Megyn Kelly showed up as she continues the long, slow march towards the end of her contract. Her coworker Sean Hannity took a break from shining Donald Trump’s shoes to ask him a few questions following the debate.

That ticket should have been reversed. Bill Weld is a tad conservative fiscally, but he was a good governor who made rational decisions, and genuinely seemed to care about governance. And coming from Cambridge, MA, Our Fair City, he certainly would have known what Aleppo was.....

I’m so jealous! I love Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me. I did not realize it was taped on Thursday nights. Yow!

The largest-circulation paper in the U.S., the rather milquetoast, never-offend-anyone paper that has never met an infographic it didn’t like, has finally found a voice.

“In the 34-year history of USA TODAY, the Editorial Board has never taken sides in the presidential race. Instead, we’ve expressed opinions about the

Tonight I had the joy of going to see a live taping of NPR’s “Wait, Wait Don’t Tell Me”, it was amazing. What was more amazing, was that I got to attend the VIP Cast party (HOLY SHIT I MET PETER SAGAL AND BILL CURTIS AND FAITH AND ALONZO) ahemm. Somehow, during this event, I managed to get corned by probably the only

Go USA Today!

I think the show asking (or telling) them to remove the BLM messaging from the window may have been the last straw for them. It’s not the show’s set piece that they built and can do whatever they want with. I can see how that would push them over the edge.

Yes to both.

Newt’s also very self unaware. He regularly attacks people for infidelities (like Bill Clinton in the 1990s), when he cheated on at least two wives-- both of whom were sick. Him talking about a woman gaining weight fits that pattern. Newt is apparently unaware that he looks like porky pig

No one’s as irrationally confident in their looks as fat white dudes. Like, they’re always the loudest critics of other people’s looks, particularly women’s.

The day that I can read the news without having to come across the name Donald Trump will be one of the happiest days of my life.

Agreed. If people actually READ the statement the bookstore put out, it’s totally fucking reasonable and something I’d think most people here would agree with. Jez cherry-picked some hot takes without context and put a shitty mocking tang on the whole thing (and most of the comments reflect that attitude). Like, the

I read the quotes from the bookstore owner’s in the voice of Fred Armisen’s character and it made this article 400% more enjoyable.

I admittedly do not like this show, so I have not seen many episodes at all. So is Fred Armisen doing anything transphobic while wearing a wig and a dress, or is that it? Is cross-dressing in a comedy sketch offensive now? I am genuinely asking, because obviously this trope has been used forever.

I don’t care about the rest of the country, I want my city back. My once lovely working class neighborhood is now over-run with tourists, they’re demolishing all of the old Portland homes that gave the city it’s character and putting up hideous “modern” boxes that look like they’ve been sided with wooden pallets and

Portland is still fine, and if you don’t think it is, you’re completely out of touch with how things are in the rest of the country.
