Disagree. You can't spoon and snuggle up to a community in bed. Friends are, of course, important but love is what most people are looking for.

Bingo! You're exactly right.

We must have watched different versions of the show. I don't recall Sara and Alyssa hammering home any hard truths. They interrupted and yelled a lot and Alyssa kept waving her wee little stubby fingers in other peoples faces (she does that all the time and it drives me crazy). But you sound just like Alyssa in this post. Thank goodness Ana was there to make her salient points in her adult indoors voice and Joy too.

It's as good an explanation as any other I've heard.

Pretty paltry reason. Sounds like the sort of thing couples go through all the time and that both of them were being petty.

The 'joke' was approved line by line by his campaign as were all the insults and vile rants from all the other speakers. Trump is responsible for his own campaign. He's so weak and unethical he constantly claims he didn't hear or see things at his rallies that inflame half the country. And yet someone who is so stupid they don't know what their hired flunkies are saying wants to run a huge country. Lord help us.

Excellent post. Wish I could 'like' it 100 times. It's a shame that more people can't look honestly at their lives and appreciate all the nuances in life that they benefit from just from being white. I remember having discussions with my son often as he was growing up to be grateful for being tall and blond and blue-eyed and well socialized and smart spoken and to appreciate all the doors it opened for him. Once through those doors he usually had to prove himself but getting in the door is such an important first step that often isn't available for a lot of other people.

That woman had unreasonable expectations of what the government can do for her and therefore her comments blaming Kamala for her problems came off as whiny and totally realistic and definitely not a Kamala supporter. And she obviously hasn't been listening to the speeches and rallies and townhalls for the last three months. Kamila hasn't been 'namecalling'. She's been quoting various Republican officials who have facts on their side and proof that Trump is losing it and IS a fascist and definitely isn't capable of being the US president. Trump is the "namecaller". It's absolutely disgusting what he's been calling Kamela at his rallies and events. The insults he's throwing at her are vile and ugly and racist and misogynistic and that woman perched on the stage and called their behaviour equal when it absolutely isn't. She's a Trumper through and through.

Um, isn't this supposed to be the forum for The Daily Show?

They were pretty bad. None of them would have made my list but different people appeal to different souls. I don't understand why Devin is getting all the shit. A great number of the bachelors or bachelorettes haven't made it to TheFinalRose show so why is Devin being blamed for it. Jen and all her previous toxic boyfriends never figured love out and, in fact, Jen didn't even want Devin - she wanted Marcus - so she's hardly in a favourable position to pile all the blame on him. I'm just glad this season is over. It was one of the worst ones in the history of Bachelor/ette.

The amount of steroid found in Sinner's urine was minuscule, like how could they even measure such a tiny amount. According to the NYT, "detected a metabolite of clostebol. The first sample was recorded at 76pg (picograms) per millilitre. The second was recorded at 86pg per millitire. One picogram is equal to one trillionth of a gram." That's certainly not enough to have any affect on Sinner's performance so it's not at all surprising that the penalty was reversed. I'm all for comprehensive and effective drug testing of all the tennis players but there should be reasonable rules to the whole system, like the amount of substance be enough to actually make a difference to the player's performance. Sinner is going to have this hanging over his head for the rest of his career and that's not fair. Plus, it's my understanding that this clostebol is an ordinary salve sold over the counter, much like the tubes of Polysporin that are sold in N American stores. We're really not talking about a doping scandal here. At least we shouldn't be.

This whole crew is a bunch of dummies, and I don't find any of them likeable either so the show this year is a sorry mess. I think they've only figured out who one person's relative was and everyone else has gotten booted because they were pathetic guessers. Previous years it was at least interesting to hear them talking relatively intelligently about the clues and to guess along with them.

All Episodes Talk: TRMS 2023 - 2024 Season
shok replied to tessaray's topic in The Rachel Maddow Show
Totally disagree with you, and that's not quite what Mark Elias said. Yes, of course they're aware of the shit that's going on but two things - one; the Republicans were flying by the seat of their pants in 2020 so they got nowhere in the courts, but this year, their legal team has been working on their scam for four years and they're ready with their suits and court cases now - and two; the courts and the law can't come down on the local folks because there are no laws to come down on them with. No congress ever imagined the band of crooks that Trump would bring with him so no laws were ever enacted that these con artists can be charged with. In future, a Democratic congress can hopefully pass some bills to protect the vote better but for now, it's up in the air what can be done. -

Just very briefly, she went into a lot of detail about how Trump and the Republicans are 'fixing' (and have fixed) the local election boards so that the actual votes won't ever matter - the Republicans on the boards will never certify the results if the Dems get more votes. -

And if you missed last night's show, do some digging around the internet to see if you can find a rerun. You won't get any sleep after watching it but it's also a situation/story that everyone should see/read. 😬🥴😵
