Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

“What are Republicans afraid of?” Everything.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

There are more Russians standing up to Putin than Republicans.

Accountability, motherfuckers.

This must be what justice looks like, not vengeful, just peaceful exuberance.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

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

Many life forms that would benefit from greater intelligence, sadly, do not have it.

Second rate reporter says what?

the 10% who apparently lack object permanence

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

You’re just a puppy masquerading as an old coot.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

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

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

In my day, never was longer.

Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.

The media handbook says “controversial” is the most negative description that can be used for a Republican.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

He seems like a smart guy, but JFC, what a dick!

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you do not.

    I would love to meet Henry. His face is so adorable and he looks ultimately pettable.

    WaterGirl, did you bake your Arraignment/Birthday cake for tomorrow?

    My hips feel painfully dislocated looking at Henry’s splay.

    I see a lotta doggos in my ‘hood.  I’m still wearing a mask in foreign buildings, but I think it’s high time I started asking their owners if I could pet ’em.  B/c they’re all so doggone *cute*.

    The consensus on the Philadelphia meetup is converging on The Abbaye this Thursday, 15 June 2023, at around 6:30p Eastern (blog) time. A link:

    The Abbaye, Northern Liberties, Philadelphia

    We’ll promptly announce any further changes, but at this point, we’ll probably book a table for at least 8 people or so. Come one, come all — the more, the merrier!

    @Jackie: I have not!

    Too busy catching up on work to have thought about it.  Also, I feel less celebrate-y now that Cannon has been assigned to the case.

    But he’s still being indicted and it will still be my birthday, so I will *have to make southern cobbler (with sour cherries) in the morning!

    *Not really a burden to make yummy cherry cobbler!

    Apparently talking to myself….. *6 comments in a row for me, possibly a personal best!  (worst?)

    Goodnight everyone!

    edit: now 7!

    @WaterGirl: We will not let Cannon ruin our day(s)! My BD follows yours😊

    Today’s comments had a lot of negativity/gloom and doom. I ignored. In Jack Smith we trust!

    @Jackie: i think everybody’s been burned by Fitzmas and Mueller so we are wary in putting a lot of trust in TFG getting what he deserves.

    @Leto: Okay now I’m jealous! But having met Suzanne previously y’all are in for a treat. She’s an absolute delight.

    @karen marie: i have a feeling there’s a lot of people he’s screwed over the years who are going to enjoy watching him go through this. All the lawyers he screwed and all the subcontractors and vendors he stiffed. This guy caused people to go out of business.

    @WaterGirl: Oooh! What is a southern cobbler? I have some sour cherries from last year in the freezer, and I could make a cobbler with them.

    We’re going to fly the flag tomorrow in honor of the day.

    @opiejeanne:

    Perfect about the flag, it’s great not to have to fly it upside down!

    I am from the south, and I have no idea what Southern cobbler is.  My mom just made cobbler.
