Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

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

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

Optimism opens the door to great things.

RIP Zandar. We are still here fighting the stupid, now in your honor.

We’ll be taking my thoughts and prayers to the ballot box.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

🎶 Those boots were made for mockin’ 🎵

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

There is no right way to do the wrong thing.

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

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

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

I really should read my own blog.

There are a lot more evil idiots than evil geniuses.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

“In the name of Zandar, I will fight the Stupid!”

Per former-&-future Seattleite Yutsano:

Looks like we are settled for Sunday January 31st at 10am. Come one come all! Could I get a post tomorrow so I can get a head count? I’ll be able to check in during the day after my appointment tomorrow morning.

Venue: The Watershed, 10104 3rd Ave NE. Menu (.pdf) at the link, and I must admit it looks delicious!

Lurkers, spouses & friends always welcome. Drop a comment below if you’re planning to be there, or send me an email (click my name in the right-hand column, or annelaurie at verizon dot net) if you have questions, and I’ll forward them to Yutsano.

    I’ll call the Watershed today and request a table for 12. Thanks to hitchhiker we should be well taken care of. I’ll check for a more accurate headcount later as well.

    And YAAAAAAAAAY!

    ok, I just saw last Thursday’s TDS with that New Yorker political reporter and he’s sitting there and can’t explain why Trump and his fans don’t like political reporters. He must not just own a mirror or a TV or know where he was at that exact moment. Comedy Central has filled an hour almost every night for over a decade pointing out why.

    whats that line about ppl not understanding something if their paycheck depends on it? I’m getting legit scared now.

    I hate it when you guys organise meet-ups that are so far away from KL. Pout.

    Meanwhile, The New York Times has endorsed Hillary for the Democratic presidential nomination. Its argument is very similar to my own: she has broader and deeper qualifications for the Oval Office than Bernie, and she’s miles ahead of those Republican wack jobs. Should I be embarrassed or proud of that?

    @Amir Khalid: If I ever win a big lottery, we’ll have a meet-up in KL. How do you feel about a bunch of BJers showing up on your doorstep? :) Do you have any plans to visit the States? Wherever you go, there may be some of us (We’re Everywhere! Like Pod People!) and a meetup could be arranged.

    I was a little surprised to see the NYT endorse Hillary, because they never miss a chance to trash her in their news and commentary.

    @CaseyL:
    Alas, I haven’t been to the US since the first Clinton was president. And I’m no longer really well enough to commute, let alone travel. But meeting a whole bunch of the Juicitariat sounds marvelous.

    @Amir Khalid: They also endorsed Kasich, so take that for what it’s worth.

    Does Malaysia have religious travel restrictions like most of the Middle East does? Sucks I can only go to Israel, Lebanon, and Jordan.

    @Yutsano:
    I’ve met American Jews in Malaysia. As far as I know there’s no restriction on Jewish people entering the country, only on Israeli nationals. You should be okay for travel to Malaysia. Malaysian passports are good for travel to any country except Israel, and a Malaysian with an Israeli entry stamp in their passport will have some ‘splainin to do.

    @Amir Khalid: Get on a plane right now! You can make it. Edited to say I’m sorry you are not well enough to travel.

    I’m curious, are you a US citizen? If so, I am embarrassed that did not realize it.

    Hope it is a good one! I have some hazy memories of the one we had back in July 2013 at Pike Brewing…was a good time! Had a couple many drinks though ;)

    Count me as 1. Iain sends his regrets, but the prospect of unexpected solo time for writing proved irresistible.
