Is this Montana right-winger suggesting he wants a crystal ball? Because that's sorcery, and followers of the Bible know that "Thou shalt not suffer a witch." (Exodus 2:18.) What that means, in modern translation, and as elaborated in Leviticus 20:27, is exactly this: Read more
My favorite MLS detail on Bay Area houses is "no one passed away in this house."
Hello Jerry! What's the coolest hybrid, first for rich people and then for regular people?
I found an unretouched picture of the dog, please send $100 to me at Gawker.
Gah! Well I'm glad your brain tumor isn't going to do anything but sit there and not grow. My dad died from an astrocytoma that grew very quickly, and he wasn't much older than we are today, so these stories make me nervous, Jesus. Read more
These Silicon Valley characters don't really need to be reminded that they're fictional gazillionaires ruling over a world of mere mortals, do they?
I think we can all agree that we should wipe out the rest of the bees first, and then move on to the next scourge on the American List, which is terrorism.
It's not an article, it's a timeline of other stories, which are links. But I get why it would be annoying to read if you're looking for a long text article. It's annoying for me to look at and I know just what it's supposed to be!
It is a "work in progress," as they say. But these particular Giant Story Posts are supposed to gather all the relevant stuff in a timeline—so the actual stories are the related bits.

As one of the actual, credited backup singers—"yellers" is more accurate—on Mojo Nixon's "Elvis Is Everywhere," I also approve this post.

I'm looking for a new mattress right now and am baffled/saddened by the million different kinds and the sound-alike promises. Is this whore mattress a good buy, generally speaking?
I am going to build the most perfect modernist desert hideaway with this set.
Hello Nate. Did NYT management show any concern for losing one of the few humans that under-40 readers have any respect for? Read more
Okay! Please call the Gawker office and give them your address. Just reference this "web page" on the Internet. Read more
Thanks for that! I've added the info to the post.
There are definitely similar black-and-white illustrations with the chapter headings. I haven't raided my kids' rooms for the Potter books (which used to belong to me), but after work I am going to pilfer them and check against these full-color pictures. The ones that illustrate the chapter headings are much more… Read more

That would make a gorgeous coffee table/storytime book.
