  Tron Ares looks good. Strong Diverse Female Character seems particularly compelling.

  Better than the alternative
  H Horace

  When Bill Murray read the book Woodward wrote about his friend John Belushi, his immediate reaction was that Nixon was set up. Simply because Woodward got so many things so very wrong, and was just pushing his chosen narrative.

  I don't mean to impugn Ax's journalistic integrity by comparing him to Woodward.

  Imagine if Woodward and Bernstein had backed off because they were scared of a setup.

  @LuFins-Dad said in Better than the alternative:

  Is this thread the appropriate location to announce that I have reconsidered my position about Trump being better than the alternative?

  I think Ax deserves that scoop. He's been pounding the pavement on that story for some time.

  Oh yeah, so cool.

  Jen Rubin and Keith Olbermann are my favorite cool kids.

  I find them to be useless midwits. But I have the problem where I only see their work when it goes viral and that’s usually when they’re at their worst.

  I bet you didn't see Olbermann's take on Kirk's assassin. That the motivation wasn't political, but rather, strictly personal, because Kirk said mean things about trans people, and the assassin's significant other was trans.

  It probably didn't go viral, because that's his normal content, not extreme. Though I guess it went viral enough that I saw it. I just assume it didn't pop up in your x feed.

  So you get someone who is performing worse? Browning was starting to show his old form toward the end of the Detroit game. We've also been playing very tough defenses.

  NPR said he's already complained that they put politics ahead of peace by not choosing him. Wanker.
