Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

We still have time to mess this up!

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

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

The cruelty is the point; the law be damned.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

Celebrate the fucking wins.

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

If rights aren’t universal, they are privilege, not rights.

The republican ‘Pastor’ of the House is an odious authoritarian little creep.

Our messy unity will be our strength.

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

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

A snarling mass of vitriolic jackals

We are aware of all internet traditions.

The willow is too close to the house.

Not loving this new fraud based economy.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

The most dangerous place for a black man in America is in a white man’s imagination.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Oppose, oppose, oppose. do not congratulate. this is not business as usual.

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

Dear Washington Post, you are the darkness now.

    @Yutsano: It was this or send an email where every other word was fuck. I decided this was both more amusing and we needed a new open thread.

    As a Seattle-area resident, I keep hoping our next professional sports team calls itself the Sasquatches and adapts a logo like that one there.

    Is… is that you, BiloSagdiyev?

    Also, since this is an open thread, I just read a truly tragic (non-sarcastic) NYT article titled “The Three Kidnappings of N.: How Corporate Kidnapping Works.” I have no words for how scummy the mercenaries who partner with shitty parents are. Quote from the guy in the article who finally succeeded in kidnapping his daughter in Thailand and crossing the border into Laos: “I felt more at home there, or more comfortable there, because Laos had been colonized by the French, and it had done them a lot of good.” OK, if I didn’t already know which parent to trust in this story, I DEFINITELY know at that point.

    @Geoduck: That’s the original Colorado Avalanche shoulder patch/alternate logo. I liked it better than the new monotone variant of the state logo.

    @cain: That’s Ted Cassidy who played Lurch on the Addams Family. When Andre the Giant was not able to/was unwilling to reprise his role as Bigfoot on the Six Million Dollar Man, Cassidy took over the role for the two part episode Bigfoot Returns.

    I knew that face was familiar!! :-) But I mixed up the 80s shows.. although I could be forgiven for mixing them up I think! :-)

    @Doug R: But they’re in that Progressive commercial. Or maybe it’s Geico – no, they’re still doing the gecko. Pretty sure it’s Progressive.

    @Kent: That reminds me of an old New Yorker cartoon of two explorers being chased by a hungry Allosaur.  One of them says to the other “Now I know why everyone thinks they’re extinct!”

    @cain: As someone on the other thread wrote:  Everyone in the world started carrying networked cameras and like magic, all the UFOs disappeared and police brutality suddenly broke out everywhere.

    As did the Karens.

    BTW for those of you slumming in this comments section, Biden has pulled a surprise upset and taken the Democratic nomination.

    @Kent: So I have to ask*, are you saying that UFOs were preventing police brutality?

    * Ask again, since I also posted it in the other thread.

    Bigfoot gets around. Not just Progressive Insurance ads but several Jack Links Jerky commercials. We still love the old ‘herding cats’ ad from EDS, where I worked in DC.

    @Ken: I don’t know which company makes the ad, but the one where the young couple buys a house with an aunt problem. As somebody with a lot of aunts, that one hits home.
