Only once

if only al franken hadn't been a sex pest. just imagine the power of him on a ticket with jill stein.

Rich people, especially rich people in the media & entertainment industries right this moment:

The point of having fuck you money is saying “fuck you” when it counts.

I was ready to get into IBUs and grain bills and then I read the thread. Anyway, it’s time to make a red ale again.

Fun fact: Texas is a one party consent state when it comes to recording conversations, which means that you can legally record any conversation of which you are a part — and can share it with a journalist, such as me
