I am going to play this for my stylist. Not the whole thing. But that’s the hair I’ve been trying to get her to give me for months.

Rude!

Yup. She genuinely seems like a dignified and loving person. I bet she’s a very loyal friend. I’m not super into how shallow that family is but that’s about the worst thing I can say about them. Their fame is a symptom of our culture’s decadence and vapidity, not the disease.

It was VERY DELIBERATELY CHOSEN =D

I’m very glad that you had a good experience reporting a violent crime to the police and I’m sorry that the assault happened to you in the first place.

Cool tell me more about how much money you have it’s really interesting
