Also, the person she “left” her child with was that child’s other parent. If it was a succession of hired nannies I might be willing to entertain some speculation (although being raised primarily by paid help has worked well enough for enough people for long enough that I’m not even really ready to raise an eyebrow)…

And this right here is what pisses me the fuck off about our parenting culture in America. Parents (well, mostly mothers) are expected to be able to fill every single need for their children single-handedly. A parent is expected to be a caretaker, teacher, cook, laundress, cleaner, food source, and crafter-in-chief.…

Oh shit, God just escalated the war on Christmas.

My best coup of this type was when the old coworker guy on the long car ride with me chose to rant about how disgraceful it was for Parliament to debate gay marriage while there were so many other problems facing the UK at the time. I agreed with him and said, “You’re absolutely right, it’s not even worth debating,…

I was in an argument with someone and it was actually something that I felt was interesting so I was willing to stay in it for awhile, until we reached an impasse. and then that’s what I said - we have reached an impasse.

Donald Trump on Twitter:

I know, but if you’re clever with it, you can convince people of a concept that they would absolutely not agree to otherwise.

I’ve started just going “I TOTALLY agree” and then stating the opposite opinion. It’s hilarious. People are like “I don’t think you understood me...” and then you can be like “Oh my goodness, you’re so right” and restate your opposite opinion. People have no idea what to do.

But if a lion had been killed, that would be a big cat-astrophe.

Michele Dauber is right. He can do just as much damage to women in civil court. Get him off the bench.

I have no interest in that whole situation. I get harassed all the time on it. But it doesn’t affect me and I just have no interest in it.

That’s a big part of the point of this speech. Donald Trump’s ego is extremely sensitive. He cannot resist being baited.

Yes, but when Trump gets mad he does stupid stuff like attacking the Khans. Making him lose his temper is a good thing.

So don’t call people on their bullshit and evil because if you do they’ll be bullshitty and evil?

Those of us still gray feel even more pathetic

She’s a vile piece of cunt garbage that makes me wish their was a hell.

Zephyr Teachout has the best name that has ever existed. It took me a while and some research, back when I first heard of her, to believe it was her actual, real name.

The debate over safe spaces, too, has become cartoonized, a shorthand way to complain about privileged millennials

I greatly enjoyed the Sanders die-hards during the convention who were so focused and zealous that their tone became “the biggest impediment to Bernie Sanders being elected is Bernie Sanders and if it wasn’t for Bernie Sanders, Bernie Sanders would be the Democratic candidate for president right now. Down with Bernie…
