Handmaid's Tale is a really loving good show. their first season basically swept the Emmys. It rough to watch, it's depressing as hell, and there are tons of triggering moments. If you can get through it, watch it; it's really loving good.

The thing that is really weird is I'm pretty sure at that time MJ was already lightening himself up in like '84. Tanning was definitely a thing too, you could have slapped some self tanner on (I think there was that in the early 80s?) or gotten some sun and just wore a jacket and one glove and everyone would know you were MJ. No shoe polish required.


I wonder how long he can drag this out before he gets forced down though.

Tax cut update: Republicans have about faced in my office from "I can't wait for my tax cut from our lovely President" to " I don't care if my taxes actually went down, my refund went down and that's all I cared about: why did they mess with my withholdings? I don't care if I got more money in my paycheck, that was peanuts and I lost that money!" This is not even considering the ones who actually got a tax raise.

I work in a deep red middle class Italian community. Blue state, high property taxes, 3-4 kids on average per couple. They are all seeing their refunds go down, and some have their taxes go up to. They are pissed.

They all act surprised to even though I specifically told them this was going to happen last year. They believe me when I told them that I told them this would happen last year when we did their projection. But, as one person put it, they didn't believe I was telling the truth because it didn't agree with what Fox News told them.

I doubt Fairfax has any racist photos out there so unless he's a sex pest or SA poster, there's nothing to expose that's as bad as Northam.

Edit: and if he is, well, future Democrats, I implore you, please don't run for office if you're a sex pest

Yeah, for someone like McConnell that's actually... fine? Not awesome, but what are you going to do? He's basically already on record denouncing that flag and coming as close as a Republican can to calling it a symbol of racial oppression, so he's about as far ahead of this as he can get. McConnell is loving terrible, but he's an excellent politician.

I'm saying that the only way this could really follow him over the long term or hurt him is if he'd doubled down, which he didn't. People are going to keep tweeting it and his office will keep responding with his fairly unequivocal statement that the Confederate flag is bad.

Well yes, of course. McConnell, as previously stated, is an rear end. He's basically immune to hypocrisy.

I mean, the Democrats tried to invoke the McConnell rule against him and he laughed it off.
