• The Daily Beast identified New Hampshire state representative Robert Fisher (R) as the likely individual behind Reddit’s “Red Pill” forum, a breeding ground for misogynists. Among other musings, Fisher wrote: “I’m going to say it—Rape isn’t an absolute bad, because the rapist I think probably likes it a lot.”

At Easter, my step dad actually quoted the Art of the Deal to me, and told me I should read it because it had good advice like, “always make your most outrageous demand at the beginning of the negotiation!”

From TNR:

Not excusing any of this behavior but it seems like a trend across all airlines. Can anyone speak to flight attendant hours/working conditions? Again not that it excuses any anger or aggression but could be underlying factor.

Friendly reminder to fly Virgin America, Alaska, or JetBlue

Honestly whichever candidate runs on a platform of airline regulation in the next presidential election is the one I will vote for. Where the hell is the ghost of Teddy Roosevelt when you need him?

The only Trump to feel any sympathy toward is Barron. He needs to be raised as far away from his father and siblings as humanly possible.

Eastern European mail-order brides—and let’s not kid ourselves, that’s what Melania is for all intents and purposes—generally are very good at keeping up appearances and staying in loveless marriages to get what they want. I had a boss who got one and genuinely thought she loved him...until he discovered, after she’d…

you almost feel a little bit sad for Melania

That poor girl. Shouldn’t news articles (and blogs) avoid reporting her name? She’s a complete victim here; why make it so easy for all future acquaintances and employers to see what happened with a quick Google search?

I’m glad that she has been found and I hope that she gets the counseling that she needs. What’s sad is that throughout this whole ordeal, the majority of comments I’ve seen on local news sites have put as much blame on her as they have the teacher. Apparently she didn’t looked scared in the CCTV footage they caught…

We had a system like that in our town library when I was growing up back in the ‘50s. Her name was Margaret.

Look at this response. She fucking killed it.

Hawaii’s statehood was delayed for a number of years by Southern conservatives who were appalled at the prevalence of miscegenation there, most notably Sam Rayburn. You think Jefferson Beauregard Sessions thinks that Hawaii is really part of the United States? When he was growing up it was nothing but a military…

Sessions was referring to Hawaii. It’s unclear whether or not Sessions knows that Hawaii is one of the fifty states or if he was just being racist.

It needs to be connected to WiFi so that it can cost $400.

Honest question: can someone please explain why this thing has to be connected to wifi?

How do you squeeze juice? With your hands?

But also, why the hell would a juice press need four tons of force? Is it juicing granite boulders or some shit?

Doug Evans, the company’s founder, would compare himself with Steve Jobs in his pursuit of juicing perfection. He declared that his juice press wields four tons of force—“enough to lift two Teslas,” he said.
