The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

great, they’re already breaking the first rule
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

They probably only have so much to choose from, but man, I'm imagining buying the Let it Be reissue on vinyl excited about the live show and then getting this particular recording. Woof. Muffled and distant.

I’ve only seen 43 of Variety’s top 100 comedies and I know I’ve enjoyed at least 100 comedies so that list is crazy.
Also, for what it’s worth, I don’t think stand up specials should count.

A reminder this Thanksgiving about the time in a Gawker chat with Anthony Bourdain that I asked him "What was the best way to stick your dick in the mashed potatoes?" & he answered w "I like to come at the potatoes with the whole three piece unit at the same time. Kind of drop them in all together."

I'm hoping the War on Thanksgiving Food doesn't make it over here from Twitter. Maybe it already did. But I think Thanksgiving food is wonderful and am fine with not rehashing that whole thing.

Uncomfortable that it feels like Virginia is taking a lot of threes -- 43.6/100 -- and it's not even a top-100 three-point rate nationally.
