Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

No one could have predicted…

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

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

This blog will pay for itself.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

American History and Black History Cannot Be Separated

Let’s finish the job.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Teach a man to fish, and he’ll sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

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

White supremacy is terrorism.

Second rate reporter says what?

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

When someone says they “love freedom”, rest assured they don’t mean yours.

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

    I am so jealous of you west coasters. Stuck in Ohio were the only thing happening is Kay commenting. Our R senator is a jerk.

    @schrodingers_cat:
    Despite having eaten at many “New Mexican” restaurants elsewhere, the food in Santa Fe is uniquely wonderful (chile adobada FTW). Suspect it’s some combination of the local chilies and the altitude but whatever the reason, a food paradise and some of the nation’s oldest historical sites and structures, set in the high desert. Also home to quite a few of the nation’s ghoulishly wealthy, which isn’t easy to ignore but whatevs.

    Huh, only 2,200 miles. I guess I could say I’m going out for lunch and not be too specific.

    @Sab: Well, New Mexico doesn’t usually count as west coast, but we’re happy to be included in the event of Calexit. Condolences on Ohio GOP, also too.

    I lived in Santa Fe from October 1977 to June 1978 volunteering at a small private school then running a chair lift at the Ski Basin all the while sharing a house on Galisteo Street half a block south of Paseo de Peralta. We shopped at Kaune’s, drank at La Fonda (when we could afford it), and loved being ski bums. Ah, youth. (One of my housemates is now a political reporter for the New York Times.)

    Love love love Santa Fe, have been a regular visitor for 30+ years. First stop was always Bert’s Burger Bowl for a green chile cheeseburger and onion rings – “One Location Worldwide” – but alas, it’s gone. Maria’s is the first stop now – their Margarita menu is next level.

    Have a basket of sopapillas for me.

    @Origuy: Hmmm, yes I understand your position vis-a-vis Arizona. Maybe build a yuuuge bridge from NM to CA? Or a beautiful wall around AZ?

    @O. Felix Culpa: We’d take Nevada. If you could get the Navajos to secede, we’d just have to run the bridge from Nevada to the reservation. Cut the distance in half.
