I’ll buy it, because I’m a decadent wastrel who grew up on the 80s and have unlimited funds for pop-culture flotsam.  

Picasso was really, really rich at that point, and famous, and could get away with all sorts of shit.

I don’t know how any judge would allow Celeste to just spring that video of her abuse on a courtroom with no warning. And let it play. Especially since it didn’t have any bearing on the crux of the case, an abused person can also be an unfit parent. The whole thing was unrealistic.  Come to think of it, so was…

Well, what did you expect? All the people screaming here for impeachment and energetically defaming Nancy Pelosi, this is reality. Go look at it all go down in flames. And this is just the House where Dems are a majority. The Senate would murder it further. Nancy Pelosi actually knows what she’s doing. You…

Thank you! It’s beyond indifference, it’s this weird disdain. I really like Kelly Faircloth’s articles about things like this, that height of paper tabloid mags in 1999 when JFK Jr. died. I thought it was insightful and interesting. Kelly’s articles often are.

It’s horsehit.   JFK Jr. was interesting because he looked like a mix of both his mother and his father, who was JFK.    Imagining Agnelli as his real father is stupidity like people saying James Hewitt was Prince Harry’s real father.  Even though Diana met him after Harry was born, red hair runs in her family, and he…

Which is annoying, because Caroline was doing the typical first-born thing of carrying on the family legacy, but of course she is a woman and not the blatant thirst trap he was,

My question is, does Rich know Dale Peck personally?  It’s not unlikely. 

“Poorly written”- Aside from all the other issues with Peck’s piece-of-shit article, in one sentence he speculates about Pete and Chasten probably having, “solar panels on the ceiling”.  Roof.  He probably meant roof, but the whole thing was sloppy, sloppy hackwork.  Slapped together and unedited. Bad writing. 

Thanks for filling that in. There seems to be a shake- up at Get Out Media, maybe there needs to be an earthquake throughout. All of us who still check Splinter because of Gawker memories, but Gawker was funny, Splinter is written by child-bloggers, it’s basically a hate site against the Democratic Party now. …

Who? I see two top editors are leaving AV Club, one of them in tears as she said on Twitter, and I look at this whole front page, and it’s holy shit, so much garbage I don’t give a fuck about.

Alexandria Ocasio- Cortez is not real life. Neither is Splinter, or Twitter. Her (now majority Hispanic) district in the Bronx is tinily small. (I’m from the Bronx, if that matters.)

Just right now, Nancy Pelosi is blessing and endorsing protests against possible ICE raids against vulnerable immigrants, she’s telling them to lock their doors and not let them in without a warrant. This is after Trump declared war on immigrants, legal or not, and Trump means to spread fear. Nancy Pelosi is…

One saving grace is that Kinja is so fucking kludgy and slow, they can’t do mass bot attacks here. So when you encounter a troll here, consider it artisanal and hand-crafted and it wasted their time.  :) 

Thank you. Other sites and NPR are describing it as “Trump backs down”. The bigger story was his saying, “So, there won’t be a census question, but I’m Executive Ordering a new Gestapo where we will find every citizen and every illegal alien in the country. “(He and Barr used “illegal alien” multiple times.) 

The DM is no doubt excoriating MM for what she’s wearing with one of those hateful hit-jobs they do on her every day.  Usually by fabricating shit out of thin air.  The commenters are fucking vile as well.  

It was a nuclear-powered submarine. “Russia broke three days of secrecy July 4 and confirmed that the stricken underwater research vessel was nuclear-powered.” Maybe not armed with nukes, but who knows? And I don’t know how you fit 14 people on a “small submersible”.

What a meanspirited bastard country we are.

What’s mind-blowing is that someone gets paid to write this sort of brain-fart and imagining it’s journalism.
