Potatoes and tomatoes are already in the same family actually, commonly referred to as the nightshade family. Potatoes have been selected for giant roots, tomatoes for giant fruits. When potatoes reproduce sexually (not as difficult for home gardeners than it is for big ag) they basically produce tiny, unpalatable…

I wouldn’t blame Sockalexis for cursing Cleveland.

Okay, okay, I’ll try your barrel aged negroni with caramelized blood orange skewers, but on the rocks. Can you hear me? I said on the... on the rocks! Rocks! Ice! Can you- he didn’t hear me.

Just, no way, man. Like Shkreli or Ailes, I’d rather take a vow of celibacy. I’m as irreligious as they come and I’d seriously become a nun if that was my only other option.

Dishes are way worse than laundry:

My money’s still on Tiffany pulling a Tyrion, showing the world what she’s made of. She’s just got the right face for a defiant mugshot and a frogmarch in orange.

fuck I wish this didn’t make sense, but yeah

Totally get you :) Sorry, I was just standing on my soapbox.

I understand the mixed feelings and wariness of the resolve of the marchers. But I think for many first-time marchers, this was a first step into solidarity, realizing it wasn’t just you and your one liberal friend who felt this way. That maybe your racist shithead relatives weren’t the majority. Especially in more…

DTS: Down To Systematically destroy anything functional, intelligent or good in this troubled nation

SO GOOD. Bold choices. But yeah, son, rebellions can be like that! Good people can and do die, just for the slimmest hope of getting a single file into the right hands. I really respect that. Reminds us why the Rebellion is important, and reminds us of the sacrifices so many real people have made for us to even be…

Also ecological collapse and roving militias of poor, starving, uneducated citizens with even less to live for than they have now. Not a good situation. Like it or not, we’re one country, one landmass, one planet. We can’t afford to pretend that suffering next door won’t affect us.

Goddamn. Times like these I really miss Gawker. But I must admit your articles are bigger and more brutal now that you don’t have to churn as much for bluetooth speakers. Love you, love your work. If you’re still here all’s not lost.

Fast forward to 15 years later and she’ll be thanking bouncers profusely when they do (ask me how I know)

Thanks for writing, Ash. Love you, love your work and I miss Gawker so much right now.

I’ll take it! I know basically nothing about football except what I remember of my father’s excited defenses of Mike Ditka. I can’t make it any worse, right?

I needed to cry today. My mother died of cancer last year, in a dark and filthy house controlled by my insane father who she refused to leave. This was a far more beautiful death, which I can imagine for her instead of what she got.
