It’s always been this way, somewhat. The onion predicted the rise of Trump way back in 2012 with "After Obama Victory, Shrieking White-Hot Sphere Of Pure Rage Early GOP Front-Runner For 2016” (apologies for the HuffPost link, the onion just revamped their website and this article now gives a 404 error).

Sources say the screaming orb might be the only potential candidate that would tap into Republicans’ deep-seated, seething fury after this election.

And of course when Bush was inaugurated they predicted his increase in the national deficit and starting wars in the Middle East with Bush: ‘Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over’

Exactly! It’s been endlessly frustrating to see Clinton criticized for being inauthentic in the 2016 campaign, given the criticism she faced earlier in her career for not sufficiently playing the role of “spouse”.

During a debate before the Michigan and Illinois primaries, Bill was accused by a rival of delivering favorable contracts to his wife’s law firm during his tenure as governor of Arkansas, TIME reported. The comment rattled Hillary, resulting in her making a comment that provoked immediate backlash: “I suppose I could have stayed home, baked cookies and had teas,” she said, speaking of “the sort of thing that happens to women who have their own careers.”

Her comments outraged many American women into a fit of rage, as evidenced by theLetters section in the April 20, 1992, edition of TIME:

The response to her comment had plenty of ingredients and flavor but not much sweetness. For instance, there is the reaction of disaffected voter June Connerton of Princeton, N.J.: ‘’If I ever entertained the idea of voting for Bill Clinton, the smug bitchiness of his wife’s comment has nipped that notion in the bud.’’ Then add the annoyance of homemakers like Cindy Berg of La Crosse, Wis.: ‘’I resent the implication that those of us who stay at home just bake cookies. We hardly have the time!’’

She wound up having to participate in a cookie bake-off with Barbra Bush to smooth over her comment.

Fortunately she could just order his assassination, call it an official act (“he was obstructing the confirmation of my vice president”), and get off scot-free.

Yes I realize this would never work because

1. Harris would never do that, and democrats would never allow it, and
2. the Supreme Court would immediately rule this is not an official act for “reasons”.

The yield is small enough that it isn’t a threat to the soldiers launching it. Still, I wouldn’t want to be the one tasked with firing it.

That’s too straightforward - this is google after all.

There’ll be a new product that integrates this feature and they’ll call it Google Slides, while rebranding the old “Slides” as Google Presentations. Then in a few years they’ll kill off the new Google Slides, leaving only Google Presentations and tons of confused users.

“But actually, it’s not the worst idea I’ve ever had,” he continued.

Yeah I believe that.

I’ll only be a carnivore on day 1

I am not reading your comment, I am simply traveling through it with my eyeballs. Also your comment doesn’t have gold fringe and therefore lacks jurisdiction.

Idk, it takes some real courage to stand between a parent and their dying kid.

The whole story is wild, and terrible.

He rang the doorbell shortly before 10 p.m. and waited for someone to respond, Merritt said.

“Whoever was inside took a little longer than he anticipated to respond, and so he just waited at the door,” Merritt said, citing a statement Yarl gave to law enforcement investigators from his hospital bed Friday.

“He heard rustling around going on in the house and then finally the door was open,” the attorney said. “And he was confronted by a man who told him, ‘Don’t come back around here,’ and then he immediately fired his weapon.”

Yarl was shot in the head, which cracked his skull and left him with a critical, traumatic brain injury, the attorney said. While the teenager was still on the ground, the homeowner opened fire a second time, striking Yarl in the upper right arm, Merritt said.

And then

Merritt said the teenager saved his own life by fleeing and banging on at least three neighbors’ doors for help.

At the third home, Merritt said, the neighbor told Yarl to lie on the ground and put his hands in the air. He complied and then passed out, the attorney said.

It’s already been published. But it’s superconducting at 10 K. This is a new high temperature record, but pretty far from room temperature.

They’ve been doing studies of what would be required for ignition for a while, but have never demonstrated ignition using the Z machine.

If they did have ignition, there’s no way they would’ve let LLNL claim to be first and enjoy all the media attention.

Nah, the Z machine never achieved ignition. That doesn’t mean it’s not a really cool facility though!

Hey now.

He’s a pompous, self-righteous felonious piece of shit.

The Onion has been going hard on Kissinger, deservedly so.

Americans React To The Death Of Henry Kissinger

“He put Cambodia on the map and almost took it off.”

Seriously, he’s done so much good. There’s a nonzero chance that the only thing keeping him alive is his desire to do more to help. For example, Carter has said that he wants to witness the eradication of the Guinea worm,a parasite that he’s been working on stopping for decades.

“I would like to see Guinea worm completely eradicated before I die,” Carter said at a press conference in 2015. “I’d like for the last Guinea worm to die before I do. I think right now we have 11 cases. We started out with 3.6 million cases.”
