The Republican Party in a nutshell. “Facts are biased against conservatives, so we have to invent alternate ones!”
The Republican Party in a nutshell. “Facts are biased against conservatives, so we have to invent alternate ones!”
Every.fucking.day I think it can’t get more insane, it can’t get more stupid, it can’t get more scary but no, that’s not true. Instead the government will keep trying to destroy healthcare, Trump will embarrass us on an international stage, and facts and science will continue to be ignored in new and more preposterous…
We all know that facts don’t matter to this administration. If they “feel” it’s true, it must be true.
Walter Shaub: first boring-looking middle-aged dude I’ve ever wanted to fling my panties at.
Literally the EPITOME of the out-of-touch East Coast Elitist. You know, the kind of people that Don the Con railed about during his Nuremburg Rallies.
The Treasury Secretary taking a private plane he doesn’t own to watch an eclipse from a giant pile of gold and then lying about it in such a dumb and obviously-refutable way is one of the more perfect encapsulations of the problems with this administration.
Well, as an east-coaster who traveled to rural Kentucky with my dad for the eclipse, I learned more from the locals (many of whom were military from all over the country) who had specialized equipment and cameras, and we had a great time, so suck it. Plus, we had plenty of bourbon to enjoy during the eclipse so…
You’d think every New Yorker would be stoked about seeing the eclipse, because each of them would be watching from their perceived center of the universe.
Let’s hope this comment backfires with Trump’s base out in Kentucky. After all, it was Trump who hired this New York big shot who just made all those Kentukians feel like backwater hicks. “Oh no, where did the sun go? Is this God punishing us?”
“People in Kentucky took this stuff very seriously. Being a New Yorker douchebag mouthbreather, I don’t have any interest in watching the eclipse”
Nothing makes you more likable than acting like being from New York makes you unimpressed with everything .
“Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, a villainous Wall Street muppet from a 1980s Jim Henson film” — Thank you for the most perfect description of this, this human?
It’s always impressive when some idiot manages to finagle an insult so absurd, they insult EVERYBODY with it.
Man, there hasn’t been a government of any country this out of touch since Louis XVI.
I love the old traditional songs. Sinead knows, or knew how to sing them:
Possibly slightly OT plus-size clothing complaint: I JUST WANT WORK/CASUAL BASICS. I don’t care about looking “hot”. I don’t need skintight shit that looks like I should be at the club. I love my bodacious ta-tas but am not interested in displaying them at the office. I just want regular, grown-up, non-adolescent,…
One thing that always strikes me is when they put a token old lady in a campaign (she’s always white, usually wearing huge bugeye glasses). They’ll have a bunch of teens and twentysomethings, and drop in one lady in her 70s or 80s.
A major part of it is the richness of the diet too many people consume coupled with a sedentary lifestyle, especially as we get older. It would be one thing if we lived agrarian lifestyles where consuming lots of fat helps keep the bodies energy levels high for the daily work we performed, but by and large that is…
For the plus-size industry as someone who was in this category as a teen/young person: the heyday of the older models in plus-size clothing coincided with the time when mainstream (as wealthy folks could always find something eventually) plus-size was fugly asexual clothes that fit poorly and actually made fat women…
