Good god, I really hope this glove wearing thing is not a trend. Just when the reduction in wasteful single use plastics is starting to gain acceptance, people gotta fucking come up with this shit?

No, actually it’s not deductible at all. It was eliminated altogether by Dumpf. It’s true that itemizing is much less used because the standard is so high now, but that just applies to the few things are still deductible. Unreimbursed employment costs are just one of the many deductions- like moving costs- that were…

It’s not deductible for your federal taxes.

Actually... it’s not deductible. Maybe on your state taxes, but not federal. Thanks Dumpf!

I’ve spent many a night on a blanket watching movies in Bryant Park, Riverside Park, and Hudson River Park. At least those were free. I can’t imagine paying $60 just to watch Grease.

The guy is a gay Trump supporter. That’s about as dissonant as it gets.

I make the first three regularly without a stand mixer. Especially the pizza dough that works best without too much kneading. 

If he lives in Dallas and has been banned by AA, he’s going to have much fewer flying options.

Even though NYC is a solidly blue city, there are pockets of red. And those red families send their kids to prep schools. The schools may try to change, but they will not have any impact on debutante culture. Racism is just one of many “isms” that infect these schools, and is probably secondary to classicism. 

Brain injury/insanity/lack of mens rea defenses almost never work. It’s the lawyer’s last line of defense- no lawyer wants to use it because they know that they lose 99% of the time. It’s his job to put it out there but his client is going to prison for the rest of his life. 99% guarantee.

There are a lot of unknowns about the virus. Including how the people are getting it. What evidence is there that outdoor transmission is low? It’s a function of proximity to other people whether it’s indoors or outdoors. And from what I’ve seen of the beaches near me, whether its on a boardwalk or the actual beach,…

It’s especially important in baseball, where the percentage of black players is exceptionally low.

Right. I’m sure the thousands of people on the boardwalks are all six feet apart.

You know this because ...? Are you an infectious disease specialist? Have you read the research about how the virus is buoyant and will generally rise to the top of water, and can be included in sea spray?

Yes, I can’t wait to see the videos of people burning their remaining bottles of Aunt Jemima in protest.

No one is saying that we shouldn’t start doing things again. The mandatory stay at home orders have been lifted. But people need to stop acting like its fucking back to normal. Not wearing masks is probably the stupidest thing a person can do right now, both in terms of possibly contracting Covid and for spreading it.…

$13.95 a day? I think I paid the same price for a rental last year (Priceline baby!).

We already know what happens when there is no traffic enforcement. Just look at what happened when the Coronavirus made people think cops weren’t pulling people over. If it were to become official policy, all the jackasses are going to go nuts. And if I were in my 20s and not a 40 yr old with a toddler in the…

Ding ding. I think we have a winner. They rely on mall foot traffic because they are not a destination restaurant. No one ever says, let’s go to Ruby Tuesdays. It’s usually, is there anything other than the food court? Oh yeah, Ruby Tuesdays.

The funny thing is that this is not even that sloppy. The statement from Bull implicating the Torches was not beat out of him. Footprint evidence somewhat corroborated the statement. The statement itself was corroborated by a third party. And they were cleared quickly after Bull retracted his statement. This is how…
