It’s a good thing my boss loves me because ... one day this week, I brought my lunch from home, and as I was eating he looked at it and said:
“What’s that?”
"It’s a Black Bean, Corn, Tomato, Avocado salad."
“What’s in it?”
“Black Beans. Corn. Tomato. Avocado.”
“Smartass,” he said.
“Dumbass,” I replied.
Like I said, it’s good that I’m good at my job.

In a case of him being about the most ignorant man on the planet, this week President-For-Now _____ attacked The Washington Post and its owner, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, for its coverage of him and his administration as, wait for it, because it’s new and newsworthy .... #FakeNews.
The fake news story that has that dead muskrat on his head itching his scalp? The story about how he has framed copies of a fake issue of Time magazine with his picture on it at several of his properties.
Yup, he called a news story about how he made a fake issue of a magazine a fake news story. Fake + Fake = Truth. Dipshit, as my Dad would say.

Well, isn’t this special? The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that Mississippi can begin enforcing a law to allow merchants and government employees who cite religious beliefs as an excuse to deny services to same-sex couples.
Cuz, you know, God hates fags.
Here's where it might get ugly, though, because how do you know when someone is being a bigot because of the Baby Jeebus and when they’re being a bigot because they are hate-filled human beings?
Asking for a friend.

A friend of Carlos’ has a cat that was making some weird noises and so she took him to the vet and spent a great deal of money on tests after test to find out what was wrong.
Turns out the cat sneezes in rather than out.
Carlos made some snide remark about a waste of money to find out your cat sneezes inward, and I looked at him sideways and said:
“Yeah, that’s kinda like spending $20,000 for a day-and-a-half in the hospital because you hurt yourself throwing a bag of leaves in the back of a truck.”
Yes, that was snark to my Poor Baby Carlito.

One morning this week, watching the news whilst having breakfast, I caught sight of the amazing shot that Jordan Spieth made from a sand trap.
“Oh my god,” I said to Carlos. “That’s amazing!”
Carlos watched the replay and said, “Wow, what an incredible shot.”
And I said:
“What shot? Look at his ass in those jeans!”
Priorities, people. And whoever knew golf could be hot?

Fox news political commentator Chadwick Moore—an openly self-loathing homosexual and former liberal who is now drinking the Kool-Aid— was on the “news” show to discuss a vigil that took place at Stonewall Inn to remember the 49 innocent people that were brutally murdered in the Pulse massacre last year.
The event was organized by Gays Against Guns, and was also used as a way of protesting against out-dated gun laws that continue to allow dangerous individuals to purchase guns without proper background checks. And, when asked what he thought about the anti-_____ nature of the event, Moore said:
“Most gay people aren’t political. Most gay people, you know, they care about pop music and going to the beach. They probably don’t know what the Second Amendment is. And so they show up to be together, to celebrate the community, to mourn together and instead they are fed this anti-gun nonsense.”
Oh, you stupid man, we have been politically active for fifty years working against ignorant bigots like yourself and will continue to do so, while we dance and go to the beach and catch a Broadway show because we’re here, we’re queer and we can multi-task the fuck out of wingnuts like you.

Jason Chaffetz, the Congressman from Utah, is set to reign in a few days, but before he goes, he is suggesting that We The People pay members of Congress a $2,500 per month housing allowance:
“I really do believe Congress would be much better served if there was a housing allowance for members of Congress. In today’s climate, nobody’s going to suggest or vote for a pay raise. But you shouldn’t have to be among the wealthiest of Americans to serve properly in Congress ... and I flat-out cannot afford a mortgage in Utah, kids in college and a second place here in Washington, D.C. I think a $2,500 housing allowance would be appropriate and a real help to have at least a decent quality of life in Washington if you’re going to expect people to spend hundreds of nights a year here.”
As a member of Congress Jason Chaffetz makes $174,000 a year for roughly 131 days of work, or about $1300 a day; his net worth, and he’s one of the least wealthy members of Congress, is over $2 million.
And yet he wants you to pay his rent. And if he doesn’t stay in DC, and opts to fly home every weekend, We The People pay for his airline ticket.
A $2,500 monthly allowance would cost We The People $30,000 a year per lawmaker, or roughly $16 million a year for all 535 members.
Bitch, please.
