Fantasy and fantastic author. I have groped more ghosts and annoyed more felonious teens than 99.9% of people.

Democrats say the midterms are about the price of gas, food, and healthcare. Republicans say the midterms are about a trans kid who once played high school sports. Donald Trump says the midterms are about a gold-embossed arch and ballroom. Weary voters just want peace and quiet.

I simply would not want my brand associated with KKK lynchings. Conversely, some companies would welcome it.

Either it was intentional, which is ghastly and boycotting is too good for them, or the entirety of the ad department was willfully clueless.

Podcasts can take ads from any ethical company.

That said, I demand that the hosts be forced to listen to each ad ten times in a row before accepting it. If it makes them want to kill a puppy by the fifth iteration, maybe spare us the new Cars4Kids?

Mr. Trump’s choice to lead a mass pledge of allegiance to himself, followed by commanding his followers to cheat in the upcoming election, was unusual by presidential standards.

I did not know this intellectually. That said, the moment I read "Ayn Rand" and "cat fursona," it was as though I had always known.
People never believe me when I say that Ayn Rand used to write letters to her husband in the voice of her cat fursona

There isn't actually spooky music in this clip.

That's the warning sound your brain plays when anything looks at you the way Holmes just looked at Fielder.
Thirty-four days before she reported to prison, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes gave Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim access to document her every move.

That turned into a three-year project, and A24 will release the resulting documentary this October.

Wait a damn minute. The things Arday did, like the marathons, had been previously covered, with first hand primary sources, by English news orgs, contemporaneously?!?!

And yet the Telegraph and others just kept repeating that he'd lied about them, despite tons of documentation they happened?! 🤬🤬🤬

I once made a couple's eyes completely glaze over when they dared to ask me to explain Gef.

I tried to warn them.
A vague sketch of the Dalby Spook, our Talking Mongoose, our Gef (pronounced [Jef]), is sufficient to get most people to check out from the conversation....

We can forgive a lot of things, but never the theft of that Montblanc.

It gives me the shivers even imagining it. The footage is grisly.

Do you think that if there were pictures of Obama hiding in a catering cart while sending his staff to die in his place, they would call him courageous and smart?

Did Karoline Leavitt figure out that Trump would actively feed her into a thresher, leaving her children orphans, because he got scared?

Or was it that the cross burned too much when she lied?

No. No. The expiration on every Mar-a-Lago Barbie is short.
