It’s a full-time gig being a schill, you know?

And she got her ass handed to her by J.K. Rowling earlier this week.

I’d just like to note - because this story is important and some commenters seem confused - that it’s beyond appalling to compare white communities losing their accents because of globalization to the lingering effects of systematic cultural genocide that has marginalized and disempowered native communities for…

Posted elsewhere, as well, but I’ve been thinking recently that at some point Trump is going to start believing this is true and woe be to Pence the day that happens.

I can’t even imagine the real story here. The poor woman.

Jesus Christ. My ex missed the birth of our daughter because he was stuck in an airport in Ireland, en route from Afghanistan. That is a perfectly honorable and respectful reason to miss the birth of your child. Being absent due to service to the objectively worse US president, in terms of competency and pretty much…

Nah. Three dudes, one assumes they were in possession of testicles, armed with a gun, tried to attack her.

I’m a teacher. That’s a well argued paper from a 2nd grader. Seriously, I often get “X is bad because it’s bad” as an argument from much older kids. Counterpoint: Pickle could be president, because qualifications don’t matter (apparently). All he has to do is marry rich enough.

First off, you’re awesome, and don’t you ever forget it.

^^THIS is important to note. (Great first-ever comment!)

Killer update on Murkowski being threatened by Zinke, though: he forgot she was his boss, didn’t think things through, and she’s now blocking his appointment hearings and appropriations. Oopsie! Checkmate.

Look, I said it, this wasn’t some heroic act of bravery. But I enjoy the effects anyway. I can’t complain when he does something shitty and then complain when he does something good. I’ll just take what I can get.

This photo makes me gag every time I see it 😫
