By no means is Anthony Bourdain known for his sweet, loving nature. The chef and television host, currently on CNN’s Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown, has built a career on his searing comments and tendency toward machismo. But Bourdain revealed a softer side in a recent interview with IndieWire. In reacting to his girlfriend Asia Argento’s stunning speech at Cannes in May, Bourdain recalled how proud he was: “From the second she said she’d been invited to present an award, I knew it would be a nuclear bomb. I was so proud of her. It was absolutely fearless to walk right into the lion’s den and say what she said, the way she said it. It was an incredibly powerful moment, I thought. I am honored to know someone who has the strength and fearlessness to do something like that.”
(In case you forgot, while presenting the best actress prize at the Cannes Film Festival, Argento made a scalding speech about Harvey Weinstein, which you can read here.)
Later in the interview, Bourdain reflected on his relationship with Argento. “She listens to my advice and frequently if not most of the time, rejects it,” he said. “That is something that Asia cannot help but do. She is brutally honest about herself and anything, and it’s a great quality.”

Maybe not...Or maybe he travels the world for a different, secret reason. Who really knows? He's a CNN guy, after all...
Or maybe Clintons got their hands on him. It's all just so weird.

Wow! Another suicide!

We certainly seem to be hitting a "suicide weekend." I wonder if many of these people were connected to pedo/child trafficking rings, and they either killed themselves before they were outed, or others killed them to try to bury their connections.

Serious question - how can it be that Q would know these people would take the easy/cowardly way out? Because of the overwhelming evidence against them? How can you predict what someone's reaction would be to getting caught? Just wondering the psychology behind this. If Bourdain was a kiddy diddler then good riddance.

I'm all but certain that was the case with Bordain.

He was even more and worse than that I think, if such a thing could be possible. He liked his "hot dogs" with "ketchup" on them. I think he was a serial killer and was into torture, rape, and murder.

Would you believe "we've" been here before and it is just repeating for a different outcome ?
Argento was one of the first women to come forward with allegations of rape. “I am proud and honored to know you,” Bourdain tweeted to Argento in October. “You just did the hardest thing in the world.” He added: “Can we use the word ‘rapist’ now? #Weinstein.”
Bourdain called out other celebrities who remained silent about Weinstein’s alleged behavior. “How many seventeen year olds have you dressed like they are, in your words, ‘asking for it’?” he tweeted at Donna Karan’s fashion brand DKNY.
He said to Matt Damon: “Looking forward to ‘THE BOURNE APOLOGY’ in which Jason fights off attempts to expose a pimp.”

Here's a gif of Trump and Pence water bottle code.
It's obviously staged. Who would move their water from the table to the floor, much less on cue at the same time.
Watch the Water.
And here they had us thinking its to do with Maxine Waters, Hawaiian Waters and whatnot. Well, maybe it is. Its nice to have a playful President (especially considering the very serious results being delivered).
