the thing I love most about Kirk’s string of ex lovers across the galaxy is that every time he runs into one he’s like
“!!!!! How are you!! I missed you so much!! How’s your career?? Successful?? I’m so happy for you!! Haha, remember that time we almost got married!! But both of our careers were in the way?? That hasn’t changed but I’m still kinda in love with you and I’m happy you’re doing well!!! Goodbye forever again it’s a shame we never got married but I understand!!”
Bring back this kind of male hero please and thank you.
So my boyfriend came out as trans last night and I realized something… back when we first started dating we identified as lesbians, then I came out as trans and consequently realized I’m bisexual, and now I’m in a gay relationship. So what I’m trying to say is that I have actually been LGBT as a singular person. Every single acronym. I have ascended and reached gay nirvana
So, to sum up, people are being deported, anything resembling civil rights is being stripped, we're going through round after round of "take the health care away from the nation," we're actively engaging in conversation about the proper nomenclature for nazis, but Comey feels good about himself, so it's all OK.
FBI Director James Comey said Wednesday that he had no good options when it came to deciding whether to notify Congress 11 days before the presidential election that the bureau was reopening its investigation into Hillary Clinton's email practices.
Comey famously chose to send a letter to lawmakers on October 28, 2016, disclosing the new investigation. That letter was promptly made public by Republicans and, according to experts, it likely had a significant effect on the outcome of the race—despite the fact that the renewed probe turned up nothing incriminating. In his testimony Wednesday, Comey said that even though he felt sick at the thought that his actions might have affected the election, he would make the same choice again.
"This was terrible," he told Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.). "It makes me mildly nauseous to think that we might have had some impact on the election. But honestly, it wouldn't change the decision."
Comey said he had to make a choice between speaking or concealing the fact that he was reopening the investigation. "Even in hindsight—and this has been one of the world's most painful experiences—I would make the same decision," he said. "I would not conceal that."
Comey also emphasized that he "didn't make a public announcement" about the renewed investigation but rather sent a "private letter" to the leaders of the congressional oversight committees. That statement drew laughter from Feinstein.
"On the letter, it was just a matter of minutes before the world knew about it," Feinstein said.

It's the weirdest thing, my congresscritter's voicemail seems to be full?
After much wrangling and “personal arm-twisting” by President Donald Trump himself, the AP reports that the House is set to vote Thursday on a healthcare bill that will repeal and replace Obamacare.
Why do my interests in canning, couponing, and homesteading overlap so often with blogs with titles like ‘The Obedient Housewife’?
Like, I’m like, “I want to learn to make soap and farm,” and suddenly I see 500 “traditional family” motherfuckers like no you are mistaken. I am just a simple lesbian anticapitalist looking to limit my consumerism as much as possible.
‘these fun crafts will keep your kids occupied until your husband gets home!’ no i want a clothespin crown for me
“ladies, adorn your crafty country homestead with handmade quilts just like your grandmother!” my grandmother lived in downtown st paul and enjoyed gin fizzes and rhinestone cat clocks, also i’m a man, but thanks
clearly there is an unfilled niche for lesbian anticapitalist craft blogs
It’s been three years since DashCon and Fyre Fest has happened. Meaning that in accordance to the Rule of Three, in another three years, a third and final gathering catastrophe will occur with its own symbol joining the ball pit and concierge stand to create an ungodly trifecta.
I cannot wait.

I for one hope this Prophesied Third Catastrophe will lure all the Reddit MRAs into the woods and leave them there
So…she did just admit that she would be starving if she had to do it, right?
But to her that is a good and healthy thing™ apparently
wow.
Rich people have no empathy. I don’t know who this pretense of human being is but. She’s rich. “I’d be so 😄😃 SKINNY😁😁😆😂😜” like have a bit of self awareness. We’re talking about important stuff. Things that have a severe impact on millions of people. You admit that you *know* that that amount is not enough to even feed a person properly. But to you it is just a joke.
Donald Trump has ordered a rollback of regulations over Wall
Street, including the Dodd-Frank Act, passed in 2010 to prevent another
too-big-to-fail banking crisis.
Perhaps Trump thinks that we’ve forgotten what happened when Wall
Street turned the economy into a giant casino, and then – when its bets went
sour in 2008 – needed a giant taxpayer funded bailout.
Maybe Trump thinks Americans forget losing their jobs, homes, and
savings in the fallout.
Many people who voted for Trump got shafted. I hope they haven’t
forgotten that while they suffered, not a single bank executive went to
jail.
Trump supporters need to join with
Democrats and progressives in stopping this rollback, and holding Trump accountable.
The
biggest banks are far bigger today than they were in 2008. Then, the five
largest had 25 percent of U.S. banking assets. Today they have 44 percent.
If
they were too big to fail then, they’re too big period now.
Getting rid of
Dodd-Frank triples the odds of another financial crisis.
Meanwhile, Trump has
brought more banksters into his administration than any in any previous
administration – mostly, from Goldman Sachs.
The head of Trump’s economic
council is Gary Cohn who was president of Goldman Sachs. Other Goldman alumni
include Trump’s right hand man, Steve Bannon, Trump’s pick for Treasury, Steve
Mnuchin, Trump’s pick for the securities and exchange commission, Jay Clayton
and another White House advisor, Dina Powell.
Now remember, a decade ago,
Goldman Sachs defrauded investors and ripped off its customers and it’s paid
nearly $9 billion in government fines.
Many of Trump’s banksters were
there at that time.
Don’t let Trump and the Republicans endanger our economy again. Let’s
not make the same mistake twice.
Cecil, I can tell you used this as an excuse to buy something YOU WANTED, instead of something WE NEEDED. Take it back. And don't think this little escapade is going to get you out of shopping for the house in the future.
At a 1915 auction, a millionaire named
Cecil Chubb bought Stonehenge as a gift
for his wife, but she hated it because she
had sent him to buy a set of dining chairs.
3 years later, he decided it belonged to
the English, so he gave it to his country
on the conditions that the entrance fee
would never cost more than a shilling and
the locals could always have free access. Source
“What the fuck, Cecil. Our dining table is only 30 inches high. How the hell are we supposed to sit on these. Cecil, did you save the receipt?”
“My dear, they are an extraordinary megalit-”
“BUT ARE THEY CHAIRS, CECIL. ARE THEY CHAIRS?”
Listen, I’m with her
“Mary, I bought you a priceless historical relic that is also a famous tourist attraction. This is the best gift ever.”
