Oh, we’re already heading in the direction. The northeast will split off into one country, everything west of the Rockies will become another country and everything in the middle will become a third. Illinois will shed Chicago into either the northeast nation or Canada.

I was visiting my wife’s friends who moved to Philly. the guys has the gas grill out and had, for some reason, covered the grates with aluminum foil and were making chicken parts. At some point later, they walked off to do other things and the wife decided to throw some more stuff on the grill. While I’m standing…

Definitely. Even on Kinja you see people eating their own for not being “woke” enough. For using the wrong vocabulary to defend the same issues. For not being strong enough in a statement.
Nitpicking infighting that’s only purpose is to make one person feel superior to another in their wokeness.

The current system is too fucked up for compromise to achieve any positive results, especially compromise with the most prominent symptom of the current dysfunctional nature of American politics. A ground up restructuring is needed to heal the divide and make positive change.

The US has always had two dominant parties, but it also had a political spectrum with many politicians having a wide variety of views on different issues.

Because your side isn’t really on your side? Do you really think all those big (D) politicians are actually championing the causes of progressivism?

Ladies, please avoid this movie and watch the trilogy of “The Submission of Emma Marx” on Showtime instead. It’s a ripoff of 50 Shades that actually has better characters and better kink scenes.

I literally face-palmed at least twice during that movie. When the sad skullery maid suddenly breaks into a rendition of Lynol Richie’s Hello.....

The Bush family and their Saudi friends were really behind the Bowling Green Massacre. And the Trolls movie.

Looks like this might be what you benefited from:

Oh, you mean like this: How The Liberal Welfare State Destroyed Black America

Knock. knock.

What? No shoutout to Lyndon Johnson for pushing through the Civil Rights legislation?

There’s a model of Audi that has a solar panel on the roof and uses that power to run a circulation fan to keep the inside of the car the same temperature as the outside. It’s done just for the comfort of people returning to the car.

From an article buried inside the GoFundMe page linked from the article linked above:

Michael Harriot is Hamilton Nolan’s brother from another mother.

Well, if Trump was being accurate he would have said “The 12 million victims of the Holocaust including 6 million Jews and 6 millions others, which included gays, gypsies, the disabled, the mentally handicapped, political dissidents and anyone who tried to help the Jews.”
