No kidding. Either John was just happy to get a grand to off-set some monstrous insurance deductible or Universal Plumbing is a union shop and the $1000 really did help because the folks he pays dues to every month had enough bargaining power to allow him to take advantage of non-predatory insurance. Either way, I…

Bevin got a liberal arts undergrad degree (Asian studies, I think) and has no doubt taken civics himself at least once. Is he crooked? Definitely. Blinded by the prosperity gospel? Absolutely. Stupid? Unfortunately not. He knows full fucking well what kind of damage genuine understanding of civics and science and…

People who say “females” instead of “women” solidly irk me. And she seems to be a bigot.

Eh, maybe not. Most people receiving assistance already have jobs and are just very underemployed or poorly compensated for their labor.

The use of “rev.” without including “dr.” could be viewed as just an odd omission or error but this is trump. Either he can’t be bothered to research the correct honorific or he flat won’t call a black man “doctor”. Ugh, who are we kidding, it’s probably both.

Well, they did say it was ready for “gifting”. The goal was not to create something kinda classy that you’d want to keep. They want you to buy a jillion of them and dump them on friends and family so that he can say he sold the most eggs. Look for an E.T. Atari-style landfill packed with that garbage in the years to…

A few things...

Or the pristine garage-kept presence of that hyundai in the walking dead.

That seemed less like product placement and more like a recruitment video in a green screen universe. Life looked pretty nice at that weirdly immaculate target.

You are absolutely correct. My heart is with all of our KY teachers but bevin and his croneys will definitely not yield or compromise on this, as is evidenced by the secretive and hurried legislation last night (hilariously buried in a bill about sewage). The whole situation makes him look bad so his next step will be…

So rather that having it at the checklane where folks probably don’t dare pick it up for fear of being noticed and scorned by the bajillion other people waiting in line it will now be in the usually abandoned magazine section where anyone (including those chaste and innocent children who believe that babies come from…

It really seems like they are grasping at straws here - nothing out of bounds, desperate and ungrounded lashing out. These are the death throes, right? <she said, hopefully>

Entirely possible. And if he does know about it the first words put of his mouth will be about whether this march is bigger than his inauguration. His aides will say, “heavens, no!” and he will go back to coloring outside the lines in his Big Boys Book of Trucks or whatever else his base praises him for. I feel…

Solid recommendation. I would also put Frank’s Wild Years out there. Little bit of everything on that one, plus you get Marc Ribot.

Not sure if this is good news. From what I’ve heard, this Brian fellow is a very naughty boy.

Definitely this. I also voted aganist that smug asshole and was shocked and utterly depressed when I found out the next day how few people I knew voted.

I am guessing not a thing. Making America Great, right?

Not a Nazi, but cut from the same cloth. This scumbag candidate for the AG of Kentucky is actually saying he would kill a state representative who opposes the NRA.

No kidding, right? I live in a neighborhood called Schnitzelburg. It’s kinda cute now but in 1900 that was DEFINITELY not the intention. More of a “Beware! Here be kraut papists!”.

Yes, the tattoo is...something, but people should lay off the guy’s middle-aged body. I’m no fan of Affleck but body shaming a dude for a having a belly or man-boobs is kinda shitty. In his interview with Esquire a bit ago Brendan Fraser sounded so depressed and defeated by his experiences trying to maintain a…
