Uh... welcome to Chicago, Khalil Mack?
Not American, but maybe Colm Toibin?
Serena is the best goddamn athlete in the world, straight up.
Mattis: “Come on now, you aren’t a whore. An idiot, maybe. A whorediot.”
And they promote such horrendous habits like Italian immigrants tearing down flags. Horrible....
Stevie Nicks is a true witch. (I mean this as a compliment, as calling her a goddess in this context just didn’t seem appropriate....)
Rwanda seems like a source of universal regret among the world leaders during that time. Fast forward nearly a quarter of a century, and... world leaders are still making the same mistakes, only it’s doubtful they’ll ever express regret later on.
I work for B&N part-time, and pretty much every employee saw this coming the day they surreptitiously laid of 1,800 full-time employees in order to pay for yet another CEO’s extravagant severance package make up for a poor holiday season. The corporate model now is to literally work employees to the point of no return…
One one hand, it’s certainly a step up from sacrificing yourself on the horse races track to draw attention to your cause before the King of England. On the other, I suppose it is a bit depressing that this is one of the primary mediums in which this battle has to be fought now.
“Murphy Brown” was one of the few adult TV shows my mom would let me watch when I was around 7 years old, and as I’ve rewatched a few episodes in adulthood I completely understand why.

SOLIDARITY, my brothers and sisters!
Massachusetts passed the Negating Archaic Statutes Targeting Young Women Act, aka the NASTY Women Act, a bill that will repeal a super old state law banning abortion. Gov. Charlie Baker is expected to sign the bill.
To Iranian President Rouhani: DO YOU KNOW HOW TO FIX MY BROKEN CAPS LOCK? SERIOUSLY, I CAN’T FIGURE THIS OUT AND IT’S BOTHERING ME. YOU SEEM LIKE A SMART GUY; PLEASE HELP.
That’s awesome! If only the rest of the state could soak up some of Austin’s attitude....
So while I’m definitely not the most intimidating-looking guy around, I have worked at shelters for abused women and abused children/teens, and I’m trained in Krav Maga to a fair degree, so I figured I’d volunteer as a clinic walker in my town. But I live in Austin and none of the Planned Parenthood’s currently have…
I’m currently reading Tolstoy’s “War and Peace” and have reached the point where Napoleon has begun his invasion of Russia, and the people of Smolensk burn their city and its wares while retreating in an effort to deny the French any spoils.
Given the obvious connected nature of the universe, I can only assume that…
Welp, I have a new idea for the perpetually in development remake of “The Crow.” Hollywood, get at me.
If ever there was cause to resurrect COTD, it is this.
