Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

Not so fun when the rabbit gets the gun, is it?

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

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

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

Let me eat cake. The rest of you could stand to lose some weight, frankly.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The willow is too close to the house.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

Fuck these fucking interesting times.

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

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Battle won, war still ongoing.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

Let’s finish the job.

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

Just because you believe it, that doesn’t make it true.

Ach du lieber!

Yes, yes, I know the video in the tweet is actually from 2015…

Anyhow, you all know what this means! An audio-video extravaganza of a dogfight between the leader of Jagdgeschwader 1 (JG 1), also known as Richtofen’s Flying Circus, and a dog!

Open thread!

    I love snoopy.
    My daughter is in LA and chose to go to the observatory tonight and is excited because she got to see a rocket launch that was not planned.

    Speaking of strange flying things, I got a decent view of SpaceX’s latest launch about 30 or so minutes ago. It was a bit too far away for good photography, though I kind of liked the way this shot came out:

    This is right after stage separation; second stage is the bright flare on left, heading up and south. First stage is the flare on right, doing a boost-back maneuver to return north to Vandenberg AFB.

    @?BillinGlendaleCA: It was pretty impressive.I was able to follow it for most of the way, and then fired up the webcast to see the landing.

    Also, I think the government of Pasadena would take it as a special favor if you didn’t call the bridge that. They’re quite proud of their suicide-prevention barriers.

    @TaMara (HFG): @M. Bouffant:
    In 1967, my HS buddy and I were talked into playing folksongs at what we thought was a coffeehouse at a youth center in the DC area. The group before us was doing acoustic covers of British Rock and were getting a bad reception from a crowd that wanted something heavier/more up-to-date/more soul. My friend and I looked at each other and said, “Those guys are good! What’s this crowd going to do with a couple of folk singers?”

    The crowd reaction was as bad as we expected. After singing a few songs for the two tables up front (our friends) who appreciated us, we did a rendition of “Snoopy vs. the Red Baron” from our camp-counselor days and walked off the stage.

    I could swear I remember seeing a flying doghouse at the St. Louis model airplane club over forty years ago.
