    The Hill

    Hillary Clinton on Saturday night took a swipe at Fox News for its frequent criticism of her presidential campaign despite the fact that she lost to President Trump.

    “It does strike me that, in the last few days at least, Fox News seems to think that’s where I live, in the White House,” Clinton said at a dinner for the Human Rights Campaign held in Washington, D.C. “Because they spend a disproportionate amount of their time talking about impeaching me.”

    “So, look, if they want to make a trade, I’d be more than willing,” she joked. “I would have much preferred to have come to the dinner tonight from a slightly closer residence.”

    @Major Major Major Major: I should note “conservat-ish” is more along the eyes of “conservatism, with a twist:”

    • Epstein was an Obama-voting Reed College grad who only became conservative once True/Slant more firmly adopted a left-liberal ideological bent. Epstein’s posts were otherwise straightforward – if totally incoherent – Republican stuff, but his major twist written in that know-it-all voice where you could tell he meant not a goddamn word of what he said.
    • Brendan O’Neill’s twist is that though his posts are most identifiably conservative, he was for the longest time an employee of libertarian/”futurist” Sp!ked, successor of the nominally left British publication Living Marxism (shut down due to genocide denialist fraud). And it’s not even personally-held conservatism but “say the exact opposite of whatever’s popular FREEZE PEACH” – but he did condemn Trump while he was running, so there’s that.
    • Jack Shafer’s twist is that he’s libertarian, of course.

    The commonality between all these men is that their writing style is glib, shit-eating bad faith – and I’ve always considered that nihilism especially morally repugnant.

    @HeleninEire: Oh, so a total fucking mess, but ended up turning out all right. The service will send you two sizes of the same dress so you can choose which one fits better. So the dress was supposed to be delivered on Friday, and then it never showed up, and I called them and they tracked the package, and it was stuck at the FedEx depot about a mile from my house. The service called FedEx and arranged for it to be picked up directly. So Mr. Suzanne went and got it while I was getting my hair done. Got home, opened the package, and tried on the smaller size. It fit everywhere but was exceedingly tight in the boobs (I am disproportionately large in that area and am hoping to get a reduction, but that is a different discussion). So I went to try on the larger size…..only to find out that they had accidentally sent me a larger size of a different dress. And that different dress was horrible. Shapeless sack of shit with a dumb ruffle. And too big. So I ended up wearing the smaller size of the dress that I originally picked out, and Spawn the Elder came through….I had bought her a package of those pasty things for her homecoming dress, and there was an extra pair in there, so I was able to go without a bra. The night went well. Donated $100 to the hospital (our county safety net hospital, which cares for refugees and undocumented immigrants—and SuzMom, when SuzMom needed a three-day psychiatric hold). Saw lots of colleagues and friends. Didn’t spill on myself or stick my foot in my mouth. Pictures of the dress on Facebook. I am not doing a lot of deep breathing. Hah.

A few weeks after the customer selected a home and placed the order, two railway boxcars that contained about 30,000 pieces of house – everything from doorknobs and carved stairways, to varnish and shingles – would arrive at the nearest train depot. In Villa Park, the drop off was at the Great Western railroad siding near the former Ovaltine factory.

    @Suzanne: My daughter is jumping through hoops to get reduction surgery. She had to jump through hoops to get her tubes tied in her early thirties. She has no kids and doesn’t really want any. It still took years to convince the doctor to do it. She’s now trying for breast reduction and she’s had to go through tests, pt, etc. to get this far. She is an F cup and has at least 1 inch deep indents in her shoulders from the bra straps. She has to get the insurance to pay for it so it’s “hold up another hoop”.

  200. 200.

    @bmoak: Yet the deal only involved the Russian firm making money on uranium that had no export license, therefore could not be “sold to the Russians”.

    The whole thing is utter bullshit.
