It's the location that's surprising.

He asked that the state GOP revoke their endorsement of him. That's something.
His previous comments imply some internalized homophobia, but this recent line of rhetoric from the Colorado GOP is obviously eliminationist, and he seems to have realized it. Maybe it leads to him more closely examining his previous attitudes, maybe it doesn't.
I'm not saying he's like, a good dude. Just worth noting that he found a line he wouldn't cross.
You should just read what the Republicans will do if Trump is reelected.
They've published their plans, and I want exactly zero of any of the "policy" they plan on implementing.
I'm not sure what this is supposed to mean. How do you train a dog to be a therapy dog for another animal?
These dogs are companion animals for the cheetahs. They grow up together, and share a strong bond because they think of themselves as litter mates. They end up well trained, sure, because they live around staff at zoos who are professional animal handlers, but the relationship between the animals is pretty much the same as two puppies or two cheetahs that were raised together; if you adopted two puppies from different litters the same week, and raised them together, would you think of one of them as a therapy dog for the other?
You can also draw a straight line between "embryos are children" and "all embryos must be implanted."
Just wait till you learn about John Kellogg! He had some fun ideas.
When you read this comic, it makes you realize that it shouldn't have been surprising that Bill Waterston retired the strip suddenly and moved to a remote cabin in the middle of nowhere to paint watercolor landscapes.
I bartend. I was working on Easter, and one of our semi regulars came in with a guy that she was obviously on a drink date with. They'd been at at least one other bar before they came in; they'd had a couple drinks, but weren't past maybe tipsy.
At one point, she mentioned that the reason the last place they'd been to was slow was likely that it happened to be Easter. At the mention of the word the guy interrupted with,
"I REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT ANY POLITICS OR RELIGION!!"
To me this was a sign that this dude cared very much about religion and politics, but just like how scientologists don't drop the Xenu shit on you right away, he wanted to wait until any prospective partner was in too deep before revealing how abhorrent his views are.
That regular isn't my favorite person, but I was proud of her for pretty much ending that date after that.
Why are all those people giving Reddit money by buying awards for that post?
I think that a lot of those people likely live in a very car dependent, suburban area, and therefore don't get any regular interaction with people outside of their immediate family.
I live in a city, so I have regular infractions with people that I know when I'm out and about: I pop into the butcher shop, coffee shop or green grocer and talk to the employees I know. I walk the dog, and run into friends and acquaintances that live the next neighborhood over, etc. People in rural areas usually have similar sorts of relationships with people in the area.
Contrast that with the suburbs, where neighbors may know each other to say hello to, but not much past that, and it's hard to build any kind of relationship with the barista at the drive-through Starbucks or any employees at the local Kroger superstore.
