One of the (MANY) bad impacts of the Kavanaugh hearings is it taught everyone of these mouthbreathers that the way to appease the boss is to be obscenely combative in response to any non-sycophantic question. No matter how insane you sound

Was hoping to dig in this week, sharing exactly the same sentiment. Still not considering going to shows, but I’m definitely intrigued from what I have heard.
Ministry.
Walter White gym speech with Mets hat on
Statistically speaking, it's only the 6th worst, actually TIED for 6th worst, losing streak in franchise history. Do you know how many games the 1962 Mets lost?
The evil dead burn trailer is synonymous with being a Mets fan right now.
"The Overseer Class is a deeply rooted yet approachable analysis of how race in America is often a telemetric shorthand for class and interest, but remains only a shorthand." Grateful for this thoughtful review of THE OVERSEER CLASS in @inkstickmedia.com inkstickmedia.com/steven-thras...
Justin Fairfax. Former Lt. Gov of Virginia.
Most notably, killer of the woman to which he was married.
previously won litigation from the politician over defamation. The politician claimed we acted in "actual malice" because, in short, he claimed what happened didn't happen, and thus we shouldn't have published those claims. We of course mentioned his denial of accusations on air.
the politician? 2/
Late in the The Takeaway's history, we got sued by a politician for $35 million (more than the entire operating budget of the whole company), because we talked with a woman who had accused him of sexual assault, and we played some clips of another women saying the same thing from CBS, who had...1/
"Defendants included these statements in the Article only to brush them aside."
this might be my favorite legal line ever from a lawsuit. It's from Kash's lawsuit against the Atlantic.
It's in reference to other cabinet officials supporting him, although, not denying the accusations presented.
Staying indoors today (marijuana berzerker day) for my safety. Suggest you do the same.
“Mets”? Never heard of it. Doesn’t sound like the sort of thing I’d be interested in, to be honest.
MAGA-zine. It's like Squanch-World in Rick and Morty, where most words are just "squanch" in different contexts.
My latest.
I’ve been watching the media coverage of the murders of Dr. Cerina Fairfax and Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer.
One way media can fight back against male violence:
If you kill your wife, you don’t get to be called a “husband” any more.
You’re her killer.

“Men who kill their female partners and wives should, at the absolute fucking minimum, lose their right to be called partners, husbands, or “family men.“

We are less than a week away from the start of Jazzfest in New Orleans, so today's Crescent City Connection is a preview of the festival's first weekend. Let's go festing! 10am eastern on WFMU's Rock'n'Soul stream. wfmu.org/playlists/sh...

If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.
It has been really disturbing to see some people pay tribute to Dr. Cerina Fairfax’s killer without even mentioning her. The victims of domestic violence matter more than their husband’s political careers.

Democrat #AnaliliaMejia won a #NewJersey special election for the U.S. House on Thursday, defeating Republican Joe Hathaway on a message of standing up to President Donald Trump. #Politics

“I thought it was me as a doctor” is such a childish lie that the media’s refusal to call it that and drive in circles to say “trump denied it was an image of jesus and said he thought it was a doctor” is an implicit admission that they will never truthfully report on trump for the rest of his life
“Two can play at that game” is literally the Drebin quote here when he takes an innocent woman hostage to cluelessly fight the enemy

I flip the light switch and sound design a podcast before the lights turn off.
this track was on repeat on my ipod for a LONG LONG time in the early aughts: thenewdealband.bandcamp.com/track/a-litt...
really underrated album, certainly for "jambands" but for electronic music too! The whole thing absolutely slaps.
In which the president says a lot of very true things that have been true this entire time now that these people are criticizing him rather than supporting him.
Thank you to the night shift for your incredible work, tonight and every night.
HOW DO YOU HAVE A MISUNDERSTANDING OVER A DIPLOMATIC AGREEMENT? HOW DO BOTH SIDES NOT AGREE TO TERMS WRITTEN ON THE SAME PIECE OF PAPER? I'M LOSING MY MIND.
Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:
