Until recently they were a lot better at adopting a believeable stance of just being differently principled. Now they look a lot more like someone who is good at arguing for the enjoyment they get out of riling people up. At best they’re a jerk who doesn’t know they’re a jerk, but I’m not really inclined to extend…

Are you people that desperate to argue?

Maybe you think you’re helping? You’re not.

I have no credentials but this is what I have been suspecting.

I watched Rogue One for the fifth time today and in the last scene—well—it took until the fifth viewing but finally I felt like I was seeing what I was supposed to be instead of an uncanny valley hellscape.

Jackie Evancho is a tween/teen who was on American Idol or something similar. Interestingly, she has an older trans sibling who has spoken out about a local HS bathroom controversy. (I only know this because she’s from my local area and occasionally pops up in the news.)

Yeah, I ... Smiley cookies aren’t that great but seeing Trump holding them makes me feel bad.

I’m a vegetarian and (most) hunting doesn’t especially bother me. Help, I don’t know if I should be offended and pissed at you or not. /s

Why elections are held when they are came up a while ago somewhere in the gawkerverse ... they’re held when they are because the nation was much more agriculturally oriented during the founding period, and people didn’t have motorized transport or access to adequate roads.  It could take a while to get to your polling…

Before I actually clicked through I was really hoping that the office would be in the steam pipe trunk distribution venue.

I mostly agree with this. I’m not a scientist, but my SO is, and I feel confident in the following:

My SO is a PSU alum and has family connections who lived in State College until recently. (They pulled up stakes to live closer to their grandkids.) My family has no PSU connections but my mom bought into the St. Paterno story bigtime before all this shit came out. All of which is to say, I vaguely get what the…

Is it?

Honestly “Trump is utterly fucking clueless and bumbles his way to doing all the right things and they come out perfectly” is my dream scenario. Speaking as a person who didn’t vote for him and would never vote for him. (Let’s ignore the fact that this is wildly unlikely because it’s not as if his supporters and…

This is hilarious because most liberals will shrug and say, okay, sounds fair. The people who hate the thought of women being drafted? Social conservatives.

Take your star, you bastard.

I saw this article and had a sequence of different reactions:
“Ohio doesn’t deserve anything nice! Screw them!” (Note: I spent most of my adolescent and some young adult years in the Columbus area. My feelings about Ohio as a place to live were fairly positive until recently but also I’m not sorry I left.)

“McQueary was awarded $4.97 million by Judge Thomas Gavin Wednesday”

Oh my god, that is so ludicrously spot-on. Too bad he mostly takes after “the super genius.” (gagging noises)
