I feel like there is currently an unseen magical chest full of oppo sitting in Queens headquarters and she will trickle out one or more thing per week. If she dropped it all at once, you would be shell shocked. Look at Trump and just the things he's said in the last three days. Now think about the fact that he has been a public figure for more than 20 years, mostly flying under the radar. Homersimpsondrool.gif indeed.
Fun fact, the candidate most likely to be the VP is in the video.

That's how I'd play it.
The ABC news interview of him talking about women working and them needing to cook really sealed the deal for me. He has to have hours of damning video that would be most effectively trickled out one video a week while constantly hitting him for being erratic and unstable. Every time he responds, he plays into the narrative of being unstable.
Never thought I would be listening to an artist named Alaska Thunderfuck, but here we are. Not too bad, actually.
These videos won't make me gay, will they? Like I fucked and was fucked by several guys in the past, but I don't even really consider myself anything but straight because I've never really had an interest in dating or being in a relationship with another man.

Alaska's album is amazing. It's called Anus. It's genuinely interesting music, not your normal drag fare. And if you think you're straight, you're straight. Labels are just self-concept anyway. I wouldn't worry about it. But, no, it won't turn you gay.
Also, what's the over/under on queen rehashing the "18 million cracks in the glass ceiling" line on Tuesday? I think she brings it up. I hope she does, anyway.

But Bernie asked them not to....
(Also, Bo Burnham's new special on Netflix is deep as fuck...seriously. Watch it.It's basically an hour long avant-garde exploration of how entertainment is fleeting.)
Oh, shit. I didn't even know he had anything new coming out. This song from his last special was dank as fuck, IMO.

So, basically like any conversation I have with anyone under the age of 25? Ya'll bitches are too young. Fuck.
Kidding. I <3 you all.I need to meet you some day so I can pinch your cheek because you're just adorable. Like your mother must have infinite patience. I like Bo, his wordcraft is pretty gewd, but then again, I'm a straight white mail and can appreciate this:

which ironically has Bo Burnham in the video. Saw Watsky live, can argue he's sexist etc.

Al Gore still hasn't endorsed Clinton, damn lol. Must have really butt heads in the White House.

The first song in his new special is about straight, white men.
Also, ARG did a poll of Cali. I don't know if it was posted. It's totally weird....
Queen 48
Bernie 47
http://americanresearchgroup.com/pres2016/primary/dem/cadem.html
The reason I say it looks weird is the early voting number is more heavily Bernie than anything we've seen, but the same day voting is more heavily Queen. I know they're shit tier, but I was posting it anyway.
I'm 29. 30 is gay death, though...
I thought he was playing the elder party statesman role? But, ya, no, I don't think they like each other that much.

He didn't endorse in 2008 until Clinton dropped out, either.
Maybe he feels his position as a former VP means he should stay out of the primaries until they're fully shaken out? I saw he endorsed Dean in 03 though so whatever.
I'm going to guess 54-46 in California for Queen. I forget what I said earlier. NJ will be "stop, he's already dead" territory though.

Man, I was looking over some states...Bernie got the shit kicked out of him in Florida. I said damn. Just crazy. But all those huge margins will mean nothing if he wins California by 1 vote because MOMENTUM!?
Ugh, come on Tuesday...PLEASE let them call her the nominee immediately when NJ closes.

I just bought a 3DO and Road Rash on Ebay because the copy of Road Rash 2 for Genesis I got earlier isn't good enough. This is what jobs in policy lead to. I have bought a Genesis and clear OG Gameboy in the last week and just got a 3DO (never had or wanted one). First world money problems, etc.

Jelly. I spent like $200 on PSN/Xbox One games for no reason at all. I have to be careful. I kinda quit one of my jobs, but it was for the best. Kinda gutting my income a bit to try and do my own thing for a while. Still...scary as hell. (Plus, I've decided I'm going for my Masters....so I had to cut one job somewhere...)

Dumb as shit Socialists on Twitter are saying that Socialists getting suspended from work for tweeting that more people should assault Trump supporters is the new McCarthyism.
I mean... Glenn Beck got suspended for letting one of his callers entertain the idea of killing Trump, but sure, keep up this personality disorder.

Calling for Trump's assassination is actually far more defensible as a political idea than calling for assaulting Trump's supporters randomly if you believe Trump is the next Hitler. One would actually help stop Trump from winning the nomination.
Would Dumb-As-Shit-Socialist-Twitter be mad if an employee was suspended for encouraging people to kill Trump?

