Look, cults manage to do good work sometimes. They pick up broken people and put them back together, people no one else wants to bother with. That doesn’t make them not a cult. It doesn’t make the shit they spew true or not dangerous.

So far, though, our best guess is that if you flip a coin your chances are probably just as good on a low-fat diet as a low-carb one.

Android has been doing it for years as well. I’ve been sending SMS through Google Hangouts for a few years now.

Excuse my language, but Jilani sounds like a punk ass bitch.

At the most elemental level, this was wrong; McNabb played poorly over the first two weeks of 2003, but turned it around sufficiently to lead the Eagles to 12 wins and the NFC Championship game.

I mean, yeah wearing a second coat of human skin would probably make you warmer, but homosapiens aren’t exactly the fuzziest creatures.

Ok. I’m done. There is enough plausible deniability to come to the conclusion Ezekiel Elliot is an awful person who never used physical violence on her. I am all for supporting allegations of abuse, but in this one case I am done.

They are choosing to play in Tampa over Arlington because.... reasons?

From the Astros’ side, the narrative looks pretty clear-cut here. With the team reeling from a storm that’s ravaged their home city—killing at least eight people, displacing thousands more and making professional baseball in town untenable for the time being—they reached out to their opponent and asked to swap this

Corporations don’t want to piss off most US (and global) consumers. Republicans don’t want to piss of their base. Apparently two-thirds of Republican voters are racist enough that they were fine with how the president has handled this... The response (or lack thereof) has been more damning of the Republican party

And that has exactly shit-all to do with whether a private company gets to say, “Take your fucking business elsewhere you Nazi shitheads.” The Internet is not a public space. It is not an American space. And there is a vast difference between, “I am not allowed to curtail your life and liberty for saying this” and

Hate to be that guy, but he wasn’t convicted of anything so he’s innocent as well. Don’t forget, innocent until proven guilty.

Uhh, not sure if you’re familiar with the concept of justice here, but a person never needs to prove innocence.

What I don’t get is why we’re comfortable with a private organization taking on a criminal justice role at all. If we worked at Wal-Mart and came in one morning and they said, “Sorry, we heard you got in a fight last night at a bar, you’re laid off for three months,” we’d likely be incensed. We have an organization

You’re not wrong dude. But it’s hilarious to think that a Congress who wants to do away with VAWA would step in to make a difference in one industry regarding violence against women.

>> But the six game suspension doesn’t address why the NFL was able to throw the book at Ezekiel Elliott

Congress? What the fuck are you talking about? Here’s who can get involved. The police force and a DA. Fucking Congress. Do you just spout whatever mindless drivel comes into your head? And don’t cite that baseball fiasco as a reason to get Congress involved. That was total bullshit all the way around. Why

After Miller’s show concluded, Sarah Sanders read a letter from a 10-year-old boy who wrote to offer to mow the White House Lawn.

I look forward to reading your tips!
