Another thing: lib Dems like to think suburban Republicans are the potential splinter they can peel off. This is because they look at them and think, "wow they look just like us." But the seat of GOP power here is in the white flight suburbs around Birmingham, not a trailer park.

Cheerleading when this shithouse fucks up again and again and again can only keep the state GOP in power. And the state GOP is doing way more to fuck up life here than the federal government.

Even the state GOP, which is a monstrously corrupt iteration of the same evil ruling party that's always governed the state, is mildly more idealistic than the state Dems, (even if those ideals are insane and evil.)

Everyone in NY and California who's suddenly an expert on Alabama politics needs to realize first and foremost that we have the worst, most dysfunctional, cynical, late-Soviet-style gerontocracy, borderline non-existent state party (Dems or GOP) in the entire country.

Thinking about how I'm working in an industry that's collapsing more due to shithead TV station owners making bad decisions than *the march of progress*. But also thinking: how is it 2017 and Geese Howard's still the best fighting game boss?
I don't begrudge anybody getting promoted from grunt work to management, but if the bosses tell you to not to tell the grunts about a secret firing list and you do it, you're gonna permanently lose the respect of people under you, bootlicker.
Well it's finally happening. Layoffs started tonight at the TV station I work at.
Mark Hamill really kept up his acting chops where the rest of the Star Wars leads did not.

Describe OMAC in context of 70s superhero comics and it sounds super weird. Describe OMAC as Trigger's new anime and it sounds perfect.

Mentally Preoccupied With How Well Jack Kirby's 70s Output Would Work as Anime.

Like the guy who made your favorite dude say snikt bub etc. also made it his stated goal to get young girls to read superhero comics.
Weird thing about this kind of comic guy: X-men sold more comics than God at exact time the supreme "male feminist" prototype was writing. xitter.cf/barrydeutsch/status/91…
1. This ridiculous tweet is getting so much attention, not just because of hilarious cluelessness, but because it's representative.

..takes a look at the destroyed landscape and says, "wow. This is some shit."
I was hired as a PA for segment. The first I see of him he gets out of a black SUV surrounded by assistants...

Not random, but after a tornado destroyed 12% of my home town, Nick Cannon came for some Nickelodeon do-gooder show segment. xitter.cf/scottmerkin/status/898…
Tonight's Twitter question: What is the most random meeting you've ever had with someone famous? Share the story

Birmingham DSA wants to see a rebuttal piece to Schulman and Sloughter. After that, no more op-eds on the website.

Really not sure what to think about this and not sure Kirby would either. Also, when's Ditko getting of these? xitter.cf/Marvel/status/88594790…
Jack Kirby is inducted as one of the newest Disney Legends at #D23Expo! His son Neal Kirby accepts the award on his behalf.
Replying to @DemSocialists
You will see women and POC at those meetings, and I'm not sure you're going to know what to do.
To scum like you, Confederacy just an affectation of your shitty beliefs. The rest of us actually have to live with it. Fuck you.
If you'd actually grown up here and read a history book, you'd know that suffering caused by that hateful institution runs into the present.
