The guy who sealed my parents’ driveway when I was a kid pulled up in one of these when he came to give us the estimate. Better yet, his company is down the lane right across the street, so when he left I followed him on my bicycle to get a better look and ask about it.

When I saw the headline of this post, I immediately thought about being passed by an M1 on the Bush Turnpike in Dallas about 15 years ago. I didn’t even know what it was, but I saw the BMW badge and looked it up when I got to my office.

I’ll see your time machine (do car shows count as in the wild?) and raise you a Jurassic Park Jeep.

“I would never ...” = “I didn’t realize there would be consequences for my actions.” Which is why we are seeing an uptick in racist and anti-Semitic acts; people are getting the message that they can get away with it.

Ok you all: I have a problem. I really have not been able to do anything else except surf the news since the election. Some people I know have decided to shut it out (one told me yesterday that the “news isnt gonna get better for four years” so I might as well tune out and save myself the heartache) but I can’t do it.…

I remember after the incidents in New York late last summer/early fall and the Pulse Nightclub massacre him not getting any real bounce out of the events. Like, he’s the only Republican who seemed to have fucked up capitalizing off security issues. It’s one of the things I remember most about the election because…

Holy shit that is fucking weird as hell. Jesus, Christ.

Yea, I have tons of respect for those Yemeni bodega owners; you know they work on really narrow profit margins, and closing down for 8 hours was a big sacrifice for a lot of them.

I had the same question though. Like, does it or does it not make the whole thing more impactful when I, as a male, still go to work and am swamped (I work at a small library with two coworkers, both women). Even as an ally? I honestly don’t know the answer to that question and it probably makes me seem like a real…

Boston here too. I don’t have the means to get down to DC right now, but I’ve started having to keep track on my calendar of the local marches and protests I’m planning on attending. I’m hoping DC for Earth Day... at least (ugh) there will be plenty of opportunities.

I think a lot of it comes from the fact that she is not only cocky, but at times a bad sport. Her refusing to shake Miesha Tate’s hand after their fight really solidified my dislike for her. I was at the UFC event in Melbourne when she lost to Holly Holm and cheered her loss along with everyone else in the crowd…

She made $3 million for 48 seconds. Honestly, I’d let most people beat me up for less than a minute for that much money...but I also have very hefty student loans.

Carson, who grew up in poverty, once said in a TV interview that “poverty is really more of a choice than anything else.”

You’re such a gibbering idiot that you should be Trump’s pick to run the Department of Education if the other gibbering idiot is rejected.

Missed this part:

I mean do we need another Austin Powers to show people how this works?

I hate the censorship debate as much as anyone but I completely understood what they were getting at with putting it in quotes. I do that all the time to mean “I don’t really mean this exactly but it’s the closest word I could come up with.”
