Just wanna say thank you for continuing Politics Corner after the Kinjapocalype. It’s one of the only things that keeps me coming back to this site now.

Politics Corner - DACA edition. Well-sourced rumblings suggest that Trump is gearing up to end the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals act, because of course he is. This targets the DREAMERs, who were brought to America as children, many of whom remember no other home. This allows these Americans to seek…

I used the same tactic in reverse to kill the incipient nickname “Lumpy”. Someone called me that while we were hanging out, and a few others laughed.

“It only takes me 30 seconds to convert somebody wearing Patagonia and driving a Prius that they should never smoke indoor weed again.”

So, we ARE financing the wall. Trump’s constant claims that we would not shoulder any of the cost are wrong. Now, I understand the supporters will say that it will pay for itself with reduced violence and drug- and human-trafficking across our borders, but it’s a wall. Unless we construct a forcefield (a la Star Trek)…

It all depends on how hot the people committing the incest are. Oh sure, when the Lannisters do it it’s gross and horrifying, but as soon as Emilia Clarke gets in on it, suddenly everyone’s happy.

Boy, y’all aren’t even trying to keep spoilers out of headlines, huh? Kinja’s changed you, man.

You have to understand - this large building was not designed to shelter against adverse weather. It was designed to shelter against taxes.

The disciples said to him, “Where are we to get enough bread in the desert to feed so great a crowd?” ³⁴Jesus asked them, “How many loaves have you?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.” ³⁵Then ordering the crowd to sit down on the ground, ³⁶he took the seven loaves and the fish; and after giving thanks he ate…

So, I went to a Catholic church in a pretty affluent area growing up. I remember our priest talking about that verse, and basically saying that Jesus didn’t really mean it the way it sounds. The fact that this annoyed me at age 9 was probably a sign of where my politics were going.

We can dance if we want to

A friendly reminder that the Texas Senators who vehemently opposed federal relief for Hurricane Sandy are all about that big government cheddar when it comes to their home turf:

Here’s the flooding near me:

“We didn’t mean OUR church!”

“We are prepared to shelter people once the cities and county shelters reach capacity.”

Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
