Would you believe Donald Trump supporter and captive Paul Ryan, who would like to defund everything but the military and erect in its stead a large gym for him to shoot fitness photographs inside of, could run into a female colleague of three years, discuss work with her, and have no clue who she was? Believe it or…

Harper’s Bazaar got the scoop of a lifetime when it landed an interview with Jason Kelly, the Democrat who’s doing all the stage make-up on speakers for the RNC. With the actual substance (or “substance”) of the event resembling the stinkiest pitfire in hell, it’s astonishing to learn how badly we needed to know how…

After weeks of hemming, hawing and scanning the room for the closest exits, House Speaker Paul Ryan has announced that he will vote for Donald Trump, an oversized wasp exoskeleton stuffed with old mustard. What a proud and exciting moment for us all.

Antonin Scalia, God rest his soul even though it was corroded like an old car battery, remains dead, and President Obama needs to pick a replacement on the Supreme Court.

As the biggest and most important news the nation has ever faced, Winter Blizzard 2016 is, obviously, being livestreamed on House Speaker Paul Ryan’s personal YouTube page, from the vantage point of the Speaker’s balcony. But more intriguing than the act of watching snow (not) fall gently into a haze of inclement…

Republican Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Paul Ryan recently grew a very short beard. Soon after that, he gently denounced Islamophobia. Hello, it’s pretty obvious that you can’t do those two things at the same time, Ry guy!

Welcome to Would U?, an academic forum in which I share my gross crush of the week and ask if you, too, would bang that person.

Vox and Sheryl Sandberg have both stepped forward to praise Paul Ryan for demanding his “family time” as a condition of running for Speaker of the House. His voting record alone should be enough to dispel the notion that he’s anything remotely like a friend to feminism. It seems frankly unfathomable that this even…

Paul Ryan is willing to run for Speaker of the House... under some conditions. For instance, a workplace that allows him quality time with his family, the kind of workplace he doesn’t support for the rest of America. The Daily Show’s Jessica Williams outlined some additional riders that he might attach to his…

In 1982, Van Halen created one of the greatest rock trivia facts of all time when they demanded in their tour rider that all brown M&M’s be removed from their dressing room munchies as a precondition for performing.
