Obviously, I don't know which state you live in, but I suspect (as others have expressed in this thread) that the GOP wouldn't stand a chance (especially in the Southern states -- which, as we've noticed, is where most voter suppression efforts have been concentrated) if voting were made easier in any way for non-white voters. Last month, our state's governor, Kevin "Bull" Stitt, reinstated a requirement (which our state Supreme Court had previously struck down) for all absentee (mail-in) votes to be notarized; citing the old "protecting election integrity" excuse during this pandemic, even though instances of voter fraud are few, far between and (as recent events have shown) usually perpetrated by Republicans. Oklahoma is one of three states to have this ridiculous requirement; Mississippi and Missouri are the others. Of course, in lieu of notarization, Oklahoma voters can mail in their ballots with a copy of their ID or voter registration card "if a public health emergency has been declared within 45 days of an election." But, as we know, ID's remain an issue and a sore spot particularly with immigrants and working class voters; and if I know my state, I'd bet that, come this fall, there won't BE any public health emergencies to keep folks here from heading to the polling places and (exposing themselves once again to the coronavirus and) voting.

This must've been during the time she was busy with "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" and "Phyllis." Damn, that IS sad. I know Cloris is eccentric (to put it mildly), but a neglectful mother...? Damn.

What happened in GA yesterday is nothing short of a national disgrace, and I'm STILL pissed about it today. Wypipo will do anything to retain power and deny black and brown people their constitutional rights. Now, I'm hearing (from my aunt, who's positively borderline, so take it with a grain of salt) that in El Reno, OK, where most of my extended relatives live, they are deputizing and arming citizens in order to help the local police force "keep law and order." Like it's an episode of "Gunsmoke," or something.

Wait, what?

I'm not sure, but didn't Fred(die) Bartholomew also work at EON as a producer and/or director?

Well, Douglas Marland WAS a fan of "A Streetcar Named Desire."

Granted, I'm a virgin, but...aren't sexually active people creative enough?

D.E.A.D. I can't even address this, it's so absurd.

ICAM. I, too, applaud those who stayed and made sure everyone in line had their opportunity to vote. Black voters DO matter, even if the states wish they didn't.

Yes! Absolutely! Off the top of my head: Cady McClain as Samantha Marler (GL). Marcia McCabe as Hope Bauer Spaulding (also GL).

But, that would mean bringing Drucilla back from the dead; and the more time passes, the more tired I become of that plot device. On the other hand, if there were some way to explain Dru had a long-lost twin sister....

The only time when it was okay for a man of 21 to date a girl of 15 was during the Middle Ages -- and that's because, life spans were remarkably short; and if she wasn't married and with children by then, she was considered an old maid, cursed to spinsterhood for all eternity.

Because we've been served so badly by the networks/studios, we've learned to be forgiving toward Black shows that aren't necessarily the best written. (Although we do have limits, which explains the quick deaths of "Homeboys in Outer Space" and "The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeffer," among others.) I give Steven Bochco credit for trying to rectify that situation with his short-lived "City of Angels," which was the first network TV drama series to feature a predominantly Black cast (Blair Underwood, Vivica A. Fox, etc.). But, man, the writing for that show, like most of Bochco's post-"NYPD Blue" shows, was so anemic.

Perhaps. On the other hand, she could be just covering her ass. ;)

Exactly, lol!

Yup!

Laura seemed to be into older men, didn't she?

I ask myself that same question. Of course, you and I both know White America couldn't care less. If the situation were reversed, and Karens and Todds living in the suburbs had to wait in line for hours to vote, or deal with polling places that were short on workers and/or voting machines, things would be reformed lickety-split. But, it's brown and black people who have to deal with these inconveniences every freaking time, so [!@#$%^&*] 'em.

Social media Must. Die.

Here's a hint:

I'd say I could enjoy anything from GL right up until, oh, maybe 1995? Then, after that, it gets dicey. VERY dicey.

When will people learn to keep that mess off social media?

It's Twitter. Need we say more? Agree!

Apparently, nobody at the WH likes it when Daddy Donald is grumpy.
