Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

He really is that stupid.

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

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Republicans don’t want a speaker to lead them; they want a hostage.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

Too often we hand the biggest microphones to the cynics and the critics who delight in declaring failure.

People are complicated. Love is not.

American History and Black History Cannot Be Separated

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

I was promised a recession.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the dice to roll

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

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

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

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

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

Hot air and ill-informed banter

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

    Because they hide the pictures at work it just says “Max sun.” Totally different thing.

    I’m just punchy with exhaustion. My Great Dane, who came to us last Easter, is apparently terrified of snow. She barked at it all night as it fell off the branches onto the roof.

    Then at dawn I had to carry the 12 pound dog out into the yard and drop him in it over his head, to get him past the dreaded Edge of Concrete.

    Then once he tried out romping in the snow he forgot to eliminate which was my primary purpose in wading out there in my PJs and my kid’s muck boots.

    I doubt there’s anything more wonderful than a sleeping, snoring, cuddly dog.

    Life is kind of simple when you really think about it.

    @ranchandsyrup:

    Big goldfish but wouldn’t make a respectable koi. I wonder whether Tahoe gets warm enough for them to breed? Guess we’ll find out (always seems freakishly cold to me).

    @Trollhattan: The avg. water temp in tahoe only varies about a degree over the course of a year because the lake is so deep. It’s a gigantic cone of water. 2nd larges mtn. lake in the world behind Lake Titicaca. 2nd deepest lake in the US and 10th deepest in the world.

    ETA: near the surface it can vary more–around 10 degrees or so. Below the surface layer, it remains constant over the course of the year.

    Isn’t it amazing how much room so-called “small” animals can take up on a bed? My two cats are expert at arranging themselves on the bed so that the household humans can’t get into it.

    @Poopyman: It will indeed be an exciting time. I plan to be dead.

    (I guess if that article is correct, pretty much everybody should make similar plans.)
