Laura’s angle is certainly obtuse, in the dumb triangle of Ingraham, Carlson and Hannity.

The latest NRK correspondents letter from the US is about how old fashioned the US is (sorry), still having archives on paper, paying by check and so on. One of the things the correspondent specifically pointed out, is how sexist media/TV seems to be:

I cannot star this enough (literally; as I can’t give it more than one star)! I don’t use Facebook much anymore, “posts you haven’t seen” is the dumbest thing ever. At least Twitter (Which has its own problems; “Twitter, for Nazis” as opposed to “Gab, Twitter for Nazis”) still (for how long?) lets me see a…

Not here in Norway; there is no legal minimum wage here. The members of parliament here currently take in about 950.000NOK (before the various additions for living away from home or committee leadership and so on (also, cheating with travel expenses seems to be quite popular, and adds an unknown amount to that, but…

Republicans want freedom like Mad Max, where you are free to fight for your life every day. The worst bit (for me; it’s quite Norwegian to be self absorbed), is that our politicians use American sound bites a few years later, and people buy it over here too! Madness! Trickle down (or as George Herbert Walker Bush…

We do mostly have gendered toilets at work, but the one closest to my office is unisex, never heard any complaints (Oh, except the students have put up a drawing of a woman on the right stall; i think that has to do with guys pissing. Fucking. Everywhere. and not conservative imagined safety, though). There’s a fairly…

Yes, I didn’t say the context made it better.

David Fucking Frum fucking said it (I know this is taken a bit out of context, his argument around this quote seems to essentially be that conservatives should get their shit together a little bit, but more importantly that liberals should give them a little, or else...);

We know that Trump attempts to speak in mob-code; he said to Comey, “I hope you can drop the investigation”, and when caught later, construed it as his bright eyed, rosy cheeked hope for a better future, not the direct instruction everybody knows it was. Our only hope is that he believes in the mob-mythological…

Like how fucking stupid is Nikki Fucking Haley? Finland ranks in the very top in the world in healthcare satisfaction and patient outcomes, but more specifically their pre- and neonatal system is famous for being the very best in the world. (Just google “Finland baby box” and read while you weep, Nikki Haley.) I wish…

Like an ‘80ies teen slasher film; “Ugh, why’d you invite Steve?!? He’s gross!” “Uhm, his dad owns the cabin we’re going to stay at”.

Vodka + orange juice = Screwdriver.

This is THE comment on vaccines.

Kush looks like a 2017 deepfake of himself.

Farmers:

Uncanny Valley, California, standing in for Africa, I see.

When Trump complains that so many of his stupid decisions are overturned, I’m reminded of a quote from Justified;

And you would assume wrong; I just did a search at ssb.no, and there are no people in Norway named ‘Kirstjen’. Her last name is Danish in origin, so I searched at dst.dk as well, but no Danish people spell their name like that either. I suddenly realized exactly how fervently I want this vile woman to have absolutely…

Yeah, and Rick Scott would know about stealing (Judges, nudgenudge, winkwink)! I don’t get how someone could vote for this crazy-eyed sociopath anyway. Unless it’s to get him out of Florida; if he’s elected to the senate, he’ll spend most of his time in Washington, after all.
