THIS!
LOVE IT!!! Mama Liz. And yes Aunt Amy. And Tulsi can be like Maris or Norm's wife... we hear about her a lot, but no-ones ever seen her.
Probably. She's a fighter, and I think the others dropping out could re-vitalise her base and her chances. I really like her, so here's hoping.

We are Fredrick the Great. We are Rustin. We are Addams. We are Marsha! Marsha Marsha Marsha! We so generous, we DeGeneres. We are Ziggy Stardust hooked to the silver screen. Controversially we are Malcolm X. We are Plato. We are Aristotle. We are RuPaul, god dammit! And yes, we are Woolf."
Oh come on man, he's dropped out. That's like me calling Gordon Brown names. Just... no...
(SIDE NOTE: actually I didn't mind Gordon Brown, minus the homophobia due to his religious beliefs)
*Kieran looks at people still slagging off Pete, looks at the dementia comments over Biden, looks back to Beastie*
YA THINK!!!
Oh... I'm desperately wanting to believe that was a joke, but... *sigh* What was that about internalised homophobia again?
If someone does it once, they do it twice. It's like when a celebrity gets caught using the N word or F word and swears they've never said it before. I'm sure we all believe them.
That is possibly true. But I don't intentionally mislabel. Even a patronising b*stard like myself has standards Added to that, regardless of whether I patronise or not (and I am aware my tone often comes off as that, as is the nature of the internet and not always being able to deliver the tone you intend when trying to be informative), it's the "rainbow" part that leaves me uncomfortable. The soapbox I give you, but the need to make it gay... eeeeeee... not a good look. Like when someone gets fired not for saying "that b*tch" but they felt the need to add "that BLACK b*tch" kind of uncomfortable. It was just an unnecessary addition of an adjective that, said a lot...
[SIDE NOTE: ohhhh "an unnecessary addition of an adjective" is a great tongue twister, must remember to use that for warm-ups]
HA! Touché

Longtime (x-books) lurker but just discovered this page - super excited/anxious/eager for Super Tuesday to be over!
And we don't even vote until St. Paddy's in Illinois.
Ha!!! I see people are pretty passionate.

I'm proud of my man, Mayor Pete (he was my first choice for a candidate). He did the right thing to help stop the rise of Trojan Communism and Naked Authoritarianism in this country. I only hope his actions are not in vain.
In honor of Pete, I'll be voting for Biden on Super Tuesday.
