"Space Shuttle Columbia Completes Mostly Successful Mission"

Local idiot discovers that workers get paid.

Day 54: A fantastic day! A wonderful lunch, more putting the house together, and a ballgame! Also a lovely long walk.

LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO

the Democratic Party going anti-tax is the logical endpoint of the death of social trust, especially when couched in the reasoning that taxes are bad because all they do is fund the DoD

Imagine saying this about literally any other medical intervention. "Oh, you needed chemotherapy? Well that's fake and the wrong way to survive cancer." Yeah, it's just that fuckin' stupid. (Incidentally you also get this attitude toward bariatric surgery and the like.)

The statistician in me is weeping bitter tears because some dolts don't understand that, yes, there are measures of central tendency as well as measures of spread.

Counterpoint: Go fuck yourself.

NOT HELPING, LITTLE GUY.

Gee I wonder why the defenders of confederate statues are silent about this erasure of history.

1. Billionaires can't pay for everything this country needs to provide even under confiscatory tax policies. We all have to chip in; that's literally what a commonwealth is. 2. Billionaires should still be taxed out of existence anyway because they are threats to democracy because of their power.

I guarantee you that if the Irish could take over England the horrors would be legion.

I fervently wish to be left out of these freaks' psychosexual bullshit.

Hobbyless behavior here. And this is an insult to Bob Uecker's legacy.

Day 51, 52, 53: I was so busy the last couple of days I didn't have time for updates! Still unpacking, got new bookshelves, went to a ballgame (Ohtani Shohei is AMAZING to watch), had some great food, and got the little dog clipped. What a time to be alive.

It's hard to win a vindictive prosecution motion but these guys were sending memos back and forth like "fuck this guy, let's fuck with him for fun, we are terrible people" because they're the absolute worst lawyers on the planet.

What in the fuck is this even supposed to mean? Why not repeal the requirement for teachers to report child abuse because that "doesn't resolve the underlying problem of an unsupportive family."

I don't get why so many people cannot grasp that anecdotes are not data. Your individual experience may differ from the aggregate. This is not a difficult thing to understand.

Yankees, Cubs, Astros. The Unholy Trinity.

I am not a fan of auto racing but I would watch the SHIT out of this.

Okay this is fucked on so many levels.

AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Anyone stupid enough to give this man money gets what they deserve.

I'm glad she learned her lesson and was rehabilitated. Also RIP to Polis' career. Adios, fuckface.

Yes, Cajuns are famous for their seal blubber gumbo, and Inuit zydeco is a wonder to hear. This fuckin' idiot.

This is something I genuinely miss from my childhood. I mean, yeah, I suppose I could drive out to the middle of nowhere, but fuck that noise. If it's after dark I'm not leaving the house.

Why in God's holy name do people respond like this.

The bill allows companies like DoorDash and Uber to create and contribute to “portable benefits” accounts for drivers, to use for things like retirement and medical expenses, though their creation would not be mandatory. #wipolitics #DoorDash

Hahahahaha somehow he's never too busy to go to one of his shitty golf clubs.

Once they run out of women* to shitcan, it's his turn and he's too stupid to know it. *Not Linda McMahon because she will cut a bitch and Trump knows it.

Colbert at the WHCD was one of the more courageous things I have ever seen a comedian do. He knew he wasn't going to get a single laugh and he's there insulting the most powerful man in the country directly to his face. Amazing.

Architects of Death is my new band name.

Sure is odd how all these women keep getting shitcanned, isn't it?

Today in History: In 192 CE, Chinese warlord Dong Zhou was assassinated by his adopted son Lü Bu. And you thought YOUR kids were ingrates.

God damn, people are fuckin' stupid.

The only bad thing I have to say about Stephen Colbert is that he didn't slap the bitch out of Henry Kissinger's wrinkled old ass when he had the chance.

This is getting some interesting replies, and I would like to expand upon this When somebody rejoins with "America was always racist," or "Germany was always antisemitic," or, more generally, "We aren't better than this," what has happened is a complete failure to play a language game

The fact that there was a “kill millions of people” button and the button was pressed by stopping doing what we were doing to keep those people alive means the idea that the US was always and only a malign influence in the world is a masturbatory lie.

Notice how: 1) everyone has a completely different explanation for the vibecession, 2) everyone thinks their explanation is incredibly obvious, and 3) they’re mostly complete dicks to you for daring to suggest it’s a mystery

I hate this man so very, very much.

I sincerely wish that more people would learn to admit when they were wrong. It's not hard! And it keeps you from persisting in (often imbecilic) error.

Sounds like a problem fixing itself.

“I didnt watch the show, but here’s my take based on the memes” is the evils of internet fandom in a nutshell

I know he's a demented, hateful old fuck but there is something genuinely (albeit unintentionally) hilarious about referring to your firstborn son--the one with your own name--as "He's...a person I've known for a long time."

This isn't Boomer shit! Physical books rule.

See, this isn't entirely true. Racists did care! When ST: Voyager premiered in 1995, racist fuckwits did bitch about the Black Vulcan. But there was no social media to unify them! It was a few hateful dolts calling into radio talk shows with no network to bind them all together.

I'm pretty sure that painters wanted us to see WHAT THEY PUT ON THE FUCKING CANVAS YOU DOLTS.
