To be fair, Ewan McGregor actually acted. If you had asked me if he looked like Obi-Wan right after The Phantom Menace released, “I would have said no, absolutely not, but who cares?”

Fun fact: Greed wasn’t one of the seven deadly sins until people dumbed it down. Rather, the sin was *avarice.* “But Wit,” you say. “Thesaurus.com says that those two are synonyms.” that is, again, because people are dumb. Avarice, as Chaucer says, is to “turn every coin in your coffer into a little golden god.”…

Jonestown, 1978: Kool-Aid’s Marketing Campaign an Unrivalled Success

Can’t wait to see how they turn her into a helpless damsel in distress 30 minutes before the end of the movie 🙄

I dunno, man... The *next* rapist President? Even if he were sworn in on his 35th birthday, that would mean almost 18 years without a rapist President. Seems unlikely.

Secretary of Education, I’d say. He clearly cares about the subject; Chasten is a teacher, so he’d be hearing about the results & issues firsthand; he’s a complete nerd for learning.

I feel like I’ll have the fewest stress aneurysms if they run Nikki Haley.

Okay, so I completely understand why you might feel that way, but I was a fly on the wall when that bullshit went down, & you really shouldn’t blame The Mouse for that deal falling through. 

I’m getting the sense, although it’s way too early to tell, that neither of them are going to be nearly so bad for the country as, for instance, Clarence Thomas, or as the Republicans hoped they would be.

Hahaha, “The Obama Corollary” — that’s great. We could write a book on this. The World According To The Right or something like that. Completely satirical, but with an utterly deadpan delivery, as though we were describing something as scientifically proven as Newtonian physics.

I definitely think they would still show up to vote. But I do think that there’s part of Trump’s syphilitic, pea-sized dinosaur brain that wants his base to still remember & be talking about him as the best president ever in 10 or 20 years, not as “the best president ever, well... except for—”

SCOTUS is quite possibly the best place to look to remind yourself that people don’t acquire good viewpoints at the same rate or in the same order. You can be cheering for one of them one day & then tearing your hair out because of what they did on the next.

Not *all* racism. The FOX & Friends demographic reserved the right to accuse black people of being racist against whites.

The only type of miscarriage that the GOP doesn't want to criminalize.

I’ve seen a lot of Republicans supporting the openly gay, progressive mayor in the last few weeks.

*sigh*

2016: Fans ‒ “Don’t whitewash Dr. Strange!”
Marvel ‒ *crickets*

Honestly at this point I’m just glad that we haven’t heard anything from Rick Perry in 2 years. Because he’s the one we’ve put in charge of the nukes.

That’s a perfect example of why it’s so stupid. When a tag-line is so broadly moralistic, it can be used to mean almost anything.

Trump weighs in at 239 because all the hot air cancels out 50 lbs.
