Honestly my mother mentioned this yesterday and I also genuinely thought he had died a while back. Maybe I had him mixed up with someone else?

Nighttime in the convention center parking lot. Trump and Boy Pence stealthily make their way toward the motor home.

Trump, standing sternly and authoritatively. A stretcher and paramedics come into the frame.

The convention center parking lot. A motor home with a large “Trump 2020" banner on the side. Cut to the interior full of all sorts of sophisticated computer gizmos and lights.

Ok, I got a pretty good laugh imagining WHO commandos following WH employees around to spray virus on them.  It’s set to the Mission Impossible theme song in my head. 

Um.

Hold up, are we not gonna talk about Trump’s new Nazi shirt?

Exactly this. You and your kids might fall out, your children might predecease you (every parent’s nightmare), or some other scenario that prevents them from looking after you in your old age. The people who promote this line of thought don’t seem to understand that just because they accepted the implied inter-generati

The perfect choice to co-host the gala would have realized that holding it during a pandemic was not a good idea.

The thing is...it’s all so unnecessary. It’s totally possible to run a successful company and not be an asshole.

His company and his foundation are still barely subject to any meaningful regulation. Seems it paid off for this scumbag

I am so confused right now, wasn’t Augustus’s BFF named Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa and not Aurelius? Have I been living a lie?

It’s late 80s, I’m about 13 and already have a reputation for being the mouthy juvenile delinquent in the family. My older cousin is drop dead gorgeous and about 16. I haven’t seen my older cousin in a few years, but we were like sisters in our early childhood.

My aunt (her mother) pulls in with her boyfriend and my

I sorta want to hear your sister’s take on this, too. 

I would probably “win” this posting but there is so much abuse and triggering stuff involved that I’m going to sit this one out. Pouring a seltzer tonight for others, like me, who have experienced such horrible vacations that have irrevocably broken their families.

On a road trip from the great white north down to Texas, my family of 4 stopped at a Whataburger for dinner after waiting at a family-style restaurant to be served, and instead ignored, for 45 minutes. My parents are brown and my sibling and I are white-passing — we were in northern Texas and it was one of my first

People opposed to statehood have been ranting about “lobbyists and bureaucrats” even though most of them actually live in Virginia and Maryland.

A heart attack can’t kill you if you don’t have a heart.

That was my first thought as well, that surely one of her exams or pregnancy checkups would have found it? Or is it more of a one over and you’re good?

What can you say to someone like this? It sounds like he got a C- in Econ 101 and that is the extent of what he understands about how markets work. How does he think “more competition” would work for medical care? After suffering a sudden, catastrophic injury, he would have shopped around for the cheapest care? Like,
