“Why wouldst thyself be mad? After all, ‘tis but a scratch.”

Legit question, because I’m not nearly as knowledgeable about British politics as you are: how in the hell has Labour not dumped Corbyn yet? What does he have on everyone that he’s using to keep himself in power even as the whole party crashes and burns around him?

I had read descriptions of bodies ravaged by nuclear radiation, but until this miniseries I had never seen any realistic depictions of them. Holy hell if they aren’t some of the most terrifying images I’ve ever seen....

“Sure. The main one I use, across multiple platforms, is L-I-C-K-M-Y-C-R-U-S-T-Y-C-H-O-D-E.”

This show called out R. Kelly (in customarily brilliant fashion) way before most media outlets did; who’re they gonna tab this time?

How in Zeus’ name have you not been hired yet to write a daily “And Now For Something Completely Different” column for British issues on this site??? (I mean, there are days when the only reason I click on this column is to see what you’ve written.)

I work at the National Domestic Violence Hotline, and I always have videos of Lil’ Bub up on one of my two monitors whenever I’m on a call, in order to keep myself calm and centered. I need him to be immortal.

Grumpy Cat shows up in Hell, but before the Devil can start his fire and brimstone routine, Grumpy Cat looks him dead in the eye and says, “Shut up, you’re my bitch now.”

This is the only reason I’m not keen on impeachment -- and I’ve wondered lately if Pelosi et al. have had the same thought. A halfway competent politician with downright frightening beliefs? (shudder)

At this point, the only male celebrity who will genuinely surprise (and disappoint) me if they turn out to be a creep will be Tom Hanks.

No, you’re right of course; I was just a 14 year-old who was growing up in the Midwest at the time and wasn’t exactly getting taught that. Thankfully I learned quickly.

Shit, I remember being so completely shocked by this incident when I heard about it as a kid. Now it just feels despairingly routine....

The backlash to Asuka pointlessly losing her title to Charlotte on the SmackDown before Wrestlemania basically proves this. Fans (and other performers, if Twitter is to be believed) genuinely like and respect Asuka, and knee-capping her like that pissed everybody off in the wrong kind of way.

Florida Grandma > Florida Man.

Do your thing during the primaries, fight like hell for whomever your candidate is, but ultimately, come November 2020, UNITY, people. Just think of the odds of Ginsburg lasting another four years in Trumpland. If that isn’t enough to get you to vote for whoever the fuck gets the Democratic nomination, then I don’t…

This was just one of those games where only one team could win. The end of regulation took the wind out of me, but the end of overtime slid a goddamn dagger between my ribs. Even at this moment, though, I was, somewhere in my head, cognizant of the fact that this was the best tournament run for Purdue in decades and…

Shiiiiiiiit, you’re right. For some reason I had it in my head that the ‘92 game was the first of the Final Four, but it was the Regional final. My bad, good catch.

I honestly thought my Boilers had it before the end of regulation; even though I knew that wasn’t the sort of thing that was supposed to happen, for a fleeting moment I truly allowed myself to believe. This is why I have trust issues.

Incredible game, though — honestly one of the best games I’ve ever seen, right up…

This is me grasping for silver linings, but now I hope this at least makes 2020 about issues, not Trump’s actions in 2016. If Trump has to run on his record instead of playing the victim (especially with an economic downturn likely on the horizon), he could be in trouble with people who aren’t already in his base.
