Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

You can’t love your country only when you win.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

People are complicated. Love is not.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

He really is that stupid.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

It’s the corruption, stupid.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

Let’s finish the job.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

I really should read my own blog.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

A certain episode in the middle of season #5 titled the Body was one of the most traumatic hours of television I have watched- as well as one of the most realistic portrayals of- well, I don’t want to ruin it for those who have not seen it.

What a great show this BTVS is…

    It was pretty good, wasn’t it? Strange how that totally outlandish show and its spinoff managed to work simultaneously as intelligent comedy and intelligent drama — I find I still miss the Buffyverse. (And — while admittedly I didn’t start really watching either show until late in Season 4 — I still think that Season 5 was probbly the best of the lot.)

    To celebrate the occasion that Erik and I have watched the complete series of Buffy the Vampire Slayer on DVD I have decided to list my Top 10 15 episodes of all time (hey, I tried to keep the list to 10 … you’re lucky I kept it under 20!).

    Can I ask you why you think Russ and I went through all the time and energy put a button up so you could hyperlink comments and you chose instead to bullet it?

    Just curious.

    Nice top 10 list, Stormy70. My wife and I got the complete Buffy as a wedding present and I’m looking forward to watching the whole incredible sequence again with her.

    The Body is one of the greatest hours of TV period. There are many of these throughout the seven seasons. BTVS is better the second and third time you go through the series. I have no life. lol
    Make sure you check out the special freatures section. Joss explains the making of the episode. I usually don’t waste my time listening to the audio commenaries while an episode is playing because you get a lot of ” I loved working with you” and ” You too” but listening to Joss piece this episode and the brilliant “Hush” together further explains his genius.
    ps- the added features in the comments section is a great idea.
