Take a breather from the news. This sort of shit, and far worse, has happened as long as humans have had the capacity for cognition.

As with all sins, if you would just do what God wants, which is to always be pregnant or giving birth, then you wouldn’t have to suffer from the consequences, which in this case is menstruation.

This really shouldn’t be shocking.

but the rest of the increase would have to come through taxed economic growth or other federal programs—or both. In the latter case, he’ll have to sell two arguments—why defense spending needs to be increased, and why it should be at the expense of other federal spending.

Because predicting votes that precisely, and then layering in the electoral college dynamics to determine who wins in a very binary outcome (Trump or Clinton winning) is never going to be able to be truly perfected. That’s why it’s a model, not a freaking crystal ball. It looks like the pollsters were disastrously…

That photo was supposed to be a gif of Offerman not being able to keep a straight face.

Where do you think we are?

Yeah, all the old people laughed at the Beatles too.

Concerns over people creating an echo chamber on Twitter are overblown especially when compared to how terrible online harrassment is.

What are you talking about?

It makes a lot of sense. Priebus definitely has that “I only get put in charge because I make a presentable pawn” look going for him.

I wonder if, beneath the narrative, Fox News people really believe that Priebus will have the normal degree of control that a chief of staff has.

I had planned on a little DotA & Trine 2 action but after Tuesday I might just have to go out and binge watch Preppers.

Then again, hopefully they can find some of those same “guys” in some of the more diverse sets of people they have elected. I hope the Democrats are very intentionally about grooming new members like Kamala Harris…

On my first day in office I will direct the Department of the Treasury to create a full body mold of me which they can pour the gold at Fort Knox into! This will allow us to double the market value of the United States’ gold reserves instantly!

“This has been a gut-wrenching campaign, as everybody knows, and the nation is just beginning the long healing process,” he continued. “And I think the last thing we need right now is to have a trial about events that occurred six years ago or seven years ago, in which Mr. Trump—President-elect Trump—is a personal…

He took the Senate “nuclear” on a narrow basis as it related to federal judges except for the Supreme Court. He avoided doing so on regular bills and SCOTUS appointments.

That could solve the problem.

Believe it or not, I actually agree that Warren would be a poor GE candidate. I mean, a center-left coastal Democrat with 100% name recognition lost to Donald fucking Trump. Why on earth would we think the answer is to move further to the left and stay on the coast with a Democrat who has better name recognition…
