Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Trump makes a mockery of the legal system and cowardly judges just sit back and let him.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

Let the trolls come, and then ignore them. that’s the worst thing you can do to a troll.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

After dobbs, women are no longer free.

People really shouldn’t expect the government to help after they watched the GOP drown it in a bathtub.

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

    I’ve been painting my house today so did not know that the state of AZ decided to ignore the constitution and start profiling everyone until early this evening. I do hope that a few patriotic policemen stop and question a few old white guys about their citizenship papers. Recently I used the term silly season for the antics of the right but after today it’s obvious that it’s racist season.

    I had an old fashioned Sony Trinitron TV that lasted for prolly 20 years. It was a good TV, bless its heart. Now I have a lil’ old-fashioned color TV. It’ll probably last a long time because I dropped my cable service a while back. That was weird. I canceled it due to lack of money, but Comcast didn’t get around to disconnecting me for a whole year. Didn’t bill me or anything, just didn’t get around to it. (And when they did, I was all outraged for 30 seconds until I remembered. Duh.)

    Imagine:

    Imagine that hundreds of black protesters were to descend upon Washington DC and Northern Virginia, just a few miles from the Capitol and White House, armed with AK-47s, assorted handguns, and ammunition. And imagine that some of these protesters —the black protesters — spoke of the need for political revolution, and possibly even armed conflict in the event that laws they didn’t like were enforced by the government? Would these protester — these black protesters with guns — be seen as brave defenders of the Second Amendment, or would they be viewed by most whites as a danger to the republic? What if they were Arab-Americans? Because, after all, that’s what happened recently when white gun enthusiasts descended upon the nation’s capital, arms in hand, and verbally announced their readiness to make war on the country’s political leaders if the need arose.

    …

    To ask any of these questions is to answer them. Protest is only seen as fundamentally American when those who have long had the luxury of seeing themselves as prototypically American engage in it. When the dangerous and dark “other” does so, however, it isn’t viewed as normal or natural, let alone patriotic. Which is why Rush Limbaugh could say, this past week, that the Tea Parties are the first time since the Civil War that ordinary, common Americans stood up for their rights: a statement that erases the normalcy and “American-ness” of blacks in the civil rights struggle, not to mention women in the fight for suffrage and equality, working people in the fight for better working conditions, and LGBT folks as they struggle to be treated as full and equal human beings.

    …

    And this, my friends, is what white privilege is all about. The ability to threaten others, to engage in violent and incendiary rhetoric without consequence, to be viewed as patriotic and normal no matter what you do, and never to be feared and despised as people of color would be, if they tried to get away with half the shit we do, on a daily basis.

    If this doesn’t move you, you are a douchebag, plain and simple.

    I hardly watch teevee anymore other than some news, and I am like our host in that if something still works, it isn’t quite right to replace it. I have an ancient recliner chair that literally looks like it was run over by a semi. There are springs and pieces of boards sticking out the sides, but it is still highly comfortable to recline in, so I just cover all the wreckage up the best I can, and put off buying a new one first thing every morning.

    After being able to pretty much ignore everything on TV for years, because all I had was an ancient 27″ CRT, I bought a coworker’s 55-inch rear projection Mitsubishi (cause he was moving and the price was about what I’d pay for a new 27″). I had an epiphany the first time I watched anything. That is now the size of screen I’m used to, so most TVs now seem puny to me. Also, perhaps unfortunately, I watch a lot more TV than I used to.

    However, I also finally broke down and upgraded from DSL to cable modem, so I can stream TV to my computer without it stopping every 2 seconds to clear the buffer. I can download TV shows directly to my computer… for free (mostly)… and have been wondering about giving up the cable TV.

    Two things hold me back: I love Comcast’s On Demand; and I can’t watch TV with company if it’s streaming on my computer. The first reason to keep the cable TV will soon be obsolete, thanks to streaming video and RedBox… but the second reason still stands. Unless there is such a thing as a cable that will feed the streaming TV from my computer to the big gorgeous Mitsubishi, and even then I’d want to know whether the image would be Mitsubishi sharp or as fuzzy as a 17″ image trying to spread out over a 55″ screen.

    Anyone know if such tech exists?

    Ok, I’m in the middle of the spring rush at the greenhouse where I work, so I missed this whole gardening-ish day – – but I have to drag out my Master Gardener creds and offer two pieces of unsolicited info and advice –

    1. Re Dandelions – well the problem is (besides the monoculture lawn thing – that they are an invasive, non-native species. Seriously. Taraxacum officinale was (supposedly) unknown on the North American continent until they were introduced by – wait for it – French (Huguenot) Immigrants to the NY/NJ are in the early 1700s.

