Dust off those gym memberships! Chris Pratt and Anna Faris are back on the market!

Nooooo! Not Chrisis!

Hello.

RIP Almanian. Your 2020 run was not to be.

/dons sunglasses.

Enjoyed his sense of humour over the years.

[Pro Libertate]

This sucks.

[fish]

This sucks.

Yes it does!

Godspeed Almanian!

"He probably won't make it worse"

Truly one of Reason's better memes.

He will be missed.

[Rhywun]

Damn. Enjoyed his bagpipe anecdotes. RIP!

Uffda. Quite the bad deal here.

RIP. He will be missed.

[lap83]

I'm sorry to hear that. RIP

[Cynical Asshole]

Your 2020 run was not to be.

No necessarily. I've long thought that a corpse would make a better president than any of the shitheads who actually get elected.

[Get To Da Chippah]

RIP. I shall raise a glass in his name tonight.

Yes. And libertarians have the reputation of being anti social.

He is concerned that Trump's presidency has a 50 percent chance of ending in "disaster."

But there's only a ten percent chance of that.

[$park? leftist poser]

Last poll I heard about said 33 percent.

[Anomalous]

He's a cockeyed optimist then.

[Entelechy]

That translates into a 150% chance of beginning in disaster.

Today in celebrity news: Dust off those gym memberships! Chris Pratt and Anna Faris are back on the market!

When did Anna Faris change from cute to crazy hot?

[Crusty Juggler]

She is far from crazy hot, so far that the once fun, cuddly, lovable Chris Pratt became a studly, boring leading man, he could no longer be seen with her.

Sad really. Stay fat, people - it makes you more interesting.

[CE]

She was both all along.

[Fist of Etiquette]

The president is feuding with Democratic Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal.

Someone's staff is readying donor emails as we speak.

[Libertarian]

You're the last one I expected to delve into euphemisms.

[Elias Fakaname]

Blumenthal, whether Sydney or Richard, is a huge piece of shit.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

Trump went to Twitter to point out that Blumenthal lied about serving in Vietnam.

Mess with the Trump, get left in a hump, rump and dump.

[Fist of Etiquette]

The ruling party in Australia continues to block efforts to let lawmakers vote on whether to legally recognize same-sex marriages.

The first step to not recognizing same-sex marriage is not recognizing the will of the people.

[Telcontar the Wanderer]

They are not letting the people vote, its about politicians

The GOP has become the party of the grotesque

"Anything that comes out of the South," said writer Flannery O'Connor, a sometime exemplar of Southern Gothic, "is going to be called grotesque by the Northern reader, unless it is grotesque, in which case it is going to be called realistic." But, realistically, Alabama's primary says more about Republicans than about this region. A Michigan poll shows rocker-cum-rapper Kid Rock a strong potential Republican Senate candidate against incumbent Debbie Stabenow. Rock says Democrats are "shattin' in their pantaloons" because if he runs it will be "game on mthrfkers."

Is this Northern Gothic? No, it is Republican Gothic, the grotesque becoming normal in a national party whose dishonest and, one hopes, futile assault on Brooks is shredding the remnants of its dignity.

[Libertarian]

"Is this Northern Gothic? No, it is Republican Gothic, . . ."

How convenient that when it happens in the South, it's a southern aberration, but when it's in the North it's "let's blame the GOP!"

[BestUsedCarSales]

This article is really rambling.

[Elias Fakaname]

Yet the democrats are the party of great thinkers like Al Franken...........

[Elias Fakaname]

..........and Kamala Harris, and Maxine Waters.

And yet they think they are sooo much better than us ugly Americans.

[SKR]

Anyone that says American tourists are the worst has either never encountered an Australian tourist, mistaken the Australian tourist for an American, or are a lying sack of shit. Australians are the fucking worst.

