Door? If his campaign is the Titanic, once it hits the iceberg he’ll be on the first and most luxurious lifeboat alone, with only his next nearest unindicted oarsman.

Reading A People’s History of the United States put that on my radar. I hadn’t given the idea any thought until a college course assigned this book. I was educated in a standard American public school during the Reagan and Clinton eras, complete with Pledge of Allegiance. The standard schoolbooks omit a lot of atrocities and smooth over the ugly reality.

Whatever legitimate criticisms you lay on it, Zinn’s takedown opened my worldview and intensified my pre-existing anti-authoritarian streak.

9/11 happened shortly after and by then I considered Bush an illegitimate president. I watched him wage an unjustified war, and with the whole of our bloody rampage across the globe that clicked neatly into place. “America #1” is a sick joke.

Agree with both above parent comments, but what can they hope to gain by starting to point out his meltdowns now? Do they think they can convince him to step down as well? To change his rhetoric?

This one’s not landing for me, maybe I’ve heard this before but I’m not sure what he’s implying with “San Francisco style”. Is that thin crust or deep dish? Does it come with mozzarella or anti-queer dogwhistle? I only spent an afternoon once in SF and I never had a chance to sample their “style” of liberal. Someone help me out here?

Avenger origin story confirmed

The company I work for has a decent professional culture that emphasizes teamwork without any weird gimmicks. But I don’t get paid to make friends with these people. If anything, the people that think they’re there to socialize usually put the work second and make things harder for the rest of the team.

There’s nothing wrong with sharing jokes and having fun at work. As long as you understand that there’s also value in keeping your personal life seperate.

He hasn’t, his response is purely based on the optics of this thing.

Such a weird thing to focus on. Maybe that’s why it doesn’t work.

World of Warcraft server. It was shortly after its initial launch. I don’t know how many of the myriad relationships that spawned on that server lasted, but we’ve been together for almost 20 years now. We haven’t played the game for a long time now, but we’ve survived all of life’s expansions so far.

This is it entirely, good people do good things, and they determine if they’re good people by how much they agree with them.

They have the whole thing backwards; normal people determine if someone is good by the morality of their behavior, and they can’t comprehend this.

Hey Donal, try pronouncing it this way:

“Madame President”

Many human organs have monetary value, as does plasma and other components, even if the source is less than ideal.

Weird, freakish, ghouls.

His supporters will require Olympic level mental gymnastics to dispel the unease they’re gonna get if they even hear about this. Backing down from a debate looks cowardly no matter what his lame excuse and they’ll feel the truth of that.

Their plan does not appear to involve democracy regardless of turnout or results. Of course he doesn’t care if they vote.

It’s lack of empathy and lack of personal exposure. They live in bubbles where they only associate with people who think and act like themselves. It’s a fertile ground for disconnection with reality, and it breeds this withholding of empathy for those who live outside the bubble.

Watching helplessly for 40 or 50 years while your parents’ generation destroys everything will do that

Fuck this guy. Throw him in double jail
