His dad is a piece of shit. His father-in-law is a piece of shit. His wife is a piece of shit. His brothers-in-law are pieces of shit. He was a shitty publisher of the New York Observer. Shit all around. Fuck him.

Actually, I don't think Gwen used it correctly. I've always understood "matriculate" to mean entering or joining or beginning school. The way it's used in this article, it seems to suggest graduation, which would not be correct. (Unless people begin school in late April somewhere.)

Blackberry schnapps?

Does that even count as a chin? It's just a fleshy mass descending from his mouth, smushed into his shirt.

This is a great idea, although I suspect the histories for some of the older folks, like McConnell, will be disappointing because they rarely, if ever, turn on the computer box and use the Google machine.

Here's a good place to ask this: Why is Thomas Middleditch still doing commercials? He's in those Verizon commercials, and a while back he was in an American Express commercial with Tina Fey. And he's not using his celebrity to sell stuff; he's just playing random guys in commercials. (In the American Express ad, he…

The guy with the bad-tasting dick crosses over into Pineapple. Problem solved. Happy ending for everyone.

I don't think so. But she made a couple of mistakes. One was hyping the news that she had Trump's tax returns. That was technically true, but the Tweets before the show led people to believe that she had something explosive, even though she knew she didn't. (That's not to say that what she had was unimportant.) The…

I've been away for several days, and I . . . I am confused about what's happened to What's On Tonight.

You could just take the word "healthcare" out of that sentence.

That's what happens when you're actually ok with the policy, but don't like the black guy who got it enacted into law, and have to spend seven years pretending that you hate the policy rather than the black guy, and suddenly find yourself in power and under pressure to get rid of the policy that actually isn't so bad,…

Is that a current picture of Simon Rich? Goodness, that looks like me when I was maybe a junior or senior in high school — big schnoz, big hair, glasses, pubescent facial hair. (Come to think of it, it might not be that far from me now. Yes, I'm quite the catch.) There may be some hope for me yet. I've been thinking…

His dad was a professor at Antioch College, which is in Yellow Springs (and has a very liberal, activist reputation). I think his parents split up when he was a kid, so while Dave mostly grew up in D.C. with his mom, he spent a fair bit of time with his dad in Yellow Springs. I'm guessing he likes it and is…

They're basically letting the State Department wither away from atrophy and neglect. (Just as they want to do with EPA.) If you didn't see this piece yesterday, it's pretty bleak: https://www.theatlantic.com…

Oh, yes, of course. It's just a sad indication of where we are, that a man who's unqualified to be Secretary of State and woman who's only being listened to because she's the daughter of the President are the best hope for sanity in the White House. (And they may well lose out to a Nazi.)

Sessions wasn't the only one. In case you've forgotten, five — yes, five — members of Trump's Cabinet lied to the Senate:

I'm assuming he's suing for copyright infringement. I'm not a copyright expert, so I could be wrong, but I'd be stunned if his claim isn't barred by the statute of limitations, which I believe is three years. Now, it's three years from the time the infringement is discovered, not three years from the publication of…

Didn't watch a second. That was partly because he aggravates me to no end, and I already grind my teeth and send my blood pressure soaring several times a day because of him. But it was mostly because I knew what was going to happen. Someone would write a speech that sounds lofty and hints at inclusiveness and…

Earlier in the day, he blamed the military — the generals — for the botched raid and Owens' death. The buck stops . . . uh, somewhere short of him.

He'll fuck up and sound bigoted, tone deaf, stupid or deranged again in short order. I'll bet within 24 hours. All tonight proved is that he can read words other people write for him.
