ah man I also just remembered something else edwards did

when kerry was interviewing his vp shortlist for the 2004 race he got to edwards and edwards told kerry a story to impress him

the story was about how when edwards's son died he climbed up onto the mortician's slab to cradle the body and whisper promises about being a good man to it, and edwards prefaced this story by telling kerry that he had never shared this with anyone else

kerry was taken aback because he remembered edwards telling him the exact same story years earlier

he picked him for vp anyway lmao

TIL That the Hobbit movies weren't just poo poo, they were used as a bludgeon to blow up all film based unions in New Zealand in order to appease Warner Brothers studio executives.

iirc the unions were tired of being treated like poo poo by the studio during the first movie so warner brothers just decided to replace all the real people orcs with lovely polish CGI orcs for the next 2 movies instead

A video came out going over it recently:

I would recommend watching the first two in the series, but those are less political and more film criticism:

Trump was too dumb to be swayed by the bullshit Washington Neocon/liberal groupthink of "don't negotiate with our enemies because that legitimizes them!" And he's going to end up having a greater positive impact on international politics than Obama.

syq dude, just syq!

I don't understand this. It seems like literal nonsense. How does an opponent not always want you to resign. How is a shithead from your own party an "opponent".

I get that it's someone being dumb about Corbyn in 2016, but what are they even saying

the person calling on corbyn to resign was david cameron not someone from his own party and i think the answer is "i didn't really think this through"

Google says it was after and was in direct response to Charlottesville.

I don’t want any more good people to get hurt and I know a lot of us are feeling anxious and we’re asking ourselves, ‘What can I do? I’m just one person. What can I do?’

I would urge people this Saturday, instead of participating in the screaming matches and potential violence, find a local business you support: Maybe a Jewish-run bakery or an African American-run bakery. Order a cake with the American flag on it like this one and just eat it.
