ending on this note is a masterstroke for the article / caps my shit week off with a petty grin so big thanks to Kara.

That’s good, but come on: “You don’t get to cape for white supremacist Batman and homophobic Robin and then use the language of the brown and queer to push your shitty television programming,” is a sentence that will outlive us all.

I didn’t think the CIA had it in them to be so salty. Bless.

My husband used the word shade around his parents, so I felt the need to give a 10-minute explanation of the word, its origin, and correct usage— specifically throwing shade vs. a read. Near minute nine I realized I misjudged my audience and no one cared. I still finished strong and feel like I made the world a better…

“While we’re out here throwing “direct shade,” I think I’ll enjoy a nice bowl of piping hot ice cream, followed by a refreshing bone-dry shower and call up the president-elect for a bit of moral guidance.”

Armie Hammer always makes me think of an anthropomorphic box of baking soda.

So the most important thing about this movie is that Hollywood is coming clean that Amy Adams and Isla Fisher are the same person?

That’s an 8.2% rate of return, without even factoring in the cost of a climate-controlled room for 16 years.

Not the first S(t)einfeld to teeter on the edge of seventeen.

Yeah, someone also wrote a long thing about how “That’s not how communication works,” because I dismissed all the nasty replies and then posted an apology to those people that were offended. What was I supposed to do, star all the mean comments out of some masochistic impulse and then reply?

“I’m almost embarrassed to admit how much I related to this movie, as a man several years older than its central character”

Urban planning and infrastructure falls under the purview of design, Darcoby.

Are you attempting to draw a causal correlation between a handful of people tweeting death threats and the minimum necessary security required for any president?

The “presidential retreat” is always subject to extraordinary security concerns. This is primarily why presidents that don’t behave as egomaniacs locate them…

Who do you think is going to cover the cost in the end? Working class people who have to live and commute in the entire metropolitan area, through tolls and taxes. But fuck ‘em, amiright? 

It’s to preserve the legitimacy of government and the unitary power of the Prime Minister for one thing. If they did it like a proper country they’d have to have an elected president who would actually have a mandate to exercise the same powers that the Queen doesn’t exercise. Plus, as the post notes, the Queen gets…

I don’t get the point of a monarchy without power. Symbolic monarchies are useless.

This entire article reads like someone’s got an article to sell tbh. Thank god for people like me who know the writers better than they know themselves

I prefer my exploitation of vulnerable people when they’re not famous, like Hoarders and Intervention, thank you very much!