The Toxic Drama on YA Twitter

a growing number of critics say the draggings, well-intended though they may be, are evidence of a growing dysfunction in the world of YA publishing. One author and former diversity advocate described why she no longer takes part: "I have never seen social interaction this fucked up," she wrote in an email. "And I've been in prison."

Many members of YA Book Twitter have become culture cops, monitoring their peers across multiple platforms for violations. The result is a jumble of dogpiling and dragging, subtweeting and screenshotting, vote-brigading and flagging wars, with accusations of white supremacy on one side and charges of thought-policing moral authoritarianism on the other.
Representatives of both factions say they've received threats or had to shut down their accounts owing to harassment, and all expressed fear of being targeted by influential community members ? even when they were ostensibly on the same side. "If anyone found out I was talking to you," Mimi told me, "I would be blackballed."

I look forward to their involvement in politics.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

This bickering has the tenor of a soft, melodious, violin solo.

[Libertarian]

"I look forward to their involvement in politics."

But don't you think 99% of the cause of this is anonymity? We see instances of road rage every day between people who wouldn't be as upset if they were walking on the side walk instead of sitting behind tinted window. And look at Antifa: literally masked when they take to the streets.

[Crusty Juggler]

I think that is a cause sure - tribalism without borders is an issue, but it's an issue that's only going to get worse, plus it's a sad fact that anonymous morons on Twitter mattered this past election cycle, and I assume that is going to get worse as well.

[Libertarian]

You're probably right; I was thinking of elected politicians, not minions.

[Crusty Juggler]

Great, now I am terrified they will run for office.

Thanks, monster.

Police hunt mother-of-one 'who gave oral sex to man in the middle of a McDonald's restaurant in broad daylight'

I respect America's white trash heroes:

Jacblecki, who describes himself as 'head honcho at Oasis Landscaping,' on Facebook has previously been convicted of disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.

He also has a conviction for exposing himself to a woman and her five-year-old daughter on a Maryland beach in 2012, for which he received 60 days in jail.

His Facebook account contains repeated posts of photos and text related to sex.

He wrote in 2016 that he'd been looking for 'a bad b***h W/ mean head game [sic].'

'So Hot when a woman knows how too,' Jablecki added. 'Dam i sure can't wait to meet a Girl who is a SupaFreak.'

[BestUsedCarSales]

The only thing he is guilty of is vocalizing it I imagine. It's just repression on the part of those who deem themselves better.

[Jerryskids]

OMG: Meet The Professor Who Says Sex In A Blackout Isn't Always Rape

Fromme, a clinical psychology professor at the University of Texas at Austin, has testified in, consulted on, or provided depositions for more than 50 criminal, civil, and military cases since 2009, the majority of which have involved men accused of sexually assaulting drunk women. In all but a handful of those cases, she has worked on behalf of the accused, whose lawyers hire her to explain how research shows it's possible to engage in voluntary activities during an alcohol-induced blackout. More specifically, Fromme will say that a woman can voluntarily have sex while blacked out, even if she can't remember doing so.

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

But what about during a blackout?

[Telcontar the Wanderer]

Oh, it's fine, Tasers don't need extension cords anymore.

[Elias Fakaname]

And chloroform is always a good standby.

[Telcontar the Wanderer]

RRRRRRRRRRRRRAPE CULTURE!

{activates SJW Signal, shines it into clouds}

[colorblindkid]

I know for a fact I am visibly coherent during my alcohol-induced blackouts, and have been taken advantage of in such situations. Not rape.

[Eek Barba Durkle]

More specifically, Fromme will say that a woman can voluntarily have sex while blacked out, even if she can't remember doing so.

She means PEOPLE can voluntarily have sex while blacked out, right? I mean, surely gender doesn't affect autonomy while intoxicated.

[EscherEnigma]

Hrm...

