John Wayne was a guy who conveniently used his status as a single parent to get out of serving in WWII to further his acting career. While many other far more established stars, including Clark Gable and James Stewart, willing enlisted despite the fact they could have probably gotten our if it.

Sure, but it’s a reminder that all of the symbols of rugged male authenticity in American conservative politics — see also “Sheriff” Clarke’s stupid fucking hat and flair, or grifter Zinke’s upside-down fly rig — are bullshit.

crazy to think that someday we will all crawl into that huge pink mouth and huddle behind the shattered and tilted peaks of his teeth along the rolling wet hills of his McDonald’s-impacted gum line as he leaps, naked, out into space on a trajectory set for Earth 2, a quivering savior hurtling spread eagle through the…

This was my concern, too, but it’s about becoming rejection-proof by *accepting* rejections as a part of life, not rejecting rejections.

The real lulz is that tweet was almost certainly written by one of his over-eager staffers. I can’t imagine McCain paying that close attention to his follower count. I have my issues with him, but he’s never been one to care about that kind of minutiae.

Wow.

I live in a bunker in the woods. I am secretly preparing a luxury apartment, with comfy chairs, big screen TV, full kitchen, bathroom, hot tub and high speed internet, in the unlikely event that civil order strikes and I have to live in an environment of prosperity and peace.

I agree, but the nice thing about this is that it removes ambiguity. Sometimes you can drive home if you have a couple of drinks over a couple of hours of socializing. Sometimes the drinks are stronger than you thought.

I mean, wasn’t Sessions gonna get pushed out over the summer? Call me when they do it. In the meantime it’s all just the churn of the White House news machine, and we know that members of the administration lie to the press *for fun* on the regular.

I do not necessarily disagree with Twitter’s policy that someone who is as newsworthy as Donald Trump essentially is unbannable, but I do wonder if that would have been their policy has Saddam Hussein or Adolf Hitler been prolific twitter posters.

Companies need to learn to ride out their logos. Yeah, there will be some amount of time where a logo looks dated, but eventually you come out the other side and it’s just iconic. Coke, ford, chevy, lots of colleges, etc, etc. All that happens when you redo your logo every 10 years is that it is perpetually in the…

Funny, I only ever see people on the “MAGA” side of the aisle smashing things like coffee makers or boycotting places like starbucks. People on the other side of that aisle just don’t buy the product. At most they might incorporate it into a lawful and peaceful protest before they get hit by Jazz as he comes screaming…

The mechanism is your arm. The filter in the French press is a “moving part” in the same sense that, like, a hammer is a “moving part” when you lift it off a tabletop.

You forgot to explain why. Balls are very fragile. Ironically they are the most vulnerable place on the body, revealing the essential fragility of the masculine gender.

Other people who shot the videos appear to be under the impression that destroying the Keurigs will make liberals angry

that would be every unread email on the synced accounts, whether they were received before the email was setup on the phone or not

More like a kazoo.

Much as James Buchanan was America’s first gay President, but we await our first openly LGBT+ head of state. Not for what is says about the politician, but what it says about us. (Of course, we sorta thought 2008 marked the start of post-racial America. Hoo. Silly peeps.)

She isn’t the first trans person to serve in a state legislature. That was Garrison, decades ago.
