Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You don’t get to peddle hatred on saturday and offer condolences on sunday.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Reality always lies in wait for … Democrats.

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

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

When do the post office & the dmv weigh in on the wuhan virus?

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

Infrastructure week. at last.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Black Jesus loves a paper trail.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Within six months Twitter will be fully self-driving.

Second rate reporter says what?

Let’s finish the job.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Roe isn’t about choice, it’s about freedom.

    Congratulations on the safe ending, Cole. I presume all your guests will be picked up off-site at the police checkpoints that have no doubt been established.

    How do the animals interact with the partying hordes? Do they mingle, or do you have to sequester them?

    Willard’s spokesman, Ryan Williams, went into the arena hours before Obama’s OH rally, when no one was there, and took a picture. He then waited until the rally actually started, and posted said picture on twitter with the message ‘View from the floor during @BarackObama speech. Not the overflow crowd he promised’.

    It was a blatant f’n lie, but winger sites, desperate for anything negative, ran with it. Romney and his people truly are vile.

    It also explains the media pushing the narrative. I bet they actually coordinated with the Romney camp.

    @Steeplejack: All that pulled pork JC made? That was for his guests to feed to Tunch so Tunch wouldn’t feed on his guests.

    Sad. Futile. Pathetic. Stunt. Fail.

    Won’t work.

    Good Romney camp got cheesy trick number umpteen thousand out of their system early in the campaign.

    This infantile stunt is what running on fumes, and knowing it, looks like.

    @TheMightyTrowel: Cole fed his guests to Tunch!? Did I read that right?

    I guess that is what the jail joke is about.

    Cole should light out of town right now. That stunt won’t work either.

    You would think a Rove shank would be enough to keep Tunch at bay for a weekend, but no.

    Edit: And, did Cole save a guest for Tunch’s bed time snack?

    @Steeplejack: I wonder that as well. My animals are mixed – the dog (a Pomeranian) loves loves loves having people over, he even gets revved up for delivery people. One cat is meh, doesn’t want to know these people, but can’t be bothered to actually avoid them. The other one is OMG STRANGER DANGER to the max with most anyone who doesn’t live here. I’ve seen him actually back up the stairs when he accidentally made it halfway down before noticing a non-resident was here.

    The one exception is when my 17-year-old daughter has a few friends over. When they were loud screechy tweenies he had nothing to do with them. Now that they are beautiful young women, he is suddenly quite the ladiez man. Wanders in, does the flop & stretch in the middle of the room, so they all go “aww, he’s so cute” & rub the belly. Oy, the males of whatever species are alike.

    Dogs decided that I could stop the sky from booming again, so I get woken up to the sound of thunder and dog licks to my feet and ears.

    Didn’t even know we were supposed to get rain tonight. Suppose we can use it, but I could do without the doggie drama.

    And, naturally, they left the wife alone. She’s still solidly asleep. Apparently they think I’m the only one with the power to make the sky stop going boom.

    Swell. Really, dogs. Swell.

    don’t like your reality? try the new Republican reality! now with 40% more white people and a new and improved minority filter that allows you to ignore not only black people, but hispanics and poor people too. For only a modest campaign contribution, we can add the deluxe package that allows you to filter by religion, sex and sexual preference as well! Buy yours today, invest in Romneycom and operators are standing by!

    Or they figured (correctly) that you might get up & at least do a perimeter check, whilst a slumbering Wife… is not to be disturbed.

    Love versus respect, the pack-species conundrum.

    ” TUNCH OR GTFO. ”

    Truer words never spoken. We need a pic of Tunch.

    Any ‘guest’ bits showing on his whiskers? Post it quick in case the BJ lawyers need to give Cole some friendly advice.

    @kdaug: doggie drama ? yeah, tell me about it. Our pug bitch, who constantly ignores me, came running to my bedroom, because no one else was at home and some fireworks were on nearby. Bitch.

    Damit. I am so out of it. I somehow got it into my head that the new Avengers movie was a new version of the TV series, except better than the last one was supposed to be (I never saw it).

    But it is some Marvel comics superhero action flick. Scratch seeing that.

    Who is the next Diana Rigg/ Emma Peel, anyway? We need one.

    I’ve feel as though I’ve watched all of the newer TV shows that are any good. I’m kind of bummed because I want MOAR.

    Breaking Bad: Watched it all
    The Killing: Current
    Justified: I’m current
    Burn Notice: current
    Game of thrones (I don’t like that much but whatever): Current
    Mad Men: I hate this show. The characters are sycophants, IMO. No interest.

    What doesn’t suck, right now? (UK or US)

    Also: Sherlock

    The second series of Sherlock starts tonight, making an already crowded Sunday night impossible. Thankfully, HBO airs their shows 700 times per week.

    You should be in jail…are you a black woman who discharged a firearm in your own home to ward off domestic violence thinking that FL’s stand your ground law would protect you the way it protected non-Black, non-Female George Zimmerman? Silly dark slut, laws are for us!
