Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Hi god, it’s us. Thanks a heap, you’re having a great week and it’s only Thursday!

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

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

Maybe you would prefer that we take Joelle’s side in ALL CAPS?

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

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

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

Dead end MAGA boomers crying about Talyor Swift being a Dem is my kind of music. Turn it up.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Let’s bury these fuckers at the polls 2 years from now.

I did not have this on my fuck 2024 bingo card.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

Let me file that under fuck it.

I might just take the rest of the day off and do even more nothing than usual.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

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

No offense, but this thread hasn’t been about you for quite a while.

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

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

No one could have predicted…

Open Thread: Possible NYC Meet-Up?

This post is in: , ,

Query from faithful commentor NotMax:

Checking on interest in a NYC area meet-up.

Shall be arriving in the area July 23, leaving August 7. Only date I
know of at this point which might be iffy is the 28th.

Would be satisfied with the same spot as last year as it is convenient to all mass transit, but certainly not married to the idea.

Possible dates, time and location all subject to jackal recommendations, consensus and convenience; please, please chime in.

Lurkers, friends & companions welcome, as always. Leave a comment, or email me and I’ll forward your message to NotMax.

    I’m in. Had a great time last year. Tir Na Nog is exceedingly convenient for me (in fact, I just met a friend there yesterday), but whatever works for people.

    I wish I lived closer or could afford a NYC trip this summer. Would be so great to meet Notmax.

    @satby: Hello there, fellow Jackals !

    Am feeling pretty well, trying to get out and walk on nice days, not online earlier because was Doing Something Else. Would feel lots better if ’tweren’t for this *&^^%$#@$%^#&*# pollen.

    Looking forward to seeing y’all again!

    Note that July 26th is the birthday of the US Post Office, George Bernard Shaw, Aldous Huxley, Mick Jagger, and myself ;-)

    I’m always up for something if I’m around (may need to travel for work at some point, but that’s a bit up in the air, so obviously don’t plan around me!)
