Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

Washington Post Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

The revolution will be supervised.

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

Not all heroes wear capes.

You are either for trump or for democracy. Pick one.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

Republicans don’t lie to be believed, they lie to be repeated.

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

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

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

Our job is not to persuade republicans but to defeat them.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

    Republicans cave on the debt limit and nary a peep. Republican capitulation passed away quietly in the Blogistan night. So long Trillion Dollar Coin,we hardly knew ya…

    But, hey, what is that on the horizon? Much wailing and gnashing of teeth as it appears that the Might Harry is about to strike out.

    You know Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan has a nephew Rahat Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan who trained under his uncle and is a pretty good singer as well. He’s much more commercial than the uncle but still very good.

    I just watched Frontline. I shouldn’t have watched it. It just makes me angry. These people will never face justice and they’ve caused an unbelievable amount of pain. I know six people personally who lost their houses who are starting all over again. Lloyd Blankfein, meanwhile, probably paid cash for his multiple homes and will never have to worry about his credit rating or having the money to buy a house or a car or anything.

    Catching second half of rebroadcast of Frontline on DOJ’s timidity in pursuing banksters.

    Hope it finds its audience, and major prosecutions ensue. (Wondering, though, about statute of limitations.)

    Would like to see the government prevail in as many criminal cases as they can mount.

    I just completed a complete play of all 9732 songs on my iPod, on shuffle. It was wonderful.

    Last song was Mathew Sweet, “I’ve been waiting”

    Blinky Williams singing the Good Times theme song. Did she sing–Hangin and a jivin or did she sing Hanging in a chow line? Either way she kicks ass and obviously cannot be controlled by the producer.

    Man, haven’t listened to Bella Fleck since the Flecktones. They put on one hell of a show live, too – one of my top 5 concerts of all time.

    I should really dig out those old CDs.

    Did you lose the Lilly Water CD or something? Bummer!!

    Try Bela’s work with Abigail Washburn, called the Sparrow Quartet. Great stuff.

    Then Ben Sollee’s album, learning to bend.

    Then venture in to the Punch Brothers if you dare!!

    All great music.

    I like this one a lot, O re Piya

    A lot of the Water Lily titles are available as high-resolution downloads from HDTracks.com. They sound ridiculously good.

    @schrodinger’s cat: No, that’s simply not true. Securities fraud is hard to prove, but in almost any transaction if you have an intent to deceive you can make a case.

    The proof is actually quite easy to find – people making contrary bets, people hiding data that buyers should have had.

    And the MERS thing if flat fucking incredible. Every single goddamn mortgage transferred via MERS is invalid. That’s the law.
