Right? Of all the ridiculous stats, the possession numbers being as mundane as they were was definitely the most surprising to me. And that’s in spite of the fact that one of the stats is that City had more shots by a literal order of magnitude! But I was still more surprised to see that Tottenham had something like…

Fair. It’s an interesting thought experiment: is there anyone I wouldn’t want allowed into this country simply based on things they’d said?

Denying anyone entry to your country—let alone legislators from your closest ally—because you don’t like things they’ve said is something that’s done by dictators and banana republics and fascist thugs. It’s horseshit. It’s yet another astounding reminder of how far both the leadership of both countries has fallen…

First of all, VAR didn’t steal shit, if anything stole anything, the handball rule did. We’re two rounds into the season and holy shit am I already bored of people whining about VAR. I’ve overall been pretty impressed with its implementation. It still has a long way to go, and there’s a ton that needs to be improved…

I’m continually amazed that the president of the United States of America attacks anti-fascists as regularly as he does, and gets away with it. Don’t get me wrong, I understand why he does it: because if he loses the support of the racists and the fascists he’ll have no base left. And because he has absolutely no…

I have a soft spot for fast food breakfast sandwiches. I don’t eat them with any regularity because I like my waistline where it is, thanks, but if I’m in a hurry or on the road or have a morning errand that takes me past a TimHos or whatever, yeah I’ll pick one up once in a while.

And remember all the times we railed against Biden for putting his hands on womens’ shoulders or waists in pictures?

Yep. It was bad enough when I lived in a major city, but a couple of years ago I moved out to a rural area. Overall I love it out here, but the medical situation is fucking dire. There are so few specialists that you have to schedule months in advance, as you say. There are therapists, but no psychologists within an…

How the fuck does anyone buy this bullshit? So few private insurances cover mental health stuff as it is.

Also almost always said by people who are actively working to undermine the legal standing of unions and any other labor organization that makes negotiation even remotely feasible. 

I usually find nouns being used as verbs to be mildly irritating, but “buffoon” as a verb is not only delightful, I cannot think of a better verb to describe almost everything Johnson does.

Yeah, I totally get that, and don’t get me wrong, I hope I’m worrying needlessly. But with regard to your first point, the movement of the pound over the last couple of months makes me wonder if everyone is really as prepared as we think we are. And with regard to your second point, I know this is almost entirely…

I know you should never judge a book by its cover, but based on every picture I’ve ever seen of Ken Cuccinelli, I can’t shake the feeling that he’s the type of person who is an absolute dick to waiters and cashiers, and sucks up to a cringe-inducing degree to anyone who he perceives as being above him socially or…

I’ve been really confused at why, as the prospect of a really acrimonious no-deal Brexit grows larger and larger, people seem less and less concerned about its global effect. I don’t think we’re nearly as insulated from that as some seem to think we are. If Trump Lite crashes the UK out of the EU—particularly if he…

Every day I read the news and think, “we can’t possibly devolve any further into self-parody.”

Glad I looked before I left the same comment you guys are making.

Set up a few stands at popular tourist destinations around the country, and you’re set for life.

All you have to know about red flags is that the NRA supports them.

Yeah that picture is too much for me. The baby makes me want to weep, and Trump’s thumbs-up... just... what the actual fuck, man. You soulless fucking monster. I hope your death is slow, painful, and lonely.

Of course. It’s a small distinction, but the smiling wasn’t so much what got to me as the thumbs-ups. Sure, of course, you get a chance to stand next to a famous person for whatever reason, you smile for a photo. And yeah, I’m particularly harsh on Trump because his smile and body language always just makes him look…
