This reads almost exactly like the thank you letters my mom used to make me write to older relatives who gave me birthday/Christmas presents:

Does the fact that he actually posed as and impersonated her online make it any more prosecutable? That seems like a distinction between this case and other cases I’ve read about where the photos were shared but not in the form of impersonation. Especially since he used details of her private life in order to pretend…

There’s so much to unpack from the Pro-Liars new pro-lie strategy, which is basically: every pregnancy is truly planned and perfect; every woman is healthy enough to withstand pregnancy and childbirth; every fetus is healthy; US maternal death rates aren’t alarmingly high; woman = mother and no more than that,…

ugh, that was too real. This in particular, I think, is worth remembering:

A Virginia GOP candidate who campaigned with white supremacists is allegedly a “devotee of Bigfoot erotica,” according to running Democratic candidate Leslie Cockburn.

Honestly watching anyone run is pretty funny unless it’s someone full on sprinting with perfect form. I got stopped waiting for a 10k to pass by a while back and watching people try to pace themselves is just hilarious and so unnatural. I say all of this as someone who is a very slow runner who’s body and long legs wa…

Actors running is one of the things that I can’t not notice in films. I can’t not pause to shittalk when I see some actor flail along in an action scene like their limbs have never talked to each other before, and I always appreciate when an actor looks like they could genuinely put down a decent mile time.

I’m going to guess that it isn’t uniformly applied, with a bias on age, race and appearance, though not necessarily in that order. I’ve never eaten there because quite frankly most Plaza restaurants are way more expensive than they need to be for the quality of food.

Exactly. And his whole “oh you’re gonna be here all night” bullshit? Motherfucker, if she wants to stay until last call that is her goddamned right because she has cash in hand and you are open for business. 

The question is: Is the policy uniformly enforced for all patrons? If it’s only applied to...certain people...that’s a problem.

I’ve never heard of a policy like that for food — maybe to open a bar tab, but there’s the option of just paying for your drinks while at the bar. Has anyone else heard of such a thing? And why would getting a credit card be better than the person paying cash up front? If you were a scammer, you could always do a…

Looking over restaurant policy, they have a policy of asking for credit card or cash to secure a tab after 9pm. It is on the online menu and probably on the physical one as well. Given the amount of dine and dashing I’ve known about in that particular area of KC, this is not a surprising policy.

I miss the Obamas so much. Also, Jake Tapper remains trash and tweeted a trash take about how the Obamas shouldn’t be going to a concert because the Democratic party is in trouble. Luckily, the replies ripped into him.

I love that picture.  The Obama’s more so than almost any other public couple seemed to have a real and generally happy marriage. I loved that they seemed to show genuine affection for each other while acknowledging that marriage takes work and that they don’t always agree on everything.

Not for nothing, but this is probably my favourite Barack/Michelle photograph. It was taken during their final state dinner, and I would pay good money to know what Barack said approximately five seconds before this picture was taken, because he looks pleased as hell with himself for having said it, but Michelle…

Watching anything with the Obama’s or even Hillary Clinton makes me too sad for what we’ve lost. Fucking hell but I’m glad they are living their best lives. They deserve it.

I didn’t realize Trump had ever actually held one of his children.

How about restoring the unique sand dunes you destroyed for yet another golf course you miserable orange bloated bastard?!?!? https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jul/29/donald-trump-golf-environment-sssi-damaged-broken-promises

He does seem to have been vandalized. 

Awww, Baron’s just a cute baby there. Wonder which porn star Trump was sleeping with then.
