Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Anyone who bans teaching American history has no right to shape America’s future.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

If you are still in the GOP, you are an extremist.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

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

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

I was promised a recession.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

The GOP is a fucking disgrace.

Peak wingnut was a lie.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Let there be snark.

Second rate reporter says what?

The revolution will be supervised.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

It’s time for the GOP to dust off that post-2012 autopsy, completely ignore it, and light the party on fire again.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Speaking of republicans, is there a way for a political party to declare intellectual bankruptcy?

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

    @amk: lol likely after moving, late and tired, he clocked the update button. No biggie, just a pain for y’all until I can adjust things.

    Alain, sending you a delicious cup of strong coffee. With croissant.

    Thank you, and what a headache to wake up to. On the positive side, no one is taking your earlier work for granted. (Comment numbers rock.)

    @Elizabelle: FYI, a good croissant will get you anything! Now off to make some breakfast. I’ll be back in a bit when more conscious,

    I went to the relatively small “rally” here. They had a permit to be there but not to march. It was held at the Athena statue so they tried to “march” around that. It reminded me of Mecca but folks did the best with what they had. The sound was awful even in a really small space and, since we were right next to a busy street, every time someone honked people responded with “whoo hoo’s” that made it even more impossible to hear.

    It wasn’t John, it was Adam. He sent me an email mid-night. Sorry John, didn’t mean to point a finger; I assumed other FPers wouldn’t update things.

    I think it was OzarkHillbilly what done it. I think his “what did Alain do NOW?” comment from the thread below was just a smokescreen. And Quinerly was obviously in on it.

    Next up: my theory as to how the alleged Russian hacking was a false flag operation by Hitlary.

    @amk: through Pootie’s Scottish connections, I believe. My sources indicate he was paid in haggis and scotch.

    I wonder if the very-larger-than-usual number of photos posted yesterday are part of the mess up?

    @rikyrah: I clicked pretty quickly. The caller I heard was a real misogynist. Women should be grateful their don’t live in Saudi Arabia. Men should be paid more because they are more likely to be killed on the job. Etc.

    Thanks Alain. I noticed something overnite and thought it was a browser update. (Yeah,I was sleep deprived then.)

    dance around in your bones

    I thought I was hallucinating – from one thread to the next everything got tiny (Thanks Cheese Whiz!) and weird-looking (ditto “Prezz*!) …..still looks borked-o-rama today.
    ???? sigh…..

    ETA: Ok, now looks better but things still missing – who stole my cheese?!

    Testing comments features here.

    Hi Alain, hope you have been well!

    Editing.

    Second edit:
    Alain:

    The back button isn’t right anymore.

    After posting this comment and then editing it, I went back to your comment about Adam, scrolled to a reply comment, hit the back button and it brought me back to this comment at the bottom, not back to your comment about Adam where I wanted to go.

    Another Scott

    @amk: Thanks for those pictures.

    Trump is such an inhuman monster. :-(

    You know he’s counting the days until he divorces her so he can get someone younger; probably someone who looks just like Ivanka…

    I think her cribbing of Michelle’s speech shows that she probably has a decent heart, and she really is trapped in a golden cage with him, but everyone makes choices and she’s living with hers…

    We really were so lucky that Barack and Michelle were leading us for the last 8 years.

    Cheers,
    Scott.

    Alain – If an update borked the site, I’m assuming you’re not using a child theme to store all the site tweaksand modifications. A child theme is essentially a subfolder in the theme that won’t be wiped clean when the primary theme is updated. Apologies if you’re using one and the update still f’ed things up.
