Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans got rid of McCarthy. Democrats chose not to save him.

If a good thing happens for a bad reason, it’s still a good thing.

Nancy smash is sick of your bullshit.

This fight is for everything.

Giving up is unforgivable.

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

It is not hopeless, and we are not helpless.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

All hail the time of the bunny!

“Facilitate” is an active verb, not a weasel word.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

So many bastards, so little time.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

I’m more christian than these people and i’m an atheist.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

the 10% who apparently lack object permanence

“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”

I would try pessimism, but it probably wouldn’t work.

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Authoritarian republicans are opposed to freedom for the rest of us.

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

    The BBC lists Germany vs. Norway as kicking off at 21:00 on June 11: you’ve jumped the gun by about a day.

    No matter. We have an open thread.

    In a football-related news story, Brazilian legend Arthur Antunes Coimbra “Zico” has tossed his hat in the ring for the upcoming FIFA special presidential election, joining (if I’m not mistaken) fellow legends Michel Platini (the current UEFA president) and Luis Figo.

    For those who have seen “Mad Max: Fury Road,” a bit of whimsy:

    In just a few weeks at the box office, Mad Max: Fury Road has already inspired a ton of fervent fan devotion. Now it seems the war boys have made it all the way into Amazon reviews…. The film features a chrome spray the war boys use when they think they’re going to meet their end, and that product is fairly similar to Wilton Silver Cool Mist over on Amazon. Uh-oh.

    The war boys have found the cool mist and are hijacking the reviews with hilarious notes like “What a spray! What a lovely spray!” and references back to their fearless leader Joe.

    And the USA has just won 2-1. The German team hasn’t played a single good game since winning the World Cup.

    @Randinho: It’s OK, you gave us a day’s notice so we could record it. For those of us who can’t watch live.

    Amazing friendly today between the US and Germany.

    The US played so well and so aggressively. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a US side play like that.

    What is a good site for sports news? Deadspin and Grantland don’t have enough scores and such; Yahoo Sports looks like an old GeoCities site. Are my best options ESPN and SI, assuming I avoid Peter King?

    It’s also odd that I have something in common with Bo Jackson. Namely, two artificial hips. I’m waiting for the Borg nanoprobes to start developing.
