Any Democrat who thinks it's appropriate to "find common ground" with the Republicans on issues like high school sports teams is negotiating with a political party that does not believe trans people should exist. This policy will kill people, so maybe stop wringing your hands about volleyball.

Because using your brainstorm to do the FUN part of creating is the problem we're trying to solve.
Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

This entire administration is running off a fear of cooties.
The public: "We are desperate for help with the cost of living. Please do something."

Trump administration: "Penis."

Replace "Nome King" with just about anybody in the Trump administration. L. Frank Baum knew what he was talking about.

I was cackling evilly as my students shivered in their shoulder-cutout and backless sweaters during the final exam, while I sat comfortably, swathed in corduroy pants, waffle shirt, and a fleece vest.

Cringe comes to us all. We might as well be happy and comfortable when it does.

So true! What they don't be doing, though, is getting reproductive healthcare from their GOP representatives

This is an impeachment offense, and if our press were worth half of a quarter of a shit, it would be all over every single channel, kind of like Joe Biden being a bit slow with a name now and then.
This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…
