Obligatory XKCD:

Kind of sad that there needs to be a charity to help teachers with school supplies

But isn’t the real problem that the cab is the wrong size? #savetheregularcabs

Damn, now i have to scroll all the way back up to give you a star. This deserves a star...

There’s not enough lipstick for this pig:

As long as you keep the “Latest” option available, so we can have a version of the site that isn’t a UX fever nightmare, I could care less about the layout.

It’s Klavika CH.

Very helpful public service announcement about /latest, although some of us were quite happy just typing “jal” into the address bar and autocompleting our way to the site as we knew it. The new format objectively sucks and posting an article that ridicules those who are reasonably irked by that is rather unkind.

No dammit Torch! You should have fought for us. You should have argued against the change to the bitter end and gone down in flames in support of your loyal followers and readers.

I mean this is the same company that gave Megyn Kelly and Donald…

sale and leaseback is enormously common as a way to boost your balance sheet on paper (vs in reality) because the building goes from being a non-liquid asset to being a monthly expense that can be walked away from.

the stock market loves it, which should go a long way to explaining what a stupid fucking idea it is.  

Ann Curry was more comforting reading the news than Matt Lauer ever was, even before I knew he was a giant monster of a (barely) human being.  She got hosed and rogered but good and NBC owes her one giant apology.

Hey, this is America. We can be stupid in LOTS of different ways at the same time!

Influencer, is a polite term for narcissist. Avoid them at all costs.
