PUT MORE COVERING OVER THE THINGS I LET MY PRESIDENT GRAB, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!

At this point, perhaps the strongest argument for a Democratic President is that a Democrat is the only person everyone in America can agree might be corrupt.

“It includes the knob.”

“And it explains why dialogue and debate about controversial, interesting ideas are becoming more difficult in our divisive age. “

Offhand, I’d call this the most unintentionally honest statement Chris Jacobs has ever uttered. On the one hand, I have absolutely no doubt that Chris Jacobs detests the very idea of privilege, let alone its prevalent usage in our society.

I’m not going to condemn you for your views, because I do partly agree. What he did was heinous. But I would also note that Michael Vick is the model for how to apologize, express contrition and do your best to atone for your actions.

Exactly; in psychology, this is known as splitting. It’s common in young children, precisely because they lack the sophisticated mental apparatus in order to integrate multi-faceted, complex assessments of other human beings as having both positive and negative qualities.

Turns out, there’s quite a lucrative market for enabling privileged white people. Sure, there’s nothing actually in the Bible that says what everyone else calls privilege is actually God’s favor, and that because they have God’s favor, any damn fool notion that pops into their noggin is divine. But what the Bible says…

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’d gladly take the woman who dances like nobody’s looking over the guy who gropes like nobody cares six days a week, and twice on Sunday.

The thing with good science fiction and good fiction in general is that there are rules and logic in their made up stuff

All I remember from Nemesis was Picard violating the Prime Directive for no real reason with his dune buggy. I get Patrick Stewart wanted to have more action scenes but they could have at least worked it into the narrative better.

IANAD, but it was my distinct understanding that drowning and strangulation are two of the most difficult, involved ways of killing another human being, precisely because you’re fighting another human’s strongest autonomic nervous system response: to inhale and exhale. If they pass out, and you let them out of the…
