The last time i went looking for this feature, it wasn't available. Now i can improve my feed by vastly reducing chatter about the fash circus/Chaos agents.

And, frankly, too much talk about the other site -- we're free. Move on.

Man answering his phone on the train: Yes? Correct, I’m not at work (pause) I’m not going to answer that because I am not at work today. No, you’re going to have to ask someone who is. Goodbye.

USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

As we mourn Rob Reiner, don’t skip this: he was, pretty much, personally responsible for overturning California’s Prop 8 banning same sex marriage.

He's also responsible for raising all the money that paid for bringing Hollingsworth v. Perry & even more importantly Bostic v. Schaefer, which created the circuit split that forced SCOTUS to take on Obergefell v. Hodges. The role he played in American marriage equality cannot be overstated.
The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

All from his movies.

#WakeUpDeadMan is simply fantastic. O'Connor gives an amazing performance. Craig is delightful as always. Use of light in key moments (the storytelling monologue!) is so very effective. So much fun, with an added dose of gravity in this outing. I can't wait for the next Benoit Blanc mystery.
