We won’t go back.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Today’s gop: why go just far enough when too far is right there?

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

I have other things to bitch about but those will have to wait.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

    Frank Newport of Gallup just said Obama’s lead over Mccain in their daily tracking poll will rise today to 8, count em, eight points.

    Bring back the comment borders!

    Seriously, I find the comments section much more readable with the borders than the new borderless look.

    Ah, so this is the result of the new server. I liked the comment borders too, but if I have to choose between comment borders and an actual, functioning blog…well, that’s a pretty easy choice.

    I was glad David Edelstein highlighted his great performances in Hud and the Hustler, which often get forgotten because movies like Cool Hand Luke or the Sting appeal to more people. I hope I can find Rachel, Rachel on DVD. Don’t remember ever seeing it.

    Comments without Borders strikes me a just the answer to the unbounded balloon juice that one here finds.

    I like the new design (this is part of what the $800 bought, right?). Are there going to be any other visible changes? I’m not absolutely sure if I want borders or not, because the numbers and our currently-default avis do delineate the difference between comments pretty well. (Hey, does this mean we get to register and upload avis? That would be cool.)

    Server performance seems pretty snappy, so hopefully that will continue.

    Oh shit! The html helper is gone. Well, I remember how to blockquote and italicize, but I guess that’s the end of embedding links for me!

    And how do we put pictures in those little icons?

    Yay, the text-size buttons at the right still work! The blogrolls appear to be AWOL, but I guess that’s being worked on.

    Krista, I didn’t even notice the toolbar’s disappearance. Here’s some neat W3Schools tutorial links for those going through withdrawal.

    Formatting text (bold/strong, italic/em, etc.)

    Links

    Blockquotes are easy: surround text with [blockquote] and [/blockquote], but change the [ to < and ] to >

    Eek! No preview yet. Flying blind as I hit submit …

    THE TOOLBAR IS BACK!! AND IT’S ON STEROIDS!! Jesus, John, do you really want us inserting tables?

    Krista, I didn’t even notice the toolbar’s disappearance

    It appeared for a second, then disappeared just as fast on my computer. Likely just some bugs that need time to work out.

    FYI: up to two links is still fine, three or more get you into moderation.

    Holy crap, that’s a seriously hardcore toolbar. The comments are going to look wild for the next while, as we try out all those nifty new buttons!

    Bring back the comment borders!

    Seriously, I find the comments section much more readable with the borders than the new borderless look.

    Ditto that. I’ll patiently wait to see how the new design shakes out (I don’t have much choice in the matter now, do I?). But the borderless comments look oh so very 2003. Are we supposed to be coding our own borders in HTML now?

    Give us a back our 17 days comment borders ! ! !

    I like it! Can’t wait for it to be done. I can adapt to the borderless comments.

    Still very saddened at the loss of Newman. He was all man, all American..without being a cartoon Rambo.

    Not to mention his great films and his charity.
