The cake is a lie

[Lord Rollingpin]

The Jacket is hungry.

[Tonio]

Must be able to post links in a timely fashion, preferably with alt-text.

[sarcasmic]

I nominate our resident librarian.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

I don't see anything about hair requirements.

[DJF]

We will all be wearing our hair Trump style by then

[Irish is a Millennial, Poll Me]

I would like an answer to a question that all prospective libertarian interns should want to know the answer to - if I became your intern, could I rub Robby's hair or hang out with streetwalkers with Elizabeth Nolan Brown?

I'm just looking to cross some things off my bucket list.

[Hamster of Doom]

Why do y'all pay your interns to proofread? That's what we're for.

[Irish is a Millennial, Poll Me]

"Why do y'all pay your interns to proofread?"

Wait, there's someone proofreading Reason articles?!?!

How many obvious typos are there before the proofreaders get through?

[UnCivilServant]

There is so much red ink you'd think the murders took place there.

[UnCivilServant]

So, $400 a week (approximated) in the DC area - that's how many roommates to live?

[Citizen X]

That's sharing a walk-in closet with three other people if you're lucky. Hope the interns are comfortable with hotbunking.

[mashed potatoes]

Can someone with a full time job apply and then just telecommute from Iowa? I think it sounds like fun.. I imagine you guys just drink all day and then rant a little online.

[UnCivilServant]

Formal education in journalism is not necessary, but prior publication and a clear commitment to a career in the field is. Candidates should have strong writing and research chops, but video production knowledge and skills are a plus. Strong preference for D.C. Competitive salary and benefits. Please submit resume, cover letter, and 3-5 published clips to

BLARG!

Why is it with every field you have to already have had a job in it to get a job in it?

[waffles]

I'm pretty sure your comments count as publication.

[Citizen X]

Well, Ken's and SugarFree's do, anyway.

[UnCivilServant]

I have tried twice now to add a comment linking to the average pay for a journalist and commenting how IT pays better...

But the reason infrastructure flips out and throws an error at the URL.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

BTW, Fifth Column Podcast, EP 8 is up.

[Citizen X]

Oh man, wouldn't if be hilarious if Pirate Truther got the gig?

Do it, Reason. Hire a skeletal, one-eyed "liberty consultant" to be your intern. That would be so awesome.

[Irish is a Millennial, Poll Me]

Who is Pirate Truther and why do I not know about this person who sounds like the greatest man alive?

[SugarFree]

He comments very rarely, usually a long, semi-coherent rant. If you go to his underlinked blog, there is a lot of pirate and 9/11 truther stuff.

[SugarFree]

Here is an early appearance.

[Citizen X]

That thread was the best thing to result from the events of 9/11. Which is sad on a number of levels.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

2] _Nothing_ we saw on TV that morning was genuine live footage.

The supposed live imagery from the 5 networks that morning was faked [i.e prefabricated on computers], including the 2nd plane hit [Fl.175] , and the tower collapse imagery [WTC 2, then WTC1, then WTC7], [N.B. the entire WTC complex was conventionally demolished via explosives, _off_ camera.]

Well at least he didn't say it was done with the clever application of mirrors.

[Citizen X]

Sometimes he quotes lyrics from a song he wrote, complete with a link to a YouTube video of him performing it inaudibly at a bar.

[SugarFree]

And that is the thread that mrtrueman outed himself as a truther. Maoist, holocaust denier and a 9/11 Truther. He's a winner, man.

[Citizen X]

Oh hee hee, man.

I accept that that Jews did it. Don't you?

reply to this
mtrueman|9.11.15 @ 2:57PM|#

"I accept that that Jews did it."

Produce your evidence if you have any. If it's not too tedious, I'll have a look.

MTRUEMAN IS WILLING TO CAREFULLY CONSIDER EVIDENCE THAT THE JOOS DID 9/11.

YARR, I BE READY TO SAIL THE BOUNDING MAIN, BUT THAR BE CHEMTRAILS"
