"Oh, shut up Bernie" has become my new mantra.

 

Anyone on the far-left who still holds out hope for a real, progressivist revolution, led either by Bernie Sanders or someone else, has a long, long, LONG wait ahead of them.

 

 

Pete Buttigieg would be better off hoping for a TV gig.  (I hear Ellen DeGeneres's show could be on the market.)

There's a 18 page and growing thread over on Lipstick Alley talking about Kamala's ethnicity. When it comes to politics,  Lipstick Alley posters mainly consists of agents (white conservatives who infiltrate black websites by  pretending to be black),  Uncle Toms, fake militants, and Bernie Bros. One of the main posters who is going after Kamala has a Kylie Jenner avatar.

It's absolutely true and it's going to be one hell of a fight.  The voter suppression and disinformation campaigns are already in high gear. It will never stop amazing me how much power Fox "News" has over people.

 

Already I'm seeing people say that Harris called Biden a racist (she said the opposite) while challenging his past positions on busing. They are saying she believed his accusers. Meanwhile he never denied kissing that woman on the head and such. He even promised to do better.  She never said she believed TR. She said she had the right to tell her story. Ugh. This stuff drives me nuts.

I've been following the MA-Senate primary off and on, because Joe Kennedy seemed to be running just to run without much to offer voters. Ed Markey, the incumbent, is, sadly, being propped up by ex-Bernie cultists, but this is still quite an entertaining moment (and Kennedy's lackluster response probably shows you why he is currently beginning to crater in polling).

Jeannine Pirro: "Something's going to happen before the election, and [Joe Biden's] not even going to be on the ticket."

 

That's funny, many have been saying the same thing about Donald Trump. #NaturalCauses2020

        New interview!! I was like Penny, aka Janet, and said, "That's the end???"
    • You're really in for it, because those rants continue for 3 episodes. I was struck by how ho-hum those cliffhangers were. It was like the writers ran out of gas.
    • New Tomas pleaseeeeeeee!!

    • Thank you for the clarification, but Susan didn't name her child after David.  It was Julie who named her own son David.   And how/when was Susan's son killed?  And didn't Susan kill David Martin and stand trial for his murder?   The genius of Bill Bell -- truly.  
    • I truly wish we could see more of her work on DAYS. And more of her early stuff on GH, but at least we know that Corday’s DAYS vault is virtually complete, especially compared to GH. Lesley was a pivotal character. I think the scenes with the confrontation with Monica are so good because there is a lot of character in those lines and performances. Monica is ferocious, desperate. And Lesley is not a victim, she holds her own and calls Monica out, playing her own form of anger. Evenly matched. Soap confrontations have largely forgotten that both sides should be evenly matched, even if someone has wronged another. To me, that scene is easily in my soap hall of fame. They didn’t make enough of her return, which has always bothered me. I would have loved for her to end up vying for control of the hospital when Alan was incapacitated by drugs, helping him through that crisis and finding herself at odds with Monica again on a different level, not as romantic rivals. She had such a long career! Acting in radio shows as a little kid, through her GH spots as few years ago. That’s quite a ride. 
    • Damn I was hoping Lesley would be at Monica's memorial  Hoping GH gives Lesley an on screen memorial
    • Today's episode was serviceable, but the cliffhangers were disappointing!
    • I just got to the first set of Dante ranting at Gio episodes and I really need him to shut the hell up. Gio literally was at the party with people his own age and didn’t even know Dante’s kid snuck out to a party. Talking about I could charge you for serving a minor? This is just really stupid writing.
    • Back up a bit. Susan & Julie were best friends. Tom thought David too old for Julie & forbade her to see him. They continued but they had to sneak around.  So they couldn't always get together when they wanted to. One of THOSE nights David got drunk. At the same time for different reasons Susan had a huge fight with her parents, slammed out the door & went & also got drunk. David & Susan comforted each other & things took their usual course From that one  drunken night, Susan got pregnant. The 3 made a joint decision. He would marry her to give the child his name & then they would divorce. Is it any wonder this did not go according to plan. Bill Bell wrote this. So best friends became bitter enemies.   I am the exception because I had no problem suspending my disbelief to go along with the LaSalles. I love Marisa as much as I loved Mary. Reginald, always a problem to me, And, Robert Hogan had to be Vince. WhIle I'm at it I am glad that didn't do anything with making Scott a triplet.
