I thought he rescued people with helicopters.

I think that about all the kids who are clearly being forced to perform in YouTube videos by their parents. Stuff like a little girl being filmed wearing dozens and dozens of dress-up costumes in the same room. My daughter watches them a lot and there’s nothing specific in those videos that I can justify telling her…

Incentive crime? WTF dude. Look, I’m not thrilled with the idea of gender transition surgery for prisoners either* but I think you’re underestimating the hardship of a long prison term if you’re really expecting people to start committing serious crimes just so they get the government to pick up the tab for their…

Did anybody expect any different? Brown’s never been much of a liberal and we’re teetering precariously on the edge of purpleness, anyway, and have done steadily since we nominally turned blue. The influence of inland hillbillies, beginning around the Davis recall, isn’t going away, and now we’ve got self-professed…

Is there any way to disable autoplay vids?

I got to something like the third page of the book (because I felt a need to see why people were bonkers over it), where she was in Vancouver and got on a freeway to go into Portland so she could go to Seattle. THAT IS NOT HOW THIS AREA WORKS. You absolutely do not go from Vancouver into Portland for the sole purpose…

As a fat person, I would really like to see decent basics. A fucking white button down that doesn’t immediately pop open at my boobs. Jeans that aren’t jeggins- or “mom jeans”. Tee shirts and cardigans that aren’t priced 3 times as much as the skinny version (ahem-Old Navy) Just plain, well tailored clothes. Jesus, is…

You’ve just made it weird.

there seems to be a big discrepancy between “everything in their apartment is broken and they’re infested with rodents and bugs [and they’re hoarders or something]” and “there’s no problem thanks we’re good”.... i want follow-up on this story

Barstow is the most depressing place I’ve ever driven through. Mojave is a close second.

You sound like a nut. An afro is a hairstyle that can only be achieved IF YOUR HAIR IS SUFFICIENTLY AFRICAN TEXTURED. PERIOD. There is no “black image,” there are lots of different kinds of Black people. If, in fact, your dad is a MIXED man who looks white, HE IS NOTHING LIKE DOLEZAL. You describe yourself as a mixed,…

i love the show, but i get my enjoyment from hating pretty much everyone. every character. except maybe ray.

How awful do you have to be for other men in the 1960s to think you were awful?

Like I get that this happens with some regularity but I can’t imagine allowing my own 5-year-old to fly alone. Given how often airlines lose my luggage there is no way I’m trusting them with my kid.

My 5 year old took the bus to school for the first time today and I spent the day shaking and stress vomiting at work. I think putting him on an airplane alone would actually kill me.

Probably after exhausting the subjects of farts, butts, super heroes, and pokemon, they proceeded to do a round of “Show me your passport and I’ll show you mine”. They liked each other’s passport better and shenanigans ensued.

AHHHHHH

I understand why, legally, they are required to pay. It’s sound law and 99 times out of 100 it serves a good purpose.

Yeah ditto back at you.

I will come to your hood and defy their athleisure with my athleisure, which is a pair of oversized capri pants from the thrift store and an unmatching baggy brown t-shirt with a fading strawberry decal over a sports bra that is holding enough moisture to save a small country from drought and a podgy gut. With black…
