And I should be able to walk home from my nearest subway station drunk out of my mind at 3am without having to worry about getting mugged, but that doesn’t make it a responsible thing do.

Having sex with someone you are worried will try to self-inseminate with your sperm or file a false rape accusation is hardly my definition of “responsible.”

Sewage systems aren’t designed to handle non-degradable waste like rubber products. Toss that shit in a covered trash bin with a liner.

It’s not a moral judgment, just a practical one.

I haven’t heard enough to believe beyond a reasonable doubt that he did either.

If you’re going to be irresponsible enough to sleep with semi-strangers you can’t trust around your used condoms then yea, seems like a next-best solution.

Honestly, this testimony all sounds perfectly reasonable.

Honestly, the President’s suits could usually benefit from a bit more tailoring as well—especially the pants.

We have to put our items in the bagging area before scanning the next item, but the weight of any re-usable bags throws off the calibration. So you can either re-calibrate by entering how many re-usable bags you brought and then weighing them (which doesn’t work half the time), or just plopping it all down and then…

If you’re dumb enough to either (a) ring up all your produce at once, or (b) ring up six separate line items of bananas, that’s probably good enough to get banned from the store.

Season tickets or no, who is dumb enough to expect that to work? I can read my goddamned ticket.

At a certain sized group, I start to prefer taking the assigned seats just to make sure we’re occupying the correct seats and not accidentally stealing someone else’s, but at less than, say, 10 people? Just file in and sit your ass down.*

How the hell did they even get in? At Nats park they lock all the suites and force you to find an usher to let you in after presenting your ticket.

Nats park it’s pretty easy to move up within the same section, at least in the upper deck.

Huh—at the ballpark near me they check the tickets for each section to make sure you’re in the right place, and then do spot checks for people who don’t look like they belong in the seats they take. Anyone who can afford to sit in that nice a section should know better than to bother stealing seats.

Heh—I went to a game over the summer where a bunch of middle school dipshits were in my seats, and it was soccer mom who immediately noticed me standing there befuddled with how to communicate to the youths and straightened out the situation.

If he has to live the rest of his life destitute, that’s fine by me. But he’s built up enough of a constituency that seems likely to survive the election that the financial prospects of a network would look good enough to get some money involved (and it doesn’t necessarily have to be the same backers as the big GOP…

Really covering yourselves in glory here, guys

He has shown himself time and again to be an astute manipulator of financial backers, and Trump News is (sadly) one of the more viable business concepts he will have ever come up with.  

I mean, CNN and other outlets threw away some of those principles over the past year because they did like the guy (or at least the ratings he brought in). So let’s not pretend they have much moral high ground to stand on in the first place.
