I'm getting the distinct sense that Mac is only comfortable skewering the stodgy misogyny of old institutions because they're Scottish, and this would be a much less light-hearted and harmless cartoon if a Proper English Club were at issue. Am I being uncharitable?

So Garrison is opposed to Trump's attempts to remove the Automatic Minimum Tax, which would see him pay something like 5% taxes TOTAL on his income instead?

It's probably Liberty University, which is One Of The Good Ones for him (and also a good reason not to spell it out, as it sounds more impressive if you don't know it's the one that Jerry Falwell Jr. is president of.) Liberty University also teaches that young Earth creationism is a superior explanation of biodiversity compared to evolution. Its academic standards are, let's say, probably a little less than rigorous. Prism fucked around with this message at 06:24 on Mar 16, 2017 |

Looks like it's actually I.U., for Indiana University, and the survey is about four years old.

Probably because he was calling the press itself the opposition party, not Democrats. Also it's not a good gesture of uniting the nation or bipartisanship either way, which is something Trump pretended he was going to do bigly.

Or is Sturgeon herself particularly well-known for speaking with that kind of accent and deep frying chocolate bars? While it is playing on national stereotypes, I don't think it's golliwog level. It's probably closer to depicting a French leader in a beret with a baguette and wine going "hon hon I love cheese". Expect plenty of lovely "Scotland is a drunken moron" imagery as this story continues though!

 I'm guessing this is about how Native Americans youths interact with others differently depending on the social or cultural context, just like every other human being does? I don't know.
