  1. That’s happened before.
  2. And in the statehouse.
  3. Tolerance of racism makes you a complicit racist.
  4. “And the king will answer them, ‘Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it to me.’” They should be thankful that St. Peter isn’t going to be waiting for them when they get to the other side.
  5. “Holy crackers & cheese.”
  6. Mike Lee, come on down! (I assume.)
  7. To you. They’re hiding from you the darkness inside their hearts. They don’t see you as the other so you don’t see it.
  8. “‘Pam’ — I don’t know the woman but she sounds quite fetching:”
  9. Yeah. “I’m gay.” That’s what Pete said that they don’t like.
  10. Coworker 2 is also a white supremacist but is too much of a coward to admit it to herself. She doesn’t think she’s a racist, she just thinks it’s true that black and brown people are more likely to be criminals than white people.
  11. That’s a blessing in itself.
  12. Mine beeps every minute after the cook cycle is finished. That’s useful information. I reheat food in stages gradually, leaving a two minute break between cycles to allow temps to normalize, and the beeps make it convenient. If you don’t like it then hit the clear/off button after the cook cycle is finished (or open the door to check the temp) and it won’t beep at you.
  13. This one really annoys me. It’s so stupid.
  14. Do Moscow and I’ll be impressed. Assuming the Israelis hadn’t crippled their air defenses first and had already been running sorties unopposed for days/weeks.
  15. That’s why it’s not impressive.
  16. Good analogy because the Trump administration is a reality tv production as authentic as any plastic product coming out of Hollywood.
  17. It would’ve been more impressive if Iran’s air defenses hadn’t already been totally incapacitated. This was a turkey shoot — the most advanced military in the world doing what it’s expected to do against an inferior, neutered opponent. It was Kramer dominating the dojo.
  18. Oh really? How many private companies did Hitler nationalize? How about Mussolini? Here’s an easier one. What about Putin? You mean socialist (the Marxist kind), not fascist.
  19. The thing is is that they’re wholly unqualified for the jobs they hold so they dare not risk their positions by contradicting Dear Leader. Wtf else are they going to do that would pay as well if they left a cabinet job for which they’re horribly unqualified? That’s exactly why they were appointed in the first place.
  20. One of the greatest foreign policy blunders of all time. Or at least it was the start of a chain of events that constituted one. It was the principle motivator. Declaring a national home for the Jewish people didn’t have to mean the creation of a Jewish state but their were advocates and influencers involved who always had that goal and that was the result. So one people granted a second people the land of a third people and created a situation where there will never be peace under the status quo. Also, since the establishment of the state of Israel, they’ve received more aid from the U.S. in the form of weapons and cash than any other country so it’s pretty hard to argue that we aren’t a big reason they’ve had the success fighting their enemies that they’ve had. That’s been on full display in Gaza and Iran just recently but it’s been official U.S. policy for decades.
  21. Can we see what an album of bullfighting tunes looks like? I don’t know about 15, but I’d listen to one. And speaking of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, my parents had their greatest hits album so I’m familiar with this:
