Florida woman scratches crude image onto... →
derasso:
Armed with a key, Natasha Myers scratched a rendering of male genitalia onto the hood of the silver Kia. She then went to the customer service desk inside the supermarket and asked for a Post-it note. Security cameras captured her writing something on the paper and then returning to the parking lot.
Myers left the following note on the windshield:
“Hey I keyed your car. You didn’t...
“PBS has become more and more dependent on viewers nothing like you.”
– The Colbert Report’s STEPHEN COLBERT, on reports that PBS killed a documentary critical of one of the gazillionaire Koch brothers — a major public broadcasting supporter.
Ugh.

Can we get Big Bird and Elmo to talk the other guys into maybe staging an intervention for PBS’s Koch...
Alex Jones is a super-genius.
Jones said that the smoking gun of government involvement would be if a helicopter or aircraft was spotted “in and around the clouds, spraying and doing things.” He continued, “if you saw that, you better bet your bottom dollar they did this, but who knows if they did. You know, that’s the thing, we don’t know.”
Helicopters, in...
Good morning, fellow digital tasteleaders.
So when do we migrate to a cooler, edgier platform?
My dash is filled with Brents. It’s weird.
Should you want a (non-Googa) burger tomorrow afternoon, I’m grilling them in the backyard of Sycamore in Ditmas Park.
Voices of the down-trodden.
“In America, the government is supposed to protect freedom, not use its intolerance for certain viewpoints to intimidate citizens into acting contrary to their faith convictions,” said Alliance Senior Legal Counsel Dale Schowengerdt. “Family business owners are constitutionally guaranteed the freedom to live and work according to their beliefs. It is this very freedom...
So after reading this look into the relationship between BuzzFeed and Charles Koch, it’s kind of hard to swallow the, “Hello, Buzzfeed? Charles Who? Oh, whatever, as long as you got the cash!” hypothesis. More like, “How could it be a conflict if I don’t feel conflicted?”

Not Hot Enough for Breitbart →
kohenari:
Boy genius Ben Shapiro takes to Breitbart.com to complain that Maxim’s list of hot women includes two women that he doesn’t think are very hot. One of them — Hoda Kotb — is old, for crying out loud! The only reason women like Kotb would find herself on the list is that she’s a liberal and, of course, Maxim is well-known for only celebrating the hotness of liberals; it’s one of the...
So this would be kinda like the Rapture. Not that any planes are gonna fall out of the sky because the pilot believes in the Spooky Ghost Man or anything, but definitely simultaneous, on a global level. Like, BOOM, and then everyone everywhere will be like, Whuh?
The thing that will happen, instantly, is that every person on the globe, here, Europe, China, Africa, the Space Station, every single...
THE CHISELER: IT'S AN OLD, OLD, OLD, OLD WORLD →
chiseler:
In 1963, It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World was made for $9 million and brought in over $60 million. Today the epic three-hour comedy is remembered not so much for being a great film (it wasn’t) or even for being particularly funny (it wasn’t that either), but simply for gathering together the…

The Supreme Court joins the ranks of the “useful idiots” supporting U.S. corporations’ privilege to enrich themselves at any cost, even the cost of society’s basic rights of possession and knowledge.
You get no link. Look it up.
Okay, so the week’s off to a start.
There do not seem to be too many families celebrating Mother’s Day in this specific Pantera.

Sob Story Guys! (And Gals!)
(Via Bittertwee.)
I hit the Exacta on the B train this morning: start with one dude, ranting in a loud, non-stop conversational voice, looking at no one, for the entirety of the trip (40 min.), and then add a Bible thumper who bellowed her testimony for about seven minutes and then went back to staring into space.
You’d think that they’d cancel each other out, but that was not the case.

Oh, cool, the Internet is blowing up over a piece of shitty, racist, sexist trash sci-fi written by a dude who spends a lot of money fighting marriage equality.
“As usual,” you mean.
Miss. Supreme Court blocks Tuesday execution →
derasso:
The Mississippi Supreme Court has indefinitely delayed Tuesday evening’s planned execution of Willie Jerome Manning, who was scheduled to die for the 1992 slayings of two college students.
Manning was originally scheduled to receive a lethal injection at 6 p.m. CDT at the state prison in Parchman. But as the execution time loomed, the high court said the execution should be delayed...
