Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

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

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

“Just close your eyes and kiss the girl and go where the tilt-a-whirl takes you.” ~OzarkHillbilly

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

You cannot shame the shameless.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

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

One way or another, he’s a liar.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

… gradually, and then suddenly.

Compromise? There is no middle ground between a firefighter and an arsonist.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

    A meteor (or something) just landed in Detroit/Windsor area a few minutes ago, seeing reports that it shook houses.

    Pity it didn’t hit DC. I can think of one occupant, in a house colored sort of white-ish, who – unlike the denizens Detroit – actually deserved to be hit by that meteor.

    @JGabriel: Yeah, it’s what I was afraid it was. Come to think of it, wasn’t Russia the country that brought us the Protocols of the Elders of Zion?
    Nothing like returning to the old standbys, huh? //

    A link like that really needs more than an insidery joke. That is definitely NSFW. There needs to be a NSFW/racism/antisemitism acronym. Because I’ll click on plain old NSFW.

    Here I’m all ready with a clever remark about Orson Welles and Grovers Corners, and the thread’s completely ignoring the meteor.

    Fuck this link. Not “fuck you,” because that’s too easy and I still have a little bit of hope for you based on past comments here. That’s a flat-out anti-Semitic, Elders-of-Zion, nasty-ass piece of shit. IF you’re going to link to that kind of deeply evil, harmful garbage, you need to say so up front. I’m a Jew. My husband is a Jew. My kid is a Jew. Many BJers are Jews. These Russia Insider motherfuckers want us to die horrible deaths because we’re Jews. I rely on YOU, my friend and fellow commenter, to understand that and to not give a free pass to provide (a) those genocidal bastards with the clicks and (b) me and my fellow Jew-humans with the deep-seated existential dread that results from knowing this horrifying evil is out there, and YOU THINK IT’S ALL JUST CLICKBAIT. Please, don’t use our existence and our status as a human beings just to gratify your ego and drag a few comment-thread responses on an almost-top-10,000 blog.
