Jon and Dany are definitely going to bang but I saw the opposite of chemistry there. Like they seemed bored to be there.

I’ll read any website that headlines a Mitch Hedberg joke on the front page.

It also made him sound 80 years old and quaint, as if he genuinely thought this was the only way to reach new people, but he is ‘a 49 year old technology designer’ so presumably someon can nudge him towards Tinder?

Right?! Romantic would be 1 bottle. 2000 is law of mass action. Just ask out every person you meet then, someone will say yes.

Quick note, when babies are born needing extra assistance they go to the NICU.

I wish Mrs. The Mooch and her baby well. And by “well”, I mean her lawyers take the Mooch to the cleaners and never look back. Leave him with nothing but his foul mouth and vile reputation.

Jesus Christ. My ex missed the birth of our daughter because he was stuck in an airport in Ireland, en route from Afghanistan. That is a perfectly honorable and respectful reason to miss the birth of your child. Being absent due to service to the objectively worse US president, in terms of competency and pretty much…

What Katmandu said. All women viscerally recognize the exhaustion, and it’s much more pervasive if you’re a woman of color.

Well, I think they were trying to cover up the fact that they had very few shoes in his size. Like, almost none. Like, 2 pair, one of which was so cheaply made (though not inexpensive, of course) that I could hardly believe they were willing to sell them So, they were just giving me the runaround. So I said to…

There are quuuuite a few them, all kinds of uralic, turkic, caucasian and other peoples all over. It is a huge country and it too was populated well before europeans moved in.

It’s that exhausting to be a woman. Period. It’s at least twice as exhausting for minority women.

A friend of mine has talked about being fascinated by how things like tenses (or, in the cases of some First Nations languages, the lack of them) can completely change a person’s relationship to the entire concept of time and its passage, because tense can change meaning as well! Language in general though, as you…

I grew up in NYC, as did my father, and my accent sounds nothing like my dad’s. He has a distinct Bronx accent, and I do not know anyone under the age of 50 or 60 who has an accent like that.

I have spent a good deal of time working in remote (mostly northern) First Nations communities, and I learned to appreciate the “cultural storage capacity” that language provides. One example was when someone explained to me that the word people said as I was leaving (which I took to be them saying ‘goodbye’ to me),…

My reservation is working hard to create more Menominee language teachers. It’s a struggle to save the language and culture.

Currently there are an estimated 7,000 known living languages in the world, yet 95% of the population uses 300 of them.

You should have been a fly on the wall when I (a woman) was in a guitar shop to buy a guitar. Yes, for myself! Lordamercy. Sales to willing customers aren’t hard, people!

Maxine is 78. She has zero fucks left to give and she is not putting up with this shit.

What kind of bastard blames his kids for his own, perfectly executed, PR disaster... and then chastises the public for yelling at him, which was actually yelling at his kids?

Two of his children are 19 and 23. So they’re adults. I mean, by the time our Commander in Chief was that age, he’d already filed several deferments from the draft...like “adults.”