Looking at the Texas Penal Code 22.011, it looks like that under a.1.C that "envelopment" counts, so in Texas a woman can rape a man by sitting on his dick? without his consent. That said, historically-speaking a woman hasn't always been capable of committing the crime of rape against a man without resorting to sodomy, and I think that's still true for some states (which is why I checked), similar to how many rape laws used to have exceptions for married couples (meaning marital rape also wasn't a crime).

Looking further, under section b the statute defines "consent", and a lot of hinges on the "actor" (that is, perpetrator) knowing that the "other person" (that is, victim) isn't conscious/capable of consenting/etc.

So without looking into the morals and history of this woman, and giving her the benefit of the doubt, it appears you are correct and she should have been more general.

That said? People (generally speaking) respond to rape cases very differently based on the victim and defendant. So it's quite possible that this professor really doesn't care about men-as-victims and considers them incidental.

Here Is The Alias Email Account Loretta Lynch Used As Attorney General

Using the pseudonym "Elizabeth Carlisle," Lynch corresponded with DOJ press officials to hammer out talking points in response to media requests about the meeting. The tarmac encounter drew criticism from conservatives because Lynch was overseeing the federal investigation into whether Hillary Clinton mishandled classified information on her private email system.

[Pro Libertate]

Well, this seems vaguely, I dunno, improper.

[Libertarian]

Didn't Obama use a pseudonym too?

[Jerryskids]

Yes. Obama.

http://www.politico.com/story/.....fbi-228607

"President Barack Obama used a pseudonym in email communications with Hillary Clinton and others, according to FBI records made public Friday.

The disclosure came as the FBI released its second batch of documents from its investigation into Clinton's private email server during her tenure as secretary of state."

Bakers refused to make pro-Trump birthday cake for 9-year-old boy

A boy whose letter to President Trump made national headlines last month reportedly wanted a pro-Trump cake for his birthday party, but his mother was unable to find a baker willing to fulfill the order.

America's hierarchy in 2017:

1: Feminists
2: Gays
3: Blacks
4: Browns
5: Trans
6: Our children.

It's time to ramp up the culture war, team.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

This is fucking irksome because of lefty hypocrisy; but it has added depth of consideration because I'm still siding with Baker's rights. More than anything though, props to the mother for dealing with it like a rational adult instead of a sue crazy crybaby.

[Telcontar the Wanderer]

Okay, so, first: RIP to this Almanian gentleman. I don't recall ever seeing his comments in the brief time I've been present, but if he was capable of making the affectedly monstrous denizens of H'n'R express this much genuine warmth, he must have been a powerful necromancer indeed.

Now, second: contest time!

Please explain in one paragraph or sentence what this Google 10-page document thing is about, and what the sides are saying, so I don't have to look it up elsewhere. Profanity, ad hominems, and veiled threats of disembowlment are, in case it needed to be said, allowed.

Danielle Brown, Google's brand new vice president of diversity, integrity, and governance rushed to introduce herself to the company, then weigh in on the memo. "[L]ike many of you, I found that it advanced incorrect assumptions about gender. I'm not going to link to it here as it's not a viewpoint that I or this company endorses, promotes or encourages," she wrote in an internal note

TL;DR: someone grumbled about mandatory diversity initiatives; that somebody was stoned to death for the crime of wrong-think.

Dear Internet,

Something something diversity. Feel free to not actually read it and just assume I'm Hitler then freak out about it until the next racist squirrel scampers across your path.

[BestUsedCarSales]

Summary:

We all have inherent bias, this is unavoidable and we must be unafraid to openly discuss them. There is strong evidence of general trends in male/female behavior that explain much of the demographic issues at Google.
We cannot effectively deal with these differences without being open about the facts of the matter, attempting to deny any difference between any people is counterproductive. Finally, betterment will come by looking to focus on improving specific problems, rather than classifying them as a female/male divide.

