Truman's desegregation of the armed forces is underrated. If you're looking for a Black person in charge, the military is still a great place to look, even as Trump starts his purge of Black top brass.

This attitude discourages action even in the midst of emergencies so, while pretending to be on the side of many good things, it's on the side of them failing.

On etiquette, my theory is that forms of neurodiversity have always existed, and anxious parents have (with much validity) stressed the niceties of etiquette to make the way a little easier for their "different" children. It's still valid, but our culture of online/meat contrarianism interferes.

He'll have fun at left-wing "Japan was the big victim of World War II" pity parties.

I read on his facebook page that he'd paid off one mortgage and it was time to start looking for house #2 so guess what? He's not hurting.

No feedback is an underrated byproduct of lipsynching.

Agreed. Also the IP basis of the complaint will drive a certain subtype of left-winger over the edge.

Funny, he never incorporated the age-of-consent rules of all fifty states into his comedic routines.

I've read a half-dozen of those and I'll never stop appreciating House of Stairs, a great forerunner of today's "Dark YA" school.

I'm not sure if the flight attendant was Black or not, but it sure seems as though the far left and the far right are having a contest to see who hates the Black church more.

Cops have always been an adjunct of white supremacy. The more conservatives rebrand themselves as rebel outlaws, the more they worship cops. The military is in uncharted waters because they and Trump clearly don't get along and the RW media loves to talk about the "woke military".

The same basic thing happened to George W. Bush.

Of all the rock bands that ever rock banded, which one is the most rock bandiest?

You can put a lawn chair in the back of my truck and we'll drive around playing vuvuzela and car horn duets.

Gavin Newsom if you're serious about making California a safe haven from Donald Trump's presidency, you need to make it possible for people to move to California

and that means building some motherfucking housing
