Dogs and cats should definitely be immortal.  

The UNC Charlotte Shooting Didn’t Even Register a Blip in D.C.

I was a huge critic of last episode but gotta say, I mostly enjoyed this one. There were obvious issues due to the shortened season length, but for the most part it was fun to watch and had more heart-wrenching moments than last week’s episode did. Euron’s attack on Dany’s fleet was fucking great - the flying arrows…

Once they passed the books it became quite clear that things were going to head in this direction. I made my peace with that last season and as a result have been able to enjoy this season knowing what it is and not under any false pretenses that it is of the same quality story as hopefully some day the books will be.…

I’ve been a fan since I was a kid when they moved here in 1997. They gave our entire class free tickets to a game when they were playing in Greensboro before the (then) Raliegh Entertainment and Sports Arena was even built. 2006 and the Stanley Cup will always be special, and I still think about the 2002 and 2009 runs…

Oh crap: he offered the T&P to the firefighters and not the building! That’s not going to work at all!!

Problem with Sansa is that she goes from smart to thick as the plot demands. Season 7 Sansa was dumb as hell at times.

Jason, I’ve been a developer on more than one of these types of monolithic ambitious-but-aimless projects that eventually lurches over the finish line (late). You’ve gone through months (or years) of very real suffering to get it to that point, and when it arrives, you’re embarrassed at what’s been put out. It’s…

I was witness to this meltdown in real time last night. And IT. WAS. GLORIOUS.

I dare say many conservatives would take issue with the idea that they’re all white nationalists.

The problem we encounter today is the mistakes the kids make stay with them, by virtue of digital media, so it makes a difficult situation even more difficult, because it doesn’t get let go. It is amplified.

This is the only thing Meghan McCain has ever done that made me like her. “you were at my wedding Denise...” Oh God, it’s so perfect!

Mmm ok Megan. 

They will, but I wonder if they’ll understand why they’re feeling it, and who is really at fault.

I have said before—and I maintain—that I don’t believe most people are stupid, but I do believe an awful lot of them are ignorant, and of that number, many are willfully so.

In the case of political divides, I think there’s…

There is almost nothing that would excite and energize the Republican base more than an impeachment fight. There is also virtually no chance that such an impeachment would end in removal when the Democrats don’t even have a majority in the Senate, let alone the 67 votes they would need to convict—particularly when a…

your fucking gender politics has fucked the rest of us over.

One if the great things about the Founding Fathers is that they were deeply cynical about the masses and built plenty of safeguards to keep the masses from destroying everything.. Unfortunately, the Founding Fathere, it turns out, weren’t cynical enough.

The Founders did not see the Federalist Society coming. They did not anticipate having one of two major parties devoted entirely to plutocratic plunder, and being able to do so because of the financial and institutional support of a mega-wealthy elite. They whiffed on that one.
