Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

Live so that if you miss a day of work people aren’t hoping you’re dead.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

“A king is only a king if we bow down.” – Rev. William Barber

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

American history and black history cannot be separated.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

Beware of advice from anyone for whom Democrats are “they” and not “we.”

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

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

The lights are all blinking red.

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

When we show up, we win.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

This fight is for everything.

Republican also-rans: four mules fighting over a turnip.

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Disagreements are healthy; personal attacks are not.

Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

The revolution will be supervised.

    Liking the standing stones in UK. We’ve been trying to schedule a tour of barrow graves and standing stones through UK and Brittany for two years, and haven’t been able to make it work yet. But in 2018, I’m thinking we will make it happen somehow, if the crash hasn’t happened yet.

    Anyway, great picture, how did you come to visit there? What do you know about this stone circle? I know we don’t know much about them in general.

    So many great archaeological sites, and we know all kinds of irrelevant details about stuff, but nothing about the important things, what the believed, why they built/created/did the complex difficult things we can see today.

    ETA2 But what could anyone deduce about the VietNam Memorial, one of the most successful monuments of DC.

    I love Castlerigg Stone Circle. We were there, oh, nearly 30 years ago now, and what struck me was that it wasn’t at the highest elevation, looming over anything, but the most central — or maybe focused would be a better word — place. You can use the Google Maps – Street View function to view it, of course.
