Tumblr was right about one thing: all their faves are problematic.

If he's actually a criminal, I would certainly hope that turning himself in voluntarily wasn't the only way to bring him to justice.

I would object to your assertion that all far-left folks are antisemitic, but I admit I've been out of touch with the discourse in that space ever since Tumblr imploded, so maybe you know something I don't. I will say that it doesn't surprise me to learn they'd have trouble wrapping their heads...

For some reason Mormons have a tendency to give their kids odd made-up names, especially ones that are combinations of two other names. "Renesmee" from the Twilight books is a famous example.

Lemme guess, his family are Mormons?

They're just determined to shoehorn Chris Pratt into everything now, aren't they. He's like the Nolan North of movies. Coincidentally, Nolan North could probably do an excellent Garfield voice. I remember hearing an interview with him once, just talking in his normal voice, and once or twice he...

OK, I know that it's possible for rich people to hire assassins, but assassins who can sneak into a prison, murder one of the inmates, and sneak out again? ...Actually he probably didn't even need to sneak anywhere. Just walk up to the front desk, declare his intentions openly, and show them...

OK, point to McCarthy, that did make me laugh.

No, all of his base are total morons and will never be bothered by this. If they weren't morons they wouldn't be supporting him. You just don't know your neighbors as well as you think.

And enact a military coup against anyone who tries to stop him. Which 90% of the jarheads will gladly go along with because they're already brainwashed to respect the biggest bully in the room.

So, my understanding of the situation in Israel is that it's basically this: Units not to scale.

Probably the same reason there are still minorities in red states; moving isn't as easy as just thinking about it, and the internet hasn't yet completely replaced in-person relationships with people you might still care about.

It's exactly the same thing that happened during the Civil War. For all their talk of "states' rights", the very first thing they did after seceding was make it explicitly unconstitutional for any Confederate state to outlaw slavery.

Huh. And here I thought Pixar's obligation to drop what they're doing and make a sequel whenever Disney wants them to only extended to their first seven films. I guess it was more that Disney didn't consider anything they'd made since then a "marketable brand" until now.

Japan used to be more progressive than the West. Remember the same-sex couple on Sailor Moon (I think that's what show it was) that got turned into siblings in the English dub?

Honestly? I want to see the House Democrats respond in kind. All it'd take is one Republican who's sick of her jive.

So if abortion isn't what keeps Republicans in office, what is? Just a few years ago we treated abortion bans as Republicans' carrot on a stick. But now it seems a lot of people would gladly vote for Republicans despite their hardline position on abortion, not because of it. So what's the real...

What were they being used for, and why? Is this one of those "tech-bros have bizarre ideas about health" things, like Steve Jobs living off nothing but fruit or the head of Oracle recommending bogus treatments for COVID?

That's not a nice thing to say; we've got as much right to be here as you do. 😛

I admittedly didn't pay any real attention to the 2020 campaigns, so I have to ask the rest of you: Did he do that then? Somehow Biden strikes me as too much of a cuddly grandpa to get that confrontational. Like the sort of person too polite to use the "F" word even if his opponent goosestepped...
