the trick is to have no children and resign yourself to early death so you don't have to save for retirement.

All this talk about West Wing, I've already moved on to hating Sorkin's newer work "Billions" where his main character is a sociopathic liar and cheating billionaire who made his money by exploiting 9/11,
and the villain is a Jewish attorney general who loves to be sexually dominated by his wife who is cucking him with the main character

Edit: Apparently it's a different A. Sorkin, oops

Yeah, I mean if there's one thing that Republicans are known for nationwide, it's their love and admiration for Democrats from New York City.

after a rigorous and far-ranging survey of the new york times editorial page, new york magazine, the new yorker, the economist, and several wall street journal columnists, as well as conducting expert interviews with scholars at the rockefeller institute, i can confirm that this is 100% correct, but only if said democrats are willing to reach across the aisle to reach bipartisan deficit-reduction solutions

apropos of nothing:

when can we start calling "Right to work" instead "their right to YOUR work?"
the latter is more aptly called capitalism

even if you are unionized, capitalists are still entitled to your work

Breakfast All Day posted:

"right to work" is one of the best examples of dems being bad and dumb and not realizing the occasional messaging competence of the right, because the moment you say "right to work" or debate "right to work" or oppose "right to work" you have loving lost. like because of ~decorum~ they dont get that you dont have to engage with and thereby legitimize the terms used by your honorable first affirmative constructive opponent
it's not an example of dems being dumb. dems actually want to destroy unions because their donors want to destroy unions and some dems do actually ideologically embrace destroying unions. some dems (e.g. the vp candidate in 2016) even support "right to work"

It's not that. Like Doug Jones being pro-choice, Casey is anti-abortion. Blame Catholicism.

He’s always been pro-life, though he reliably votes to support funding for Planned Parenthood. His dad was too, that’s their thing.

It was funny when PA had pro-choice Republican specter and pro-life Democrat Casey for a while.

Anyway yea it sucks but it’s nothing new for him.

Anyway I forgot New Yorkers are some of those people who are sticklers about whether you live in the city limits or not. Boston is not such a place (Boston proper is quite small but the metro area is fairly large); thanks for the reminder to watch my words :tipshat:
