The city at least fired him.

I don’t see anyone seconding Under the Shadow, and they should, because it is SO GOOD. I liked it better than the Babadook. It’s similar with the complex mother-child relationship, but takes place in 1980s war-torn Tehran. So it’s like, are we running for bombs or ghosts OR BOTH?!

You can rent it on Amazon video. That’s the best I’ve been able to find.

I’m wondering what kind of backyard mini-pig breeder she went to. The whole mini-animal thing can be really shady, plus I’ve never heard of the “rare chipmunk mini-pig”, plus it has a parasite, plus she got it at only six weeks old? Is that okay for pigs? For cats and dogs it’s supposed to be eight weeks.  

Rich, were you woke at 18? Were you woke in 2001? As I recall, up until a few years ago you and Tracie were throwing around the r-word in print.

He’s saying the Civil War was unnecessary and unconstitutional? They SECEDED, the US Constitution shouldn’t have mattered to them!

This is going to be SO EFFECTIVE. Are they aware that CVE is already so divisive in Muslim communities that many organizations refuse to apply for or accept the grant money and speak out agains the organizations who do? Now that they made it explicit that this grant is only for the future little jihadis in the…

That’s cool, but what the actual fuck is happening with Ben Carson? I know she’s terrible, but it makes sense in that she’s interested in education. Ben Carson’s whole housing and urban policy expertise is resting on growing up in public housing. I think Trump got mixed up and thought that the “Urban” in HUD was…

Also see the Angela Davis quote: “I am no longer accepting the things I cannot change. I am changing the things I cannot accept.”

Democratic Farm and Labor Party caucus. DFL are Minnesota Democrats.

I know this is beside the point, but what accent is that???

Why is public spitting ever necessary?? If a bug flies in your mouth or you accidentally take a huge swallow of rancid milk or something, yeah, but otherwise, I swallow my spit. I honestly do not get the “I need to spit” impulse.

I taught kindergarten as a busty foreigner in Japan and I was guarding my tits and crotch from munchkins ALL DAY. My 60-year-old mom visited from America as a special guest, and a kid said hello by poking her in the crotch. This was in addition to the general harassment I got from adults just by living as a foreign…

Hey, I just learned that Andrea Tantaros and Kimberly Guilfoyle are different people! Fox News--bringing us interchangeable conservative ladies with big hair of all colors! But mostly blond.

I still never wear my wedding ring to interviews for this reason. Also, I fidget with it.

When I was in Istanbul, we stayed in an Airbnb that basically was a hotel, but in a great location for a fraction of the price. The hosts had a building that had several units in it that were just like private hotel rooms, and had a maid who came in every other day and everything. People are totally using it as a…

It’s the majority opinion. The Supreme Court decided it 5 to 4. The losing justices wrote other opinions. You’re saying you have more legal expertise than the highest court of law in the country right now.

The individual mandate has already been challenged for that exact reason and was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2012. You can still choose not to get health insurance. You’ll just have to pay a fine to the IRS, or as the Supreme Court decided, a “tax.” From Chief Justice Roberts’ opinion:

Not so shy at the townhall, as seen below and at 2:20 in The Daily Show clip. I just love this girl. It seems like her greatest joy is humiliating her father.

I think it’s hard for current twenty-something feminists to understand how different Bridget Jones was at the time. Feminism has evolved past this, as it rightfully should, but back then we didn’t have female protagonists who were funny, flawed, and not physically perfect. She was drunk, slutty, and a little…
