Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty. ~Thomas Jefferson

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

Every decision we make has lots of baggage with it, known or unknown.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

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

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Jack Smith: “Why did you start campaigning in the middle of my investigation?!”

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

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

This chaos was totally avoidable.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

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

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

He really is that stupid.

Every one of the “Roberts Six” lied to get on the court.

The republican speaker is a slippery little devil.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

    On a related note, scandal rocks Oral Roberts University

    Richard Roberts is accused of illegal involvement in a local political campaign and lavish spending at donors’ expense, including numerous home remodeling projects, use of the university jet for his daughter’s senior trip to the Bahamas, and a red Mercedes convertible and a Lexus SUV for his wife, Lindsay.

    She is accused of dropping tens of thousands of dollars on clothes, awarding nonacademic scholarships to friends of her children and sending scores of text messages on university-issued cell phones to people described in the lawsuit as “underage males.”

    Now you know if Richard Roberts were the one texting underage males we’d have some explanation of how he had “wide fingers” or something and accidentally sent lurid texts to those college kids :-)

    I can get my appendix removed, but medicine seems to offer no remedy for the existence of Hugh Hewitt.

    Well, the appendix must not be an important source of gut bacteria, or else the millions of people who’ve had theirs removed would have problems with digestion.

    Did you read the article in detail Casey? They said that in today’s dense populations, people easily pick up the bacteria from other people, even if they have no appendix.

    But in olden times, or in some more remote/less industrialized places, appendicitis was/is much less common, because people’s appendixes were in use much more.

    At this point it’s a theory, and a credible one, but doesn’t have enough support to be fully accepted. But glad someone in science is looking into stuff like this. You never know what it will turn into.

    Like the study of yeast (basic cells) helping Dr. Lee Hartwell understand/explain how cell division occurs (and winning him a Nobel Prize in the process). May sound simple, but understand cell division is one of the keys to unlocking cancer (abnormal cell division).

    If the appendix exists for a reason, there’s hope yet for we can no longer compare one to Hugh Hewitt.

    Fixed.

    What other useless piece of flesh can we substitute now?
