Here's an idea: write an article about how Pence's favorite sexual position is missionary, extrapolating from his highly religious background. Use this as a segue into sexual repression of conservatives, and end it with a dose of SJW feminism.

I'm willing to bet Pence does it wilder and harder than Trump.

Tweets are the optimal source of news and best method of preserving history. Twitter is cool and good.

I didn't spend too much time thinking about the dinner thing, and I admit it is sort of fanciful to dwell on. Just another data point that the guy is a dick though.

Whoa, whoa. You don't have to be so crass.

**** it, let's interview someone and tweet that instead.

diner (restaurant?)

the Blue Room has been lit with nearly a dozen votive candles, the table is set with yellow roses, and the Washington Monument is neatly framed in the South window.

I'm sure Bill made sure things were properly swallowed.

edit: why was ranch in quotations

You're right, quotation marks are fun to use!

Barbara "Bush"

Well this story that hit HN today has a funny headline.

"Uber hit by major legal setback in Europe"

In the United States, apparently, brazen disregard for the law comes with no such "legal setbacks".

... another Picasso quote: "learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist". And not doing this is probably the greatest sin of Silicon Valley since the 80's. Nobody has bothered becoming a pro in software (in particular in user interface design). So when they break the rules, they break them like a dumb child does, by throwing rocks through windows.

Was the American Revolution such a good idea?
By Adam Gopnik
The Revolution is the last bulwark of national myth, but in sanctifying it we forget that it was more horrific than heroic.
The Revolution is the last bulwark of national myth, but in sanctifying it we forget that it was more horrific than heroic.

And what if it was a mistake from the start? The Declaration of Independence, the American Revolution, the creation of the United States of America—what if all this was a terrible idea, and what if the injustices and madness of American life since then have occurred not in spite of the virtues of the Founding Fathers but because of them? The Revolution, this argument might run, was a needless and brutal bit of slaveholders’ panic mixed with Enlightenment argle-bargle, producing a country that was always marked for violence and disruption and demagogy. Look north to Canada, or south to Australia, and you will see different possibilities of peaceful evolution away from Britain, toward sane and whole, more equitable and less sanguinary countries. No revolution, and slavery might have ended, as it did elsewhere in the British Empire, more peacefully and sooner. No “peculiar institution,” no hideous Civil War and appalling aftermath. Instead, an orderly development of the interior—less violent, and less inclined to celebrate the desperado over the peaceful peasant. We could have ended with a social-democratic commonwealth that stretched from north to south, a near-continent-wide Canada.

Is there a Spicr clone of Tumblr yet?

I'm not sure what that would be, but it sounds horrible.
