    Lisa, you have low chances of surviving The Revolution, and even less with that attitude

      I've posted this comment before, but I really want to see what happens when people like her and then people like Richard Spencer end up in a gulag or guillotine line next to each other.

    i've often wondered if the main reason why they picked a complete loser like copmala as VP was that out of all the mainstream-compatible picks, she's got the most aggressive stans on twitter

      They picked her because she has relatives are on the board at Uber and she's from SF (Pelosi and Newsom are the real stars of the Democratic Party imo). She kinda rules too tbh. Just like Biden, not ambitious enough to really fuck things up too badly and also does funny shit.

        American politics don't worry about that as all american elections boil down to both parties desperately trying to rig the election. American politicians don't even campaign outside their base.

        electorally America operates in "Dick Dastardly stops to cheat" mode all the time

      Without their KHueen the KHive is uncoordinated and adrift. But when they're inspired by my bold and inspiring leadership, even the Bernie Bros can't stand up to their swarm tactics! Or something. Anyway, yes, my Twitter stans were considered a major asset in the General Election for countering the Twitter MAGA crowd.

      The episode is named The Old and the Restless, and Henry enters a nursing home under the name Talmadge McGulager, a reference to the Simpsons episode "The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons," where Homer stays at Springfield Retirement Castle under the name Cornelius Talmadge while Marge pretends to be Apu's wife to help him escape an arranged marriage.

      I have an encyclopedic knowledge of Psych, don't know why.

        I respect it, I fucking love that show. It’s the only cop show i support.

        Edit: Also now that you named it I 100% remember the episode in question

    Average undergrad student loan debt is $36k. Average graduate student loan debt is $91k. This girl is way outside the normal debt load.

    So we could have some kind of conversation about how certain schools or students are accruing enormous debts, whether student bankruptcy should be a tool they're afforded, and what a better model of higher education might look like.

    Or we could do some weird fucking insult-comic retorts to random people on the internet.

      17 year old kids should be allowed to make mistakes. Even if they make the same mistake again at 22. If I'd been allowed to, I would have gone to the wildly unaffordable out of state private school my girlfriend did and that would have set me back at least 200k just for undergrad, nevermind the 250k medical school set me back, which gained a lot of interest at the federal rate of 8.5% both during school and while I was in residency working for minimum wage for years.

      Many doctors and lawyers would happily work in public service for peanuts if they didn't have a 2-4k student loan payment each month. Personally I always joke about it being the mortgage for my imaginary house.
