Awww, wook at the widdle wibertarian! Who’s a good propagandist?! Who’s a good propagandist?! That’s right! You are! Yes you are. Yes yes yes

Thanks. I didn’t really have time to explore the city, but in a moment of idle curiosity I tried to figure it out on the internet a couple years ago and didn’t have much luck.

I assumed it was a stubborn Texan thing, like Houston not having zoning laws. I’m not sure I’ve ever been in a city where I got such a strong sense of hostility to urban planning. It was honestly weird.

When I saw the headline I wondered how clueless you’d have to be to think this wouldn’t be a problem. But when I read that the design was shot down by the university (and how fucking out of control do people have to be at this point that the university has an approval process for tshirts) and they still made it, I…

I think I spent less than an hour driving around Austin before concluding that I did not care how many cool things people listed about the place, I would never live somewhere where people obviously hate traffic engineers. And that was in the mid 90s! I assume it’s much worse now.

This was totally worth scrolling back to the top to figure out what you’re talking about. It’s not every day I get to feel like a middle school boy. This should be a good warm up for Captain America Civil War.

“Guest” is my hero.

Re: yearbook photos, I figure if Margot Robbie was nice enough to everyone she went to high school with that nobody’s offering up dated proof to contradict her story I’ll give her a pass on the lie. I think the odds that the old story was mistaken in describing her as 23 are exceptionally slim, but it’s also pretty…

My parents wouldn’t let us watch The Day After, but no one warned them about Penny and the iron. Still traumatized.

He only sees her on Good Times reruns.

Actually, I was specifically referring to people above the Medicaid threshold. Things haven’t changed for those of us who got denied the benefit of Medicaid expansion, still no insurance but at least we don’t have to pay a penalty for not having it. A person making 20k a year, not so lucky.

The ACA is objectively horrible for people in the lowest income quadrant but above the poverty line (who don’t have the need to spend 10k a year on medical care). It’s honestly kind of heartbreaking. I don’t know the details of this lawsuit, and am perfectly willing to assume it’s more Republican bullshit, but I do…

Sorry, I’ve been doing more important things. Like encouraging people to imagine Sheldon Adelson with a tail dildo in his ass.

I’m sorry! I am selfish and wrong and did not want to suffer alone.

Just to be clear,

I’m sorry. I’m having too much fun watching you develop flop sweat over not being able to “win” your internet argument.

OH NOOO, you still don’t believe I graduated from law school with honors. How unpredictable at this point! Ok, moron, let’s talk about this for a second:

Cheers!

One of the most dispiriting things I have ever witnessed was as a volunteer on a political campaign. The experienced, highly compensated campaign manager leaving anonymous comments on the local rabble rouser’s blog. (Do I need to explain this was a white man? It was a white man.) The inverse relationship between the…

Thank you, friend, for joining me in the “so far removed from birthing concerns” circle.
