Inject that straight into my veins, please.

Right? t’would be nice.

From the standpoint of the faculty it doesn’t matter who’s pissing in the pool, because the pool, while a nice extra perk for students and a draw for sentimental alumns, is run by Athletic Facilities and has fuckall to do with our academic mission.

I could have seen that a few years back, but I suspect the day is very rapidly approaching when they will have a tough time luring Grandpa out of his ensuite toilet, much less the White House.

It’s just Tomatoface, a well-known troll who likes to push what he thinks are liberal talking points to the point of satire. Sadly, he doesn’t understand geopolitics well enough to do a good job on this particular topic.

what on earth is the source of this gif? I must know immediately.

I would imagine that people are really upset by the Turkey news, but it’s a complicated situation with a ton of convoluted political backstory and it’s just easier to rail at Ellen for perceived crimes against etiquette.

Don’t forget “paid shill for Elizabeth Warren!” I got that one the other day, too.

That one got an actual out-loud guffaw from me when I read about it the other day.

I acknowledge even the lowest of hanging fruit with a grateful star.

I loathe this man every single day upon waking for making me into the kind of person who actively hates another human being with every fiber of my character. Christ, the poor Kurds.

Seriously, this is horrifying in the extreme. The US is now officially a rogue state. Christ.

If I may, as someone who’s spent long years teaching on a few college campuses: shutting down invited guest speakers does not equal students not having access to opposing viewpoints. Only a bare minimum of students attend such lectures, which are external to the college purpose and fully voluntarily organized on the…