[Jerryskids]

See, that's the whole problem - the guy addressed the issue in a logical, rational manner, i.e., mansplained it. Men privilege rationality and logic over feelings and intuition and that oppresses women and their other ways of knowing. Nevermind that science is all about the cold, hard facts and the cold, hard facts are called cold, hard facts because facts don't give a shit what you think or how it makes you feel, they just are. It's a cold, hard fact that men's brains and women's brains generally tend to work differently and that leads to differences in abilities in different areas. Some people just don't feel that to be true.

[colorblindkid]

I love the inherently sexist complaints of mansplaining, as if women are incapable of fending for themselves or processing information for themselves.

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

I would, but I also have no interest in reading 10 pages about Google's diversity efforts.

[Libertarian]

Some guy wrote a screed about Google being a politically correct echo chamber that did not tolerate intellectual dissent. Now that his identity is known, there are calls to have him fired. Who could have seen that coming?

"He is concerned that Trump's presidency has a 50 percent chance of ending in "disaster.""

This is barely better than the claim that the stock market will tank sometime.
What "disaster"?

[Trigger Warning]

I am concerned Uncle Dolan's presidency will end with President Sanders and Vice President Sacagawea Warren signing the National Health Care Act. Imagine if the libtards had fielded someone even remotely likable, instead of The Hag.

The Hag is a woman so reviled that she lost a presidential election to Donald J. Trump. You can't manufacture somebody that hated overnight. It takes decades of lying, swindling taxpayers, power-grabbing, palace intrigue, and enabling your philandering scumbag of a husband to get there.

So, if President Twitter and his Congress continue to fail, and if libtards manage to offer a candidate just a couple rungs above The Hag in the "not a horrible person" category of existence, and the Republicans continue to demonstrate that they are in fact feckless cowards who are unable to even pretend to govern, Uncle Dolan and his traffic cone tan might not be such a sure thing.

[Rufus The Monocled]

Be nice! Chelsea may be reading this!

[Trigger Warning]

Imagine if The Hag was your mom, and your dad was a serially cheating sleazeball, and that both of them loved power and money more than they loved you, and that you grew up knowing that. In front of millions of people.

I guess you just say "Fuck it" and turn to the Dark Side. At least when this future President Clinton gets caught with an intern, there might be video. For Crusty's viewing "pleasure."

"The Hag is a woman so reviled that she lost a presidential election to Donald J. Trump. You can't manufacture somebody that hated overnight."

The passenger says he was looking for the papers the officer was demanding.

"License and registration, please."

[Trigger Warning]

At least this guy made it out alive. Remember the cop who murdered the guy reaching for his license and registration? The cop recently got off free and clear.

I like to remember the cop that killed a 12-year-old boy less than two seconds after he, the cop, jumped out of his patrol car with his weapon drawn? He screamed at that child as he was shooting him. He was screaming at him to put the gun down. The plastic, toy gun.

It puts a bad day in perspective. Well, it also reminds me that cops can murder children and not be charged with murder, or strung up the nearest tree by a mob of enraged citizens; which, while not being justice, is still more satisfying than what actually happened to that cop, which was nothing.

I was telling my nephew Saturday that I'd stopped by the store Friday evening to pick up a couple things and on the way to the counter I saw a pack of those soft peanut butter cookies the dog likes and I just automatically picked him up a pack as a little treat. It wasn't until I got out to the car and sat the cookies on the seat that I remembered we stuck the dog in a hole in the back yard last week and he ain't eating no peanut butter cookies no more. And I had to cry just a little bit because you just don't realize how a stupid dog becomes a part of your life after so many years,. Kinda feel that way about Almanian and some of the people here.

Kultur War Fight:

Google was right to fire his ass. We're not talking about fire fighters, or soldiers, or NLF linebackers. We're talking about desk jobs in a tech company. You don't need testosterone or a penis to code software. When you get out of the realm of muscle mass, women are every bit as capable as men. Period.

So why aren't there more women in tech is because the men in tech are such assholes. Men have an advantage merely that men have a higher tolerance for jerks. Which means that the women that remain are BETTER than the men, because they can put up with more shit.
