Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
Don’t expect peaches from an apple tree.
It’s all just conspiracy shit beamed down from the mothership.
“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”
It’s the corruption, stupid.
The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.
You are so fucked. Still, I wish you the best of luck.
We are aware of all internet traditions.
Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.
Republicans are the party of chaos and catastrophe.
The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.
Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.
Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.
Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.
Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.
Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.
An unpunished coup is a training exercise.
President Biden is doing good where he can, and getting it done.
if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.
The choice is between normal and crazy.
Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.
My right to basic bodily autonomy is not on the table. that’s the new deal.
You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.
The arc of the moral universe doesn’t bend itself. it’s up to us.
The gop is a fucking disgrace.

Let’s Go Rangers!!!
…oops

Some extra catness for the non-sports folks.
khead
Also, go Caps. I mean, I guess I should root for the home team.
p.a.
Let’s go B’s! Let’s go Celts! aahhh, where’s that other thread?

OT while waiting for an open Open Thread: neither of the former Bush presidents will be endorsing Trump
http://time.com/4318875/george-jeb-bush-donald-trump-endorse/
Some Rs can try and say it’s no big deal, the Bush name doesn’t mean much if anything, endorsements dont mean anything – whatever. It’s HUGE in my book. Two former GOP presidents won’t endorse their own party’s nominee? Gimme a break, that’s got to be without precedent.

Red v White sox game on.

@Jeffro: Who’s going to even nominate him? Christie?
SiubhanDuinne
@Mike J:
Pink Sox.
different-church-lady
@SiubhanDuinne: only if they shower together.
Gin & Tonic
@SiubhanDuinne: Some of us, even in New England, could not give two shits about ice hockey.
But, hey, the Celtics are now playing golf, so that’s good.
SiubhanDuinne
@Jeffro:
I’m guessing the Mittster also won’t endorse. (We already know McCain will.)
SiubhanDuinne
@different-church-lady:
I was thinking laundry, but that works.
Jeffro
@different-church-lady: I guess Christie, Carson, or the Huckster…Ted Nugent maybe? Sarah Palin? Scott Baio?
I think Bob Schooley had a tweet today that said whoever shows up in Cleveland, it’ll look like the cast of “Sharknado 5”. That pretty much sums it up.
different-church-lady
@Jeffro: OMG… They should SO have Nugent give the keynote!
BillinGlendaleCA
@different-church-lady: Sure Christie will do it, but he’ll look like someone put a gun to his head.
BillinGlendaleCA
@Jeffro: Maybe they can bring back Clint Eastwood and an empty chair.

17.44 that’s good hockey!

I found this TIME story to be very sweet. But isn’t a zoo supposed to be responsible for keeping unauthorised animals out of enclosures?
raven
I’ll be danged.
BillinGlendaleCA
@Amir Khalid:
We had a similar thing happen here in LA, though it didn’t end well. One of the local mountain lions got into the zoo and ate a koala.
LAO
@BillinGlendaleCA: totally similar. Lol
Origuy
@Amir Khalid: It’s Russia, Amir. The lynx probably has the cat running out for vodka and smokes.
p.a.
@BillinGlendaleCA: Well there’s something a koala hates more than Quantas.

I’ve heard European football fans go nuts, but this video of the Poland Cup is incredible. How they don’t manage to set the stadium on fire is beyond me.

Why isn’t Bernie starting at shooting guard? I demand answers!

I could close my eyes and watch hockey all night. I was in Edmonton and Calgary last year and my god those people love their pucks. I didn’t have the heart to tell them their favorite sport sucks big time.
Terry chay
I hope it doesn’t hurt the Pens that the hockey scoring ring is the same size in Pittsburgh as in the rest of America.
Wyliecoat
@khead: thank you

How about this fucking kid, Murray? He’s a fucking rock in front of that net. Damn, is he good and only 21!

@Terry chay:
LOL!
The trees are all the right size here, too!
MobiusKlein
So .. Hawks are bad then, vs Cavs.
Punchy
NBA game sucked balls. So many blowouts. LeBron destined to lose another Series Final.
Punchy
And Pens just stopped playing any offense in the 3rd period? All I see is the Caps peppering shot on that 11 year old goalie…hard to score if ya dont attempt any wristers.
Coin operated
Crosby…you pansy. Should have gotten an academy award for that last dive against the Caps.
Bitter Scribe
Kind of ironic that the Raptors are still in the playoffs, while none of Canada’s NHL teams even made it in.
That could be their new slogan for the Canadian market: “The Toronto Raptors. We’re all you got left.”
