Fugazi Captialism…I gotta imagine Ian groaned when he read that

TIL
MacKaye’s personal philosophy of not drinking alcohol or taking drugs – inspired, ironically enough, by right-wing rocker Ted Nugent’s own abstentions

Wow, I dropped the nuge twice in one day…

I honestly didn't think anything would ever be worse than "Pokemon go to the polls" but this motherfucker did it!

no man, nothing could be worse than that…while I voted for Hill…that comment alone made her unfit to be president

TIL also
Their 1989 release “13 Songs” has since gone triple platinum.
that's impressive and gotta imagine they made a healthy profit on that since there were very few middlemen

this is an interesting devlopment and could tip the election a little more…
Bipartisan group introduced Puerto Rico statehood bill in Congress
I've always thought PR should be a state…Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917!


this I had no idea of
Since 2012, the Republican Party has included Puerto Rican statehood as an official party position in their platform. The position was ratified again in the 2016 Republican National Convention when Trump was formally chosen as the party's nominee for the presidency.
“We support the right of the United States citizens of Puerto Rico to be admitted to the Union as a fully sovereign state," the official Republican platform reads.

They must have done a lot of polling/research that PR would vote GOP??!

here was a great zinger from the asshat @ 1600
“With the mayor of San Juan as bad as she is and as incompetent as she is, Puerto Rico shouldn’t be talking about statehood until they get some people that really know what they’re doing,” Trump said in a September interview.
honestly…what does one have to do with the other

zero chance of PR = state while said asshat is in the white house.  he's way too vindictive.  they hurt his feelings and called him a bad word.  because of that, no statehood for you.

it just keeps getting darker….

I guess if you are going to be “the party of healthcare,” you should probably put someone who is already good a medicare fraud to head it up

"they are going to come up with something really spectacular"
hmm…they have had a decade and have zero to show for their 'plan'

I just can't take the news anymore, it is so freaking depressing…the worst part is they pull some dick move…and then look you and smile

Trump is a disaster, but the party enabling him is really the problem and I hope we find a way to hold them accountable in the end

If anything, it was people like Rachel Maddow whipping everyone into a lather about Trump being a spy that's going to get him re-elected.
Everyone went all in on something that didn't even add up and in the end just gave these scumbags more "fake news, media is the enemy" ammo.  Not Mueller's fault he didn't prove that Trump, the dumbest fucking man alive, was a Russian agent.

This is a guy who does LITERAL financial crimes in front of us, has a history of doing actual financial crimes in the past, is an admitted sex pervert, backs almost exclusively polices that are unpopular by the vast majority of this country, and has no problem propping up actual nazis and white supremacists, and the media decides to focus on the hail mary that this insane dipshit who isn't clever enough to not tweet every thought that runs through his dying brain is somehow a Russian agent? Ok!

Look, I hate Hutch as much as the next person, but, at most, only 80% of that is true about him.

Moving here so sidehatch doesn't stunner me.

I didnt ask about winning… I asked about loving a politician. Not the same thing.

I can rattle off reasons I love the Jesus Lizard or the Butthole Surfers without thinking they'd get into the RNR Hall of Fame. Even though both they should.

If I can ask…what do you "love" about Buttigieg and Beto?  Like, what specific policies or stances do those guys have that you love?  My gut is that people generally just like how those guys make them feel inside, but maybe I'm wrong? I don't really know about Buttigieg Boys or Beto Brahs to ask, but that's the vibe i get from Facebook.

It just seems weird to me to put Warren ("a ton of serious policy proposals") and Sanders ("would try to do things I love") in the same sentence if that's the case. Maybe it's not and those guys have really good policies that people love that I don't know about. I'm dumb!

you still think policy positions win presidential elections?  how quaint.
