I do go sincerely with the basic theory that you get back the energy you put out in the world. Loveless and cruel people get loveless and cruel lives. Loving and generous people develop loving and generous relationships which lead to lives filled with love and generosity.

Yeah. Depending on where you're coming from, "that's cool as long as I don't have to hear about it" isn't quite the open-minded take you might want it to be.

I'd be careful talkin' about his mom...

The Jackson estate can't hide Leaving Neverland from those who've already seen it A suppressive legal battle turned the moving Sundance documentary Leaving Neverland into a ghost haunting the Michael Jackson biopic.

I will never forget the experience of seeing LEAVING NEVERLAND at its Sundance premiere. For @avclub.com I wrote about a devastating, definitive documentary about surviving sexual abuse that cannot be erased.

A choice of evils - The Boston Globe What if a captured terrorist bragged that he knew the location of a ticking nuclear weapon in a large city and refused to disclose it?

Well, he was fond of "I've always been a Democrat, but do we really need civil rights?"

I had an aunt used to lived directly under one of those high voltage wire towers that criss cross the California deserts. And when I would play in her backyard the humming of it was so loud it'd drive me nuts but nobody else could hear it. Could be a byproduct of the energy use?

The GOP consolidation of the creepy pedo-pal coalition is complete!

Catholic order clarifies meaning of Jerusalem Cross Controversy over tattoos of Trump nominee calls attention to an ancient Christian symbol.

Like, how many genocides have been carried out behind the banner of the Stars and Stripes?

I've certainly not been aware of the Jerusalem Cross' blood-soaked history and encountered it many times in anodyne contexts as a practicing Catholic. But I don't wear tattoos.

The faith-based thugs of Oakland's Your Black Muslim Bakery. Here is the situation regarding the enterprise known as Your Black Muslim Bakery, located on San Pablo Avenue in Oakland, Calif. Its founder, a man...

It was Your Black Muslim Bakery, it was my Black Muslim Bakery. It was the grist for some really off-base Christopher Hitchens demagoguery.

Beneficibot: "I am the inheritor of rich cultural traditions brought into being by all people across all time, and I will enrich all of humanity for all time! *beep boop* Here's a new technique to increase granola yields!"

Yeah, I used to live on 15th downtown, and the bakery on 17th was consistently great. And then they murdered a journalist and stuff... *sigh*

It's definitely a thing gay men have to think carefully about, too. Appearing to come on to a straight man or to be checking him out can get you jumped.

Not to mention broad public support for measures to mitigate COVID transmission. His administration was such a bitter sellout of its supporters.

That's why you gotta open with the flaming sexbot. Hook 'em in the first panel, then lead them up to it with backstory.

The Apple Dunk Cookout

Anyways, the reason why "centrists" want you to believe the left vote is ungettable whatever one does, and that squishy fascists are winnable if courted, is they need to maintain some sham pretense for the democratic legitimacy of a soft-fashy centrist political program that nobody wants.

It is plain that what the Democratic party has done is fund a massive expansion of policing and jailing that will be used by Trump to continue and expand the mechanisms for imprisoning, torturing, and deporting more people. Trump’s promised mass deportation will rely upon the network of immigrant detention facilities that Biden built in order to house the growing number of people Biden detained before Trump’s victory. And Trump has been very clear about what he intends to do with the law enforcement officers and the jails Democrats paid for — at an FOP conference, Trump said, “[W]e will give the heroes in blue the power to legally protect us and the respect that you deserve more than any other group of people.”

One of the greatest failure of the "opposition" has been a constant drumbeat that police are a good solution when they themselves are telling us they support fascism.
