Shaming the upcoming generations is one of the only consolations of becoming old and culturally irrelevant. Don’t take that from us.

First I’ve heard the act. This track pleasantly reminiscent of Lee “Scratch” Perry and related dub acts.

I’m amazed at the amount of thought & work you put into this, but I must say, it paid off.

Cory Booker. Dammit, Hilary, pick Cory Booker.

I don’t know that I’ll follow you to the New Yorker but I know I’ll miss your writing here. Keep writing. Keep reporting. Keep up the good work. All the best.

Link, please, I want to freak the shit out of some people I know.

I respect either of these choices, as long as it involves voting, and not for Trump. Myself, I’m going to check the most recent regional polls leading up Election Day.

I would all wand’ring stars to you award

A blanket response to everyone who wants to argue with the headline: How about, rather, “Hard work itself is insufficient without luck as well.” Well, ok, that doesn’t zing as a headline.

In a sense, isn’t this all of us? Ask yourself.

You’re making that up. You’ve got to be making that up.

Sweet jesus that’s rich. +1
