The Protecting Pedophiles Ballroom is a bit of a tongue twister, so The Epstein Ballroom works better.

Yes but I still quote Meadowlark Lemon nearly every time I get injured.

Our public radio station played The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight on the day they announced REM had broken up, and while it's not my favorite, it felt iconic.

For the love of God, man... Stop this lame-ass shit and fight! Healthcare is not even a consideration if we've lost our freedom.

That's a worried face! My Grand-kitty Kya had to fast for a blood test last week. Fasting was not a concept she understands.

I thought this was a NYT Pitchbot post for a second.

Fight or resign. Stop this weak-ass bullshit.
We do deserve better... than what you are doing.

Your coverage of this was not great. It's like you have no experience with dictators or grandparents with dementia.

We see that kind of result from our pro bono legal clinic. Kids with unbelievably bad parents can grow up to be good people.

Absolutely, parents should be the biggest influence, not shrugging anything off. I'm just pushing back against the judging of individuals/entire groups based on parenting. That seems like what conservatives would do. I would have hoped for more nuance and humility here.

I didn't say, but that didn't slow the mob down. Nothing to do with Nazis et al. My point was that no parent can guarantee any outcome good or bad. It really does take a village and luck/Grace. But apparently the village would rather just dunk on each other.

Same!
August 9, 2025 at 3:49 AM
That's ... quite a narrative. I feel like I have a tiny inkling of what women must go thru after receiving all this parent-splaining.

I don't know, man. Putting those words in the same sentence seems kinda Jeffrey Epstein to me. Or are you a Catholic priest?
August 9, 2025 at 3:20 AM
Those terms are not interchangeable. In WWII, the US was white supremacist and anti-Nazi. It seems you're just using the most inflammatory language you can. I don't think any parent can guarantee any outcome good or bad. It takes a village and a lot of luck/Grace.
August 9, 2025 at 2:20 AM
Honestly, how did you get Nazi out of anything I said?
August 9, 2025 at 1:44 AM
You might want to take a breath. Nowhere did I say what my kid's youthful rebellion was. How did you get to Nazi?
August 9, 2025 at 12:21 AM
I have a similar opinion of Bernie. I guess his parents failed? ;) No, my kid got into other bs so diametrically opposed to his upbringing that I can see how anything can happen. He was away at school suffering with depression and the internet is predatory.

That’s not what I said, or at least not what I meant. Words have a life of their own, much like kids. Parents can’t 100%control kids. So I don’t think criticizing Newsome for what his kid does is the best take. But apparently I can’t communicate within the character limit.
August 8, 2025 at 2:05 PM
Hi! That's great! My point, perhaps poorly made, was that parents don't 100% control their kids. There's plenty to criticize Newsome for before you get to what his kid does. A primary vote for Bernie was rebellion?
August 8, 2025 at 12:10 PM
It’s like you think bad things don’t happen to good people. You can do all your good parenting techniques and it doesn’t guarantee the results. I don’t think the guv was a good person before this.
