Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

They punch you in the face and then start crying because their fist hurts.

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

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

The only way through is to slog through the muck one step at at time.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

GOP baffled that ‘we don’t care if you die’ is not a winning slogan.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

I did not have this on my fuck 2025 bingo card.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Republicans do not trust women.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

Let me file that under fuck it.

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

Their boy Ron is an empty plastic cup that will never know pudding.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

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

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

“Until such time as the world ends, we will act as though it intends to spin on.”

    Love that movie. Can’t say I’ve watched that many times though. When I watch it, my blood boils a little bit and my inner William Tecumseh Sherman comes out and all I can come up with is “Fuck the South!”

    I cannot watch that movie again. It makes me too sad. Terrific film but I cannot relive it. Seems kind of pathetic, writing it out, but true. I have a lot of great films that way. Even ones with hopeful endings, it is hard for me. For example, Lives of Others. Best film I think I have seen in a decade. But the claustrophobia and sadness keep me from watching it again. Weird.

    Dancer In The Dark, despite being David Morse’s best work ever, and Bjork’s quirkilicious star turn – can’t ever watch it again. The moment where he steals her wad from right under her nose, knowing everything that’s going to happen next…just no.

    for me it’s the last 30 minutes of the remake of Last of the Mohicans, always tear up but I’m sure that at least 60% of it is that damn soundtrack from Michael Mann.

    At the time it originally came out, my nearly no longer a teenage self thought “Easy Rider” was a crappy movie with a killer soundtrack.

    Now, 43 years later (and having seen it since then, including recently), have modified that to thinking it is a really crappy movie with a killer soundtrack.

    Chacun à son goût.

    Easy Rider was financed in part by the money Nicholson made by writing the Monkees feature film; “Head”, a movie so bad it almost comes all the way back around to good. Almost.

    It was before my time, but from my perspective the only thing about Easy Rider was “It’s Steppenwolf: Born to be Wild, but the song as a movie format.”

    Al Franken was at some weird function, back in the 90s, where he happened to be standing next to Newt Gingrich, and this happened:

    • “Then Dennis Hopper walked up. ‘You, sir, are a great man. You are doing great things.’ He wasn’t talking to me. Newt told Hopper how brilliant his performance was in Blue Velvet. How he loved Hopper’s intensity. I started to feel like I was in Blue Velvet.”

    I saw the movie once in the theatre. I don’t know if I’ll ever watch it again. It really seemed to reflect the despair and cynicism of the times in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. The ending seems almost prophetic to me now.

    My favorite Dennis Hopper scene was when he asks Martin Sheen about Col. Kurtz. In the movie Apocalypse Now

    Was he wise man? Was he a Good man?

    Enjoyed that manic performance.

    Dennis Hopper’s dead, Peter Fonda’s a Teabagger, and Jack Nicholson is a weird old creep. Aging is the shiz, ain’t it?

    I’m not sure if I can ever forgive Jack Nicholson for what he did to the Monkees.
