I teach and perform improv but you don't have to come to my shows, I get it. But what about my board game nights? Oh, you're busy then too. Some other time.
Dear Charlotte: I am so sorry you're dealing with this now. I hope you keep your heads up and fight
Dear L.A.: anything we Chicagoans should know about this next phase?

Liberalism's Positive Vision Must Be the Open Society
Liberalism is not just the mitigation of dangers. It is also an active striving towards a world that is truly free.

The problem of course is we have a political and economic system that has eliminated the downsides of insane behavior and risk taking. You can burn down the world and then shrug and walk away with billions. Seems like a problem

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.

The idea that sexual abuse is part of “private” life instead of a public crisis has done incalculable damage. Anti-rape activists have to fight to even make it possible to expose sexual abuse as a wrongdoing in public without being silenced and undermined. That fight is far from won

Greg Bovino was caught doing N*zi shit once again with a group of ICE agents! This time he threw in new hand gestures that these modern day N*zis concocted to ruin the game of ‘rock, paper, scissors’ for everyone.

also because Trump is so removed from how regular people live in this country, he doesn't realize those Thanksgiving deals aren't being touted to prove how great things are but because stores realize people are having a hard time affording Thanksgiving dinner at all right now

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

For people who dismiss the horrors we're living through in the US with "it's always been like this," I would say the powers that be always wanted us to be numb to others' suffering, now they want us to enjoy and root for it. A reveling in evil as opposed to turning a blind eye

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society
What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.
