I’m still not a 100% certain Trump isn’t just some actor doing a bit.

Trump wants prison reform? Let’s show him by MAKING PRISONS WORSE THAN EVER! #Resistance

“What’s Ivanka Trump up to today and how can we get angry about it?”

The challenge of the left is concealing the fact they’re even more hateful than the bigots they rail against.

“I got it. Since we really don’t like her and she’s a woman, why don’t we swear at her with specific vulgar terms for women.” -professional comedy writer

Bad political humor is like writing humor in easy mode. As long as the audience really hates whomever the target is, you don’t even need to be slightly clever to get a laugh. You can just say “@#$% that guy!” and get a chuckle.

Which outcome — Samantha Bee keeping her job or being fired — leads to me having to hear less about her?

I don’t care if Samantha Bee keeps her show and spends the rest of her life making smug liberals more smug. I just want partisans to stop pretending they care about anything — feminism, racism, basic decency — outside of partisanship.

I just want to scream hate at everyone outside my tribe and get praised for it. Is that too much to ask?

The left and right need to stop rallying behind hateful people. There are no right people to hate.

I’m so tired of the “this is the bad angry, hateful person and this is the good angry, hateful person” arguments.

I just want to be praised as brave for yelling hateful things at the people my peers all hate.

I wasn’t going to bother to see Solo in the theater, but word of mouth has now made we want to. Looking at the box office, though, it’s not going to be there long.

It’s just like with forgiveness: You have to pardon yourself before you pardon others.

The problem with marriage is that it’s a religious ceremony on which the state has placed legal significance. There’s no happy ending with that configuration. There was conflict because of that before gay marriage and there will continue to be more in the future.

My 5yo asked today, “Why do the people who say they’re against bigots sound so much more hateful than the people they accuse of being bigots?”
And I said, “Don’t be so precocious or no one will believe these conversations actually happened.”

If the Supreme Court decision had gone the other way, there probably would have been a mass movement to pass some sort of Amendment that protects religious freedom.

Scholars now agree that Jesus shouldn’t have said anything when asked about marriage so as to avoid saying anything divisive.

I just want to use government to bully powerless people who disagree with me and be seen as a hero.

When you’re a kid, you think you can do anything. But at some point in your life you have to admit to yourself you’re never going to learn how to fold a shirt.

I thought the funniest joke in Arrested Development season 5 was Lucille reacting to Trump talking about building a wall. It’s hard to do Trump jokes that aren’t tiresome (see latest season of Kimmy Schmidt) but they nailed it.

One may to drastically improve The Last Jedi is to make Holdo more like Hordor in that she only says her name.
“Admiral, do you even have a plan to escape the First Order fleet?”
“Holdo!”

Someone has to have actually killed someone for me to consider saying something bad at the time of their death. So like Osama bin Laden. Or Ted Kennedy.

One thing that convinces me someone’s politics must be right is them celebrating someone dying of cancer. No Nazi would feel that strongly about something—only someone with smart, good politics would be that constantly bitter and cruel.

The WWDC was fun. Sometimes you just need to loosen up and talk low-level programming details.
My big conclusion from the talks was that machine learning is neato and I need to find some use for it.

The left’s new strategy is to starve out bigots by monopolizing most of the hatred.

Canada is trying to destroy our country with its tariffs on dairy. And it’s working. The only thing left is for us to surrender unconditionally and beg for mercy. Does anyone speak Canadian?

I didn’t realize how much watching lots of scifi allowed me to easily accept the rules of time travel in the 3rd Harry Potter. It made my daughter cry, though.
tears in her eyes
“But who threw the rock the first time before Hermione time traveled?!”

Our habit, BTW, has been to read the first chapter or two of the book, watch the movie, and then finish the book. I don’t think she’s quite ready for the 4th Harry Potter where the assurance during scary parts of “Don’t worry; everything turns okay in the end,” is no longer true.

What percentage of the population has seen a single thing nominated at the Tony awards?

Just a reminder: The question isn’t whether someone should “bake a cake,” the philosophical question is are you willing to use violent force if they won’t.

The question constantly seems to be “How do we defeat the other side?” when what is supposed to be America’s strength is learning to live together in peace despite disagreements.

Remember pre-Trump’s election when we all thought we understood politics? Those were simpler times.

Donald Trump seems like the sort of person that would go to IHOP and order a burger.

I don’t really understand when the left is against coddling up to murderous dictators.
Me, I don’t think I could do diplomacy. I have too much of a sense of right and wrong to avoid strangling people who really deserve a strangling when they get in strangling range.

I’ve decided to be more dishonest, but in a way that will increase my following and make me politically relevant.

DVDs are the worst when you just want to watch the friggin’ movie. I don’t need to know the commentary doesn’t necessarily reflect the studios views if I’m not listening to the commentary! And I definitely don’t you need to take time repeating that message in French!

How good is Chick-fil-A? They make more money per store than any other fast food chain while being open only six days a week and being under constant boycotts.
