Living in the future just isn’t worth it most of the time.

The now is fine.

Oh please does he look like a date rape kinda guy?

I mean . . .

It’s just . . .

Yeah, okay. Gross.

Seconded.

everyone under 40: Why send arms to Israel?

everyone over 40: 😐

Le blep, c’est magnifique

Well that’s just the mark of a serious and thoughtful leadership.

I’ll take your entire stock!

What the what?

“sell your browser, that’ll limit your search monopoly”

. . . HAH?

I give you the pigs, weasels, skunks, and slime mold, and Beavis. Dunno about Butthead but i’ll take it under advisement.

Yyyyyyyyyes.

Well she needs to get off the Xitter then.

Hah? Ahh?? Haheenhhh! Yyyeah. Nailed it.

Uh. Yeah, I guess that is one takeaway from that.

The entire war on drugs was to limit liberal political power from day 1. The racism was only part of it.

And now it’s . . . . whatever the fuck this is.

His tumblr blog is righteous. I’m not down with the Wes-bashing around here. That’s the sort of dishonorable dreck some of you p’tahk enjoy.

*annoyed harrumph*

In the post, which features a photo of McBride in a bathroom, McBride says “Here, I am using a women’s restroom in North Carolina that I’m technically barred from being in.”

That wasn’t in the link, and it seems kind of weird - where did she post it? (If it was Xitter i have it blocked, but i still expected the text to be in the article and I didn’t see it)

Rhetoric and policy should be connected in a serious government leadership.

Yeah but unserious just won everything. Is serious angry?

Oh, there’s plenty of room for anger currently. Sure. And I’d prefer we direct it to the corporate news media myself, but the point is that it’s only going to go so far before it has to change to not-angry. And be what it really is.

If you’re saying you’ve got a movement whose entire purpose is to kill nazis, I’m onboard, right - but after we kill most of the big nazis and the rest have scurried off under their rocks, then what? Kill nazi sympathizers? Okay - I might peace out at that moment, but once that’s done then what? Start a record company?

I’m just saying - anger is a useful device but it’s no be-all and end-all as the few remaining halfway-human members of the republiQan party are surely considering now that they’ve won everything with lies and nazis again.

At some point you have to run the boring meetings and pass the cost-cutting measures and deny someone their dream pony because it won’t fit in this year’s omnibus bill.

I mean, that’s easy. It just doesn’t have any politics in it.

Edit: overt politics

Frank Zappa said “Anger is fuel” so yeah use it if you got it. Just saying that movements of anger have to at some point become peaceful or they just end up being the new dictators, upended by the new-new movement of anger.

It’s not like a new story, it’s just new in our highly mediated world.

An excellent point. It was kind of a Simpsons/MontyPythonesque image.
