I agree, her fans are excellent targets. They’re used to seeing the audience get freebies and prizes under their seats (“you get a car! and you get a car!”) so cash prizes for signing up online would be a natural fit.

Secretary of State Yosemite Sam was chosen because of his close personal relationship with Putin. Aside from Russia and Saudi Arabia, the Trumpistanis do not know or care what goes on in other countries. I live in Cambodia and one of my Khmer friends asked what Trump was going to do to curb the increasing influence of…

I believe the term you are looking for is “kakistocracy”.

And the most blatantly hypocritical. It’s like every shit move that the Republicans make has a corresponding sound bite from McConnel or Ryan accusing (often incorrectly) the Democrats of doing the same thing as an excuse for stonewalling the Obama administration’s legislative agenda

accurate, except it’s more like $17.50.

I feel like the really poetic justice here would be for an inscrutable transdimensional creature to find the people responsible for this and impale them forever on a tree of thorns.

“They took all the trees Put ‘em in a tree museum And they charged the people A dollar and a half just to see ‘em...”

More about both.

Even better, if you don’t just not-hate birds and actively love them: plantnbird-friendly trees in your yard (northern bayberry and winterberry in the Northeast) and read about Agroforestry. This kind of farming creates a small forest that many tropical birds love and use. If you’ve ever heard about shade-grown…

One of the reasons that JD Salinger became reclusive, apparently, was that Catcher in the Rye was cited in a few serial killings and murder cases — there were at least three. Granted, we all had to read it in high school so the likelihood of it influencing someone in a nefarious way was far higher

This case has always been confusing and language issues seem to have played a role in her statements.

I think that she will be deported posthaste, which will mean the state isn’t responsible for her upkeep.

You know....it’s easy to be obstructionists and say no and bitch about a president you hate for being black...I mean Kenyan....sorry...a Democrat.

Nick Carter was accused of rape, not Aaron Carter.

I didn’t see the film til I was an adult and was literally like HOLY FUCK WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS? MICKEY ROONEY WITH BUCK TEETH AND SLITTED EYES? WHY DO PEOPLE LOVE THIS MOVIE AGAIN, BECAUSE I’M PRETTY FUCKING SURE THE WHOLE OF CHINA WOULD BE OFFENDED BY THIS and that was it. I didn’t finish watching and I have no plan…

Exactly! And it would’ve made perfect sense, too, because that movie really was culturally emblematic both because of its sociopolitical context and because it was just so freaking ENTERTAINING.

Omg that’s right, he was one of Lou Pearlman’s kids.

Republicans could burn down the St. Jude Children’s Hospital and not lose any support with their base.
