I just find the obsession with building and upgrading nukes a bit pointless when we live in an age when your economy, services, and military can grind to a halt from a single keystroke.

One group raises money for worthy causes, will blow of steam and frustration in a symbolic ‘hexing’, and will do no actual harm to anyone, vs one group protecting serial rapists and paedophiles, trying to deny people their legal and human rights, and using their unprovable religious beliefs to insist the first group…

And not to mention the fact that the precedents the GOP has been setting are far more brazen, cynical, and potentially devastating long-term. With Garland, their obstruction was obstruction for obstruction’s sake and literally nothing more: there were no objections raised against Garland, real or imagined. The…

We choose to make fun of Elon and do the other things, not because they are hard, but because they are easy.

The toaster oven from Breville that LH lauded all last year does a great job with smaller amounts of bacon.

Partly, I would imagine that having been a journalist for 50 years he understands the currency of words, how they can shape or dismantle an argument, and chooses to think long and carefully about what he is going to say.

A third option is that Williams was intentionally ratcheting up the situation in a fruitless attempt to heighten her own level of play and intensity, and to intimidate her young opponent, because those things have worked in the past. They didn’t work yesterday.

I may not have hit the nail on the head with my word choice here, I’ll admit, but I don’t think the article is balanced, it’s a puff job of Serena.  She lost 6-2, 6-4, and this controversy happened in the second set.  Wouldn’t it be more fair to say that Serena wasn’t feeling it today, wasn’t having her best match,…

Can we please stop with the Serena worship? She’s a titan of tennis, a superb athlete, but she’s not without flaws, without her faults. She’s petulant, and this isn’t the first or worst instance of abusing an official in her career.

This was so hard to watch. I hope Naomi Osaka knows she would have won this match on her own if all of this shit hadn’t happened.

I love butter emails on freeze peach.

Politics Corner - Cancelling Scheduled Raises for Federal Workers to Bring Down the Deficit Trump Exploded with 1%er Tax Cuts While Proposing another 1%er Tax Cut on the Same Damned Day Edition. The headline already gives you a pretty good thumbnail. But Trump is blocking a scheduled 2.1% raise for federal employees,…

1) I find it funny one of the recommended articles is “3-ingredient brownies, easier than a box”

2) Have you made the Baker’s chocolate one-pot brownies? They take no more time than a box, but they are SOOOOO much better, a much better cocoa flavor. 1 pan, melt chocolate and butter. take the pan off heat, add sugar,…

Eat the rich.

Spoiler Alert: there is a difference between making the cops all bad and racist (what Boots apparently wants) and ripping off a “cops are all great” dream sequence like the last few minutes of the movie.  Confining all racism to one Fred Weller was lazy, but having everybody band together to throw him in jail goes so…

No, no, no!

Since he avoids doing anything that would identify him and carefully avoids mentioning how he actually got his money, I’d guess daddy gave him a real estate portfolio.

“Senate Democrats are working to delay confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. I’m sure they’ll pull this off successfully because they are good at holding to their commitments.”
