Interesting, I found a Trump donor I know well. Also interesting, I’ve donated a couple of times recently to a current Dem Presidential candidate, and I couldn’t find my name listed under that campaign’s donors. Nor anyone in my zip code (not surprising, I’m in a red state).

I believe he’s confusing one mass-shooting-adjacent politician with another. In El Paso, Rep. Veronica Escobar said that when she was in the hospital visiting victims, some of them literally without prompting grabbed her arm and asked her to not let ‘him’ come here. I heard her say this last night on MSNBC (either RMS…

He says shit all the time that reveals how he *actually* feels about things, this is just one more example that makes it embarrassingly evident that his performative progressivism is just him putting a finger in the wind and parroting what he thinks the youngs need to hear to accept him.

Yeah, I had to read that twice to see if he was being sarcastic b/c how could that baffle someone? SMH. 

Wow, cool trolling, dickhead. 

Completely agree that we desperately need alternative higher education options. My college years were the worst years of my life due to the stress of trying to pay for it (and the impact the heavy work schedule took on trying to actually study/attend class). 

I worked in academia a few years ago, and I’m reading this article imagining the students at that somewhat prestigious, somewhat large university - one I also attended not THAT long ago (I’m in my 30s). I was struck in how much things have changed since my student years. My uni is even building one of these mini…

But having conveniences on campus is a selling point, and all universities are in competition to attract better affluent students, faculty, and the best athletes they can get. When an 18 year old takes campus tours, they notice all the Starbucks and Pink Walrus and Chipotle just steps from the dorms. Parents notice…

When he’s right he’s right. 

Welp, you thoroughly answered that! Interesting. 

Came here to say the same. People think the pink/red liquid beneath their rare burger or steak is ‘blood’ but it’s most definitely not. But it’s such a widespread misconception that this is how people talk about it (that the soy leghemoglobin is there to replicate ‘blood’).  Even when writing articles about it :-/

Huh, I find Biden very likable as a person, but I thought he came across as doddering and out-of-touch. But very bronzed.

I second that emotion.

I never, ever go to Burger King, but I’ll definitely be going just to try this! 

I’ve had it and it’s fine but it’s better to mix the salsa with sour cream. 

Everyone knows Reagan is the most loved Republican icon, so, when Dems try to pander to the right, they pull out a feel-good Reagan quote to try to show their willingness to recognize some ‘good’ on the right. Nevermind the reality of Reagan’s ugliness, they know he’s mostly remembered as the Disney caricature of…

Yeah, it’s similar to how we tend to put loved ones on a pedestal after they die. People somehow remember Reagan as a cross between Mr. Rogers and John Wayne. Like where is this characterization of him coming from?

Weird, I’m a Midwesterner and I’ve always been told I have a standard-issue Mid-Atlantic accent, which is sometimes referred to as ‘a newscaster accent’ b/c it lacks any regional affect. I do not sound anything like Williamson nor Hepburn, so different people must use the term ‘Mid-Atlantic’ differently when referring…

But doesn’t it sound halting and affected? It sounds like she’s trying on a voice and keeps forgetting which one she’s doing. 

Well shit, I think you just described me in the future lol!
