Uh, isn’t “Dawn Summers” a human avatar of an immortal ancient construct “The Key” transformed by the monks of whatever-the-hell to trick Buffy into protecting it/her from Glorificus? If so, she’s like the epitome of cougar (Xander’s thing, if I recall) and also WAYYY out of his league (also a Xander thing, come to…

Is the image at the top of the article indicative of the quality of the current art in the Buffy run?? Story might be great, but, uh, something’s off about those proportions.

If Detroit and the State of Michigan are smart, they’ll do it as a bond offer - Ford pays it all back with low interest within a specified time, or they’re on the hook for all of it with substantial fees, interest and penalties added. As the world economy and the auto industry stand, I don’t know if I’d trust Ford to…

Yeah, this smacks of some half-baked revenge plot or an attempt to manipulate the Tesla share price for personal gain. I get if there was an investigation with actual findings of wrongdoing (ya know, proof and all) with charges filed and arrests made and Tesla hushed it up, that would be an issue shareholders should…

It’s telling that this is Yemen’s war, and Yemen’s infrastructure, culture and populace will suffer as a result, but the side our government picked had nothing to do with Yemen or it’s people and everything to do with ensuring access to Saudi oil and airbases.

Pure.Horse.Shit.

So...Omarosa isn’t simply the race-traitor that everybody knew her as from the campaign, we’re supposed to believe she was this shrewd double-agent all along, really sidling up close to the guy for all that time to get the real dirt and release it now, a couple months before midterms?

Thank you for reminding me of the one of the most ridiculous parts of the MCU:  That Tony Stark, as Iron Man, is always flying, fighting or fleeing with a WHOLE OTHER COMPLETE OUTFIT ON under his Iron Man Mark whatever armored suit.  I hope Stark Industries has whole divisions dedicated to breathable, wicking,…

It’s bass-ackwards to me (Oklahoma, notwithstanding) that the thing that got the school’s attention wasn’t the concerned parents rightfully trying to get a consistent bathroom protocol in place for their child, nor the awful discourse in the private Facebook group, but the notion of a <gasp> counter-protest, that…

Just plain Facebook is too public now, so so much of this bogus has migrated to these “private” Facebook Groups. NOBODY at Facebook could have predicted how making groups invite or approval-only could possibly backfire, yet here we are.

This, times thousands and thousands of cancelled and delayed flights.

My big issues with flight delays or cancellations are always related to consistent communication. Why does what the gate agent tells about your options never quite seem to match up with what the customer service phone representative tells you they are? And if you press the issue, or ask enough different people, or…

I love the procedural dancing in that Goodlatte/Nadler clip - these guys aren’t consistent with their own rules of procedure, aren’t consistent with parliamentary procedure and rules of order, aren’t consistent with the law, etc.  Vote ‘em all out and put in some fresh blood, jesus.

I can’t figure out which is the chicken and which is the egg, but the U.S. military spends major funds sponsoring professional sports events...advertisements, giveaways, on-field performances, jet fly-overs and parachute flag deliveries and even preposterous stunts like “reuniting” loved ones with their “secretly”…

Breanna: since there’s so much discussion around charging a person involved in a crime, but not necessarily the main actor, disproportionate charges/overcharging, and references to the case where the man was charged with the death of his accomplice by police, AND since the Root is always addressing police use of force…

This couldn’t have happened to a more deserving fella. My only regret in this is that pulling him off most of the social medias will somewhat devalue his brand, and therefore his net worth, and so those poor Sandyhook families that are suing the shit out of him will probably end up with a smaller damages award.

Yeah, our justice system is deeply flawed. The prosecutor overcharges because it’s a heinous conspiracy and two of the participants are minors and may not see justice, so they go after the adult, and of course overshoot and get no conviction. When they undercharge, we have the whole world whining about how violent…

I’m conflicted on that one, because driving the getaway car certainly seemed to have enabled the crime in this case. I also feel like, unless the evidence is pretty cut and dried to the contrary, that whenever an adult or adults are involved with minors in the commission of a crime, the adults would always bear some…

You missed the kidnapping part of his conviction.  That’s one crime that still allows for the death penalty, at least in states that still have capital punishment, so I’m pretty sure that added some years to the sentence, and probably will be the main issue in eligibility for parole...well, that and the previous…

Came here for this.  Evolution has given us a built-in feedback loop to fight against high levels of CO2 build up in the bloodstream - your breathing speeds up and the ph of your blood changes triggering that “burning” sensation when you over exert yourself exercising.  If a person is still conscious at this point,…
