At least Herring had the good sense to say, “Um, hey, guys, I did this really really stupid thing when I was younger and I’m really sorry I did it and for the love of god please don’t hate me forever and ever because I will for reals hate myself for it the rest of my life.” And to say it before whatever random…

It gives me a sad every day to see the troll brigade running merrily through the comments while I have apparently been eternally relegated to the grays. 

That, or she promised to pinch his knee when Mother isn’t looking, just to see if she could get him to run from the room. 

Exactly. They were flatly laughing at him because it didn’t seem to cross his mind that their elections were a plain rebuke to him and his policies. 

Once upon a time. For a depressingly large number of people, paid time off has disappeared entirely. 

But PTO also greatly reduces healthy people calling out at the last minute so that they can use sick time instead of having to use vacation time if they actually put in their request ahead of time. That’s something actually confirmed by multiple studies, not just that I noticed how much healthier some of my co-workers…

As far as I know, tax-wise it would be treated no differently than any other income. 

No, it’s really not better.

Except yeah, she DID intentionally lie about it. From what she had said before this all blew up in her face, this was the dreaded ‘family lore’ that didn’t even really pinpoint who in the family was the Native American ancestor. And based on that, she’s writing “American Indian” on forms for race? That’s a pretty…

Part of the problem might end up being that she’s repeatedly said that she never claimed Native American ancestry to get any benefit from it, she just checked a box on a form, she wasn’t really claiming to be a Native American don’t ya know, blah blah blah.

Yes, any Democratic running will be hammered ad nauseum on whatever random crap it is that the Republicans can come up with. That doesn’t mean that it’s necessary to make it so damn easy for them, does it?

This would be a really good time for someone on her staff to be writing the “after exploring the options available to me, I feel that I can be of more service by remaining in the Senate where I can fight for the economic reforms that are so sorely needed by our country” speech. 

Johnny Cash, however, went with the tried-and-true classic single bird, not the double-bird combo.

Is the goal total war? Because that’s obviously not intelligent.

I am eternally frustrated with the willful blindness of the “I never got a thing from the government” crowd.

To be blunt, there’s also the fact that old people have serious problems with delicate, easy-to-tear skin. And Trump’s old.

That’s simple enough. Advertising on web sites is very different from traditional print or television advertising. A single entity buying space on a specific site is almost unheard of now. Instead, almost all of it is done through ad networks. The website adds a small snippet of code which allows the ad network to…

Wrong! There’s also the Lindsey that desperately wants to be Attorney General.

They’ve proven remarkably elastic in their condemnation of men sleeping around with women (as long as the men in question are straight white Republicans, anyway), but a closeted homosexual is another matter entirely. 

And if it were just a matter of “Hey, we’re gonna be pissing $5B down the drain,” then it might be a different story, but it’s not. It’s not just a matter of the fact that his beloved wall won’t even begin to accomplish a single damned thing that he claims it will, or that it would be just the beginning of an even…
