LGBT Themes, Stories And Characters On TV
Palimelon replied to maraleia's topic in Everything Else TV
The series is inspired by the life of the late and great Dr. Oliver Sacks. Look him up if you haven't, he had a very interesting and fascinating life, not to mention a very productive one, though not without some sadness. At least he finally found love late in his life, at the age of 77, though sadly he found out he had terminal cancer a few months after he finally decided to come out, at the age of 81. He was the guy who wrote the book Awakenings on which the movie was based, with Robin Williams' character based on him as well. -
By that logic, Illinois should have gone to Trump, since even though more people in that state voted for Harris, more of the map of Illinois is red than it is blue. Not just from Trump, but from his influence. We've already seen that in places like Hungary, Italy, etc, where people are campaigning and winning on demonizing people who are "the other", and it's emboldened the right even more in places like France. Now granted, the left deserves some blame by moving further to the center on many issues as well, but it isn't just America that is in a "post-Trump" era, but many parts of the world as well. Places like Canada are moving that way as well, sadly.

Call The Waaaaambulance: Favorite Crying Moments On TV

Speaking of the Musk, remember how Trump scared all those autoworkers in Michigan about how the Dems were going to destroy their jobs by wanting everyone to get electric cars? And then Trump hooked up with the guy who owns the world's largest manufacturer of electric cars? What was that guy's name...

JD Vance is no pauper − he’s a classic example of ‘poornography,’ in which the rich try to speak on behalf of the poor. J.D. Vance’s Stolen Valor: ‘He Puts on Poverty Like You Put on Makeup’. The Myth that J.D. Vance Bootstrapped His Way to the Top.

But the problem is you! You need to be less woke and sensitive and politically correct and gosh darn it why can't people say what they want, right, Maureen Dowd?

Trump was an idiot. Everyone knows you have to make a bleach-Dettol-Mr. Clean cocktail to stop you from getting COVID. C'mon now, that is a rude thing to say. To overflowing ashtrays.

Given that Trump is (probably) offering cabinet positions to Musk and RFK Jr, maybe Harris should have done the same to Beyonce and Taylor Swift? "Ok, Beyonce, you can be secretary of education, Swift, you're in transport."

I mean, how many voters can afford a Tesla?

Or the fact that a man even richer than Trump -why, the richest man in the world - endorsed him.

And lower eggs prices too! Don't forget lower egg prices.

Do they live anywhere near one of the cities that has a HW show? Because I can imagine Andy Cohen just got a casting erection and he doesn't know why.- 114 replies

Some more food for thought: White noise: why hatred of Donald Trump fuels his success as much as his supporters’ love. Think you know how bad Trump unleashed will be? Look at the evidence: it will be even worse. ‘They say Democrats look down on me’: Trump win spurred by populist backlash.

I am just giving my opinion to subjects that were brought up. I'm not sure why I have to change my views and responses. Which is what we are doing. If some of the issues as it relates to the election don't appeal to you, or if views expressed aren't what you are expecting, then...sorry?

What exactly is it that you are trying to change my mind about? That Trump isn't a vile piece of garbage? That this is world we live in? We all know this is the world we live in, and some of us aren't ok with this being the world we live in. We want a better world. His personality is driving his policy. That's the problem. This isn't a case of, saying (just as one example), "I don't believe in gay marriage on a personal level, but whatever, if people want it, they can have it", this is him fueling anti-queer legislation coming from a position of hate. Whether it's coming from his own actual views or just doing what his supporters want because he knows he has to if he wants to stay in power, the personality he projects is leading to harmful policies for some people. You can say whatever you want about her. I'm not her biggest fan, I'll cop to that, but she is a much better person than he is. Even if that is a very low bar to clear, she clears it rather well. That was me giving my opinion to something someone else said. Also, to quote something someone else said:

Milestone Moments: All The Celebrity Vitals

Nobody is saying we need to live an wold of innocence. But being polite and inclusive should be the norm. Not saying hateful things that target minorities and other disenfranchised people shouldn't be the norm. And as for those traits having nothing to do with politics, Mango Mussolini's political politics ARE being fueled by those personality traits. Being a racist isn't a personality trait. That's a choice to be an a-hole. Being a homophobe isn't a personality trait. That's a choice to be an a-hole. Being a misogynist isn't a personality trait. That's a choice to be an a-hole. Being a xenophobe isn't a personality trait. That's a choice to an a-hole. If those are the messages that people like, then what kind of a society is that? One built on hate? Of wanting people who aren't you to be second class citizens? For some people to have more rights than others?

They put up with him out of self-preservation. They saw what happened to members like Liz Chency. They saw how even though the party seemed to turn away from Trump after the 2020 election and Jan 6th, the people did not. If anything, the flocked to him with even more loyalty, in bigger numbers. His cult of personality is so strong the GOP is now the Cult of MAGA. They were scared that if Trump started his own party, it would break the GOP, and in the end, they called Trump's bluff. I am sure there are many in the Republican party who can't stand the man. But we have seen even his own rivals in the party - people who criticized him, insulted him, tried to wrestle control of the party away from him - all eventually either bend the knee and endorse him, or are now quietly keeping their opinions of him to themselves. However many "Never Trumpers" there were in the past, after the recent election, their numbers will probably dwindle even more. Though I am sure if Trump tanks the economy even more and loses some support, we will be hearing "I told you so!" from some of them.

The UK had it until late 1982. Many countries in the Americas also have it, along with a few other countries in other parts of the world.

That's not hatred, that's love! We dumb libs just don't get it. We're just too woke to recognize it.

Not true. Atlanta had many couples trips and none of the women who were single during those seasons were excluded.
