That picture is creepy as shit. His teeth are in the uncanny valley. He looks like a humunculus from FMA or something. Like that image is what you see creeping out of the shadows just before he unhinges his jaw and swallows you whole.

So it’s ok for sports players to demand total happiness in all areas of their lives while we sit here and suffer?

I guess? But that’s kind of beside the point. Whether or not this blog post is up its own ass has no bearing on whether or not Newsroom was up its own ass. And it definitely, absolutely was.

Meh. I mean I’m not disagreeing with your main point that sometimes it feels like this site just wants to hate everything for the sake of clicks, but they’re not wrong here. Sure, it was better than 90% of what’s on TV, but that’s like saying that getting my arm chopped off with a sharp, clean knife is far better than…

It would be a far, far greater surprise if anything else happened.

This is just part of a long-standing ongoing concerted effort by the right to corrupt language to the point where any language related to the left is turned into a pejorative phrase. Eventually, make it widespread enough, and people who would otherwise be open to progressive ideas, or at least neutral to them, react…

This was exactly my reaction.

Yeah I’m in the same boat. I usually upgrade every year or two—in fact I’m slightly ashamed to say I can’t remember the last phone I kept for more than two years.

Your child and your ability to make more.

I’ve long thought that the only way Trump actually loses his base is if he’s caught on camera in a private somewhere with a bunch of other elitist-types really shit-talking poor people. Like, just laughing about how stupid and gullible they are, and how great it is he’s in this position to help himself and his buddies…

This is wonderful.

I go back and forth depending on my mood. Some days I find myself wondering if we haven’t already shot past that tipping point. Other days I think we’ll all be surprised at how quickly we recover when there are adults in charge again.

God. Reading these things gives me such a weird mix of emotions. I want to laugh and cry and choke someone to death, all at the same time.

Not every exchange has to have an absolute right and wrong. Pam Anderson v. Meghan McCain, for instance, is not a good v. evil fight. They can both be stupid and wrong and misguided, and they both very much are. I guess you can say Anderson “won” this exchange, but... Christ.

Sweet. So first Trump and his morons make an idiotic change purely to rile up the dumbest among their base in a move that will not only cost the country more money and fuck the environment, but also cost the automakers (and therefore by extension us, their customers) shitloads of money.

I agree with you, of course. But—and I don’t mean this as a defense of this moron, more as an explanation—look around you right now. In this country and around the western world there’s a terrifying resurgence of mainstream racism. Christ, just peruse the responses to this post, or just within this thread. The number…

Reliable, safe, AWD, non-truck/SUV for $20-25k... I’m honestly in shock that every single suggestion wasn’t some form of Subaru. 

He specifically says he doesn’t really want a truck or SUV, but specifically says he would like 4WD/AWD, and none of you spring for a Subie?

Honestly, if you’re going to whine so much about me mugging you with this knife, why don’t you just buy some bullets for my gun and this whole process will just go much smoother. God, you fucking liberals.

I really think it’s just reflex at this point. There are so many potential catastrophes at any given time, I don’t think he does this shit thinking specifically “ah, this will distract from [specific scandal].” I think this is just his standard setting. It serves the dual purpose of keeping him in the news and letting…
