Good for the woman who was attacked to maintain composure. That must have been really hard. From the article:

Spring said she understood it was critical that she remained composed even while being attacked.   

"I wanted to make sure I acted appropriately so that I could keep my job because the script could have been flipped at any time if I had retaliated," Spring said

It’s so heartbreaking that the bolded part is systemic racism. Like she can’t defend herself because that terrible white woman would have pretended to be the victim? Fuck all of that and fuck that white girl.

I wish they would stop this:

ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders affecting children and young adults, with about 10% of young people between the ages of 3 and 17 diagnosed with the condition.

What about women and inattentives who are usually diagnosed way into adulthood???

This makes it sound curable, temporary or like it only impacts young people.

Isn’t it funny how the public servant basically manifested the home for her because she probably has a great lawsuit now?

Notice how Trump dilutes and distorts the meaning of words on purpose so they don’t hit as hard when used toward him. I find it terrifying that he’s openly calling everyone a fascist. He’s being honest about his true intentions, America.

When someone tells you who they are, believe them!!!

It’s a craven, hollow, classless stunt on the part of Pierre. I just saw on CBC that he’s fundraising off of it already? I don’t understand how people watch this guy and want to vote for him. He seems like such a scam artist.

You’re missing that the special counsel saying this was extremely editorialized, unprofessional, and dubious at best. This is the counsel’s opinion without facts to back it up.

Whereas Trump falling asleep actually happened without editorializing. NYT is just reporting facts.

It’s a lot of processed bread / carb products and very little protein.

Jon Stewart is such a pro. He’s at the top of his game, even still. He’s just so far above other political commentators it’s beautiful to watch.

And if Colbert makes an appearance this season I will scream like Flanders at those purple drapes.

People just don’t want to spend what little time we have on this earth commuting, paying $10 for a shitty Subway sandwich for lunch, and listening to Elderly Manager Brian talk about his glory days to a captive audience.

There’s a concept that we studied in literature in University about never truly being able to go home again after you grow up. We were reading an Alice Munro short story collection but Tom Wolfe famously wrote about the topic.

Elections don’t work for Republicans, because we’re the first generation to be royally fucked and we’re pissed off. Boomers would be pissed too if they were on the bottom of the capitalism pyramid scheme.

This feels like it was written by someone who has never been on Lemmy because that has not been my experience at all.

Reddit is fucking full of bots astroturfing right wing political nonsense and we’re not getting that on Lemmy because those instances are often defederated.

Or, you know, he’s one of those guys who signed up for world when he should have gone to exploding heads.
