People predicting the demise of baseball seem to forget that there will always be new old people.

It's used by somebody that hates Japanese culture to denigrate somebody else that does. The w-word is similar to the n-word however. Between fans of Japanese media, it can be used to poke fun of oneself and becomes an insult otherwise. Some people, like me, doesn't like to be called the w-word at all. Can I love Japanese media without being called the w-word. I believe that, yes, I can.

Frankly, I think impeachment is necessary to assure total victory in 2020. What we’re looking at now is something like Biden cruising to an easy, feel-good win over Trump in some key swing states that gives certain, less politically inclined voters to wipe their forehead and stop paying attention once things are back to “normal.” The fact that Trump is president is anything but normal. So is the reckless degree to which he’s cheated the law to get there, is currently doing so now, and that the Republican Party seems to be operating solely to give him cover. What Democrats need to do is convince the country that his actions demand impeachment. And when McConnell and co. let him off the hook, drive that narrative hard - they failed to do their jobs. They are part of the problem. They should be removed from office by the most convenient means necessary. Hey, isn’t there an election right around the corner?
I agree. We're not just fighting over who has control in 2020 - though that's important - we're also fighting over what the Trump legacy is. I think in order for the Republic to be safe, the Trump presidency has to turn into an "anti-precedent."Anti-precedential cases come from Supreme Court decisions that are so widely considered to have been decided incorrectly that citing the case as precedent actually makes people less likely to believe that it should be the law of the land. The Dred Scott Decision is one example; many others are actually technically good law. Koremasu, the case that allowed for the interment of Japanese Americans, is one such case, despite never having been formally overturned by the court, as is Buck V. Bell, the case that legalized eugenics programs with Oliver Wendell Holmes writing "Three Generations of Imbeciles are enough." I think this kind of applies to presidencies, too. There's presidents where when someone says a president did such and such a thing, it's taken to mean "well, things didn't go to shit that time, so it can't be too crazy a policy." And there are some presidents where a tactic simply being associated with the president makes everyone's hairs stand on end. W. Bush was widely loathed in the last terms of his office, facing lower approval ratings than even Nixon did, but he never got tarred with the "absolute failure" brush hard enough for "Bush did X thing" to mean "you absolutely can't do that," as opposed to "How bad could it be?" Nixon is the most obvious anti-precedential president, where "Nixonian" is a term of abuse and where "well, Nixon did X" is taken as a good reason not to do X.We need Trump's legacy to be Nixon's, not Bush's.

So Heidi was a secret slutbag who begged her husband to spitroast her with her cosplay friend while claiming to be a monogamous pure angel on Twitter. She also actively pushed Jared to be involved with Holly despite Holly being married. And she started this shitshow by going scorched earth on him on Facebook and then later Twitter.Holly meanwhile is """asexual""" and blue balling Ross for SEVEN YEARS until goblin-boy Jared comes along and she's suddenly all over his dick. Also, she doesn't care that Jared allegedly sent explicit images to minors.Jared has been sending dickpics to minors according to his ex-wife, his side-chick and several of his fans. He also wants to exit his marriage with "style and grace" while divorcing his wife via fucking Twitter.All three are playing the muh-mental-health-card to excuse their disgusting degeneracy.And Ross is trying to stay out of this shitshow. But he is being pulled in by the sheer gravitational force of this disaster and is emerging to be either the biggest beta giant dad in existence by never having sex with his wife for seven years and then be cheated on, or being a degenerate himself by being okay with Jared fucking his wife.
I get all my Jared news only from credible sources
The name Jared is cancelled . All of this stuff coming out is peak clout chasing for a bunch of dinosaur "influencers" Deeply unfuckable behavior they're almost acting this badly to try and distract from the fact he was trying to get with the kids.
The way ya'll were talking up this Heidi chica, you'd think she was tres chaud. She's like a 4.
I would drag my dick through shards of glass, i would stick my testicles in a blender, i would crawl 4 miles through burning coals

I heard stufte has cooties.
I am genuinely asking for the relationship between the phrases "giant dad" and "kuck" and I know I won't receive it but I have to ask anywayI still laugh every time regardless
It’s cuz Bore mods <3 are a bunch of taco loving Creepy Stalker giant dads
They're the fucking worst.Oh a piece of dog food fell out of the bowl and you didn't see it right away? Fuck you that's our home now.We're not messy people but with two kids and pets there's only so much you can do. I spray and wipe and sprinkle and spray again and spray outside and place ant traps but fuck.This "house" we're living in doesn't make it easy either, it's more holes than walls.And now that I'm done cleaning up after them, I keep feeling like they're crawling on my skin.Worst part of summer.Fuck ants.

This scene was my first indication that the writers were trying to gaslight us
It's great.I just hope the people involved were compensated adequately.
If you thought that GRRM would have Daenerys win the Game of Thrones you really weren't paying attention to the show.
