You have to forgive them, the challenge of selling sports merchandise is unprecedented

A small landlord is a person who rents out their basement apartment in their house. A person who owns a building is just a landlord-landlord.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

It's Thursday and I'm at $20/150 (but really $200) goal for the week. Please, please, please, please share if you can't help. I've tried everything I can to find work or get mutual aid and nothing is working. I have NO safety net. Venmo is MirandaBrave if you'd like to prevent the fee.

My bull case for the Ballroom is we turn it into some museum about our too close brush with authoritarianism. A warning to future generations Bear case: We drift through another clueless Dem administration and then it becomes the next guy's throne room

Reading the 10 paragraph reply to an email I sent to my senator when I was drunk and angry

very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

Being chased by two bald men (who you mistook for a smashing pair of bristols), a bobby and a vicar on a tandem, a nun who you accidentally revealed to be wearing a corset with thong and stockings, some NHS nurses and a fat man... all while a saxophone plays a merry solo.

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds

You guys ever drink 3 beers and listen to this?

Looked at a calendar and I gotta say I don’t agree with Valentine’s Day being on a Saturday. Saturdays are for single people. You shouldn’t be having a romantic dinner on a Saturday you should be at a dive bar with your friend Matt
