What do you have against pearly white Jesus? He’s the one who brings my kids Uggs and North Face fleeces for Christmas.

I’m 47 so this is right up my angsty teenage alley. What I really was into about Nirvana back in the day was not so much how disaffected or disillusioned they were. We all were. Everyone was. For me it was about how good a lyricist Cobain was, even couched in his rage. Pearl Jam was just that-a jam band, and…

Comedian John Mulaney has a nice bit about how Donald Trump is what a hobo imagines a rich person’s life to be like

But how do you feel about Gillian Jacobs?

I don’t buy it that he lied to Pence or Trump. Much more likely he was acting under orders the whole time.

Lol he’s actually holding it properly. His tiny little gloved left hand is so small you can barely see it near the top of the grip. I think it’s a triangular shaped head with a weak and willowy shaft that has deformed quite a bit so it all looks backwards.

Well let’s play chess

Maybe I’m being Pollyana-ish but I’m less worried about the military. My own experience a million years ago was that most service members were not ultra violent or even ultra patriotic. Most of us chose the service to lift ourselves out of whatever circumstances we had back home. CBP on the other hand is strongly…

Maybe not public opinion per se, but certainly they considered the public interest and I think were correct to do so. After all this ruling was only on whether the earlier stay should be lifted while the courts examine the legality of the EO itself. So all they did was decline to set aside that stay

My response is that would never happen but not for the reasons you state. A North Dakota resident wouldn’t move to California just to be pandered to in a national election. They’re not pandered to by either party now because of how few electoral votes they can deliver. But more to the point, a N Dakota resident lives…

Please explain how a single voter in N Dakota would gain greater representation by casting his vote on the coast in a popular vote system. It would be, by definition, the adding of all votes into a single bloc regardless of where they are cast.

See the cat? See the cradle?

I’m reading this right now. It’s excellent and terrifying. It’s taking me awhile because I keep taking Vonnegut breaks just so I can sleep at night.

There seems to be an inability to admit that we may have been wrong about something, and the studies that follow this phenomenon are pretty well documented. Seems to be some sort of defense mechanism that is no more sophisticated than children yelling “Nuh uh” “Yeah huh” at each other. People will dig their feet in…

Did we go out? Combat boots, hand cut cammo shorts and RATM tee? Do you remember?

You’re right. Should have gone with Bill’s line “Don’t eat that, lady. That’s Mencken.”

“So many young men get their likes and dislikes from Mencken.”- Hemingway, as Jake Barnes in The Sun Also Rises

A friend told me a couple of summers ago that UA was dead. He said his teenager wouldn’t wear it anymore, that he had complained it was the uniform for little kids and grandfathers. Doesn’t seem like there’s any coming back from that

Local news in Indianapolis went to a bowling alley and asked old white people how they felt about it. Would you care to guess?

You and me both Bella. Between the slightly hysterical narcissists, hate spewing idealogues, and ungodly amount of pokes and shares by our elderly parents it felt like the world’s worst subway ride every single time. Now we log in about twice a year to see if anyone died
