The only reason I’ve even heard of Jackie Evancho is because I worked at a PBS station and she was on our pledge programming.

This actually sounds kind of cool if you live in a tiny apartment, or a house with a small kitchen and dining area. I know I don’t have room to cook for and host anywhere near 19 people. And you get supervised by someone who can catch mistakes before they happen? It’s especially awesome if they also handle the clean…

He looks like a McPoyle.

Stuff like this always reminds me of the CHiPs Gun Stop.

I mean, I can just watch the WWE Women’s matches for that, and get some decent stunt shows along with it - and none of them are teenagers. Way better.

As a dancer, I really like how the dancy parts fit the music and the routine, instead of looking like randomly inserted wrist-flipping that’s supposed to resemble ballet or something. Her whole performance flowed and was amazing to watch.

I have one that can open the drawers, and will get in there and sleep on the blankets we keep there, but it is literally impossible with our bed for anything other than a cockroach to squeeze under.

Platform bed with drawers. Nobody’s getting under that.

Sharks and Portuguese Man-o-War.

Gators, snakes, alligator snapping turtles, brain-killing amoebas, and flesh-eating bacteria. Just don’t go in the water unless it’s a pool. But also check those for gators. And bears.

They’ve basically turned into a lobby for the gun manufacturers. And every time there’s a mass shooting, gun sales go up.

They all seem to think that the “they” in “if they try to take my guns” is some unarmed, unguarded, singular person in a suit, or something. I’m pretty sure the “they” would be the local SWAT team, which is probably outfitted with military surplus hardware. Maybe the National Guard or the military - you know, if…

I think it’s also designed to prevent them from mentioning studies that indicate that having a gun in the home actually increases your risk of harm, and other secondary effects. Maybe stats about kids and accidental deaths. Not just the actual damage a ballistic projectile does to a person’s body.

This is my mother. She thinks of Fox News like she thinks of MSNBC. It’s insane.

I think it’s also location. No one had ever heard of Sandy Hook before - it’s a small town in a small state. Everyone’s heard of Orlando. Millions of people vacation here every year, and everyone knows Disney. It makes it more real for a lot of people when it’s somewhere they know and somewhere they’ve been. There are…

Yeah, all the gun nuts I know are doubling down, extra-convinced that “Obummer” is coming for their guns. As if, you know, a few handguns and assault rifles would do anything against military hardware if the government were ACTUALLY coming for people’s guns. I think my relatives harbor fantasies of Obama himself…

This was very cathartic for me. I was floor directing our local news show for 10 hours on Sunday, and thus prevented from screaming every time this terrible human being (and her cohort, Governor Voldemort) opened her mouth about the LGBT community. We played the clip of her at the press conference a few times, and I…

I mean, the club’s website just has a statement up now, but before then, it was described on its website as a gay club. All these people who refuse to admit it was a gay club confuse me.

I was in a sorority at a private women’s college. No hazing, no embarrassing pranks - just a little induction ritual done in the sorority house. We had mandatory public service hours and study time (if your GPA was below a certain point). Nothing tortuous or tormenting (unless you count being made to watch Survivor and…

UFC’s going full-on WWE - they’ve even got their own backstage “reporters” for fighter reactions, now.
