Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Let me file that under fuck it.

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

“A king is only a king if we bow down.” – Rev. William Barber

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

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

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

This is dead girl, live boy, a goat, two wetsuits and a dildo territory.  oh, and pink furry handcuffs.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

Republicans cannot even be trusted with their own money.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

When they say they are pro-life, they do not mean yours.

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

How stupid are these people?

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

It’s the corruption, stupid.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

The willow is too close to the house.

Their shamelessness is their super power.

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

Kaddish, for a Monday Night Ravens Game

Prepare the first paper cup of Yuengling.

The first question:

Why is this game unlike other games?

Answer: On this game, unlike all other games, the Steelers have the opportunity to humiliate the Ravens, the true successor to the hated Cleveland Browns, before an appreciative home crowd.

Second question:

Why on this night, unlike all other nights, do we root for a total and humiliating rout, when on other nights a dignified victory will suffice?

Answer: Because the Ravens are a bunch of undisciplined criminals who can’t go five plays without some sort of foul. And because the Cowboys aren’t in our division.

Drink the first Yuengling and sing the superbowl song.

***

Off to enjoy the game. I would be getting pissed out of my skull enjoying the pre-game atmosphere but I had to teach.

    I’ve lurked here forever and Tim, you’ve brought out my first post to sing the praises of Yuengling. Maybe I hold some special reverence for this fine brew because it was the beer of my collegiate formulative drinking years, but for $5/6-pack it just dosen’t get any better. I welcome all challengers.

    Yuengling and Ravens hating. Two of my favorite pastimes.
