I hope we don’t get too lost in nominating someone from a non-ivy league school, as much as I would like someone who did not graduate from Yale or Harvard. Amy Coney Barrett technically checks that box as a Notre Dame alum, and she grew up with all the privilege that a white person enjoys with a Shell Oil lawyer for a

It’s a motel. While other long-term residents might know the score, it only takes one temporary resident who might honestly have been concerned. Demonizing that person is no better than harshly judging a young mother who is between a rock and a hard place.

Careful. We used to say shit like that, here.

I’m kinda amused about the underlying suggestion in most of these recent pro-Tessica articles that turrible meanies are to blame for this woman’s error going viral.

I’m with you, I figure there will be enough time to deprive myself of Earthly pleasures once I’m dead. Unfortunately science suggests that enjoying those things may expedite the process. 

So, at the risk of “libsplaining” this is... incredibly consistent with what Biden’s been saying since he’s been campaigning. Further, average debt isn’t quite as useful as median debt — since the people with significant ($200K+) debt throws the average out of whack.

Fake outrage about civility is back in style for Trump taint remoras GOP clowns, who could’ve expected it? Next they’ll be fake concerned about deficits or treating trans kids like any other kids.

I feel reasonably sure your scalp is considered part of your skin.

All the good conservative lawyers abandoned Trump long ago, so this is what he’s left with. At least when he was in office, people could act like being the president’s lawyer was something to boast about. Now, there’s no reason to get involved here unless your resume is so modest that this would represent something

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie

Hammers are how most body panel adjustments happen. It shouldn’t come to that -- their tolerances should be better to start with -- but once you have a panel that’s subtly the wrong shape a hammer is the only way to fix it.

Uzi grew up about 10 blocks from my house. I was taking a Covid walk last summer and came across his car just parked on a random street in Philly (My son, an Uzi fan, ID’ed it. I just thought it was a crazy looking car).

And it’s not even RGB fire!

Thank god someone finally asked Ja Rule’s opinion.

It’s the same fucking thing Sen. Sanders proposed, and now it’s not good enough because it’s being floated by Pres. Biden.
