I'm just relieved that they cited, "the Oxfordian, a journal of Shakespearean authorship studies." I mean that clinches the deal right there!

You are going to be the best of chums, I know it!

Thank you so much for taking this on! You are a wonder!

That interview with Douthat--chief water-carrier--was vomitous.

Yes--as a union guy, of course I want everyone to join the union. They SHOULD feel obligated to do so. But even if they don't l, it is as you say. Some would argue that a union will be more zealous in repping you if you're a dues-payer but that's not what I have seen at my local.

Need to watch that show!

I would not mind it one bit if, say, Trump or Stephen Miller had an encounter with Iorek--just enough to scare them into being human.

Are too! You absolutely belong in a 17th c. harem as a guard or as an understudy to Farinelli.

If YOU had any balls, cognitively speaking, you'd actually defend your position. But you're incapable--an intellectual eunuch.

Your advice: A shrug, tired rhetoric about "snowflakes," and "grow a pair." This is a morally and intellectually stunted response. Given your other posts, I don't have much hope that you'll do better. But still: Do better, you smug asshole. /x

to allow ugly attacks on trans people. The trans people I know are pretty damned tough--most of them tougher than you, I'd wager--but still, being so frequently the target of demeaning and dehumanizing abuse, along with actual physical violence, is difficult for even the toughest person. /4

about the legitimation of such attacks on fb. FB is not the public square; speech there is not protected by the First Amendment, which is about government control of speech in any case. It's a private, enormously profitable company that is deciding to alter its terms of service./3
