Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

John Fetterman: Too Manly for Pennsylvania.  Paid for by the Oz for Senator campaign.

Let us savor the impending downfall of lawless scoundrels who richly deserve the trouble barreling their way.

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

Hot air and ill-informed banter

If senate republicans had any shame, they’d die of it.

Let there be snark.

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

Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?

Let’s delete this post and never speak of this again.

A last alliance of elves and men. also pet photos.

After roe, women are no longer free.

Good lord, these people are nuts.

I see no possible difficulties whatsoever with this fool-proof plan.

Putin must be throwing ketchup at the walls.

Shallow, uninformed, and lacking identity

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

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

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

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

    I find 3rd place games to be weird. Think this might mean more to Morocco than to Croatia, but you never can really tell.

    @JML: I always think of it as the bronze medal game. Kind of like the Olympics, in a way, complete with corruption.

    @Alison Rose: I bet the Moroccans will be real heros back home. They represented their country well.

    Morrocco is an interesting country. It may be the most modern of all Arab countries. They are working on a high speed rail line as well as developing huge photovoltaic arrays that will export electricity to Europe.

    @phdesmond: Could be worse. When South Korea was still in the tournament, Greek commentators always referred to “Notia Korea”.

    “Notia” («νότια») means “south”, not “north”, in Greek. (“North” is “voreia” in Greek.)

    Back in the ancient times before the Super Bowl, there was a game like this in the NFL called the Playoff Bowl. Vince Lombardi called it a losers’ game; he coached it a couple times.

    @James E Powell: I actually went to one of those games at the Orange Bowl in Miami in the 60s. It was the year Tom Matte had to play QB for the Colts because of all the injuries. It wasn’t memorable except for that trivial fact.
