I don’t understand why you don’t just put the kids in the helicopter and fly them up to Grandpa’s condo?

Well, it was the maid of honor, so.

Give it to me.

I hope you’re referring to the unfinished compilation Salmon of Doubt as the sixth, and not that weak sub-fanfic tripe by Eoin Colfer.

Lamb was great! Really does a fantastic job of highlighting the hypocrisy inherent in modern religious constructs.

Godel, Escher, Bach
Infinite Jest
The Lord of the Rings
The Demon-Haunted World
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Slaughterhouse-Five
Small Gods
Master and Commander

and everything else written by those authors.

The first two or three on that list might take several fits and starts to get through, YMMV, but they are WELL worth the effort, and you will come out the other side changed by the experience. The others are all pretty easily digestible, but no less transformative.

That they hate America? Yeah, I gathered that.

Hey Nikki? Hey, maybe that’s not a good thing. Maybe that’s something you shouldn’t be happy about, and something you should push back against if you actually care about your party or your country.

What’s that? You only care about your own skin?

Physically, anyway. Mentally? Depends on how late in the evening it is.

A sound bite of him soiling himself on mic would be fun.

Saddest thing is nobody is going to watch this who hasn’t already decided.

The people who voted for him in the last two elections, who would gladly lick the diaper leakage dribbling down his leg off his lifted loafers, will not watch this. They will watch the clips of Fox News sycophants highlighting the two or three gotcha lines and declare him the victor, regardless of his performance.

People on the fence will tune it out, as they have everything else, because they are absolute fucking morons who don’t give a shit about anything outside their own sight line.

Harris supporters will confirm that she is a competent orator and debater who won against a gibbering human suitcase full of soiled laundry, and nothing will change.

Ask a Palestinian in the West Bank if they think Hamas are terrorists or freedom fighters.

“Terrorist” is a thought-terminating cliche.

Both Israel and Hamas are religious extremists who exploit and murder innocent civilians. Neither one is worthy of our aid or our defense. Send aid to the poor people caught in the middle of this shit and stop sending weapons.

The other side gives bribes too. The only difference is that Israel has a stronger lobby and a bigger pot to finance their payoffs.

This will never end until we get the money out of politics.

The lobbyists getting fat and rich off their layouts from weapons manufacturers will ensure it never gets done. Who do you think Israel is getting all their guns and drones and missiles from? Guess what? It’s the same place Hamas gets theirs from. The only difference between them is the number of bank accounts and off-the-books deals on the way there.

Those bombs will keep flowing to both sides as long as money keeps flowing back. Ideology has nothing to do with it. It’s all about the cash.

If the US stopped taking sides in this ass conflict, maybe the corrupt fuckers running the war from both sides would have a harder time profiting from it and knock it the fuck off.

There’s a YouTube short that strips out the autotune. Might be useful for driving away rodents from inside your walls.

You say you want a revolution, well you know…

Elections are not the time to be “fixing things”. Elections are for deciding on who has the best tools at the moment to fix things once the election is settled. Jill Stein doesn’t have any tools at all (unless you want to be crass and call her and her supporters tools), so all she can do is criticize what the other guys have and hope maybe they’ll get mad enough to drop some at her.

Idealism kills.

You’re deeply misrepresenting the position. We’re not desperate to keep the duopoly. We’re desperate to keep it from collapsing into a dictatorship, and you’re over there trying to kick its legs off.
