This man was, by every metric but legality, equally American to me. I probably still speak more Arabic than he does, and I’d describe my current Arabic level as “mostly forgotten”. Deporting him to Iraq was an intentional act of cruelty. It led directly to his death.

I wonder when Trump & his Brownshirts will start deporting Native Americans, because part of Mohawk Nation built a casino at a horse racing track that he didn’t like enough to spend a fortune in the courts trying to block their license...

Good lord, none of these GOP ghouls give a shit about brown people.

This isn’t right in any way but it’s commoner than we thing and been happening for years. I think it there was an article on Vice about a German guy, been here his entire life, turned out his mom, a German citizen hadn’t gotten his paperwork or whatever together when he was a baby and then didn’t bother to tell him,…

Swimmer 1: “Hey have you heard about the protests in Hong Kong?”

“And Suzy died so bravely, filming the very tsunami that took her from us”

... Unlock that door, and you may be headed to the Shrine of the Silver Monkey! Assemble the statue there, and you may move on to the Wave Pool. If you survive both the correctly functioning waves AND the accidental tsunami, it may lead you to the Pavement! From there, you must climb into the Ambulance and race to…

Design meeting attended by only various versions of 11 year-old me

My rule is:

If you can’t order, eat, and pay by 10 minutes before closing, then don’t go in to a proper, full-service restaurant. That’s what fast food and all-night diners are for.

And if it can’t be helped and your server is scrambling to get your order taken care of, leave a generous tip.  But you should know that…

After he liked one [Rep. Matt] Gaetz tweet, he had it printed by a staffer and signed it and requested that it be sent to Gaetz’s congressional office, where the now-framed tweet hangs.

None of the cars are in running condition.

Oh, go whine on your tiny violin somewhere else, you worthless cockwalloper. Quit fucking our elections.

Antifa: a terrorist organization that must be stopped.

This is a better joke than finding out what’s really in your Coke.

I have an actual culinary degree (I've mentioned this before, but it's especially relevant to this conversation) and I agree with you. Not everyone loves to cook, or has time to cook, or the space/equipment, or the money. It doesn't make them bad people; they just have a different focus than those of us who are…

Knives? Just chip some stones together to get a cutting edge! The last thing you need is some storebought "knife"!

Food processor! Pfffft. Simplify, man!

But eventually, you graduate. You become a grown up with
responsibilities and a proper kitchen. You learn to use a skillet like
an adult. It won’t make you fatter. You learn to gauge whether meats are
