Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Conservatism: there are some people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

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

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Accused of treason; bitches about the ratings. I am in awe.

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

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

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

After roe, women are no longer free.

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

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

Peak wingnut was a lie.

I did not have this on my fuck 2022 bingo card.

Republican obstruction dressed up as bipartisanship. Again.

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

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. let’s win this.

“Squeaker” McCarthy

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

A Senator Walker would be an insult to the state and the nation.

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

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Americans barely caring about Afghanistan is so last month.

    Naw, they just gamed the system by releasing their entry late in the year, so it was the only thing people remembered. Same as the studios do every year with their Oscar bait.

    Somehow I doubt they will be able to keep the definition of “buttering the cat” to be limited only to “ableist” help, but I wish them luck.

    I have gotten so much JOY from this account. The original piece made me weep with laughter, and I have been loving all of the subsequent bits; I thought the disability piece was brilliant. So much love and acceptance.

    @debbie: I just read some of the recap, and if Pam is a real person, she’s an idiot.  And she can report me to HR for thinking she’s an idiot.

    @guachi: the Jorts/Jean/Pam saga originated on the AITA subreddit. So there’s a pretty good chance you encountered it there or you were linked to the Reddit thread somewhere.

    @WereBear: My paternal grandparents had a Simon back in the 60’s that I called Simon the Likeable because you know why?. Jorts is absolutely of that line of gentle, well meaning souls.

    I most be the only person in the Western world who finds no discernible humor in this saga. Just an unfunny story and a bunch of people trying way too hard to get a free ride off the humor they see in it.

    No, you’re not. I’ve stridently avoided it because … cats. Am aware of only vague points of reference to it (and that’s more than quite enough) gleaned by what’s been dropped here.

    Presume we’ll know it’s passed its sell-by date when “skullbuttering a kitten” shows up as a rotating tag.

    @Gin & Tonic: I thought it was just one of the increasing number of things about which I am out of step with the majority of regulars here. I started to read the original story and just got bored

    Am I the only person in the mapped universe who had no idea who this “Jorts” character was? Although suddenly I saw his name everywhere. (thanks, AL, for the primer)
