That’s awesome - my friend Kevin Tachman took that photo (and like a good insta-person she gave him attribution).

Long ago, in a children’s theater production of Babar, I played the hunter.

Apparently, it’s “The US meddles in elections all around the world, so why are we mad if the Russians did it to us with my help?”

Holy shit, I went to school with Laura Coates. It would be cool if she was the next host. If she is, I’m going to try out for the show.

Her excuse is as bad as Trump’s “I meant woudn’t be Russia”. My question is, given the texts she sent this girl, what would be the best possible recovery? I’m thinking something like:

After they removed the two 18 year olds, they coincidentally found a minor alone in a car out past curfew. How is this hard to grasp? Police interpret laws any way they want. What were they going to do, just let the kid go? No. That child needs to spend a few nights in lockup to teach ‘em to respect the MAN.

I think people would be much cooler about this issue if you didn’t have yahoos creating bad faith.

I’m honestly not sure how best to handle people with dog allergies. I generally resist efforts to curtail people’s rights (freedom from inconvenience isn’t one of them, within reason). I’m a sample of one, but I have met 4x as many people who are allergic to perfume/cologne than dogs (actual number, not hyperbole).…

These anti-dog takes have inconvenienced me far more than any dog I have ever seen in public or private, including ones that have bitten me (whom I forgave).

Why do people keep indulging GearoidDubh? Dude won’t quit.

“We’re not able to peacefully assemble. We’re not able to speak,” Kessler explained.

That’s HRH Duke of Sussex to you! (and everyone else)

I guess I could kind of see Harry saying something like “...well, you know, now that he’s president I guess we’ll have to give him a chance.” Not as an endorsement of Trump, but more of a way to avoid talking about it with someone who you don’t know very well.

“...and I have to tell them they have the same chance at jobs like those one as all others.”

But it does bother me that so few people here can see past their own preoccupation with racism.

What ho, Libby! All you need to do to get a more Wodehouse-y name is add an extra letter at the front of your name. I like Glibby Watson. Or you could replace the first letter and have something more jaunty like Tibby or Ribby.

The thing about private equity is that it’s the only asset class that is providing returns high enough to keep many US public and private pension plans afloat and able to pay retirees what they were promised. There may be more bad risk-takers in PE than other types of business, and many people are getting unreasonably…

It’s like that old saying about family, fun, and career - pick two.

He pardons people who have committed the same crimes that he and his associates have committed, so that there is a precedent of decriminalizing his white collar bullshit. This instance stands out, because it’s a POC and a non-white collar crime. This instance does not stand out in that Ali refused to go to war when…

I know she’s been gone since before WWII ended, but watching little Toto run around wagging her tail still makes me feel like things are going to be OK.
