Oh yay! What NO ONE WANTS. Two old motherfuckers dukeing it out to see who gets to be made fun of by the spray tan and wig in chief. Is Sanders SERIOUSLY going to try it again? Bitch you made your run this year as an Independent and now you’re going to try it on the Dem ticket GREAT LOOK and I’m SURE you’ll be able to…

Unless it’s a thrist for AWESOME STUFF. I am also a lifelong horse enthusiast, and I fucking love it because it’s the closest you can get to being friends with a giant magnificent beast of fantasy and legend. Plus unlike dragons most horses stay at a manageable size, and will not burn off your eyebrows.   I like a…

I see a deed of EVIL JESUS in your username!  I enjoy that the McElroys have made “PODCASTS” into a goofy solo brand opportunity.

The Viking funeral should have been for Sheldon’s career and credibility. How you gonna get tenure when you do time and resource management like that - missing a same-topic paper just because it isn’t in English is lazzzzzy bullshit. Also why the fuck not publish it as a negative results paper and expand on the…

Aye, sounds like there’s some fuckin’ bitter betties up in this bitch. I know full well “my people” of academics don’t tend to fare well on any mass media (even the podcasts hosted by long time academic specialists have frustratingly low production value [you are at a university YOU CAN GET A REAL MICROPHONE AND LEARN…

If Megan Fox wants to be the telegenic presenter who will talk to the dweebs of academia and make it relatable, god bless and I’ll give it a watch. Telegenic dudes hosting generic History of Some Kind programs get a fuckin’ pass for robbing a hypothetical specialist of their dream TV gig, but we gotta get real mad if…

It would be amazing to go back to a more civil “I disagree with my opponent but they are a person, a person I admire in man ways, but we are trying to bring different things” discourse, but unfortunately we just watched the descendant of a Bavarian draft dodging reject get through a campaign where he openly talked…

There’s not nearly enough Melungeon in the family tree for any of them to have given we many generations descended a trace of melanin. Instead I have a weird UV allergy reaction, and I turn lobster red and peel away to old-book-paper pale if I let the sun touch me. But I did not realize just how NOT normal for most…

Like “My family stories are stories...but here’s the actual facts of how the Drumpf, oops I mean Trump family have had a centuries long tradition of draft dodging and not even pre WW1 Bavaria wanted them back!  Ol’ Draft Dodgin Donnie Drumpf keeping up the family tradition!”

I will never understand this facet of people padding out their heritage instead of researching it. . There’s a *tiny* percentage of Native American and East African in my family history and genome, and that actually makes sense considering we’re Appalachian hillbillies with a “reputation” of having “Melungeon” in the…

Don’t forget every Christmas she stalks the contemporary art programs of DC and New York to find the most bleak, disaffected sophmore who can be trusted to bring her bizarre almost symbolist holiday nightmare ennui to life in the corridors of the White House.  The sophmore must have watched “Un Chien Andalou” at least…

OH DIP THAT BEFORE AND AFTER. I have...so many questions. HARD agree on the Kellyanne resemblance. Clearly that’s the kind of rhinoplasty you get when there’s really nothing wrong but you think there is.
I was about to say about that 5 head, it’s like she surrendered a solid inch of forehead to have that of hairline…

I hope they never realize that *everyone* can see it. This is the next best thing to watching your buttoned up neighbors have a full family front lawn meltdown on Thanksgiving.

Will Tomi have to WEAR a 613 instead of bleaching to it? Also if that’s a wig or extensions someone needs to be congratulated for giving her that brittle fucked up look so naturally.

Busted Redhead -> Orphan Ging -> Sansa Fierce  I love this progression

He’s clearly intelligent. He’s got his personal field of knowledge and what he knows he knows THOROUGHLY. But the smartest thing about him is that he knows what he doesn’t know, and then he brings in a person who does it for a living and by and large they’re someone who is podcast-friendly and a leader in their field.…

I’ve learned something new today! I wonder why/how that was worked out!

And why not! They are awesome and I wish we had more of them around here, obviously Kentucky is famous for...thoroughbreds. But I like my horses in the “monster truck” range not the sporty convertible/fancy European sports car range.

PRIDE! I read every fucking Margurite Henry book and memorized my battered Encyclopedia of the Horse.  We were fortunate enough to be able to afford a horse since when you live on a Military base there’s almost always a stable for 1) Parade horses and base owned animals 2) the shocking number of military wives who…

Plus Dressage riders get to do the stone faced retort of “Fancy horse dancing? NO SIR THIS IS HORSE TRAINING FOR WAR. BATTLE FIELD MANEUVERS FROM BRUTAL AGE. My horse could leap up and kick your fucking head off if I told it to, and do it elegantly!”
