Since when is the NYT working for the other side? I get that it’s an opinion piece and not necessarily indicative of their editorial approach, but damn if it didn’t seem like something that soyld hve actually been said with a heavy dose of sarcasm on The Colbert Report.

While certainly not outside the realm of possibility, I’m pretty sure that’s the point where New England and the west coast secede from the union and people turn from marches and rallies to riots and bombings.

It’s like being forced to choose which kind of metastatic cancer you want. There’s no good answer; they’re all awful.

As much as I wish we could call this a win, it’s more likely just a lack of motivation on the part of casual-to-moderate gun nuts. No scary liberals are coming for their guns at the moment, and it was a sweltering July afternoon.

I hate to tell you this, but it’s entirely possible that he actually is in solitary confinement for his own safety. Between Trumpco, the Russians and assorted eastern European authoritarian governments and criminal syndicates, there are likely quite a few people in this world that wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to…

That’s pretty much what happened when we had our 2nd child. My wife was an elementary school teacher at the time, and we had a retired family friend watching our first daughter (for what basically worked out to be about $10/hr). That family friend’s husband fell ill, and she was already irrevocably committed to…

Has Mitch McConnell ever pretended to give a damn about school shootings?  I'm not sure this is news so much as a statement of the obvious.

Serious nostalgia there. Ultima 6 and 7 defined a lot of my early computer gaming experiences. Up to them, most of the RPGs I had played had been very structured and narrowly defined (mostly gold-box AD&D dungeon crawls) and seeing a gaming world that detailed and alive was kind of mind-blowing.

The only thing weirder than Stephen Miller’s disproportionately massive forehead due to his early-onset male pattern baldness is trying to imagine how bizarre he must have looked with his hairline a few inches forward.

What’s even more bizarre is that she’s arguably tied with Mattis for being the least horrible cabinet member in this administration.

That sounds like a horribly cheesy Civil War reenactment persona.

Smoot-Hawley, something, something, Great Depression.

Sounds like someone’s jockeying for some extra pork in the federal budget for Maine.

Yes, it was part of their vile single-payer strategy. That’s why they have to be stopped.

Sounds like the slippery slope toward drinking room-temperature instant coffee out of a non-descript travel mug you got on clearance at Dollar General, on your way to a pointless job that robs you of your will to live (but pays just a little too much to rationalize quitting outright).

“The teen, who wants to be an astrophysicist, is headed to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in the fall, where he intends to major in computer engineering and minor in aerospace engineering.”

Clarification: He feels journalists should be free of the fear of being violently attacked while doing their jobs because they would be more likely to report on being attacked at that point. He’d much rather they be ambushed completely unaware, while not actively engaged in reporting, to lessen the likelihood of…

“The Jews are not Semitic they are Satanic as they all descend from Satan.”

Yeah, in the books, he finds a new job after Ceres and ends up being a major character in the Cibola Burn storyline.

In the books, Bobbi isn’t actually in the slow zone with everyone else (she doesn’t even appear in Abaddon’s Gate or Cibola Burn, books 3 & 4). In the timeline of the books, Bobbi leaves the Martian Marines around the time of the slow zone incident, and is working in Veteran’s Affairs on Mars. Alex meets up with her…
