There are 2 lessons to be learned here, one for the racists and one for dog owners :

I find the conservatives’ “I didn’t get the likes and retweets I expected, therefore I’m shadow banned” outrage rather entertaining. Yesterday a conservative was getting called out for tweets he made after Trayvon Martin was murdered, couldn’t handle it, and switched his account to private. For those of you not…

“Our capital stock hasn’t been destroyed, our human capital stock is ready to get back to work, ” Hasset said with an easy smile.

The only thing that made the video more disturbing was the sound of Panic! At the Disco’s “High Hopes” playing in the background.

“Let the bears pay the bear tax, I pay the Homer tax.”

Reading this article I thought “I’m never going to Italy, I’d be the American chowing down on floor pasta while the locals mocked me in a language I don’t understand.”

Why not? The reason police still ride horses for crowd control is because they realized the same crowds that will trample a cop do not want to hurt a horse, and will leave a mounted officer unharmed.

For the record, ordinary posters can ungrey individual posts but not the user. Only G/O staff can do that, and giving trolls those powers seems to have declined since Splinter died.

I read the grey posts and if the 15 minute edit window has closed, will ungrey the quality ones. Years ago (when the greying started in response to graphic images posted in the comments) the trolls figured out to post something agreeable, get it ungreyed, then edit it to what they really want to say.

Updated: Tuesday, May 26 at 5:55 p.m. ET: The Star-Tribune is reporting that the four officers involved in George Floyd’s arrest have been fired. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey announced the terminations Tuesday afternoon.

You know you fucked up when Emmitt Till is trending on twitter and it’s solely because you’re the new Carolyn Bryant.

My insomnia had me watching this evolve on twitter last night. There are equal reactions of “My real concern is that poor dog” and “That man could have been shot and you’re more worried about the dog?”

Because (in the first season) it was a show about a con artist named John Meehan, it was called Dirty John. As Eric Bana was quietly stealing from Connie Briton, one of her daughters dubbed him “Dirty John”. 

Yup. Here’s another Republican tweeting the quiet part, and giving an excellent example of “being ratioed”.

It also requires the state to allow any felon to register if they are not given an answer within 21 days.

I finally saw Hustlers yesterday, it lived up to all the hype.

True, but do you really think the FCC will accept that and wave the massive fine incurred?

Fat Donny Two Scoops would prefer to have the RNC convention at one of his properties anyway. And there’s no one in his orbit with the guts to say “You’re already the nominee, you don’t even need to hold a convention,” because that’s how you become a coffee fetcher Cheetolini barely knew before you were forced to…

I wonder if Antonio Sabato Junior’s agent still answers his calls with “I warned you” instead of “hello”.

(Staten Island is largely Republican, unlike the rest of the city)
