Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“But what about the lurkers?”

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

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

A dilettante blog from the great progressive state of West Virginia.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

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

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

Everybody saw this coming.

The revolution will be supervised.

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

I did not have telepathic declassification on my 2022 bingo card.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

Koufax Awards

I should probably point out that they are now taking nominations for the Koufax awards for lefty bloggers. Since a lot of you lefties reside here, I figure you might be interested.

And for the love of everything holy, do not nominate this website. I am not a lefty, and if we did get nominated, we would get laughed that, and barring being merely laughed out of the place, we would come in even farther behind than we did with out miserable showing in the weblogawards.

    Hey John,

    I wouldn’t consider 10th out of the top 250th to be miserable! Just like you to short-change yourself! :)

    No shame in losing at the weblog awards–it appears to be mostly liberals and really deranged conservatives voting. (Tom McGuire finishing behind Ace, LaShawn, and the Anti-Idiotarian Wingnut? Phooey)

    And for the love of everything holy, do not nominate this website.

    You know, with this crowd you just set yourself up by saying that.
    In fact, the thought of nominating Balloon Juice wouldn’t have even occurred to me until you mentioned it. I’m not going to do so, I’m just sayin’…

    You were in the wrong category…if this isn’t a conservative blog, I don’t know what is.

    –i hate to break it to you jane but the way most ‘conservatives’ define themselves these days, this ISN’T a conservative blog.

    I voted for this site for best conservative blog before I voted for it for best liberal blog.

    Damn…I hate those John Kerry moments.

    Dunkin Donuts? PLEASE! You need to hit the Krispy Kreme when the hot donut sign is flashing.

    Those things are crap. Yeasty, mushy.

    A real donut has character.

    I’m with PpGaz – Krispy Kreme donuts suck. They’re all sugar. I bought a box of ’em last year for my co-workers, and I ate two. I swear I had a sugar headache for hours.

    Speaking of headaches, where’s my damned booze blogging? It’s Feierabend here on the West Coast and I’m about to mix a martini.

    By the time I’m through shaking it, there had better be a booze post up or I swear, I’m not going to nominate this blog for anything. Ever.

    Judas H. Priest, no damned booze post. My martini is half-gone, the gin is warming my throat, I’m all ready to wax rhapsodic about lambic and kellerbier and Hitachino Nest, and what do I see? Jack squat.

    Mark my words: I will never, ever, nominate this blog for a lefty award. Ever.

    Since Sandy Koufax is a religous man, refusing to pitch on Yom Kippur, I assume that religion is an important part of the award?
