You’d think all the money Texas saves by banning abortions, keep transsexuals out of bathrooms, and making sure you can walk into TGIFridays with you AR-15, they would have enough money to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

“FEMA’s going to be there for years” FEMA director Brock Long told CNN this morning.

As an AV clubber and a Jez reader, I’ll defend them - the particular style of AV Club comments really won’t work on Kinja. Their jokes were often in threads of hundreds of comments, each referring to the last. But there’s no nesting of comments here, and comments aren’t sorted by who they’re replying to, but by time.

We should not see Seth’s participation as legitimizing this movement. Rather, he chose to be an ally of his black teammates. To center the focus of Monday’s demonstration solely on Seth is to distract from what our real focus should be: listening to the experiences and the voices of the black people who are using…

Double Fuck Scott Walker

Fuck Paul Ryan.

The game day experience at Camp Randall is fantastic. If you get a chance to go you should. Then have a beer by the Memorial Union on the shores of Lake Mendota afterward.

She’s done a wonderful thing here

And it feels like it’s the way to start making this difference in the league

As a society, is it fair to say that we’ve always had a less problematic reaction to lesbians than gay men?
Lesbians are often the terraformers in society

Write to the company and let them know about your experience. That wasn’t okay. Uber rides shouldn’t be stressful.

I agree that amicable divorces are by far the best for kids, but being rich doesn’t sort out the fact that your science project is in the wrong house. Not sure you mean by “don’t parent just teach,” I am not saying this shit out loud to parents, but do you think I should just keep my trap shut and stick to my subject…

Speaking as a teacher: the mid-week switch is hard on children who don’t want to move all their shit every few days. Imagine a job that has homework and a life that involves sports and such, and then imagine having to drag everything around all the time without a car.

No, it’s not the least bit grammatically incorrect, you pretentious nincompoop. It’s a valid stylistic choice. And starting a sentence with “and” can often be a very effective rhetorical device.

No, the most likely scenario is that he will resign, in an attempt to stave-off the unpicking of a lifetime of financial crimes by the Russian investigation.

Why are you feeling sorry for this woman? She made her bed, so let her ass sleep in it.

Can you imagine Trump being able to sit through any performance more intellectually demanding than a Monster Truck Rally? He’d be like the most fidgety three year old ever without the consolation that ‘he’ll grow out of it.’

That response is dripping with shade. Well done, Kennedy Center. Well done.

more evidence of your blind privilege: the fact that you can look at these issues as merely “political” and not “life threatening.” enjoy your cake.

The expression “blood is thicker than water” originally meant that the bond between comrades is stronger than family, as in bathing in the blood of your enemies is a pretty powerful bonding experience, and it has been bastardized into meaning the exact opposite.

Unsolicited advice from someone who survived a very necessary estrangement from her own mother: beware of anyone who attempts to convince you that you should be able to look past this. I wish someone had told me 20 years ago that “blood is not thicker than safety.” Thank you and good luck.
