I was full of WTF at reading this. Bay leaf has a pretty distinct smell and flavor, something you can definitely have too much.

Nah. We’re liberals. We’re supposed to get all worked up about people using the wrong code words in quotes taken out of context.

Your comment and this from Bears for President had me thinking:

Though it appears that PLCAA didn’t stop a gun store from getting sued for selling a gun.

Ah. Thank you. I was confused about the arguments about safety because from all I heard the lawsuits weren’t seeking to sue over incidents where a gun went off unintentionally (because the safety was poorly designed, for example) but when they were used in crimes.

Go to the person’s Twitter page. There’s a little gear button next to the Follow button. If you click on that one option is “Turn off Retweets.” Unfortunately, you have to do it individually.

If you don’t like what she posts on her platform, then unfollow, block, ignore. Not that hard

I think we should have a social experiment where Channing Tatum tweets a frontal nude pic and we can judge the responses side-by-side.

Paris Hilton had a reality show before she had a sex tape. Now, this was in the days before reality TV was so quickly produced so the tape came out before The Simple Life debuted but at that point she had been doing press for it for a few months. The hype actually had me interested but I never got around to actually…

The ability to turn off retweets has been so key for me. For me, Twitter is a conversation where I’ve chosen who I want to hear from but everyone’s retweets made my twitter feed a mess of “Who the fuck is this and when did I start following them?” (which is a major reason I don’t check my facebook feed, I can’t…

That’s very true. If you’re making a joke on Twitter about something she did, that’s presuming that your followers know about the thing she did.

Maybe Lea Michele’s book about journaling? It’s mostly blank pages so it’s basically a journal.

Is calling out a dumb tweet via twitter really “grabbing [your] pitchfork” though?

WTH? I’ve heard stories about rapey gay men (I have one friend who believes a guy paid a waiter to slip him a date rape drug) but sometimes straight men just sound like they’re a different species.

Those are the two I have. I couldn’t remember which one it was.

It’s a brilliantly cyncal move by Roger Ailes and his circle. Make it all about identity issues and you don’t need to campaign against a local candidate anymore, just make generic ads about how they all will “push through Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama’s extreme agenda”.

Sheesh, what a headache. I’m shocked anyone who has to deal with that stays sane.

That means a lot to these CPAC types, at least if you don’t show any sign of being bothered by it.

I had to unfollow a very liberal Facebook friend because he started posting Breitbart articles and quotes from Tom DeLay about how Hillary was going to jail any day now

I think it was in an Al Franken book (back when he was a comedian who wrote snarky political books) that he talked about how Rush Limbaugh listeners spent the 90s certain that Bill & Hillary Clinton would soon be on death row for all those murders.
