It should be a four way conversation with the Daily Show actors representing them and their actual selves.

Chicago's very much peak here, yeah. But I've spent time in a number of places in my itinerant fuck-up youth phase, and very few beat the Bay Area (it's just that Chicago is one of those).

Well, the face you made is an excellent one. I'm just sayin'. If that one makes that face and the others don't, that's worth noting.

I lived in Oakland for a while and walked everywhere that I didn't BART to. Didn't own a car, didn't have an Uber or Lyft account at that point! Maybe it's neighborhood dependent obviously. Right now I'm in South Bay and I also basically never drive but admittedly I *bike* if it's to downtown.

every city and suburb in the Bay Area is more walkable and accessible than almost every other city in the United States, yes even the Bay Area suburbs are, and nobody fuckin' *does* anything with that. people will drive half a mile instead of walk it and I don't understand at all.

I have reasons not to try to get into Kimmy! (I know other people really love it or really vibe with it and I think that's totally valid, obviously.) Maybe as a joke I could put up a "make Aaron liveread Kimmy and rant about her reactions to it and feelings about it" Patreon goal when I relaunch.

I think he hates everyone whom he thinks stands between where he is now and one (or more) steps up the ladder. Any ladder. Pick one, pick 'em all. It's just *usually* that's Republicans.

I've done one of their, like, skills workshops? I'm not sure if that's the same thing. The lady barely tried to sell me on anything at all, she was just focused on getting me to get better at eyeliner, lol.

I could also recommend books if you're into that. ... none of the books I would recommend is anything like Kimmy. ... I *think*. I did not read Kimmy.

It has a main character who doesn't want to kill humans because that would be dumb he wants to watch his shows and protect his crew and has he mentioned that if he kills all the humans nobody will be making more shows? duh.

No it's actually an amazing character study it's also definitely not (kimmy) for traumatized depersonalized agender cinnamon rolls with space autism

Hey, that's not true, there's also the best poster of all: the Consumer Safety guy with the memes! ... what do you mean he's niche? 🙃

Someone should start up a Mi Shebeirach (Jewish prayer for healing) on behalf of among other people that lady who was injured yesterday (or so I heard happened)

Like I say this as a liberal, there's a skill issue there.

The black bloc is a tiny fraction of left protesters, but yeah, that tiny fraction sucks ass.

Conservatives need to obey the Law of Take Conservation (only one good take allowed and his is being anti Trump)
comment in response to post
There's nothing wrong with organizing and there's nothing irregular about most lefties who protest. What it needs to not be is black bloc dipshits with bricks and balaclavas, or omnicause dead-enders who are mad that normies care about things. The tent is wide and everyone else should get in it.

The girl urge to set things on fire. The dad urge to grill. It is the non-binary trans girl Dad who is the apex camp pyro.
