Im seriously straining here. Whats a conservative english degree look like? Do they just read shakespeare in ever class and say "isnt this good? See that rhyme? Those are good rhymes!" A conservative biology degree cant extend past high school survey classes because theres literally nothing there for to explore except some nebulous "can we cure cancer with better diet and multivitamins" gestures. A statistics degree past a bell curve is frightening for them. All that really comes to mind is MBAs and the extremely weird econ profs they already install in universities through large donations and anti-regulation speaking tours
You haven't read Shakespeare eh? To bait fish withal; if it will feed nothing else, it will feed my revenge. He hath disgraced me and hindered me half a million, laughed at my losses, 55 mocked at my gains, scorned my nation, thwarted my bargains, cooled my friends, heated mine enemies— and what’s his reason? I am a Jew. Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, p. 99 senses, affections, passions? Fed with the 60 same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer as a Christian is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you 65 poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? If we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. If a Jew wrong a Christian, what is his humility? Revenge. If a Christian wrong a Jew, what should his sufferance be by Christian 70 example? Why, revenge! The villainy you teach me I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction.
Uhh that’s why I literally wrote “just about everyone” and not everyone. The majority were saying she was running a great campaign but yes some weren’t.
Shakespeare is def not conservative. It’d have to be some brutally boring Victorian shit. Literature in general has a left bias over history
Ya tbh I had that in mind. Not that it didn’t gain any votes just that Trump still won pretty soundly with almost no ground game and gop state parties in financial ruin. Gotta hand it to RNC co chair Lara Trump. What can’t she do?!
Can't wait for the folks who are so fucking stupid they thought egg prices were worth fascism have to pay 20$ for eggs and start talking murdering trans people because it's their fault.
it’s literally why I switched from English Lit to American Lit. I could deal with some but fuck there was shit I just couldn’t get over. Don’t try and tell me the Miller’s Tale and the Wife of Bath’s Tale are porn.

Find it kind of funny that we humans try to find a simple solution for everything "if Harris simply would have done X, she would have won!" when in reality she did a to to trim the margins but at the end of the day the race wasn't close. Also find it funny to be like "she should have just separated from Biden further!" lol how would that look? "Biden, HATE THE GUY, Hardly even know him, but our limited interactions have been tragic, GUY STINKS!!" I'm sure her acting like she is nothing like the president she serves under would have rang quite authentic!
I agree about being surprised the internal polls never had her ahead. I listened to her a lot and she always made sure to mention that it was going to be close and won by small margins. I never doubted that because Biden only won by small margins. I grew up in Alabama, so sometimes I have a tendency to write off anything as just being in that red bubble and assuming its different in places like Michigan or Wisconsin. I can only go by what my eyes see where I live now in GA, and it seemed like locally there was good work being done and the demand for any events involving her was really high. I dont know anymore
Ok but why does he eat while doing a show? I've seen him like 4 or 5 times and he's always eating or slurping down a bowl of cereal or some shit.
AJ is an example of a comic willing to attack all subjects in a way that renders him borderline uncancellable. I think it was Sam Morrill that said (on a pod) that it's not that you cannot make a trans joke but (a) it cant be cruel and (b) it must be funny. Dave's trans jokes always fail one or both of those requirements. ALWAYS
I have one that I feel meets both requirements. It's silly and not hateful at all. Some may argue with point b, but I love dumb puns.
Saw an article about prices of thanksgiving staples being down. People not hesitant about spending for turkey day. Consumer sentiment is high. Thanks president T! Life is already better.
Can’t wait for all the Trump dick suckers to bitch and moan that a billionaire like Pritzker can’t relate to them.