I saw you mention earlier that you might go back for a Masters, eventually? What field? I got insanely lucky to be where I am now by starting with HP when they were doing enterprise contract work with the state in 2009. I got into state employment in 2011 and managed to get a SNAP program and policy analyst job in November of last year because of the work I had done with other people internally on our able bodied adult population. I now work with 3 ladies that have a masters (MPA), one lawyer, and two bachelor degrees in human services programs (our team is six women and me
). I have no college degree and make around the same as them. I work with SNAP policy and I love it. SNAP in 2015 issued over $1 billion in benefit dollars in our state. There are a ton of things we are working on and the improving economy has definitely impacted our population.
I feel a great sense of pride that I write the rules and policy for SNAP in our state. I am currently leading a project that will create at least one new client notice and modify two.

No. Neither is more or less defensible. They're both totally unacceptable on any level.

English. I was going to get my MFA in Creative Writing, but I decided to just get my Masters in English. That way, I can teach at the community college level if I want to. I'm like 99% sure I want to teach anyway, even if it's at just the secondary level. My mom was a teacher, and I love the schedule. Plus, I'm loving teaching this writing class this summer. The kids are great, and I have a ton of fun doing it. I know it's hard, it doesn't pay well...but....I think I'd be happy doing it. I'm sick of doing things that don't make a damn bit of difference. Seriously. The shit I do is pointless to the 9th degree.
I had also toyed with a MSW, but...uh. Idk. English is easy, and I do have a passion for it. So, why not? Plus, I can get a ton of loan forgiveness if I teach...and I have quite a bit of loan debt. Not insane, but definitely enough that I'm worried about it.

Of course they're unacceptable. I'm just saying that Dumb-As-Shit-Socialist-Twitter is defending a Vox editor's call to randomly assault Trump supporters so I'm wondering if Dumb-As-Shit-Socialist-Twitter would defend a liberal editor that advocated for people to go out and murder Trump.
I think that anyone here that works in city, county, state, or federal government can agree:
There is nothing better than shitting on the taxpayer dollar. I am a state employee, but since the administrative dollars for the program for which I am a program and policy analyst are 50% federally funded, the entire country pays my salary. When I shit, all of you are paying me to shit.
I just wanted to let PoliGAF know that. I put in some goddamn hard work on my shits an am extremely proud of them. I hope you can all be proud of them, as well.

This sounds great. I would simply caution about blowing a ton of money that has no real benefit. I have no idea if that is true, so feel free to ignore, but if you think the skills you may learn or the salary bonus you might obtain is not worth the dollars you might spend, maybe don't bother? I do the same work as people who went to school for 6+ years and we are on equal footing (I have no college degree). This isn't basic work, either. I lead projects of more than a dozen people, work with contractors, deal with millions in state funding, answer policy questions for people more educated than me, and make decisions that impact several hundred thousand people on a daily basis. If you can learn the skills on your own, do it that way.

Bobby Jindal would have won the nomination if he had just proposed eliminating all government building bathrooms so that people couldn't shit on tax payer dollars.

Not to go completely off topic....
I could probably teach with just my Bachelors, but I really want a Masters for *me* more than anything else. Plus, if I do want to teach at a higher level, I could.

Ali dies, Hillary is going to be the president. Can this year be over already
Lmao, Donald Trump says: 'Look at my African-American over here'

This sounds like me. I fucked around a lot in my early 20's I know I'm smart. I wouldn't have my job if I wasn't. I really want the same degree as three of my coworkers (including my supervisor). A Masters in Public Administration would be amazing and could teach me sooooo much. Sadly, I would need to attend school for six years, full time, to get that degree. I negotiated my salary and make the almost the same as my coworkers. I also am content where I am and adore and love my job. Why would I want to kill myself for the next six years with no benefit (state employment doesn't give raises in Wisconsin, you need to go to a new job or the private sector). What really is the benefit of going around a hundred thousand in debt for no increased money?
Ali dying, as much as I love boxing isn't anything surprising, the man hasn't been in a good way for a while now.
Dude nearly kicked the bucket in 2014 due to pneumonia. Parkinsons on top of all his other issues. Dude just went out the way a lot of old heavyweight boxers of the era went. Broken.
Pretty sure Joe Frazier is ready to kick his ass out there somewhere right now.
That Trump reply to the foreign policy bit is absolutely ridiculous btw. Surprising to see him getting absolutely shit on from all sides over it. General is gonna be brutal for this man.

I guess the benefit would be that in a scenario where you lose this job you'd be at a disadvantage against resumes with degrees because many hiring managers use them as a baseline for even reviewing the resume.
