“Why doth the peasantry fret so o’er this ‘Black Death’? ” ~Lord Pence, c. 1350 

At that moment, I almost unconsciously drew my hand to my mouth, just so in awe and enthralled and inspired. His energy and tone, especially when, like you said, PUTIN IS RIGHT THERE is just... God, it’s just something else, isn’t it? (And I also find him really handsome, too.)

Your missing the point entirely- that soupçon of Portuguese frizzant is meant to elate, not just escape to. But I hear you.

“The word is....Covfefe.”

Wait, you have a security clearance and you’ve been drinking? I don’t want to get you in trouble, but are... are aliens real?!

I don’t think separating that woman from her pharmacy is at all a good idea...

The people (though I’m loathe to ascribe any sort of humanity to them) in these videos always return to the refrain, “This is America,” as if that’s supposed to mean something in and of itself. What are they even trying to say? Because if it’s supposed to have some implied/assumed ending, this is where my brain goes:…

—but enough about Tom Cruise—

If he’s a journalist I’m a freaking billionaire.

Economic anxiety rears its adorable head.

Great advice for all situations.

That’s it; it moves so fast. Beau showed no signs of it when he went in for a followup to his checkup blood tests two weeks before he died. I guess the mercy is that it is very fast, and they don’t suffer for very long. He was into the garbage the day before and strewed it all over the kitchen, so he felt good enough…

They won’t take a break between bleachings or get a regular deep condition treatment so the hair thins and breaks. Then they won’t cut layers in or shorten it to create volume because they’re…

Pretty disgusted with her cutesy “Kellyanne Conoway” name. I’d prefer “Shitspew McGarbageface.

That sounds like my cousin’s 10 year old daughter, who eats with her mouth open AND makes loud chewing sounds. Not to mention that she coughs or sneezes into her hand. It’s no wonder she’s sick every month.

I didn’t sleep well last night because I couldn’t get my downstairs toilet unplugged. I woke up this morning with this sort of foggy dread and said, “why am I sad? oh right, the toilet’s broken.”
If I get that affected by a clogged toilet, how do these people ever go to sleep and wake up, knowing what they did and what…

Glad to be here, Jim.

Point of order: it is currently not physically possible to be larger assholes than the Trumpers. Furthermore ain’t no diehard Trump voter is going to be voting anything but straight (R) so who cares

I think it’ll be ok. It’s not quite the same as the US where the bastard-candidate got the mainstream right to go along with him, with their traditional enemy opposing him. LePen is still officialy fringe and Macron is heading a new party, so the tribalism angle of “always vote for [right wing party] over [left wing…
