Clinton never really had to go after Sanders the way Trump would have.

His wife’s role in tanking Burlington College - along with the work that a nonprofit run by her daughter (Sanders’ stepdaughter) was hired to do for the school - would have been a liability as well, and would have blunted Trump’s scandals. (I work…

Automation on the manufacturing side and falling prices for commodities like coal and oil pretty much insure that those jobs aren’t coming back, unless we start with the “state-sponsored enterprise” thing. And the environmental impact of that would be nuts - we’d be better off with a guaranteed minimum living wage,…

He allows them to feel like they’re wearing the boot standing on someone else’s neck, that they’ll be able to benefit from insitutionalized cruelty.

Well, police departments certainly won’t have to worry about those pesky DOJ Civil Rights Division investigations.

Anyone know if Sonic the Hedgehog has a composer yet? Seems like a great AA nomination opportunity.

Only if they put him in a colored body stocking, so when they do a closeup of his feet, there are no toes!

And here I was, looking forward to Infinity War: Infinity of a Larger Order

The fact that the server was shut down right after the NYT asked about it, and a new one (with a new domain registration) was brought up within days, and the Alfa systems were literally the first systems to look for the new system seems kinda sketchy.

It’s hard not to picture young Donald as an Edmund-type figure, but with nobody to help him redeem himself.

If the whole notion of securitizing bundles of lawsuits gets going, it’s the environment that all of them will be operating under, unless banning both maintenance and champerty makes a sudden comeback, or it’s a hell of a lot easier to have lawyers engaging in these kinds of suits disbarred. The chances of either is…

If you’re outsmarted by Ryan Lochte, you’re likely at a disadvantage when dealing with a potted plant.

They’ve got one of his masks/prosthetics at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens.

This is the same kind of guy who ends up screaming at a supermarket employee because he or she politely tells him that the express line isn’t for someone with forty items.

On some level, this book is about all of New Jersey, not just some of it. There could be a weekly Big Time Small-Time Dicks feature about New…

The masks and prosthetics were ground-breaking as well, and they received awards for it.
