Yeah, it would be a tricky argument to make, but Trump having told The Proud Boys to Stand Back and Stand By certainly helps frame them as his private army.

Same. My wife and I had a conversation yesterday that we should, under no circumstances, leave the house today. I just had a feeling.

You can impeach and convict him even after he is out of office, because that will make him ineligible to hold office in the future.

Unfortunately, the Democratic House Majority was down to 1, given the other Representatives appointed to posts in the Biden administration. There was absolutely no margin left to appoint a member of the House to the seat.

Wrex.

In 2016 it was possible to believe they were fairly similar on foreign policy, too.

There’s also Marvel comics current Ms. Marvel, Kamala Khan, whose name is pronounced that way. She’s been an extremely popular character (and is essentially the main character in the Avengers game that just dropped).

If you like their cod, be sure and try their walleye when it is seasonally available (which is approximately during Lent) — it is far and away the best fish sandwich I’ve had since moving from a coastal state.

On the one hand, I’m right there with you, because I think people post way too many things that they should let go.

The classic phrasing is that “in the North, they don’t care how high you get, as long as you don’t get too close, and in the South they don’t care how close you get as long as you don’t get too high.”

In this case, DoorDash selling the pizzas to other people was bad for the restaurant because they didn’t want their pizzas sold for delivery. So DoorDash was essentially buying the pizzas and reselling them without permission, and doing a lousy enough job of that that the pizza restaurant was getting complaints and…

Just heard him interviewed about a month/six weeks ago on Bomani Jones podcast (he’s been on a press tour because there’s a documentary that was released about him). Great interview and really interesting dude. One reason that this makes a lot of sense is that he’s been heavily involved in manufacturing in China,…

This is the show we have added for family TV time. I hadn’t watched it since it moved from SyFy, and my youngest (who just moved in with us upon starting college) hadn’t seen it all. We’re currently in season two, and it’s been fun watching it blow his mind. Looking forward to the seasons I haven’t seen yet.

But don’t file it until July if you have to pay.

It’s like a reverse Grapes-of-Wrath dust bowl.

You’re not wrong. “Passing” is a gigantic, weird, fraught subject for transfolk, and every one of us approaches it differently. For me, what I want is to pass as a woman generally (because the entire point of transition was that I was a woman, damnit, so I want to be treated like a woman) but not have to hide my…

My wife has moved through all the British procedurals, and then onto the French and Belgian ones, into the actual Scandinavian ones, briefly detoured through Turkey, and is currently watching Korean procedurals.

Damn, Joan. I’m so sorry.

I’m old, so this reminds me of my experience with Barney. I watched enough Barney, that I have strong opinions about which ones were “the good casts”. (“The good cast,” in case you are wondering, was the original one, because the show started as a local PBS show, which just used sort of the random kids in the town,…
