Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

The willow is too close to the house.

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

“Cheese and Kraken paired together for the appetizer trial.”

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

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

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.

Thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.

There are consequences to being an arrogant, sullen prick.

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

People are complicated. Love is not.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

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

In short, I come down firmly on all sides of the issue.

Putin dreamed of ending NATO, and now it’s Finnish-ed.

… riddled with inexplicable and elementary errors of law and fact

So it was an October Surprise A Day, like an Advent calendar but for crime.

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

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

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

Accountability, motherfuckers.

No Justins, No Peace

He really is that stupid.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It is irresponsible not to.

Since we have not had an appearance from THE Mr. Frog lately, I thought we might enjoy seeing a Mr. Frog.

He lived, with many of his kindred, in our Water Garden/Fish Pond. This is how it looked in the early years. As we got older and less able to maintain and repair it, it never looked quite this good again. Charlie the cat and Zeppelin the dog used to join us for cocktails on the patio and to feed the fish. They were just dime store gold fish, but they prospered in the pond. They even survived Wisconsin winters, thanks to a stock tank heater from Fleet Farm.

    Did he never acquire a companion? Other than the cat and goldfish, that is.​

    In the last pic, I halfway expect him to throw on a top hat and cane and start the ol’ softshoe to “Hello My Ragtime Gal”!

    Whatever happened to all the Mr. Frog pictures? Did John lose interest in the idea?

    @Elma: Happy to accommodate your schedule, and I will look forward to photos of lush tropical places.

    You can have make it a series if that suits you.  A series  3 or a series of 5 is best because we can have a whole week in some other wonderland.

    That swimming morphing giant tadpole was amazing, thanks for posting that link. I wonder how big it was in real life…

    Mr Frog is great too, very photogenic! Thanks for the good news post — we needed it!
