My mother and my older sister taught me in my teens that the issue of abortion is a women’s health issue and as a man I really don’t have any say in it. I have taken this to heart ever since. It makes me upset that some smug asshat guy whom no one in my family knows thinks he can step in and tell the women in my…

It’s not a choice, just like slavery wasn’t a choice. 

This is what happens when you let a mentally ill man be president and have him pick a nominee based only because said nominee believes the president should be above the law. Trump didn’t look at anything about this man except his belief that the president should never be impeached no matter what.

Karen, I just have to say that you are completely full of shit. I know this because I actually am a catastrophe adjuster for a major carrier. IN FACT, I am headed to North Carolina next week for two months. I don’t know what bullshit company you work for (I’m assuming the fictional variety), but no carrier requires a…

But word still spreads around town that looting was tolerated. That emboldens the folks who would loot, now and in the future. It also gets around to people who wonder why the cops did nothing while people were looting stores.

Especially Family Dollar, which is not even a “real” dollar store. There are two in my town only a few miles apart. Both are located within walking distance of housing projects. They are as predatory as Rent a Center and buy here pay here car places. 

lol I’ve played this Fallout 4 mod. As long as the Carolinas have enough Radaway they should be alright

Last decade, when McArdle was an up and coming pundit (along with Matt Yglasias and Ezra Klein) there was a fantastic blog called Fire Megan McArdle, which documented her odd pretzel twists to defend the rich and scold the poor. I which we still had it.

As Walmart has slaughtered small-town American businesses, Dollar General has come in to finish the job. They are the living embodyment of end-game capitalist vultures.

The gothic script is a nice touch. I guess the “sieg heil” is implied, just like when she says “corporate globalists,” she really means “jews.”

If people are looting cases of water and cereal in an emergency, then its morally wrong to stop them.

Wow! Look at the brave law enforcement tracking down people going after sub-par line production throwaways rather than making sure people aren’t electrocuted by downed power lines, aren’t drowning in their homes or lacking potable water.

During the summer of 02, my good friend from college was getting married. He lived in northwest Iowa, whereas I was living in northwest Ohio. It’s about a 17 hour drive from A to B.

I have 5 kids. 2 are bio 3 are kids who were abandoned or whose adoptive ‘parents’ didn’t want them anymore. I’ll have 6 soon. Burmese refugee on the way  

Nobody said he had to be fitted into it in a single piece.

Semi-serious question: Does the Coast Guard have any ships with deck guns big enough for a person?

Goddamit. The Coast Guard used to be the one branch of the military that actually had decent folks in it, discharge this yahoo immediately. Preferably out of a deck gun.

Billy Beane has an ownership stake in the A’s and he’s probably only about 50% asshole. I’m just applying the standard “everyone rich is 25% asshole” formula, plus he makes his living finding creative ways to fuck over young baseball players. So by my calculation, everyone involved in sports ownership or management…

I submit Paul Allen as the least asshole-ish NFL owner.

That car strictly had appeal to people who have Tweety Bird tattoos and a meth habit.
