second rule of politics:

It’d be interesting to count how many times the Republicans have invoked their masculinity, specifically, as a means of garnering support for their ideas. It’s so common it goes unnoticed.

I’m just going to repost my comment from the original The Slot post.

Just don’t do what Dumbledore did and tell everyone that Slytherin had totes 100% won the house cup and then tear down the Slytherin colours whilst laughing* because you’ve decided to give Gryffindor a bunch of last-minute points like a jerk. I’m not even a Slytherin, I just get mad about things.

Except that Donald is on course to lose worse than Romney. He loses his own home state by over 20 points. He’s on track to lose Michigan and Ohio and Virginia. And even Republican strongholds like Arizona could possibly vote Hillary thanks toDonald’s racist bullshit.

But at least little Teddy had a whole community of loving witches and wizards to raise him. Harry really got a bum deal.

I forgive her every single death because she gave me a beautiful parenting gift - my children will do anything I ask if they get points for Gryffindor. They get 50 points each for good bedtimes. My life is exponentially easier.

I assumed that Lupin and Tonks died in order to mirror James and Lily dying. The cycle repeating itself.

Clarkson is way funnier regardless of his many foibles. Combine him with Captain Slow and Hamster and you had a winning lineup.

Sort of. I’d go more with “bumbling oaf.” While he frequently went out of bounds, it was usually *intended* to be fun/ny, and he didn’t go out of his way to make the show about him or his own ego. What we’ve seen of Evans so far is that he is actively undermining his own co-hosts and seems to be doing the show because…

I have never once shown my dick to someone who didn’t want to see it. Which is why I simply don’t understand how hard it is for these people who go around showing off their todger all the time to keep it in their fucking pants in the workplace.

Except Jeremy Clarkson was less of an asshole. Seriously, I’m absolutely not defending Clarkson’s past dickishness.

Who the hell even uses miscegenation anymore?

I learned a new word today: miscegenation. Usually I feel smarter after learning a new word. Not today.

Interracial gay relationshiper here. I forget I’m in an interracial relationship 99% of the time. Am I alone in this? Also, I have a few dozen button-down shirts from Old Navy, for casual workdays. Old Navy has become better than their strict sibling, Banana Republic.

Paul Feig’s movie trailers are always terrible. But then the movie is hilarious (Spy and Bridesmaids).
