Rhymes with hinge. Irish people use it too. Ir/Br people will use whinge instead of whine it seems 90 percent of the time. Growing up I always thought of it as a slangy variation of whine.  Always used disparagingly, ha.   But then whine nearly always has a negative connotation too. 

This is it. The way Alex Jones has been sold to me before by co-workers is always the softer, “trust me I get it” approach. “He’s obviously a nutter, but every now and then he says some things that really make sense that other people aren’t talking about!” It’s a la carte bullshit and hatred.

Open a pirate site and type in the title. Hilariously, screeners went out for Academy Award consideration so that’s how it leaked online.

Exactly. Perhaps a semi-Freudian semi-slip there on DI Fowler’s part. I’m sure they meant “it suggests it’s okay for creepy old men to pursue very young women”.

She means that Nicki has cultivated a persona that she’s not the type who would back down from a fight and that persona is for entertainment purposes only and not grounded in reality whereas Cardi purports herself to be 100% authentic. It’s a common dichotomy in hip hop feuds.

Refractory period after pornography. I'm gonna need a minute. It was weird pornography. 

I have a coworker who is absolutely nuts for the guy. They had to separate our lunches and also tell him to use headphones because he would listen to InfoWars so loudly on his phone. He’s also got several bumper stickers on his family van. Everytime he mentions something he “saw on the news,” I have to assume it’s…

White woman on my job wanted to touch my hair.
She said, “It looks so soft.”
I said, “Can I rub on your pregnant belly?”
“No.”
“See? Same thing.”

Jones is living proof that this is a fallacy. The only reason he was banned from social media is because the left DIDN’T ignore him. Instead we pointed out that he was a hate-mongering psycho and eventually something was done. Do you honestly think Facebook or Youtube would have cared otherwise?

Soooo as someone who works in outdoor recreation in our nation’s last beautiful places, I probably think about this too much and more seriously than other people.

If only he was an off-duty cop fearing for his life, no one would have questioned him.

I am about to say something heretical here : I don’t find Patton Oswalt that funny.

Must’ve been interesting coming from a guy who looks like a hobbit.

Think of the average person, and then realize that 1/2 of the people are dumber than that. It is absolutely 0 surprise a quarter of the adults in this country are dumb enough to vote for Trump.

Yeah, a lot of MAGAs in rural areas are going to be hit hard if SNAP is cut, or if work requirements are added. (Tho you can bet the Senate will add all sorts of exemptions for desirable poors.) May also further harm farmers, by removing a fair bit of cash from the food-buying public. The famous Government Cheese…

Received an email this morning with instructions for eligible military retirees on how to go about getting a Retirement Certificate signed by a living President other than Trump.

I remember back when George W Bush did irreparable damage to the Republican brand, and the 8 years of tantrums that followed before culminating in electing Mean Reagan to tear the world down.

Letting “Trump be Trump” could mean nuclear war.  Thanks, but no thanks.

And on a rig you could deploy huge inflatable floating booms for the solar array.

The US military has talked about the strategic importance of replacing ‘king’ and ‘queen’ pieces on the maritime chessboard with lots of ‘pawns
