i thought "honer" was even crazier than that

i mean, a lot of factors go into whether someone is a good speller, i wouldn't judge him too hard on that if he was otherwise a reasonable dude but

spirited ai weiwei (Treeship), Friday, 26 February 2016 23:35 (eight years ago) link

I use "honer" in Scrabble. It's a valid word, and I only use valid words--I'm an honerable person.

clemenza, Friday, 26 February 2016 23:36 (eight years ago) link

as a an awful speller honer is more reasonable than chocked to me cause honor is kinda a weird word but choked is standard

I haven't seen the full list of tweets. Obviously, rather embarrassing--but I'd estimate it's only the 53rd most embarrassing thing about him, at worst.

hard to reconcile that fuzzy profile of hillary clinton with her recurring enthusiasm for bombing people and starting wars

i was so delighted when i read 'palimpsest' and he offhandedly mentions leslie neilsen as the 'star of the wonderful naked gun movies' or something

Q: What do you like about Hollywood?

A: The Zucker brothers. They are superb--the Michelangelos of our culture. Watch "Airplane!" or "Naked Gun"--Leslie Nielsen is the greatest American actor ever to come out of Canada. I also worship Mr. (Jim) Abrahams, particularly for "Hot Shots!" But, as you can see, I'm a highbrow intellectual, so what do I know?

Haha, I was super confused until I found out there are TWO Jon Favreaus.

As first lady, Hillary spoke about the need for “a new ethos of individual responsibility,” “a great renaissance of caring in this country,” and “going back and actually living by the Golden Rule.”

and then she voted for the Iraq War but let's not bring that up at all...

Bill Maher is a fucking Muslim-blood-lusting, vaccine-paranoiac "libertarian" who voted for Bob Dole in '96; i wouldn't even smear liberals by labeling him one.

I am not clicking on any articles when no one read the two misandry-choked Hillary jeremiads I posted.

i, too, have heard that she is a good person who does care. i really like her. i know i'm the odd one out around here for not rolling my eyes and assuming everything she says is insincere but that's cool, just wanted to put it out there that i admire her a lot in fact

This discussion of Hillary and the article's assertion "She cares." reminds me of the famous quote from George Bush the Elder in 1992:

"Don't cry for me, Argentina. Message: I care."

With daria-g, I also think HRC cares about a variety of issues associated with liberal domestic policies, such as education, voting rights, poverty, and such. She'd do what she could to support enlightened policies regarding these issues. I do get the impression that she will back down on them more quickly than Bernie, because "once burned, twice shy" and she's been burned more than once.

i agree w/ you, daria and i liked that daily beast article

Mordy, Saturday, 27 February 2016 01:44 (eight years ago) link

for me shes an avatar of the disastrous neoliberal phase of the democratic party, im open to the idea that that may be somewhat unfair or lacking in nuance, but also imo she lacks political vision which is a problem, im not too concerned with the insincere affect other than it maybe makes it more likely that a republican cld win the presidency

fwiw i suspect voting for her is likely the right thing to do in that it will produce better outcomes but im gonna vote bernie anyway since clintons winning and yolo

lag∞n, Saturday, 27 February 2016 01:50 (eight years ago) link

Goon otm, that's also my perspective basically. Although I assume she will govern in a less objectionable way than her husband did, because the party's priorities and even its constituency has changed over the past twenty years
