If the poll doesn't result in "Jeffrey" and "Epstein McEpsteinFace" then the internet has failed.
Polling is open to help name two turkeys who will be pardoned by President Donald Trump ahead of Thanksgiving, and you can help choose.
You can choose the names of turkeys to get a presidential pardon. Here's how.

This is the funniest piece imaginable in the dull world of the otherwise sickly sycophantic tech review.
For real. Read it, even if you don’t give a rat’s ass about printers.

I am fourteen going on fifteen
Innocent as a rose
Pedophile pesters, creepy molesters
What do I know of those?
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of shame
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things that aren’t my blame
I had a creep, older, not wiser
'Cause Megyn Kelly said I'm fair game

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

The important thing is not whether the Trump performing sexual favors for Bill Clinton thing is true. The important thing is that we all pretend it’s true, and that someone asks Trump about it every day.

This is how I sound when my D&D players ask about an area I didn't write any lore about ...
Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

The inflatable costume thing with the protesters is really good because it renders the body armor/CoD weaponry aesthetic of the ICE Nazis even more ridiculous than it already was. Suiting up like Rambo to face down a dancing frog. No coming back from that

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.
But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

There are lots of people concerned about Ed Markey's age who wanted him to get primaried. Yet the universal reaction this morning to Seth Moulton running seems to be, "Yeah, I'll stick with Markey."
That's how much Moulton sucks.

If you think Trump cares about peace
more than Trump cares about Trump;
wait for his reaction
when someone else wins the Nobel Prize.
