Also enraged was his other brother Dirrell.

PBS makes some good shit, watched a ton of their stuff on on Netflix. It would be a real shame if a bunch of immoral greedy fucks were to defund it.

Even if the cost of living in Chicago isn’t quite at NY/LA/SF level unaffordable, the salaries displayed in that photo are impossibly low for people with 15 -39 years professional experience. They must all have to moonlight at other jobs to make ends meet.

Props to him for both graduating and being woke enough to be self-deprecating. The latter is sorely lacking in pro sports, in the long run it may even get him farther than his degree.

That’s mancode for “I’m too lazy to do the hard work of raising a kid and will leave that to my wife”.

This seems as though it would take longer than a quick 5-minute shower?

I never understood this line of reasoning. Party lines and values are generally consistent year after year, and different enough from each other that if you know what you believe in at all it should be pretty obvious who you’ll vote for. Undecided seems to mean that you don’t know what you stand for, you’re too dumb…

And that’s why “moderates” are absolutely as culpable for the current state of affairs as the left and the right. They’re so desperate to maintain their illusion that “both sides are the same” that they see the right’s fears that Obama would do things that they completely made up themselves and the left’s fears that…

I know people who claim to be ‘moderates’ generally lean more conservative. That’s not a stretch, and can be backed up with documented fact (voting records) if you actually want someone to shove that in your face. Of course, like a typical conservative, you’ll claim the sources are biased and part of some liberal…

But see you’re probably not even close to moderate. You’re probably 70/30 conservative...you just like hiding under the umbrella of the word ‘moderate’, so you can have your cake and eat it too.

Honestly, people like you are are the worst, because you’re afraid to actually admit who you are.

Doesn’t your second paragraph disprove your first?

I think this is pretty spot-on and is something I’ve been saying to folks for years now. It really hit home to me in the closing weeks of the 2012 election during the peak of the “unskew the polls” phenomenon. The rubes were eating this shit up as usual, but then it became obvious that plenty of actual power players…

I hate that I don’t know if either one of you is kidding.

you could argue his voters would benefit from these tax cuts, but I just don’t get it with Ryan’s district

Did Fagin really attempt to snub Walton, or was it more of an artful dodge?

This is why healthcare isnt a good model for private insurance, but we use it anyway. The problem with your analogy fitting healthcare isnt that we all pay for maternity care, its that we all drive Ferrarri’s, or at least require the medical industry to assume so. You get the same standard of care medically on your…

It’s amazing how this argument only applies to female-specific care. Somehow no one ever suggests that women shouldn’t have to pay for coverage that includes prostate exams and vasectomies.

I hope when he’s one away from catching up to Nixon they just start putting a little Nixon-in-a-Box on any Trump cover to keep him from getting there.

Gita, thank you for this--and particularly for taking the time to collect opinions from the broader fanbase.

I personally find what Jontron had to say during the “debate” (if such it can be called with a straight face) absolutely repugnant, on both a (personal) moral level, and as someone who is reasonably well-versed…
