RE: SJP; my best guess is Nic Cage or Johnny Depp. 

I do not want to see a Melania biopic any time soon. I detest the woman and she is morally bankrupt but all something like this would do is provoke the right wing assholes who would feel so sorry for her even though they can’t shed a tear for refugee children being essentially tortured by our government while someone

I very rarely visit strip clubs as a gay man who only goes on a wild night with queer lady friends when it sounds like a good idea. Here in Portland they tend to be cash-only businesses and many generally will only give you change in $2 bills. I think that should be standard for the industry. A dollar is worth a lot

I just read he clarified that it’s not really a suicide pact but a “life pact,” whatever that means. I don’t care. Alice Cooper is a national treasure and his wife seems lovely. Relationship goals right there. 

I hope he is charged because in his own words he has done a tremendous disservice. The right wing will reflexively dismiss hate crimes against gay people and  black men while pointing the finger at Jussie Smollett. 

No. He hasn’t been tried and acquitted. Until the SOL runs he can be prosecuted. Thank God for that because under that premise Donald Trump couldn’t be charged with many crimes as soon as he leaves the White House. 

I remember religiously watching this every week with my sister when I was in 8th grade and she was in 10th. She had a brave best friend who was out in Central Louisiana and lived with his grandmother because his parents kicked him out, a couple of bad girls who were nice to me and gave me cigarettes and malt liquor,

I’ve always found him to be pompous and completely un-dynamic. I’m pretty sick of the even-keeled trusted white man of the news business, and I am a white man. I guess he feels it’s his job to be even-keeled this is a hard miss on his part. “Concentration Camp” is a definable term and the shoe fits. The nazi holocaust

Chuck Todd has always been an asshat. I don’t know how such mediocre white men like him somehow get so much deference and institutional legitimacy when they’re obviously feckless you-know-whats incapable of calling a spade a spade because taking a stand for the right thing is way less pressing than continuing to go

In 2009 I went on a gay cruise with my ex and while I am glad for the experience I don’t ever need or want to ever go on a cruise again. Somewhere between Cabo and Mazatlan there was a cyclone - as in a Pacific hurricane, in April, with an actual name I can’t remember. They tried to go around the storm but for like a

You sure as shit can’t roast garlic powder. If you don’t like fresh garlic maybe you just don’t like garlic because the powder is a piss-poor substitute. 

I am happy to see that Parkland kid get some karmic retribution. You have to be a really fucked-up person to use a mass shooting at your school as an opportunity to make a name for yourself as an advocate against gun control. In other good news today Alex Jones is probably going to prison for child porn. This

I think I reinvented myself in my early 30s because my personal and professional life went somewhere completely different than how they were going or previously would have thought they would but I remember the freedom I felt going to camp because it was a fresh slate with kids who don’t already have an impression of

Goddamn right that NYC is a complex city in need of a very focused mayor. I don’t know why the fuck he is doing this but there are a lot of white men in the mix I’d rather not be. I live in Portland and our mayor (in a weak mayor system) has much said that he hates the job but he and his family decided he should run

Scaramucci was a total let-down on Celebrity Big Brother because he literally quit in the 3rd of 4th episode. Omarosa on the other hand was fun as hell to watch and she did pretty well. I hope his wife is more dynamic than he is because I really just find him obnoxious even though he’s actually pretty intelligent. 

The voters in Kentucky keep reelecting him because he pisses off the people they hate. That’s the truth about a lot of Trump voters; they live memorable lives and want everyone else to be miserable, too. 

Some quick research tells me that Korn is basically a Christian “nu-metal” band now which I find sort of hilarious. They were always a really bad/dumb band but it’s probably a good move because that shit comes with a built-in market and an easy way to stay relevant. Mike Huckabee is good company because they’re both a

I think it’s fair if your driver can choose a quiet ride just like you can. If you really want to make small talk (and really?) they can skip over drivers who don’t. 

I don’t know how the criminal law works in South Africa but it shouldn’t be necessary for Arnold to “press charges” when the whole thing is on video and there are a million other eye witnesses. Lock that stupid little twerp up. He needs to learn a lesson because that could fuck up the lumbar spine of a person half

Kendall’s reply is funny. I’m sure this was a planned click-bait controversy because these are the Kardashians, but I especially feel bad for Rob and his daughter. I’m sure his daughter is the least favorite of the grandchildren.
