It feels like that comes with the territory of having a tight network of sites — not all will have the same level of “performance” but together they cross-pollenate and make the whole network stronger.

Speaking of slumlords, can we just talk about the demise of Splinter instead?

Oh, there won’t be one. “I see no compelling reason for any of our sites to be writing about the decision to cease publishing Splinter,” said G/O Media director Paul Maidment in a companywide email though everyone knows it’s nonsense.

I'm just here looking for the Splinter postmortem.

Ummmm.. Why is Splinter gone from the top links?

OK I give up.  Why do you type F to honor a dead Mac charger? 

Pokemon questions would have been out of bounds.

This is so fucking stupid it makes me angry. I’m much more comfortable with Dems’ brand of (fake) “hypocrisy” than Republicans’ signature move of being against gays then fucking guys, or being against infidelity while fucking women other than their wives.

It’s Jeff Bezos waiting to smell his belly button. 

The only thing worse than Donald Trump is that there are people you like who think he’s awesome.

I kind of thought only People Magazine believed people outside of the U.K. gave a shit about British tabloid stories. 

That feeling when you see the headline and think “hum, I wonder if he’s Keith Tkachuk’s younger brother.”

So much pop culture wrapped up in this one post. 

Shep Smith: “Can we stop talking about the blowjob thing already?” 

“This story of Rooney, a famous WAG, going fishing for a clout shark she suspected of secretly selling info culled from her private Instagram account...” is a sentence that would confuse the shit out of anyone who just woke up from a 15-year coma. 

TFW the guy who wrote your autobiography for you now says it should have been titled “The Sociopath”...

It’s funny that in response to severe fire danger PG&E is shutting down power and forcing everyone to light fires.

The supermarket was full at 10pm with people trying to figure out what to buy. If anything this taught us that we as a species will never, ever prepare sufficiently for the effects of climate change.  We’ll want to wait til the sea levels are up 10 feet and then will think to go to the store to pick up some survival…

“Here’s a subpoena. See you in court.”

Read the document.  It’s only because they think Congress is doing everything wrong in the process of letting them tell their side of the story.  If Congress was doing everything right, which means NO IMPEACHMENT, then of course they’d go testify.
