It’s just following the thought process that seems to be endemic among contemporary conservatives. “This thing is broken, but everybody knows it’s broken, so any attempt to fix it, or even dare to point out how broken it is, is silly.” It’s the same argument made against any attempts to fix healthcare, gun rights,…

I remember the day that my roommate was going to the 2005 anti-Iraq protests, signs in hand, ready to make a difference. On the way out the door, he saw Jon Stewart making a fart noise. Content, he threw his signs in the garbage and moved along.

If you can’t see the differences between Sandy Hook & Charleston you are both blind & ignorant of the world around you.

If The Daily Show had any effect on our actual political culture, it was probably to the benefit of conservatives. In its absence, many young liberals might have confronted the George W. Bush years and engaged in actual political projects, like the campus left of the 1960s.

I’m amazed — AMAZED — the author uses three names to identify himself.

“that I decided I’d rather be friends with Carlson instead.”

No sentient human being would ever say that. Unless they were a humongous douchebag.

does that say “drunk women”? ya know, just to clarify?

This bears repeating.

“We can neither confirm nor deny the existence or nonexistence of a criminal investigation until such a time as a person is charged with a crime,” said Hamburg Police Chief Gregory G. Wickett.

Considering Exponent’s findings here will now join their storied accomplishments of:

What we’re looking at, in the absence of red-handed guilt, is the NFL, its investigatory arm, and that arm’s hired experts railroading an investigation with shoddy, biased works of bad science, and then holding up their homework to Roger Goodell, who sticks a gold star on it and calls it “highly credible.”

Snyder’s contempt for Exponent actually makes a lot of sense. They are well known as being a junk science for hire firm. Their previous reports have stated that second hand smoke isn’t unhealthy and that there are no adverse effects of dumping toxic waste in the rainforest

I love this toaster oven. It’s a great help with dinner. Typically, I’ll roast something in the oven and then use my toaster oven to roast the vegetables.

This lawsuit is a slam dunk. If there’s any media outlet that refuses to host the opinions of white Christian men, it’s Fox.

Oh, the Places You’ll Go! is probably Dr. Seuss’s best book (well written, well paced, not overly sentimental, it’s great), and it’s ridiculous to hold some graduation cliche against the book itself. Stupid to give it to a graduate, of course. But for a kids book, it doesn’t get any better.

The only correct answer is 140 pound Pedro Martinez gripping fat Don Zimmer by the ears and dumbo-tossing him aside.

If your PS4 controller battery is requiring charging after every gaming session, you either have a problem with your battery or you are playing for REALLY extended play sessions. I often go days between charges, usually with 8-10 hours of play time notched before it even goes to the last bar on the indicator. Not that…

That’s what I find crazy-making about this. ESPN’s superelitepluggedinfootballguys got very prominently suckered by highly placed NFL sources twice (at least) in less than 12 months, on two of the three biggest player-discipline stories in that time frame. How can they be OK with this? I can understand, cynically, how…

Journalists are also supposed to be taught to consider a source’s reason for anonymity before promising it and, ideally, to only promise anonymity for a good reason, such as protecting them from physical danger.

Ideally you should ask a source “Why do you not want this attributed to you?” If the answer is, “Because it…
