And with that, we can end this conversation confident there is no evidence to suggest the Dayton attack was motivated by his political ideology or spurred on by the words and actions of politicians.

If you read those words as a call for, as you put it, a “communist revolution” then your brain is made of sawdust.

Ok. Let’s play this game right now, so we can get it over with.

Yes, the Dayton shooter’s social media posts were politically progressive. But that is irrelevant because—and I will revise this take if new information is presented—there is no evidence that his terror attack was politically motivated. If may have been an…

I haven’t met anybody who is truly shocked at swearing--really. They are really only shocked on behalf of other people. - Stephen Fry

The MIL uses her phone in speakerphone mode almost exclusively. She’s also convinced Amazon and the CIA are spying on her. I think they, like the rest of us, can’t help but overhear her phone conversations. 

I like that they are attempting to build a viable editorial product *and* a viable business model. Compared to the legacy media conglomerates attempting to trash both and delusional start-ups bleeding VC cash and foundation grants until they can find a new scam, the Athletic is a God damn beautiful thing.

This is like saying “Those who sympathize with heavy metal music but who deplore loud noises...”

White nationalist ideology exists to be violent. 

Truly, comrade, you shall retire to the finest dacha.

TRUMP: All in all, I enjoyed my visit to Toledo and would recommend visiting it again in the future.

TEACHER: I thought you went Dayton.

TRUMP: Yeah, Dayton, that’s what I meant.

Remember when you were done with middle school and you were like woo hoo, we’re done with middle school?

In fairness, regular Watergate was also stupid. One time, they locked themselves in a liquor cabinet while waiting until everyone left the Watergate hotel ballroom to sneak into the DNC. Most of their bugs didn’t work, which is why they went in the night they were caught. And they were caught because they tapped open…

I don’t know if it’s true either. I don’t. How can I know? How can anyone really know? But I think it’s interesting that so many people think it’s true. It’s interesting. You know, I have a friend Jim. He’s a big, big—very big—guy. Very substantial. He used to go to Rep. Cummings’ house almost every year. Bar-b-ques,…

Even the thing she got “right” in the debate, race relations in American, was actually underwhelming when you break down her solution. A $500B reparations plan works out to one-time payment of about $11,000 for each of the roughly 43 million African-American residents of the United States.

That hardly seems like a…

Because someone who thinks the mental health should be treated by preachers instead of medical science should not be in a position (like the presidency) to influence public health policy.

The wordmark should be in comic sans. That way both LA teams could have taken something from Dan Gilbert.

Except her entire motivation for speaking truth to power was her girlfriend broke up with. She wasn’t fighting the system for justice. She was fighting the system out of narcissism. 

I’m team daydream on this, but this is the best argument I’ve heard for the flashback theory. I kind of want to see it again to see if my perception changes. The thing that keeps me in the daydream camp is the way Lee dented the side of the car like it was made of silly putty when Cliff through him. That was pure…

I thought everyone in Election was a villain?

Tracy’s “relentless drive and obnoxious self-confidence” were objectively gross.
