  • I will totally cook dinner for everyone.
  • Getting married is pretty annotatable. There’s a lot to it! This video may be my favorite part. It’s two of my closest friends singing a song we all used to sing together a lot freshman year when we were first getting close. Sadly this video start after the speaker who introduced them — you guys might know him.
  • Your toaster. Toast in the middle of the night is great and your dogs will come hang out with you.
    • I would prefer not to.

    In which all things are continuous,
    And are parts of the original dream which
    I am now trying to discover the logic of. This
    Is the process whereby pain of the past in its pastness
    May be converted into the future tense
    Of joy.”

AWE! I’ve only been to one wedding in my life, where I played a very uninspired ring bearer. 6/18 holds a lot of significance in my life – great things always seem to happen on that date for me.

Most Americans with a limited knowledge of grime associate it with the raucous beats and raucous vocals laid over those beats, but there’s true poetic quality to these lyrics, too. The multiple internal rhymes in these few lines – “ice cream / Seen?” and “correctly / upset me / get me?” – turn a normal hip-hop lyrical trope into something more.

The line ‘soft just like Ice cream’ is a reference to the song “Ice cream sound” by reggae legend Johnny Osbourne. “I don’t want no Ice cream sound it is too soft for me”.
Also referenced by Junior Gong on the Nas/Damian Marley song “Nah Mean”

Strangely, a hypothermic flow still scientifically adds up to it being hot. One experiences hypothermia when their body loses heat faster than they can produce it, so when he’s spitting, he’s exhaling the flames quicker than his body ever replenishes it.

...ys ago, and his aversion to establishment political tactics means either his campaign or his principles will have to go. But this isn’t, or shouldn’t be, why Jim Webb is exploring a Presidential run. Like Paul Ryan on the right and maybe secretly Elizabeth Warren on the left, throwing his name into these circles means the nation, and most importantly his fellow partisans, hear his views and account for them. Jim Webb: Hawk-Blocker – The 2016 Blog

High-profile policy architects should be added to every serious campaign’s arsenal. Much like the actors getting more credit than the writers in entertainment, it is those behind the scenes who truly shape most politicians' views. To have a notable big name behind a run would give voters a well-rounded ballot, rather than guessing what each candidate will produce when in office.

...t. Speaking at the third-best two-syllable acronym (behind IHOP and Gchat), Indiana Governor Mike Pence speculated that “2016 could actually be the first foreign policy national election since 1980.” For Republicans, this evokes the holiest of images: Ronald Reagan flying in on a bald eagle to save the United States from everyone, including themselves. For Democrats, little true worry should exist. On their side presumably reigns Hillary Clinton, whose Secretary of State tenure runs as a catch-all in foreign policy, executive branch, and temporal e... Jim Webb: Hawk-Blocker – The 2016 Blog

Was I actually surprised that images of this existed? Should I have been?

Shiny and slow. A friend of mine uses the word “shiny” to indicate something she really likes. Politics always likes a good distraction.

...ree world and the arsenal of democracy,” Pence said.

“The time has come to dramatically confront defense spending so we’re able to confront the knowable and unknowable threats we face,” he continued.

Foreign policy has been a dominant theme at CPAC, with many of the potential presidential candidates arguing that the U.S. must assert its force abroad. A slew of potential presidential candidates demanded a more hawkish global approach at the conservative gathering. Pence: 2016 will be foreign policy election | TheHill

This closing is too redundant and fails to acknowledge how gatherings like CPAC pull parties to their extremes. Though no Republican candidate will openly support non-interventionism, their proposed platforms often resemble the Democrats' more than both sides would like to admit. Per The Diplomatic Courier on Romney’s 2012 platform,

The draft Republican platform, when scrutinized, seems to confirm the idea that Romney’s foreign policy ideas are either undeveloped or not much different from Obama’s.

This type of moderate approach is what becomes of the chosen candidate, though party-centric conferences often posture otherwise.
