Kale, Apple, Pear, Cucumber and Carrot. Yum. Where to get the best juicer (via the Wirecutter) and more on the juice craze over at The Hairpin. I would supply a photo of my liquid lunch but it’s a) gone and b) in an unattractive Green Mountain Coffee ecotainer cup. Oh, what the hell.

- His defense of anti-sodomy laws.
- His love of coal.
- His bizarre attack on single mothers—and equally bizarre end-times theory about Iran.
- The fact that Obamacare was designed to help families like his—whether he admits it or not.
