He's mentally ill and probably thinks medication is a plot by mole people to steal his teeth. Don't try to glean any consistency from his work. Dude has been flip-flopping on Trump for two years now.

Just because Liquor's dead, doesn't mean you can just roll this bitch all over town with "The Freedoms."
The thing that bothers me the most about the Dees cartoon is that he's looking at an aircraft carrier, yet Trump is showing in the binocular lenses. Maybe the lenses are embossed with Trump's face or something.

It's Kim Jung Un's birthday. For presents, he got a big military parade full of pointy missiles (his favorites!), a Chicago Bulls vest, and a Trump-brand pair of novelty goggles that show a stereoscopic image of a US Navy carrier group. Thanks Santa! It was a good birthday for the Dear Leader of Best Korea.

A generation ago UC Berkeley was considered the home of the free speech movement. Now students and imported thugs riot there to silence speakers they don’t like.

Last week the university cancelled a speech by Ann Coulter because it claimed it assure her safety. She vowed to speak anyway but backed out yesterday.

Barack is back. He will give a speech to the Wall Street firm Cantor Fitzgerald in September. HIs fee? $400,000. The same amount as his annual salary as president.

President Obama had harsh words (at no extra charge) for Wall Street bankers in 2009. He called them “fat cats who don’t get it.”

Elizabeth Warren isn’t happy.

Chip Bok posted:

President Trump cracked down on sanctuary cities. He ordered restrictions on federal funding to cities that refuse to turn over undocumented immigrants to the feds. Federal District Court Judge William Orrick, blocked his order.

Last year President Obama threatened to pull federal funding from schools that don’t provide transgender restroom facilities. Trump revoked that rule in February.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton had sued over the bathroom issue on the grounds that Obama had bypassed congressional authority. Judge Orick used the same reasoning to block Trump’s sanctuary order.

I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people that do.



The fact that it's so easy to find so many cartoons and thinkpieces and lovely tweets calling the Berkeley students who think fascism is bad "THE REAL NAZIS" in complete contradiction to the actual facts is why Trump got elected. Everything can be twisted into "other side bad, my side good" and you can find thousands of 'sources' agreeing with you. Reality has ceased to matter.

That's propaganda 101, refitted for a 21st century government consisting of two sides. This American Life podcast did an interesting podcast on Putin's methods of information control, which involved a lot of techniques he learned from reality TV to make things less about information and more about making it exciting. Podcast here, transcript here. We're seeing a lot of the same, you got to make things exciting, not truthful.

I know book burning is a strong visual metaphor and everything but social media being covered by your articles and not your opponent's is the real power over information nowadays. How to represent that visually though...

I suppose one could do an interesting study on which would more likely to create ambiguity in conversation between those two when referring to a high animacy referent where you don't know or care about the gender.

Not Tinsley though because he actively hates the advancement of human knowledge.

The people were ASTONISHED at his doctrine.


They has been a singular since at least the 14th century and its attempted elimination by staunch prescriptivist types is a comparatively recent phenomenon (Mid-19th century) which never completely caught on even when it was a popular rule to try to implement.

Could it be that :tinsley: doesn't actually give a poo poo about the English language and just wants to be a dehumanizing rear end in a top hat?!

"You" used to be plural-only, but then it started replacing "thou" as the second-person singular pronoun of choice. The Tinsleys of the 17th century must've been annoyed by that shift too
