My wife and I call is XXXmas. We don’t have kids.

The money, and their amassed wealth, doesn’t really concern me. I have no problem with other people being filthy rich, or with wealthy people dominating government. It’s how it’s always been, so I’m used to it by now. However, I do take issue with the industry these people represent, in the main. I’m tired of living…

If you’re a man and are getting away with white pants and baldness, shit is working out for you.  

So, she’s going to be running everything except the oil and the army men, right?

Jesus, that picture. I love it so much.

Once upon a time, I’m not sure when, Clinton said she wouldn’t rule out late-term abortion bans that lined up with Roe. That made her FUCKING EVIL INCARNATE according to many. And somehow that made the regime that is currently taking shape more palatable, because Clinton wasn’t a real liberal anyway and anyway there…

We should all take the time our of our busy day to enjoy the opportunity to hear our leadership speak to us in complete sentences. Like glaciers, polar bears, and Wall Street regulation, it’ll be a thing of the past very shortly.

He has a hot cabinet position in Canada anyway...

Uh, it sounds like you’ve had a job, so I don’t think you need help imagining reasons people get fired. Many of those reasons may not seem like “good” reasons from another person’s point of view. Sometimes people are blind to the failings of their children or their family. So, it’s nice that you’re rational about…

Maybe. On the other hand, working with friends (and people you know well), just like living with friends, can be a disaster. What will happen to your friendship when you have to fire your friend’s daughter? I think family (and friends) and work/money should be kept as far apart as possible.

Not trying to pick a fight, but I’m not sure what you’re driving at with this article you posted. Several of the quotes seem to suggest that the niqab is used by (male) headmasters at religious schools to stymie integration and assimilation. The practice is aimed at young women, teenagers, who have very little agency.…

I wouldn’t ascribe full-covering to an entire “culture.” This is a very small and specific subculture; it does not represent Islam as a whole. 

The proper response is always to 1) punch a hippie, then 2) shift further to the right.

The old guard like Biden and Dean should “retire” to states where flipping the statehouse is a real possibility. Political missionary work.

In this age of decline, you can be anything you want with enough Instagram and Twitter followers...

Yes!!!!! Zombie eyes.

It’s whatshername. She isn’t a model.

We really are the worst.

No one said it was a smart move in terms of how it was done. In fact I don’t think it’s the sort of thing one could have done right now within the normal parameters of diplomacy. It took an idiot to do it. But this whole One China fiction is a relic of the Cold War (and a different era of Taiwan’s government) that is…

I’m counting on him doing a few things right over the next four years, even by mistake or for the wrong reasons.
