I dunno, I don’t personally hate his wife, but going for some foreign-born, heavily accented model screams “MRA who can’t stand ‘independent’ American women” to me.

Here’s the thing—this issue is almost always presented as a choice between infringing on the civil liberties and human rights of Muslims/refugees/Middle Easterners in the interest of safety, and doing nothing (and risking further attacks) for the sake of not being bigoted. But that’s a false choice, with false…

using the paris bombings as an example, most of the perpetrators had eu passports. they weren’t immigrants or refugees. there is nothing to stop guys like that from getting on a plane and going almost anywhere. they don’t need visas.

And Michigan leads the series 58-47-6, so...?

Cool stats. Lame burn.

Maybe I am just totally heartless (possible) but I never have any compulsion to change my tune about someone just because they died. If you don’t want people to talk poorly of you when you shuffle off this mortal coil don’t be an asshole in life.

Jesus Christ. Get out of Portland, immediately. Of course you can't pay child support; you live in an insanely expensive town doing a job that hey, I would LOVE to do except I have bills and kids and zero support from their father in 19 years and I also live in Portland, so I have to have two jobs that I wouldn't mind…

If I read correctly, he also doesn’t live near in…

I’m hoping this comment section turns into all of our favorite tweets:

Oh no, it’s totally legal, that’s why the can was covered in tape, the referees replaced the ball and there is an article on Deadspin.

It’s like we’re living in a Kurt Vonnegut novel.

That would be profoundly stupid. He can’t control whether he gets an injury or not.

You’re missing a third-grader’s comprehension of the First Amendment.

Tell me what I’m missing here

There already is something in the law that says churches — actual churches, not businesses run by church members — only have to perform marriage ceremonies for couples that conform to their doctrine. No church that is against same sex marriages is being forced to perform marriages for same sex couples anywhere in the…

I’ll tell you what you’re missing: Religious organizations do not get to make the laws.

You cannot be serious.

Why would a black person want to eat in a restaurant that didn’t want to serve him?
