So ... my takeaway is:

Perhaps men are perfectly capable of handling domestic shit if their spouse dies but women have been told that can’t be true and therefore don’t believe it? Sure, things will be scaled back — do children really need to eat every single day? — but no one is going to starve. Much.

This kid just stumbled into immortality — there will forevermore be a footnote in every exhibition catalog related to this work explaining the damage to the bottom right corner. He will be able to bring his grandchildren to a museum someday and say, “Look at page seven! That “clumsy idiot” was me ... your old man is…

It could be witches! Some Evil Witches!

In those cases, the police were forced to bring the injured to a hospital first before the jail would accept them. That probably saved some lives over the years.

Interestingly enough, during the Baltimore ugliness earlier this year I remember reading that the jails there would routinely refuse to accept clearly injured prisoners from the police — they obviously didn’t want to be holding the body at the end of the day and sharing responsibility for the deaths. I’m sure this…

I take it this shining example of journalism that fully contextualized the video and didn’t seek to sensationalize it out of context will be a cornerstone of the argument to open these closed archives?

Given that he’s been dealing with this crap (cf. Willow & Tara/Oz/Kennedy; Buffy & Angel/Spike; etc. ad naseum) since before many of those giving him it now were born, I am inclined to believe his statement.

I had the experience of getting cited during one of these "sting" operations — and I checked the guy's ID (I've always been a bit suspicious of whether he had two cards; they basically admitted they were fishing for a pretext to fine the grocery store and the whole thing seemed fishy). Fortunately, I was able to…

Do Si Dos are ambrosia spiced with peanut butter.

Good points, although the propaganda often was more important (and intermittently uniform) than the reality of conditions in driving the actions of the other side — as was the case with the early Soviet effort to recruit inside the African American community on the basis of contrasting U.S. social injustices with the…

Quite true — in all seriousness, I think it's likely that most of the civil rights and gender equality victories of the twentieth century in the United States were in part made possible by the every-present specter of Communism (whether that fear was of being too much like "them" or not as advanced morally/socially).

Imagine if this had happened before the end (hiatus?) of the Cold War — Republicans would be authorizing free abortion vouchers for everyone because "Anti-abortion is anti-freedom."

The only way to stop a bad guy in a clown costume is with a good guy in a clown costume ... if you make wearing clown costumes criminal, only criminals will have clown costumes ... first they came for our clowns, next the mimes ...

Wait — if it's that guy, these posts were probably written by algorithm.

The Lord moves in mysterious ways — he just can't get enough of those syncopated rhythms.

So, who is going to be the brave lawmaker to propose an change to the proposed law granting an exemption to members of Congress? Or are they just going to rely on the traditional workarounds of selective enforcement and blaming a staffer if all else fails?

This is almost certainly the origin — I would also imagine that the name was originally coined by a female because, let's face it, men don't normally consider whether a room's isolation/lighting/etc. makes it more or less likely that they will be sexually assaulted. It's also likely that same inability to empathize…

I believe Sam the Eagle did the follow-up news segment on the rampant under-the-clothes nudity epidemic:

Stjepan Šejić is all kinds of awesome, although I'm more interested in his Sunstone comic that will apparently get the print treatment this winter.
