Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.

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

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

There are no moderate republicans – only extremists and cowards.

In my day, never was longer.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Everything is totally normal and fine!!!

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Reality always gets a vote in the end.

The low info voters probably won’t even notice or remember by their next lap around the goldfish bowl.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

“Alexa, change the president.”

    I’ve had to reactivate Adblock on this site because a script kept getting stuck and freezing Firefox. Presumably there’s a problem with the feeding of the ad server hamsters or some such. Maybe someone will see this and be able to do something, so that John Cole will not be deprived of ad-revenue share.

    @Amir Khalid: The latest version of Chrome won’t run “TrollBeGone”. It will only run scripts from the “Chrome Store”. Couldn’t it just tell me I have a “risky” script and let me make the decision? No the folk in Mountain View have to approve.

    30 minutes and Cole hasn’t stomped the thread yet.

    @BillinGlendaleCA: Yeah, I had any number of scripts I wrote for my own use to make my life easier when chrome decided to break itself and stop working. Happily they all still work on firefox, and frankly, firefox has always been much less of a pain in the ass to write for any way.

    And don’t get me started on google’s broken DHCP implementation.

    I’m at work. Just arrived at Anchorage Intl Airport for business.

    It’s 4 am eastern, but I’ve been innSan Francisco since Tuesday, so it’s only sort of 1am. But I’ve been up since 5.

    @Elmo: Well, at least it’s not dark up there. I’ve been to Anchorage quite a bit on bidness.

    ETA: Unfortunately, not always in the summer.

    @Betty Cracker: I give the pups big marrow bones on Friday (well, Saturday morning to keep them quiet at the farmers market too) and for the first time Bohdi decided it would be fun to drag one in the bedroom at 2am and chow down. Knuckle head.

    Hmm, strange British spelling on the Guardian:

    “on day 10, one of the favourites look to hit back at critics of their slow start – but do Iran have other ideas?”

    @Betty Cracker: Yes, but the real mistake is the “look” — “one of the favo[u]rites” is singular on both sides of the pond. (The “their,” as you say, is arguable.)

    @Betty Cracker: They are knuckle heads too. My bride has been working like a dog to get ready for a week long “art camp” starting tomorrow. She’s going to a fabric dying course and the prep has been extensive.
