Is it just the Martian Death Rhinovirus I’m recovering from, or has this week been a veritable shitestorm of “GOP Greatest Hits (taken out on the Constitution) of the 80s / 90s“?

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
Let’s not be the monsters we hate.
In my day, never was longer.
Republicans don’t trust women.
It could be worse. Vance could have said “post-menopausal sows.” Waiting for that audiotape to surface.
How any woman could possibly vote for this smug smarmy piece of misogynistic crap is beyond understanding.
Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.
Everything is totally normal and fine!!!
“I never thought they’d lock HIM up,” sobbed a distraught member of the Lock Her Up Party.
We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.
Fight them, without becoming them!
“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”
My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.
This really is a full service blog.
Their freedom requires your slavery.

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.
The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.
Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.
If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.
Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.
This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.
Technically true, but collectively nonsense
Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Hopefully, this is their farewell tour.

If the Republicans actually nominate Newt, I’ll start believing in God because my nonprayers will have been answered.
Newt is mean, ugly, and a nasty fat fuck. No one likes him.
I can’t wait to see the rotund snotty bully-faced twatsmacker up on the debate stage against smooth, long, cool Obama.

Jane Hamsher is right. It pains me to admit it, but she’s right.
Some of Obama’s supports are nothing more than puppets

Soo, we’ve been without power for 24 hours due to the great California windstorm. Four out of 5 possible routes to the hospital from my mountain hamlet are blocked by downed trees and wires. And my wife is in labor.
How was your day?

Holy shit. Good luck, and if it’s a girl, name her Ana.

Oh Lord, do you have lots of hot water and towels, isn’t that what they always called for in old Westerns? (In all seriousness be safe, and my thoughts are with you both)

Welp, already missed “Rudolph” on Tuesday, missed ‘The Grinch” too, so I am damn well gonna watch “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town” in claymation!
ETA: Looks like I’ll have another chance to see The Grinch next Wednesday…I’m nostalgic that way
Corner Stone
Wait. I meant “Kodos”. I voted for Kodos.

I remember the giraffe quote, but when I went to find it for a youngun, I found this…..
http://www.joketribe.com/96/June/Newt.and.the.Giraffe.php
for instance
8. When you see Geoffrey, the Toys ‘R’ Us giraffe, do you ever get the urge to stick him with a spear?
Yes: 40%
No: 60%
dont remember ever seeing that before, but that is 100% wholesome effing goodness

Jenny, I have been just loving your posts and comments and always smile when I see them. There’s always a wonderful photo behind your links. Thanks for the witty and reassuring visual reminders that we have some very fine, and much-loved, people in the White House.

@SiubhanDuinne: I agree! Awesomesauce! Thanks so much for this Jennbot!

Yow! Be careful, stay safe (but hurry up, okay?), and have a beautiful healthy baby. Let us know. Later is fine.

I always enjoy the Pie People. Not sure why they venture out of their protected echo chambers. It’s fun to watch them declare themselves so loudly, and then wrap their woobies so tightly as they scurry back into their holes.

Cracked is an empty piece of fluff but this may be the most devastating indictment of “Money can’t buy happiness” bullshit I have ever seen:

@JGabriel:
Pasadena got hit really hard — most people still don’t have power and all of the schools were closed. G’s office is near Eagle Rock and they didn’t have power until lunchtime. I have no idea when the poor man is going to be home tonight.
So all you people on the East Coast who didn’t have power after your hurricane? A little sympathy, please. It’s not all crushed Mercedes and Jesus statues out here.
ETA: This is one of the few times I’m glad we live in Glendale instead of Pasadena — we only lost power for a couple of hours last night. Cats were super freaked out by the noise of the winds, though.

@Schlemizel:
John Cheese is probably the best writer they have at Cracked, especially when he writes about being a recovering alcoholic. I was quoting his “Five Ways We Ruined the Occupy Generation” column the other day.

YouTube just rolled out yet another new redesign.
Why do they keep doing this shit? Every single new rendition is uglier and less functional than the last. I’m just glad I never used the front page, they basically shit all over that.
