Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Usually wrong but never in doubt

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

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

I didn’t have alien invasion on my 2023 BINGO card.

An almost top 10,000 blog!

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

They are lying in pursuit of an agenda.

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

He really is that stupid.

Joe Lieberman disappointingly reemerged to remind us that he’s still alive.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

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

No one could have predicted…

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Bad news for Ron DeSantis is great news for America.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

New McCarthy, same old McCarthyism.

A lot of Dems talk about what the media tells them to talk about. Not helpful.

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

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

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

    The look on the pups face always pleases me.  It’s somewhere between confusion and bewilderment.

    @kindness: it’s the expression plus the ears: “What have you done to me, and why have you done it??

    ETA: Traditions are important.  Seeing this is like coming home for the holidays.

    I think it would be good to start the tradition of celebrating the day by playing Mussorgsky’s “Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks in Their Shells.”  It’s eggcentric, eggxact, and altogether eggcelent.

    Like everybody else, I was waiting for the butter lamb reveal.  It never disappoints.  In fact, I’d say this year’s was even better than all the others.  I just hope Betty told it it was better, because if she didn’t it might get bitter.  And if it got sufficiently bitter, it might run away.  And then the next day there might be a headline:  “BETTY’S BETTER BITTER BUTTER LAMB ON THE LAM!”

    @PaulB: My J got roped into playing Rainbow Brite once and had to dress up in the costume for some appearance. She said the little girls were so excited to see her!!

    The GQPers would probably have her sent to Gitmo these days. :-/

    Cheers,

    We celebrated Easter yesterday with some good friends. I made rabbit cacciatore. It was delicious.

    It seemed like the right thing to do.

    As a Public Service Announcement,  Dachshund’s should never be around rabbits.  Not ever.   There will likely be a tragedy.

    A contrary view from the Home of the Orange Apron…

    So earlier this week I got a notification of a schedule change.  I had worked 15 minutes into my day off to finish up an order, no problem I get OT on that when I hit 40 hours for the week.  The schedule change changed my hours today from 8 hours to 6 hours, I was confused.  The Service Desk Lead, reminded me that today is Easter and the store closes 2 hours early.  So in observance of the “holiday” I’m taking a 2 hour pay cut and that 15 minutes of OT is now straight time.

    Fuck Easter.

    @Albatrossity: Exceptionally well played.

    And reminds me of the time when I was an asshole in my 20s having dinner w. my mom and some others at a restaurant in Berkeley.  I chose a rabbit appetizer and a venison main (it was that kind of place) and said, in a loud voice, “the perfect meal: Thumper followed by Bambi!”

    And then heard this little kid at the table immediately behind me wail “Mom!!!!…..”

    I felt like such a jerk.

    @Tom Levenson: Great story!

    We had rabbit at a restaurant in San Francisco (Perbacco) once, and it was so good we went back the next evening and had it again. It didn’t hurt that the place had a great wine list as well, so we could at least pair it with a different wine each evening!

    @Baud:

    I’m surprised Easter isn’t automatic overtime pay rate. That’s what they do at Trader Joe’s and some other places.

    I’m just having a usual Sunday hanging out at home. Well, not totally usual, since I have to give my dog her pills and her powder. She has a hot spot and is wearing a balloon collar, which is at least a step up from the cone. She’s gotten pretty good about taking her pills, but my current concern is that she’s drinking a lot of water and needs to go outside to pee frequently. Hoping it’s a medicine side effect and not a new medical issue.

    @JoyceH: Our Lil Bit had an autoimmune condition and they normally give prednisone for it but our vet recommended  Atopica even though it is for skin conditions and she lived 10 years on it.

    I can see the beginnings of PTSD in that dog’s eyes.  Amazing timing.
