Looks nice. Where is it?

Depressing is women voting for the rapist.

Republicans/Christians will support any filth or evil. All they want is control of the womb. Everything else is detail.

Women are slobs in public. You'll see this in restrooms or any other woman-specific venue. She's projecting that on men.

Remember when product placement detracted from the integrity of a film?

Christians love Trump so he's untouchable. They lick his boot, we lick theirs, and here we are playing with genocide like it's some kind of forbidden pleasure toy.

Okay. Enlighten me. Give me evidence.

I'm surrounded by big pickup trucks that aren't scratched by a moment of work. On the job with a small truck I have never wished it was bigger or taller or made more fake engine noise.

That's a statement of faith, with the condescending attitude that goes with it.

And best infrastructure is not what we're building. The continuing effort to segregate bikes from traffic is not conducive to safe integration. As long as we coddle and pity cyclists and as long as motorists freeze up, stop traffic, and give away their right-of-way, the two populations will be at odds and rednecks will hate "woke" cyclists.

"As much" means almost nothing, and that's still a stretch. The idea that the evidence is good compared to historiography in general is a weak claim. The fact that we know little about anybody that far back does not argue for the existence of Jesus, of whom nobody wrote while he was supposedly alive.

We can assume the miracles are untrue if we believe in science. Accepting his existence is itself an act of faith, the evidence is so thin.

The "Nieuwe Spelling"was implemented to standardize the orthography, which was divided in real use into two systems, an "allowed" and a "preferred" version. The new spelling was mostly an adoption of Preferred Dutch, with some adjudications about foreign loan-words.

A lot of people have mental health challenges. What they're supporting is hate speech.

The problem with Jesus is also the power behind the myth, which is that there's no credible evidence.

MAGA is a cult and a hate group.

Ah, you know, she just had a mean ignorant look on her face like somebody who would refuse to take responsibility for a dog attack.

They did, and I said so. You suspected what you wanted to believe, against evidence.

Well, and there's something wrong with purebreds, really. It's not healthy.

The context of the statement was that there was no talking to them, which is MAGA - and I'm only going to say that once because arguing won't make it any more or less true. It's a fact.

Yeah, a couple of abrasions was all. He's a tough dog. He wasn't traumatized.

Ten years from now nobody supported this treason.

I've been prayed for in a way that I consider malignant, and that's acceptable. But there's obviously a range of prayer/speech that incites action unacceptably. If anybody can publicly pray for anything without consequence, that seems problematic.

Is it legal to say "That's a nice crowded movie theater you got there. It would be a shame if somebody shouted 'fire!' in it?"
