It would surprise me not at all to learn that it’s a clip-on tie that’s been taped in place under his collar.

Maybe he doesn’t know about them. It’s not like his company makes them or anything.

Is the problem that the extremely flammable acetate material of the tie is so thin and slippery that it slips right out of a tie bar like a wet fish?

I can’t remember who said it (I always want to credit this to Terry Pratchett), but one of my favorite quotes on the subject of creativity is something like: “The ideas of the world are in a giant pot, everyone is constantly adding to it and taking things out. Two of the greatest crimes in writing are claiming you…

I am routinely annoyed that the conversation about livestock is always framed as “bleeding heart vegan hippies want us to pamper the cows” instead of “every medical professional agrees we are creating our own worst diseases by injecting our food with these drugs.”

LADY ORIENTED? Are they trying to indicate that women see movies? That they might wish to see different subjects handled in different ways? But then what movies will the poor abandoned men watch?

There’s a CPC just a few blocks from my house and I have no idea what to do about it. Their hours say they’re open one day a week but I’ve never actually seen them be open. They don’t seem to advertise anywhere and I’ve never seen anyone go in or out. I think PP and a couple actual real women’s clinic have cut into…

Brazil and Australia didn’t need any additional power-hungry racists. Should have put them on an ark and let them float in the middle of the Pacific, forbidden from touching land again. More poetic.

Because there’s a much better way that is more cost effective, helps a larger number of families, and has more long term benefits for society. And most people know it.

Sorry, I just finished my period and my brain hasn’t finished migrating back upwards from my uterus yet.

I’m intrigued that he’s invented a glue that disintegrates when it gets peed on. Is this glue immune to menstrual flow and all other vaginal secretions, or does he think the vagina is dry and powdery, and menstruation only becomes fluid when you pee, like Kool-Aid?

He invented a glue stick that disintegrates when wet.

I asked what the expected lifespan is for a West Elm couch like the Peggy. Both store employees told me that between one and three years was normal for a couch with light use.

Those sound terrible, what else can we glue shut to prevent those?

SPEAKING OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE NO IDEA HOW BIOLOGY WORKS

Starred, because my boyfriend didn’t really get me into gaming until I played Demon’s Souls. All this “Animal Crossing,” “Sims,” “genteel colorful spaces” games would have put me right off.

Oprah is building her own Sinister Six or Legion of Doom. All they need are more interesting outfits.

I could more easily see it now, but the type of spy Black Widow has been still doesn’t sit well. Leaving aside that Marvel much prefers inventing countries than casting potential overseas markets as villains. I don’t see them going in the Rimidalv Schmutin direction. And I still think political spy thrillers make a…

Whenever she does too much, “She’s just the president’s wife.”

This is what happens when your only two categories are “violent Islamic extremist terrorist” and “perfectly swell white guy”
