"When you ride with Donald Trump on damn near everything for four years, I don't think you can be considered a hero."

Remember, Ana Navarro is the RepubliKKKan strategist who, in 2020, said she would vote for a potted plant before she voted for Elizabeth Warren —so does Vote Blue No Matter Who™ only count when it’s a GOP-lite, conservative “Democrat”?

It’s funny how centrists and neoliberals are sO hyped to cape for Liz Cheney, but wouldn’t piss on Bernie Sanders or AOC if they were on fire. Liz Cheney repeats the Republican lie that abortion is “murdering babies after they are born;” Cheney voted against the John Lewis Voting Rights Act; Cheney publicly sold out her own sister and used her wedding to boost her first campaign, against marriage equality; Cheney voted with Trump most of the time; and Cheney cheerfully endorsed the torture of Muslim prisoners at Abu Ghraib.

Jesus Christ. Liz Cheney is NOT a good person.

Not even a little bit.

YES, we can all be happy that Cheney is grinding an axe on Donald Trump. And YES, we can be glad it might finally cause Trump to be held accountable. But that’s where tf it stops. Please stop gassing her up and calling her brave. She isn’t. There is literally a civil war going on inside the Republican Party. Trumpublicans vs the DeSantis wing of the party. Liz simply picked a side. And when November rolls around, she is going to vote for whoever the anti-choice, forced birthers run in the 2022 midterms, and then she will vote Republican in 2024. Because she is still a RepubliKKKan.

Some people claim this closeted actor on reddit was Chris Evans

In the reddit post called

"Being an extremely well-known yet closeted American film actor.",

he allgedly said that he was adviced to come out when his career starts to dwindle. So I guess now is the time? And for the people who are still doubting me. If he were truly in love with the Portuguese actress, why fake a marriage? Why not just be open about that immigration law takes time and they can't marry yet because it would mean that she has to stay in the US for months, limiting her career (or he for months in Portugal... which neither of them did). Shouldn't be a problem, you know? Of course the sexist women of The View, who are part of the industry and know that this is fake PR, asked him when he is about to have kids. Based on his reply he wasn't all to enthusiastic about that topic (No surprises here. Imagine having a kid with your Hollywood beard like Bradley C.) But for a second, imagine the roles reversed. Implying a woman can only have a fulfilled marriage when she has kids. I thought the hosts of The View were feminists??? #DoubleStandards It is nonsensical what he is doing right now, evidenced by the fact that dog food gets more attention from him than his alleged wife and he still loses followers on instagram all the time. It just simply shows that people aren't interested seeing him married to a woman. #EternalBachelorChris

“Well, [learning history] should make you feel bad. But it’s important that it makes you feel bad.”

“I don’t think it should make you feel bad. I don’t think a white child that had nothing to do with slavery should feel bad about slavery. I think we need to learn history so we don’t repeat the same mistakes about history.”

For those interested, that's Sara Haines and Ana Navarro, respectively, from The View and, yeah, I think they're both right.

On the one hand, bad things happened in history and everyone should learn about them. If you don't feel bad about bad things that happened, it probably means you didn't learn the lessons from them.

On the other hand, no child should feel personally bad about something they had nothing to do with. No child in a classroom today is responsible for the slavery of the 1800s, the Segregation of the 1900s, or police brutality today.

Here's the thing, though, I don't think either of those hosts (or just about anyone else for that matter) would disagree with either of those two statements. The reason we are disagreeing has more to do with the imprecise language we're using to discuss the issue and a refusal to clarify.

And it's important that we do clarify, because the people who really don't want you to learn the lessons of history so that they can repeat it are taking full advantage of that ambiguity. Racists all over the country are going to school board meetings and taking control of educational curriculum in conservative states talking about how history shouldn't be taught in a way that makes kids "feel bad". They mean the first quote up there, but they want you to think they mean the second.

Don't be taken in by the "debate". No kid should feel personally bad about history they didn't participate in, but no one who learns actual history should be uniformly proud of everything that their country, race, religion, or any other identifier has done.

Understanding the bad parts of history is the first step to fixing the effects that they're still having here in the present, and the people who want racism to continue are fighting that tooth and nail.

Darren talks about "American Buffalo" on The View

'The View' jokes about bored Ben Affleck at the Grammys: 'J.Lo should have brought her mom'.

My theme for this year's DRAWgust was inspired by actor Jim Carrey.

Back  in 2019 Jim Carrey drew caricatures of sleazy politicians (yes I realize that's redundant) so I decided to draw caricatures of sleazy hollywood celebrities (yes I realize that's redundant), since ONE GOOD TURN DESERVES ANOTHER, right?

Day 7: The women of The View

(Joy Behar, Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Ana Navarro)

Two forms of grief.

Soy Luna Ep 32-51 Thoughts

Yeah, I really am getting through this show fast. I used the 4 days I had off this week to binge the show lol. I normally have 3 days off, but I took one day of vacation because I was exhausted. I don't have any normal hobbies because I work nights, so I'm stuck with media consumption and cooking for the most part.

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT KISS, MATTEO? It's not even a good "surprise kiss". Luna looked traumatized and was clearly angry afterwards. Compare it to Violetta and Leon where she was very happy it happened, and it's insane how they want us to root for Matteo. I can tell they're trying to tone him down, but I still don't like him. The whole bravado aspect of his personality is tiresome and not cute or charming

Simon contradicted himself with the "you won't lose me, Luna" after seeing the kiss. But I'll cut him a break bc it's tough to be friends with people you have feelings for, especially when you're only like 18. His new GF, Daniella, doesn't seem like a good person though, sadly. I hope his future relationships are much better

Sharon Benson is a horrible person, and I genuinely feel bad for Ambar for the absence of any parental love or concern in her life. It's clear Ambar sabotages Luna because she envies her and sees her as someone who gets/has everything she (Ambar) wants. Ambar's schemes are way less ludicrous and more believable than Ludmilla's.

Gaston having a bunch of girls chase after him is honestly super believable and funny tbh. He actually reminds me of one dude I knew who was really well-liked for being handsome and smart in high school. Also, one of the few popular people I knew who didn't post everything on IG and judge others based on that

Tino and Cato's idiocy is annoying, I've said this already. But I want to see more of the side characters who are actually interesting. I will give Soy Luna credit that it gives the side characters more plotlines than Violetta seemingly

I do not have strong feelings on Jim and Nico, but I can kind of buy it. Jim still has more chemistry with Yam.

Yam, on the other hand, I cannot see as being into Ramiro. Sorry, but she gives off 100% lesbian vibes. No way she's into men lol. Jim I can see being bi, but no way I see that with Yam.

Ricardo and Tamara I just do not see working out, but it sucks that Tamara's ex won't respect their relationship and give them space. I can already tell they're trying to set him up with Mora for the future with them having the whole gaming interest in common

It's realistic but also kinda sad how Nina's whole relationship with Xavi fizzled out the moment they could only talk online, but it reminded me a lot of how many friendships I've had online fizzle out

And now I have to sleep and prep for work tomorrow night, it's going to be a long week.
