It’s hard to grow up with no dad.

It’s also hard to grow up with a dad who’s a bottom feeding scumbag.

Brian Thompson was a scumbag. We can’t say whether it will be better or worse growing up without him. We can only say that if he wasn’t a scumbag, he’d probably still be here.

Friendly reminder that killing CEOs isn’t the only answer. Sometimes it’s throwing tea in a harbor. Or tarring and feathering a tax collector.

Just do your part.

From knowing a little about recruiting, if you have a bachelor’s degree and apply, they’re willing to drop one of their employees who barely finished high school.

It’s not worth it to replace an underperformer with someone else who’ll likely underperform. But if you can start with someone you deem “better” because they have a slightly more expensive piece of paper, it’s more worth the risk.

My wife loves Wacoal bras. A couple years ago, she finally found one of their bras in a pretty blue, instead of the normal beige.

They called the color “goblin blue” which of course made her feel great.

Yes. Special forces are vetted with lots of testing before joining. However, once they’re done doing things that make many psychologically stable people very unstable, they’re released back into the general population with little to no help or followup.

I love that the only thing standing between him and sexually asualting people is social media. If it wasn’t for Tom and MySpace taking social media to the masses, this guy would be a pervert. GeoCities was a thing, so he’s not a weird, masculinity obsessed rapist. We’re so lucky.

Every 4 years, hundreds of millions of people set their conscience to the side and continue to vote for the thing they’ll complain about until the next time, when they do it all again.

I think they think Donald Trump is the standard. It’s important to remember that he isn’t. That’s an easy comparison, and some roadkill wins that contest. Being better than the worst isn’t enough of a selling point. 2016 proved that. Be better.

But, if the goal isn’t necessarily to win the election, only to absolve yourself of blame if you lose the election, then blaming 3rd party voters is the stance for you.

Could it be a poor political platform, or just not even campaigning in the state? Maybe it’s just not being appealing enough to the 40% of the electorate that doesn’t vote. Couldn’t be.

I feel like all the hate for 3rd parties is the same as the hate for immigrants. It’s all redirection and obfuscation.

Can’t be a coincidence that these oil rigs are in the Gulf of MEXICO, creating storms to illegally cross our borders.

Or…

Dems are trying to assassinate TRUMP again with this sad, pitiful storm. Never seen one more pitiful. Mar a Lago is great. Really great. Trump will ride out this hurricane. Never fear.

People talk about it all the time. Ron Paul was a household name. People we’re talking about RFK JR a year ago. People were talking about 3rd parties due to Biden’s stance on Palestine. People were talking about it after that first debate. All that’s fine, but it only makes the two main parties sweat within 30 days of election. That’s when all the “throwing your vote away” rhetoric ramps up.

Rather than doing better, working harder, or standing on better policy to turn out the 35% of people who don’t vote, it’s easier to vilify 1% of the people who do. That’s a problem.

Most standups are bad because they’re not used as a quick collaboration tool, they’re used as a demonstration to prove you’re working, and then the least productive people talk the most because they’re the most desperate to prove they’re working.

I would disagree. I used to live in Rosman, NC, about an hour south of Asheville.

This is absolutely a precedented tragedy. It is run of the mill. That’s because of climate change. Because of climate change, these 100 year floods are occurring once a decade. Yes, this is the biggest in those hundred years, but there are communities who are enormously affected by this regularly.

Calling it unprecedented plays into climate deniers hands. It wasn’t normal. But it is becoming normal. It is precedented. We caused it. If it’s unprecedented, people will ignore it as an oddity, an outlier. But people living there should expect this.

Bart Starr was pretty cool. Seems like a nice guy.

“Oh yeah, bud. That chicken sure was a jerk. Very spicy.”

My inlaws from Illinois, probably.

I have a cool blog I made for class with lots of techy stuff. Can you check it out and tell me what you think?

There are a billion ways that people are suffering. You can talk about any of them. Inventing new ones doesn’t mean you care. It means the opposite.

No, these strawless, non-gay, heterosexual, manly men are just like me. They were handed a spoon, but not a straw in the drive through and they decided to just drive off rather than bother or inconvenience someone, even though it wouldn’t be a bother or inconvenience, it’s the person’s job, and they’d be happy to help. I am married though, so while I wouldn’t say my wife is specifically attracted to that brand of social awkwardness, she’s not entirely repulsed by it.

Hey, hey! Fake news! He wanted to nuke a hurricane.

Getting a little addicted to video games is normal, even for men in their 30s. What’s not normal is peeing on prostitutes in a bed Obama slept in.
