Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

I’d try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

Be a traveling stable for those who can’t find room at the inn.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

Pessimism assures that nothing of any importance will change.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

It’s easier to kill a dangerous animal than a man who just happens to have different thoughts/values than one’s own.

Chutkan laughs. Lauro sits back down.

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

The new republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

“That’s what the insurrection act is for!”

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

Republicans can’t even be trusted with their own money.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Spilling the end game before they can coat it in frankl luntz-approved dogwhistles.

Too often we confuse noise with substance. too often we confuse setbacks with defeat.

We need to vote them all out and restore sane Democratic government.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Maybe you would prefer that we take Joelle’s side in ALL CAPS?

Massacre at Hundred Acre

Tigger- dead.

Piglet- dead.

Pooh- Scared to death and in mourning:

‘Twas a sad weekend in Hundred Acre Wood.

Paul Winchell, the early TV pioneer best remembered for creating a string of cartoon voices, most famously Winnie the Pooh’s pal Tigger, died Friday. A day later, John Fiedler, the veteran stage and screen actor who voiced Piglet, passed away.

Somewhere Eeyore is even more glum than usual.

Winchell and Fiedler gave voice to the beloved characters in several animated Disney shorts and features, beginning with 1968’s Oscar-winning, franchise-launching short, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day, which also featured the vocal work of Sebastian Cabot as the narrator and Sterling Holloway as the honey-obsessed bear. (Cabot died in 1977; Holloway in 1992.)

Sad.

    What a shame. I grew up with Pooh and my daughter has a collection of the kids videos that starred Winchell as Tigger.

    They will be missed.

    Morning reads.

    First up – go right to Lt Prakash at ArmorGeddon and spend just under 8 minutes of your day watching SPC Roby blow up an IED. While you are there, show me the tired, dispirited, low morale soldiers I read…
