Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

Why did Dr. Oz lose? well, according to the exit polls, it’s because Fetterman won.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Infrastructure week. at last.

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

This fight is for everything.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

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

I like you, you’re my kind of trouble.

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

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

rich, arrogant assholes who equate luck with genius

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

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Insiders who complain to politico: please report to the white house office of shut the fuck up.

You can’t attract Republican voters. You can only out organize them.

People are complicated. Love is not.

You can’t love your country only when you win.

Hungary's virus immunity cards allowed 60,000 people to pack the stands for a Euros soccer match, making it the only one of 10 host nations to have a full house. But some fear the cards will be used to discriminate. https://t.co/s9LNNvKEmL

This is so delicious. I'm going to binge watch Russian TV just for the copious tears over the loss by this turgid, cynical Russian squad to the forces of the gay liberal near-death-surviving mini-state. https://t.co/uS4jzKG4WT

    How long before the Qunuch of Mar-a-Lago puts out a statement congratulating Russia on winning Euro 2020, because, after all, that’s what it says on Mr. Vladimir’s TV screen

    (And why on earth is this comment awaiting moderation?)

    Morning, jackals.  I miss following football.  When kids were young and playing we used to have a lot of fun watching these big events in the middle of the night with their friends and some of the parents.

    The futbol has been a nice distraction during the pandemic but now that people are crowding again I can’t help but think this is a bad idea. Recall that it was the nwsl who came back as the first major league who showed everyone how to do it right.

    I watched the Denmark v Russia game, and it was wonderful. The Danes played really well and just buried Russia with a flood of goals in the second half while waiting for the Dutch to wake up and knock a few past the Fins. If anyone deserved to jump into the Round of 16 it’s them. and they’re matched with Wales! Either Wales or Denmark is going to the quarters and I’m all about it.

    Also, Putin can suck it.

    With Mount out, what will Southgate’s reason for not playing Grealish be now?!? (I actually think this gets him a start, but I wouldn’t be shocked if Southgate finds another reason to not play him)

    Heh, a hot topic of conversation in my WeChat group of people under centralized quarantine is betting on Euro 2020. :-D

    Bored ladies asking the middle aged male football fanatics for pointers.

    I got to see Agentina when I woke in the middle of the night. Fun to watch that match! A more open style of play that just makes the game less boring. I didn’t manage to see Russia lose but their tears are still delish.

    So Mount and Chilwell (England) need to isolate because they played a match with Gilmour (Scot) but no other Scots need to isolate.  This makes no sense.

    No Mason Mount will be a blessing in disguise for England. He’s “coach candy” since he’s fast and aggressive on pressing, and coaches love his hustle, but he’s the master of completely awful shots when he should be passing to a better scorer on his team (of which there are probably a dozen on the national team).

    Also, go Scotland!
