Amen. Really, just instill in your kid that it’s not okay to be an asshole, and the rest should fall into line.

I’ve been watching “Future Man” over on Hulu; it’s surprisingly good.  There are so many ways to do a stupid bland story about time travelers trying to prevent the dystopian future they hail from, but this show knows how to keep it interesting.  Anyway, in the future, the mouth is simply known as the “rat hole”…

I could see that too.  After all, why work on your character when you can become a better person simply by shoving different food into your rat-hole?

I wonder if, in the past, these overt displays of racism weren’t so necessary because racism wasn’t being quite so overtly challenged. It’s like long-overdue arguments finally coming to a head.

“Gluten Sensitivities”

The suit the Sandmanns are launching is pretty clearly intended to intimidate, because the last thing they want is anyone digging deeper. So they’re hoping the paper will decide it’s just not worth the trouble.

I don’t know if they expect to get rich from this, but they’re certainly reacting with anger and fury that anyone would DARE subject their precious crotch-fruit* to scrutiny and criticism. They want to make sure that nobody ever tries to do anything of the sort ever again.

It’s not your main point by any stretch, but can I tip my hat to you for rocking the AP test? My mom was an English teacher and she made sure we all knew our English inside and out, and I have a deep and abiding respect for anyone who knows what an objective complement is.

Possibly something like wearing wrist and ankle weights all day long, every day? With those weights, there is no activity that is effort- and stress-free like it ought to be. But instead of a physical burden, it’s more about having to overcome assumptions at every turn that you’re up to no good. Something like that,…

Nail, meet hammer. That’s exactly it.

Yes, it’s ridiculous that the Pentagon cannot be audited.  But that said, it does not follow that they must have $21T that can be applied to other projects.

Kinja screwed up again, this article was almost certainly intended for Clickhole.

The one that gets me is AOC believing that the Pentagon has a $21T money bin we can loot to pay for everything. Remember when the claim was that AOC’s degree in economics would prepare her to talk about economics intelligently? Well apparently her Burlington College education didn’t prepare her to understand a simple…

Trickle-down equality.

Trickle-down equality.

So it’s a ... good thing that Jussie wasn’t attacked out of the blue? A lot of things to process here.

Well said sir.

“This gulf was secondary to the gap between Democrats and Republicans, however. Four out of five respondents who identified as Democrats said blackface was unacceptable.”

“In defense of JEB Stuart, he was a hell of a cavalryman. Though, so was Forrest.”

I love this. I’ve actually thought about trying to flowchart the whole thing — all the possible motivations and qualifiers — but when I realized that all paths lead to “DON’T DO BLACKFACE YOU IDIOT”, I scrapped the project. There was no chance it was going to turn out this good anyway.
