Facebook has never been consistent with Facebook's policies, what else is new?

Oh man, I wouldn’t want to be Mark Zuckerberg when Mark Zuckerberg comes looking for him.

... any significant reductions of human rights as compared to the baseline conditions in the country ...

The toxic impact of Karl Rove’s strategies today cannot be understated.

Will nobody at Jezebel defend the royals? I knew I would discredit them eventually, but the completeness of my victory brings me no joy. Alexander must have felt this way when he realized there were no more worlds to conquer.

So long as it’s cash up front....

A lie repeated a million times becomes truth or something like that.

I still credit Dick Cheney for cementing the “I said this bullshit eight times, so that makes it true!!!” tecnique.

We only care about Muslims when they can be used to further US geopolitical goals. No one cares that Modi was barred from entry into the US for anti-Muslim pogroms in India. Our allies get a pass.

It’s not just that Modi has a Drump sized undeserved ego, but he’s also a similarly bigoted fascist.

The actual story is probably a lot gayer than that. He cut off his ear because of fight with another painter he was working and living with named Paul Gaugin. Sure there’s no explicit evidence that they were in a romantic relationship, but there’s intense historical speculation and also have you ever cut your ear off

Like she wentto her LA dr for help with weight gain and he prescribed her some magical potion to help her drastically reduce weight, but it’s definitely not

Kramer was instant. I would say Lizzo’s is faster than Ellen’s because corroboration with Lizzo came so quickly. Until this article I was still on the fence, but it’s definitely starting to look like it’s true... though I still don’t know if it’s Lizzo directly for most of this or someone acting on her behalf (for

Perhaps not as dramatic, but Jonah Hill? Supposedly there were rumors about him and of course Jay Baruchel’s prescience but I think for the most part he had a solid reputation.

I am trying to think of the last time a celebrity went from “seems nice and cool” to “holy crap, what a nasty psycho” this quickly. Maybe Ellen? Michael Richards (Kramer)? Do you all remember any other public image downfalls like this?

Glad the veil has been lifted. Maybe now Jez can stop trying to shove her down all of our throats like one of those vagina bananas...

I mean this is the only good thing in Bush Legacy I say let it burn. Bush doesn’t deserve any good legacies. He was a horrible president. The only good thing he did was topple Sadam of course that was just for oil.

Tit for tat. The defence budget that the GOP creams into should now become a line-by-line review. With a separate vote on every single line.

It’s almost like all lives do not, in fact, matter.
