Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Washington Post’s Catch and Kill, not noticeably better than the Enquirer’s.

We know you aren’t a Democrat but since you seem confused let me help you.

There is no compromise when it comes to body autonomy. You either have it or you don’t.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Glad to see john eastman going through some things.

Motown is Joe-Town!

Fundamental belief of white supremacy: white people are presumed innocent, minorities are presumed guilty.

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

Republicans firmly believe having an abortion is a very personal, very private decision between a woman and J.D. Vance.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Never forget that he train is barreling down on Trump, even as he dances on the tracks.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

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

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

They were going to turn on one another at some point. It was inevitable.

I desperately hope that, yet again, I am wrong.

Be a traveling stable for those who can’t find room at the inn.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

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

The line between political reporting and fan fiction continues to blur.

White supremacy is terrorism.

    Aw man why did you have to show me that?  Now I’m half convinced that the maya empire  were started by a small group of 4channers that were sent back in time….

    @rikyrah:

    I just saw grandma’s airbnb in the last thread, so sweet.  My gram fixed a big pitcher of tea every morning that sat on the counter all day.  Unsweetened, brewed with mint.  So refreshing over a ton of ice on a hot day.

    I’m proud to say I know all the lyrics to Tom Paxton’s Marvelous Toy. My wife was not impressed. Paxton is under appreciated as a song writer IMHO.

    I’ve come to really like Rick Astley. He peaked early in life and seems resigned to the fact that he’ll never again reach the heights of his late ’80s career, but he seems to have a good sense of humour about it and is just kicking back and enjoying life. Other singers from the era (*cough* Morrissey *cough*) have turned into real dickheads.

    Dave Grohl seems to be a mensch too. Good on him.

    @Pete Downunder: My recollection is that he was huge in the 60’s and many of the big named folk artists (Kington Trio, PPM, Judy Collins) performed his songs. I don’t know if he is still appreciated today.

    @Kathleen:

    Remember him the same way. He seems a likely participant in those monstrous PBS pledge drives which always include Peter Paul and Mary (even if they’ve passed on).

    All aspects of this post are awesome.

    I now imagine some teenage noble saving up money to buy more figurines, maybe as a Mayan version of a Dungeon Master in Mayan D&D.

    And that Foo Fighters-Rick Astley video is exactly what I needed this morning. They all seem to be having a great time.

    @NotMax:

    I watched that sequence repeatedly. It was just so incredibly done.

    Actually, that entire movie was amazing. Excellent performances and some genuinely surreal visuals.

     

    And also extra helpings of Goth Pie.