    (And I am of French extraction myself , on one side – so it’s all my fault, I guess )

    2. Forget the topsy-turvy tomato planter. Sell it at a yard sale, give it to the neighbor kid – I promise it will break your heart. I have seen exactly ONE of these things turn out well – and that was the one we kept in the greenhouse, away from nasty cruel winds and stuff like that, that was watered and fertilized and pampered by the whole damn staff.

    Other than that, they’re a mess. If they ever dry out completely, they are impossible to re-wet – because water runs down – gravity, and all that – and out the hole at the bottom – instead of staying where you need it, at the top of the bag where the roots are. None that we sold – even to ever-vigilent gardening customers – turned out well.

    If you are so masochistic that you insist on trying it – and hey, you run this blog, so you probably are, JC – at least plant it with a determinate, bush-type tomato – I recommend Bush Celebrity or Better Bush – so you have a fighting chance of not having a straggly, 8 foot monster with one tomato on it.

    (also – hang this thing UP off the ground – even with a bush tomato, it needs a lot of clearance – 7 or 8 feet – and from a STRONG hook and beam – when it’s fully grown and wet, it weighs a TON. No, you can’t use a shepherds crook to hang it – we’re talking a structural timber here.

    Cole, Cole – what IS this glutton for punishment thing you have?

    Reality-based, I’ll ask you my flea question. My dogs seem to be lightly infested. I’ve put the drops on them 2 weeks ago, given them the kill pill and they are still bringing them in from outside. Is there anything safe for animals, plants, people, birds, bees and butterflies I can spray on the yard to get rid of them, oh master gardener?

    a straggly, 8 foot monster with one tomato on it.

    That was pretty much what I would up with when I tried thisdeck planter. Lush greenery on two of four bushes, but maybe 2-3 tomatoes, total. Thing is, the planter is designed so that the roots can remain wetted, so drying out wasn’t the issue. Decent sun exposure was a problem because of shadows from the planter. But I think the main problem is that the plants sense that they’re upside down, and they don’t like it.

    At least this planter lets me plant things right side up. I’ve planted 5 kinds of basil in it this year.

    Two soldiers who were in the company depicted in the Wikileaks video have written an apology to the Iraqi people:

    We acknowledge our part in the deaths and injuries of your loved ones as we tell Americans what we were trained to do and what we carried out in the name of “god and country”. The soldier in the video said that your husband shouldn’t have brought your children to battle, but we are acknowledging our responsibility for bringing the battle to your neighborhood, and to your family. We did unto you what we would not want done to us.

    @Dee Loralei:

    oh, dear – the YARD makes it a problem – as anything you spray with that will kill fleas – such as pyrethrin, derived from painted daisies, generally about the least toxic of the available insecticides – will also kill lady bugs, bees, and other friendly bugs.

    You could, however, try spraying the whole place with insecticidal soap – it will reduce the whole bug poulation for a while, but the effect doesn’t last –

    I have to say, when I lived in CA, and the flea problem was terrible, the best thing I found was using a boric acid mixture ( I got one called Flea Busters) that I worked into the carpet with broom,, and then vacuumed up – that helped a lot, as did keeping the cats on their once-monthly drops-on-the neck schedule –

    (sigh) Fleas – along with the Human Spine, a great argument AGAINST Intelligent Design!

    @SIA: We had a 19 inch RCA (when they were actually made in America) that lasted for 18 years. When it went 2 years ago, I went looking for another one, and the sales person at Best Buy or where ever said, “Nope you don’t want one. Not made well anymore.”

    Sadly the story of everything these days. Except for Ford and GM and gee I am so glad I was for that rescue when all my Republican friends and relatives were SO very against its rescue by the taxpayer, all about the unions you know. “They were the reason that GM fell on hard times.” Still wish, though, they hadn’t killed my Saturn.

    @SIA: We bought our last tv in 2001, primarily because the software company where my husband worked was also making hardware, and we needed to be able to test it from home. Until then, we’d been using his 19″ color tv that he received as a high school graduation present in 1989.

    The 2001 Sony is still working fine, so I can’t see replacing it, especially since the bedroom still has my 13″ 1992 tv from college (purchased to watch the political conventions and Olympics). I bought it at Target for less than $100. The original remote no longer works, but it’s stylin’ with plastic wood paneling around the outside. At this point, it’s “classic.”

