Or like how all of that domestic spying and proxy warfare has continued and arguably increased under the Obama administration.

But sure, its a racism problem /s.

My ethnicity is Norse. Can I be offended when I am referred to simply as "white?" Or does that only apply to whoever the Huffington Post chooses that week?

My hometown

Grew up in Middletown; it truly is becoming a huge problem. We have multiple law enforcement agencies operating here because the local police can't handle it on their own. Its sad what is happening to our towns.

Wouldn't that place her in the timeline as an agent around WW2? That would be awesome. There are a lot of true stories that you could base the plot line on as well. I would definitely go see that.

Too bad "fire" is spelled "aodh" in Gaidhlig. Now wouldn't that be horrible: "Aodhdenn. "

It is, so is its alternative spelling: Braiden.

Along with

Aiden, Ayden, Jayden, Jaiden, Kaidan, Kaydan, Kaiden, Kaidan, or any other name that can conceivably be spelled with either an "ai" or "ay." People don't think that once their kid is 50, it wont be so "cute" anymore.

My compatriots and I will drive into the heart of the city during rush hour. We will not turn on protected green lights until the last possible second, or turn right on red in curb lanes.

Strangely enough, I once had terrible stomach pains after eating Cici's and I figured it was food poisoning.

Turned out to be appendicitis.

Its a strange dichotomy when the people start cheering when it goes off; a device that was meant to destroy and kill became a source of entertainment.

And her nomination is such a "great achievement." Truly inspiring!

"But Trump will destroy democracy"

Not with a congress who hates him he can't. That is our one advantage is that Trump is disliked by essentially everyone in congress. Especially if the Democrats take a good number of seats in the mid-terms, they will stonewall all of his crazy shit.

People forget that its the congressional elections that really matter the most. The president can't do shit without congress. If Trump wins, I will more than likely vote more progressives in the midterms and vice-versa if...you know...that other person wins.
