This comment was the one that I want.

Narcissists are great. I invited several to check out my new reflection pond in my backyard, boom: instant flower garden.

Damn those pants are super tight , there is no way I would fit into them unless…
I better shape up.

Franken was accused of groping and kissing a number of women against their will. If you’re going to defend him, at least engage with the actual accusations.

Jean hugging Guyger doesn’t bother me. If that’s what he needs—regardless of whether “that” is extending genuine forgiveness or performative pandering—in order to heal, then let him have it.

After I read yesterday that she could use the Castle Doctrine to somehow justify killing him, I assumed this trial was going to end in the usual way: No consequences for the killer, followed by her suing to get her job back plus lost wages. Justice was actually served for once. I hope this becomes the norm.

I’m really reconsidering the unpleasant thoughts I sent the Judge yesterday when she included in the jury instructions basically the Stand Your Ground Law.

In 1979 we didn’t wear those cargo things that brush the top of your knee. I’ll bet she got a good look at those legs.

Franken basically admitted this is his longstanding M.O. when the state fair story came out — “goosing” a woman right before the picture is taken is his version of “say cheese.” He thinks he’s helping her loosen up and take a better picture. He’s displayed zero awareness of just how awful the practice is. I’m sure…

One of the highlights of the Kristen Gillebrand interview on NYT’s The Daily podcast was when she made the point that his successor is doing just fine and is a valuable and contributing member of the Senate.

Gillibrand hasn’t been a moderate in several years though. She was originally elected as one, but in 2018, she had the most progressive record in the Senate (yes, very slightly ahead of Sanders). In the last five years, when you rank senators by how progressive their records are, she’s only been outside the top ten…

Sometimes I’ve wondered if, for some of them, it’s less about Franken than it is a chance to take a shot at a moderate like Gillibrand.

Aww, and the Blame Gillibrand tour was going so well!

I don't think it's because they are men in a powerful position, I think it is because they are in a powerful position because they are men.

“their classmates will pester them for the four (or more) years it takes them to matriculate”

Devil’s advocate: Nobody knows the long-term effects of vaping yet because nobody has done long-term studies on it. There is anecdotal evidence that inhaling anything artificial into your lungs long-term causes serious health problems (in fact, that is one of the concerns about inhalable insulin, a delivery system…

I hate you for making me laugh at this.

What kinds of fashion photographers do they hire over at H&M? None of those kids are remotely sexy.

The crying “I have sinned” guy was Jimmy Swaggart, disgraced and defrocked in 1991, returned to televangelism in 2007. Jim Bakker was the one who was married to Tammy Faye, raped his secretary, then went to prison for fraud in 1988. He got divorced, remarried, and started his comeback in 2003.
