The same eye cannot both look up to heaven and down to earth.

I have no idea how stuff like this failed to connect with the rust belt voter.


ugh, my party is the loving worst. What odds does anyone want to take that less than 75% of this group voted in the election?

Okay, enough is enough.

Please forward samples of any foodstuffs whose nature as cookies is in dispute to me, and I will decide accordingly.

I may require numerous samples.

Only tasty disputed foods, please.

when you consider the best take, that making harambe jokes was because black people are like gorillas with silly names, perhaps... the wokest choice would have been to let the hell ape survive

what's the uranium part about

I remember there was one guy in ye olde Bernie Threade whose username was some metallic element or other, and he was super defensive about all the exciting industrial and scientific uses that element had, and he got really unironically mad if you made fun of him for it, but I don't think it was uranium

The question of whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable went all the way to the Supreme Court

The court rightly decided that while a tomato is a fruit for the purposes of trade it is a vegetable

I was in-eloquently pointing out in DnD that a lot of Bernie supporters were unironically linking to Breitbart (Clinton sold our Uranium to Russia!) throughout the primaries, and the absurdity of it made me less dismissive of horseshoe theory.

I would have preferred a cute corn cob tbh.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

“I wanted to bring some kind of humanity to her campaign, because I think humanity and love and humor tend to get lost when we’re in the heat of all of this,” says Celia Rowlson-Hall, 32, a New York-based choreographer who’s worked on HBO’s “Girls” and other TV shows and music videos. She and her Washington, D.C.-based friend, hiphop choreographer Crishon Landers, created the pantsuit dance, and Rowlson-Hall directed the video with her partner, Mia Lidofsky, an independent film producer. The couple met on the set of “Girls.”

Can somebody edit that "The Jews did this" gif to say "Lena Dunham did this"? TIA.

Hey if you guys haven't seen Green Room I would recommend it.

It's basically effete punks learning how to use violence to protect themselves from very "economically anxious" Trump supporters. A fitting movie.

There’s nothing like dance to convey enthusiasm and energy, so it’s a natural political tool. The fact that it’s rarely used to rally voters–and even more rarely used so well–is what makes this video feel so fresh.

Man, with that dance thing, the Onion isn't even parody anymore, they're just one step ahead of reality.

On the subject of cookies, I was at a meeting a few months back where someone had made cupcakes using brownie mix. The result was really tough and chewy, but still delicious. How the heck do you classify that?

I'll take a milder position that the dance thing probably didn't actually hurt the campaign, but that there was way too much focus on stuff like that and not enough on "hey, maybe do a little actual campaigning somewhere other than the ticket line for Hamilton".

I think if you're struggling economically, seeing 170 people dancing happily endorsing a candidate might turn you off of them.

It's like how people complain about food stamps and how recipients have it "so much better" than them and they don't have to work. It just reinforces that poo poo that their lives are so good they are literally dancing to keep it the same way while you suffer
