Never mind the ridiculousness of this story but there is no way he could walk 2 miles….and why not have the car drive her there?

What kind bullshit is that, she is black he would tell driver to run her over, especially if its dark and nobody else around.

This post 6 months ago should have ended support for Trump among Christians, but far too many of them don't mind blasphemy if it comes with a side order of racism and sexism.

My SP was liked and retweeted by 22 people I'm not mutuals with. They couldn't bother to follow me because they want to keep their follower count higher than the number of people they follow? That shocks me. But not this guy. That shocks me too. I feel like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. 😊

The proto-Effin’ Birds was my Tumblr “Swear Trek”. It opened a lot of doors for me and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. I don’t have plans to revive it (one daily comic is enough work), just wanted to thank it for getting me here on this 60th anniversary of Star Trek.

The marker at the edge of the Iowa cornfield in which Buddy Holly died in 1959. One of my own photos, taken a few years ago. In all honesty, I couldn't believe it when I got there. Sometimes a guy gets lucky.

This is a terrific illustration -- for elected officials but also for media figures -- of the incredible power of simply refusing to take a bullshit dodge for an answer. Keep asking the question, over and over again, and make the weasels squirm.
