I was always stymied by the people who would deride a candidate for being “an intellectual elite” or whatever. I WANT the president to be smarter and more educated than I am! Bring on the brains and experience!!

Yeah, I don’t get this either. Maybe if the psychic were promising something that was provably untrue (like if she promised riches and then presented the client with counterfeit money), but a LOT of people believe in devils and demons, and (though it seems very unlikely) she might actually have thought the daughter…

Since Trump became president, I often see “Ivanka Trump” shoes, dresses, etc., at markdown outlets at teeny-tiny fractions of their original retail prices. Sometimes they’re even marked down from the outlet price and are tagged at, like, $10 on the “seriously, nobody wants this shit, please just take it away from…

“Hey, my job is just to make sure the trains run on time!”

I highly recommend the hilarious podcast “My Dad Wrote a Porno,” in which the dad in question writes - frequently - about cervixes doing things no cervix could do. For instance, did you know that a penis can penetrate the cervix completely, whereupon the cervix-haver can contract the cervix deliberately, to provide…

I never put gravy on anything without thinking of Murphy yelling, “I know what healthy is!!!”

Red Hooded Sweatshirt as Tsar Nicholas II.

I’m reading that book right now! It really is great.

When Johnny complains that he can’t kneel to propose because he’ll ruin his suit, and she insists, and then we see the waitstaff looking on in the kitchen and as he kneels - sheepishly, hesitantly - one of them says, “What is he doing? He’ll ruin his suit!”

And then: “Ti amo.” ... “Ti amo.”

I grew up in a faith tradition that once you’re saved, you’re saved by grace, not good works (meaning as long as you’ve been baptized and you haven’t rejected Christ, you’re going to heaven no matter what). Most of my fellow churchgoers still led good, generous lives, because it was the right thing to do. But some of…

I grew up evangelical and I’m also unsurprised by the fact that this guy is a youth minister. I’ve known some lovely people who were ministers of all types, but the youth minister position seems to attract a lot of older guys who still want to hang around with teens so they can feel cool (or who want to creep on the…

My mom, too.

Laughing at the idea that anyone would think a sit-down interview was a good idea after what happened with Prince Andrew’s. People like this never think they’ve done anything wrong, though, so they feel compelled to argue their (ridiculous and revolting) cases.

If so, Trump’s forgotten that in space, nobody can hear you pew-pew.

Ugh Biden is so condescending. Referring to young women as “bright” is the same kind of dismissive as referring to black people as “well-spoken.” It suggests that the speaker is surprised to find that person so intelligent/competent. I mean, think about it. You rarely hear a man refer to a younger man as “bright.”…

I would really like a candidate who doesn’t turn everything into a dick-measuring contest, please. What is with these kinds of guys who seem to take any criticism as a challenge to their masculinity?? It’s “I’ll put my manhood against his any day” all over again.

At least the White Witch hands out Turkish Delight.

I agree. Even if she was a sex worker, that’s her business and nothing to be ashamed of; it’s her body to do with as she likes. We can rightfully lay into her over her support of her cruel, dangerous husband (including repeating his “birther” conspiracy statements on TV - she hasn’t just stood by his side and smiled,…

I have actually wondered whether her decorators are deliberately doing her dirty because they hate her or her husband or both.