But I’ll look into the insecticidal soaps first and maybe spray that portion of the yard once a week or so to see if it works. Maybe there’s something garlic based out there, fleas hate garlic. I’ll prolly experiment with several things to find anything that will last a few weeks. ( YAY Science) Sheesh it’s so hard being responsible, or I guess as Kermit said ” it’s not easy being green.”

They used the Tea Party protestors for their own purposes and then left them on the side of the road, only to be picked up again when they need to protect another company or industry.

    @freelancer (itouch): I found State Within by accident. I knew there was a movie based on some BBC tv show coming and knew State was in the title. So I went hunting on Netflix, when State Within popped up and sounded all intriguey I queued it up and watched all the eps. Loved it, realized lead actor was Lucious Malfoy from HP, went to Imdb to see what else he had done and found one I really liked set on the east coast and he seduces a Portugeuse/ American torch singer. Can’t remember the name, sorry. but the music was amazing.

    A few days later I realized I meant to watch State of Play and did so. And really felt a wee bit let down watching the (Hollywood) movie,since it was really good, but not nearly as in depth or emotional as the mini-series.

    But if you like those, you will love MI-5, I promise. I’d seen those on BBCAmerica, and was so please that you can stream I think all 5(6) seasons from Netflix.

    The only good American intrigue tv I’ve seen in the last few years was a mini-series called The Grid. There’s a BBC one called Dirty Bomb that’s intense too.

    @Dee Loralei: Not a yard solution, BUT… the other thing you might try is feeding your dogs brewers yeast. If they’ll eat it (some think it’s a treat, others won’t touch the stuff), it apparently changes their scent just enough to make them “invisible” to fleas. I’m told it also works for humans against mosquitos, and fleas if you’re one of the unfortunates who attracts them, but the problem is that you have to remember to eat the pills every day for at least 21 days before skeeter season starts and keep on eating them right up through the first killing frosts. However, it’s nutritional as well as harmless — pet suppliers sell it as a coat supplement — so if your guys will cooperate, it can’t hurt to try!

    @Anne Laurie: I’ll look into that, I’m giving them both 6 benadryls a day (3pills 2x) , and I’ve started adding garlic powder to their food, so why not brewers yeast?

    I bought an RCA TV in 1979 or so. A sticker on the back said it was built in Bloomington, Indiana, in a factory my mom had once worked at. I finally got rid of it about 2000 or so; it still had a decent picture. Occasionally it would flake out and the sound would get really loud. That factory had shut down by then, so I got a Panasonic.

    Be careful about that screen door. A few years ago, my Maine Coon, Boots, had finally had all he could take from the squirrel who lived in the oak tree in the front yard and who apparently found it extremely amusing to stand about ten feet out from the screen door when Boots was behind it and torment the poor cat. The day Boots’ patience ran out, he took a running start, crashed right through the screen in the door, and chased that squirrel up the oak tree. The squirrel then jumped into the hackberry in the side yard, stranding Boots halfway up the oak tree with no idea how to get down. Fortunately, the neighbors had a tall ladder and I had plenty of treats. Poor Boots slept for a good 6 hours after we got him down, and he had a few dreams. I think I can guess their theme. I replaced the screen with the heaviest gauge screening I could find and made sure it was deeply anchored, but the silly squirrel never came back. I guess he got scared too.

    @Yutsano: No nookie for you tonight! No, I know it’s true. It’s just difficult for me to accept.

    HDTV–I lurves it.

    But, someone shoot me, please. My Vikes are getting teabagged by Favre this off-season as he does his yearly will-I or won’t-I tease. What a fucking diva.

    Cole, your reasons for wearing flip-flops on the La-Z Boy are acceptable. Barely. Lily is cute, and TUUUUUUNCH!

    Sen. Coburn (R-OK), an ObGyn, would be owed 2,166 chickens for delivering a baby. Sue Lowden, please ask him if he would accept poultry for payment.

    It’s spelled Mangina.

    No, see, that bothers me as a woman because what that’s saying is Mangini is so awful and wimpy he’s like lady parts. So, no to Mangina.

    I’m happy to call him a dick, tho.

    @gbear:

    I probably had that same TV. Bought the Trinitron in the early ’80s, and it was a faithful servant through the millennium. The lack of a remote wasn’t a problem, because the cable-box remote did almost everything. Great picture, too.
