Looking at him HURTS me. The whole while I’ve been watching him I want to SCREAM at him TO SIT UP FUCKING STRAIGHT. He’s at a funeral for a fucking head of state and is slouching in the pew like he’s a bored 6-year-old at mass. Or like a tired person on the subway.

KFC and cologne : (

The subtlety is key. Poised, yet salty af. Yes Michelle. Serve. 

Pretty much every politician ignored the AIDS crisis in the 80s and early 90s. As for the civil rights act, you’re right in that he campaigned against it to appeal to Texas voters, but as an actual congressman he supported it and voted for the Fair housing act, which got him in trouble with his constituents. He also…

“Decent” doesn’t mean perfect.

Look... I actually owe a lot to HW because he signed the ADA into law, which provided a lot of protections for me and other members of my family who need it.

Yeah. Who has time to drive to the post office whatever a post office is? Well, maybe these people.

“Opting out of voting just means opting in to the system as it currently is.”

This is probably the best article I’ve seen explaining Splinter’s stance on this particular subject. I seriously disagree with it - even if you believe the country is “stuck on autopilot” and voting is too hard and/or soul-crushing, sitting on your hands and waiting for some magical candidate to come and lay waste to…

Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.

Antibiotics contain government nanotechnology that will make us all worship Obama and turn socialist.

I doubt half the people watching Fox even know what leprosy is, other than “bad, Biblical disease.”

In his defense: I mean, it’s what gave her notoriety in the first place.

So, if you don’t ask Monica Lewinsky about the Clinton affair, what other newsworthy topics are there? Does she really think the news consuming public actually cares about another bullshit TED Talk about cyberbullying from a vaguely familiar name?

Jellies were the worst. I learned the hard way that my feet were not made to survive shoes that encased my foot in entirely manmade materials at soccer camp as a youngin. My first pair of cleets were not leather and after a week of running around in humid 100 degree days, the entire soles of my feet peeled off in one…

Kim to her stylist: I would like my whole outfit to be as uncomfortable as humanly possible.
