– Atlas Shrugged Off Taxes (via azspot)
This is why I get so mad when our so-called titans of industry threaten to “go Galt” and move to someplace where they won’t have to pay any taxes. You’ve ALREADY pretty much stopped paying taxes! The government you claim to hold in so...

lord have mercy on the middle-aged white christian...
If you’ve ever listened to one of his appearances on Paul Finebaum’s radio show, you already knew Tim Brando was pompous and staggeringly self-important, but if you haven’t, he was kind enough to remind all of us yesterday.
The tweet (since deleted) Bomani Jones RT’d above was blurted out in the course of a demi-rant about NBA player Jason Collins publicly announcing his...

i'm the dude hired by a dude to ask other dudes...
Fixing to start my new job in … about an hour, actually. Thus bringing an end to about a week-and-a-half between-jobs period where I could sit around the house, drink beer and watch Braves games in the middle of the day if that was what I wanted to do (and it frequently was).
I don’t know if “have beer fridge installed in my office” is something I want to bust out with my...

where they're setting the bar for 'liberator'...
I realize that, as someone who’s spent the past week basically doing nothing but packing, moving and unpacking boxes, I’m way late to the party on this. But there’s something about the way Margaret Thatcher’s being remembered as a hero that just seems … well, naive at best, willfully dishonest at worst.
The Iron Lady, we’re told, was a “liberator.”...

i can't go to sleep, i can't shut my eyes
icarusing:
people who fall asleep quickly and easily make me so irrationally angry
like wow it must be so nice not to lie in bed for hours replaying every negative moment you’ve ever had in your entire life every single night
The last time I could count on sleeping all the way through the night and getting a good eight or nine hours was when I was just out of college. And I’m not even...

– Michael Moore: My Congressman, Bart Stupak, Has Neither a Uterus Nor a Brain (via veruca-assault)
I don’t always agree with Michael Moore, but … yup.
It’s a very rigged game the right wing is playing. They want an end to abortion, but they don’t really want an end to...

'war never doesn't hurt'
It wasn’t just that we were right. I mean, we were, but this isn’t meant to be an “I told you so.” This wasn’t a subject for gloating about 10 years ago and it definitely isn’t now. Sure, there was no credible evidence that Saddam was loved up with al-Qaeda, and only the most threadbare indication that he’d developed any WMDs worth a damn, but who knows?...

I would be DTF if you had a winter beard.
“Your beard looks good today.”

Dave Chappelle - Black Bush
Still one of the finest sketches ever aired on TV. Still has me crying with laughter even though Bush hasn’t been in office in more than four years.

how not to talk about global warming
This, for starters.
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/294894996279148544
Yeah, freezing cold temperatures are definitely unusual for this time of year. Except oh wait, they’re not, because you know why? IT’S FUCKING WINTER. You know what is unusual, though? Seventy-two degrees and fucking tornado warnings in January. Which is what we went through yesterday down in Georgia.
