Dennis Schroder has now been on 11/30 teams. He's only 32 yrs old, I feel like he could get to 20 at least before he's done

The choice was give up on having a place that felt like this or embrace being in a place that is the internet equivalent of a sound proofed closet. At least the closet is cozy.

It's remarkable how being a true conservative now seems to mean openly hating the idea of America

We call this the "Obnoxiously Smarmy Lib Poster Redemption Through Real Life Action" principle

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.

Elliot “Overton Window” Forhan is running for AG in Ohio and says Trump should face capital punishment. Strongly encourage other Dems to embrace the reasonable centrist position of lifetime jail and / or exile to the Moon.

Omar is such a great example of how immigration makes us stronger.
The whiny little piss babies in the Republican party that have never struggled, have never had to fight to call a place home -- they couldn't possibly match this.

REP. OMAR after being attacked with liquid: “We will continue! These fucking assholes are not gonna get away with this! Here is the reality people like this ugly man don’t understand — we are Minnesota Strong. We’ll stay resilient in the face of whatever they might throw at us.”
