Ehhh, Kern County and thereabouts have money: that’s a fuckton of oil and agriculture. But I don’t know how keen Big Ag and Big Oil would be on the uncertainty and instability of anything as risky as a secession—I suspect the answer is probably, “Not at all,” but I also don’t know what kind of power they could wield…

Yeah, that just looks like a cut-and-paste job?  Maybe a green screen?

Perhaps we should move away from “men” and “women” competitions, and instead look at something like weight classes.

Well, yes, this is all known. The real question—as opposed to the transphobic faux-concern for girls—is about children who have declared but not undergone hormone therapy. I mean, can a 16-year old receive that? It doesn’t sound like a good idea, mucking about in a developing body, but I cannot claim to know the…

Mind.  Blown.

Vivienne Westwood was born a gaping asshole, has lived as a gaping asshole, and will die a gaping asshole. I small part of me dies every time I am forced to remember that she is one hell of designer.

The main computer?? Has this person ever been inside a bank?

I’m sorry, how did your brain not get stuck on the idea that bank heists involve swapping out legal tinder with counterfeit bills? Also, there are legitimately no standards whatsoever for filing a brief in the American judiciary system? Apart, I assume, from roughly following the preferred format?

And it’s such a weird lie because no one could possibly believe that she’d ever be accepted into an elite public Ivy like Michigan.  Plus Trumpists hate elitists, and hate educational achievement, so who exactly is she trying to impress here?

I think “parlors” morphed into “living rooms” after the Great War. Living rooms became the public room of the house, the more formal space to receive people—usually because they were not well enough acquainted with the family to have entrée to the more informal spaces. This informal, more intimate space became the…

My only question is how a handbag can cost $88k.

Welp, human beings who are not you tend to like pretty things around them—that’s one of the compelling reasons why we’ve been practicing art since forever.

She could mean Steak, but there are also all those Directional Michigans she could be alluding to as well...

Why the fuck would you even let Rudy G’s Flying Circus through the goddamn door?

Whaaaaat?!? WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME STACEY ABRAMS WROTE ROMANCE NOVELS OH MY GOD IS THERE NOTHING THIS WOMAN CANNOT DO?!?

Feature, not bug:  America is Number One, baby!

Man, when did it become so de rigueur to slam Christmas gifts? Reading through the responses here, it seems like my family is the only one left in the States who unabashedly love presents. We love shopping for presents, we love wrapping them in pretty paper with ribbons and bows; we love receiving presents, we love…

I’ve been calling “Civil War 2.0" for a few years now

Holy shit, this is scary.  I hope that whoever has custody takes drastic steps to protect themselves and the children, up to and including identity changes and moving to an undisclosed location.  Seriously.  Even if this unfortunate madwoman can’t hurt them directly, she’s plugged into a network of delusional people…

They legitimately seem like the worst mix of being boring, yet utterly convinced that they have so much to say.
