Oh, what a glorious fucking over of Gavin Belson that was. And the fact that Jared had the ability to singlehandedly mold that assistant into an unhinged Pied Piper-obsessed slave makes me all the more terrified of him with each passing season.

“How would you like to die today, motherfucker?”

it’s a very subjective decision: a probability of some problem to trade against another (yes, lower) probability of *another* problem

I’m so glad you wrote this. I wish more politicians could be forced to read stories like yours so that they understand what the difference is like between having good insurance, and shitty insurance or no insurance.

She is a goddamned national treasure and I wish every day she hadn’t left this group of sites. Though I’m certainly happy she’s moving up in life.

I’m just sad this guy probably won’t make another appearance. That was a good episode.

I am white and sat on my ass on the couch eating snacks during the anthem in all games I’ve watched this year.

You dare doubt The Freeze?

I can only think of this.

“As good fortune would have it, we had a bodyguard that summer,” she writes. They persuaded their bodyguard to buy lemonade, and then their driver, and then the maids, who “dug deep for their spare change.” The lesson, she says, is that the kids “made the best of a bad situation.”

Things look really bad now but I promise everyone it’ll all be over soon.

I read that Trump complained about Spicer’s suits. TRUMP, of all people, had opinions about another man’s suits. They are supposed to be adult men, why can’t they dress as such? Obama always had such gorgeous suits, Trump looks like a toddler in his older brother’s suit and Spicer looks like he won his suit at a…

Plus the costume was perfect with that ill-fitting suit, tie, collar. It would be hard to top tonight’s performance.
