Bari Weiss' whole career has been laundering far-right talking points for reactionary "centrists."

She's a ghoul, and I have to think that she knows it but the pay is good.

I used to be a technician for a BMW dealership where we serviced an Alpina B7 with eyelashes. Clearly money can't buy taste.

In announcing his Senate candidacy, Sasse expressed strong opposition to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), calling himself "the anti-Obamacare candidate" and declaring that "If it lives, America as we know it will die." In the Senate, Sasse continued to support repeal of the ACA. In 2017, with Republicans unable to develop a repeal-and-replace plan that could secure a majority in the Senate, Sasse proposed an immediate repeal with a one-year delay in implementation, and called on the Senate to give up its August recess to allow it to work on a replacement measure.

I have no sympathy for people who condemn others to death or poverty in order to enrich themselves. Reap the whirlwind, motherfucker.

If this was a just world, it would be the name of the leaky prison hulk that he's chained up inside.

"This isn't who we are."

Literally un-American bullshit.

That would be the absolute funniest option.

I've got my money on his legs exploding like microwaved sausages during the State of the Union. If I win, I'm set for life.

How dare you. Those cognitive tests were preventative.

Yeah, those graphics are kind of crazy for the GBC.

Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine combination is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (uncontrollable desire for sleep or sudden attacks of deep sleep). These two medicines belong to the group of medicines called central nervous system (CNS) stimulants.

Yeah, I don't know how being an ex-cop makes his arrest worse per his complaint. I'm pretty sure most people hate getting locked up for speech.

But it's still a bullshit charge that threatens all of us.

 

I try to space them out; it would bum me out to not have another book or movie waiting that I'm sure I'll love. Also, if I burn through their works so fast I don't feel like I can think about them as individual works as much as I'd like.

 

Give me your wordplay and obscure culture references, I love them all.

 

Obligitory "I have to use it for my job," so let's commiserate.

It's the worst program in all of the Office Suite. MS wrote the goddamn OS and email client, but for some reason if I have two instances open for two different inboxes and try to pull one up on the taskbar, the wrong instance will pull up every single time without fail.

My runner-up complaint is how when I use the search bar, sometimes it'll forget what I'm doing and when I hit enter it'll open some email instead of executing the search.

Every update makes it worse, so what drives you crazy?

 

In the tech sense- what is your favorite way that someone has used systems in unintended ways to do something cool?

I like the one where a guy used a wiimote for head tracking.

 

I'm a fan of braunschweiger on butter crackers. Top-tier snack food.

 
 

I'd have to go with the wood grain Atari 2600, I'm a sucker for 70's designed electronics.

 

I think they've been watching too much porn.
