Only tangentially. Nothing she’s done or is known for (other than the ‘Old-School-Country Songbird look) has any real bearing on what the LaPierre’s are pulling.

I knew which chair before the picture loaded. They are uncomfortable as fuck and should be launched into the sun.

This is every goddamn brewery/brew-pub in San Diego. I’m not old (34 but some days I feel 20 years older than that) but I like a comfortable chair with a back on it. If it’s not these awful metal chairs with a rickety table, it’s a picnic table, or a high-top with awful metal bar-stools.  Even the newer places that…

I’m in my Old Navy cheap ass tank top and yoga pants putting off getting on the exercise bike.

She looks like the unholy spawn of Rachel Ray and Kimberly Guilfoyle. And for that much money, you would think the results would have been better. Her hair and makeup look like she did it herself. 

Thing I didn't think about until now: acting as a hair and makeup artist is a super easy front for money laundering.

Maybe she’s had work done like maybe grass is green.

Arguably that’s what they’re going for. It’s not like any of us glamorous coastal elites* are the NRA’s target (ha) audience.

Ashley, I'm really glad you clarified this woman is his wife in the headline because she looks like she could be his daughter.

and yet her hair looks like every middle aged suburban wife

I’m getting very psyched! We have to swing the Senate, too, then get in someone who will blow up the filibuster. Harry Reid is no slouch, and if he says it’s a good idea, I believe him. Plus, if you really want to filibuster, you should have to put on an adult diaper and your comfiest shoes an stand there for hours…

I think he’s trying to use state as in “state of being.”

It means the mental capacity of the President of the United States, which was never that high to begin with, is diminishing daily due to a combination of age, stress, and very possibly dementia. And, that in spite of this fact which is on clear display for the world to see, approximately 40% of voters will support him…

Thank you for your unhinged response, snowflake, because I now realize my comment needed a trigger warning.

Press Secretary: It is categorically untrue that the President is doing or has done Thing X.

Trump: *does Thing X*

Press Secretary: There was no proof that the President was doing Thing X at the time I said it was categorically untrue that he was doing Thing X, therefore I didn’t lie, really.

Everyone Else: Is it really…

I remember watching footage of the ride before it opened and thinking nope nope nope. Granted, I’m not a huge fan of those kinds of water rides with big drops, so I wouldn’t have ridden it anyways. But the video of the rafts flying off the track was just unbelievable.

I saw a program on the building of Verruckt on one of the Discovery channels that was aired before the ride was approved for use. It was incredible the lack of actual design and construction expertise involved. It was, essentially, a trial-and-error, seat of the pants operation. Test dummies flying off on a regular…

So, effectively, “The New Colossus” is only for white folks.

White folks of the correct class, at that.

Do I have that about right?

We’ve long had problems with both open and clandestine racism and classism in this country—it’s only now that the quiet parts are being spoken aloud that many are waking up to the fact that…

You’d be surprised how many people under about 24 couldn’t pick MJ out of a lineup. Guy hasn’t been relevant in the NBA in 20 years.
