For Your (Weekend) Consideration

The Koch Brothers plan to spend almost $900 million on the 2016 elections.  Remind me again how we live in a democracy and this is just them exercising their right to free speech? Ok, cool.

Awesome Sundance panel featuring Mindy Kaling, Lena Dunham, Jenji Kohan, and Kristen Wiig.  Long watch, but really smart, funny, and insightful.

Ever wonder what your signature cocktail should be?  Of course not, that's a ridiculous question.  But it's still fun!

Tim Ryan, Ohio Congressman, has changed his stance on abortion.  I want to give him credit, but it's frustrating that it took him his entire life to learn to listen to women (you know, the people who actually get abortions).

Is prep going the way of the dodo?

By now, you may have heard about Colleen McCullough's obituary, which described her as "plain of feature, and certainly overweight".  She was Australia's best-selling author and yet she is described in terms of her looks and body, rather than her accolades.  As shitty as that is, it did give us these male authors' obituaries given the same treatment.  Roald Dahl is my favorite.

Who was The Locker Room Guy who deflated the Patriots' footballs?  These dudes.

We all know that the most important part of the Super Bowl is the food.  Here are some recipes to inspire you.

And finally, because it's Friday and we should all be listening to Uptown Funk anyway, here's an awesome high school teacher killing it with his dance moves.
