Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Perhaps I should have considered other options.” (head-desk)

They think we are photo bombing their nice little lives.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

If you still can’t see these things even now, maybe politics isn’t your forte and you should stop writing about it.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

Find someone who loves you the way trump and maga love traitors.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

Anne Laurie is a fucking hero in so many ways. ~ Betty Cracker

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

Finding joy where we can, and muddling through where we can’t.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

Two more reasons to like Ted Williams

From the June 15th Sports Illustrated, describing Williams at training camp in 1979:

He would show up every morning in his old Ford station wagon, identifiable only by the IF GUNS ARE OUTLAWED, ONLY OUTLAWS WILL HAVE GUNS sticker on the rusty bumper.”

and

I stood with other members of the new generation of the Knights of the Keyboard, William’s term for his longtime adversaries in the press box

Thanks again, Ted.
