Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

“I was told there would be no fact checking.”

“They all knew.”

Giving up is unforgivable.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

A tremendous foreign policy asset… to all of our adversaries.

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

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

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

We cannot abandon the truth and remain a free nation.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

Decision time: keep arguing about the last election, or try to win the next one?

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

Stay strong, because they are weak.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Consistently wrong since 2002

    No contest?

    We’ll just place your case on the inactive docket, John. In seven years, if no other charges emerge, you’ll be free.

    …negligence because Pittsburgh is not involved.

    Funny, I’ve always been of the opposite opinion…

    @stuckinred: Aren’t all sports fans?
    ETA: I freely admit to being a somewhat whiney sports fan but I wouldn’t have to whine if the refs/umps did their job :)

    @stuckinred: Doing well in Nashville (moved for the phd program) but miss California terribly (oh, to not sweat as soon as you get out of the shower).
    Oh no! I hope that she feels better.

    Just finished “When the Game Was Ours” by Magic Johnson and Larry Bird (with Jackie MacMullan), and it made me very nostalgic.

    Wobs, you’re not the only exile over here now. *grin* I drop in for LNFDL since most of the people there are still friendly, but otherwise i stay away from the place. Less likely to get ulcers over here, among other constant anger type related maladies.

    @aliasofwestgate: :) Hey you! Hope all is well. Well I just felt it was time for me to move on given that I had been told that I was not a ‘real’ progressive but I do miss some of the people there. Thank goodness for FB :)

    Wobblybits and stuckinred, didn’t think I would see fellow Nashville/Vandy people here. I am in Philly with a soon to be college freshman to be but I am also a Vandy alum. Having good Spats flashbacks if I am not dating things too much :0

    Prediction: John will set up an NHL thread Wednesday night and exactly zero Blackhawks fans will post on it, because, like last night, we’ll all be too busy partying! WOOT!

    I’m getting 2004 vibes here, especially with Kobe sniping at his teammates in the postgame presser, Gasol firing back (a little), and Phil Jackson whining about the refs… Okay, Phil Jackson always whines about the refs. Would love to see the Celtics run the table at home.
