Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Polls are now a reliable indicator of what corporate Republicans want us to think.

The fight for our country is always worth it. ~Kamala Harris

The republican caucus is covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

Damn right I heard that as a threat.

Stop using mental illness to avoid talking about armed white supremacy.

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

You cannot shame the shameless.

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

They want us to be overwhelmed and exhausted. Focus. Resist. Oppose.

It’s a good piece. click on over. but then come back!!

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

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

The revolution will be supervised.

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

‘Museums aren’t America’s attic for its racist shit.’

The real work of an opposition party is to oppose.

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

Impressively dumb. Congratulations.

My years-long effort to drive family and friends away has really paid off this year.

Let there be snark.

Nothing worth doing is easy.

President Musk and Trump are both poorly raised, coddled 8 year old boys.

    So, so pretty.  There is a road here in Memphis lined with cherry trees, of course it’s named Cherry Road.  One year I went to see the blossoms, and the sky was gray, overcast.  The pink blossoms against the gray were stunning, and there were a lot of people out taking photos.

    Beautiful pictures!

    But I can’t seem to embiggen them on my phone (Android, Samsung browser). Is that a me thing or a post thing?

    @Steeplejack:

    I have an Android and use whatever browser came with it, I guess Samsung, and I could embiggen just fine.

    Eta>  I just checked, I can still embiggen.

    @OzarkHillbilly: @Baud:

    The On the Road submission form puts the images in the media library in such a way that they can’t be embiggened.

    That’s why Albatrossity adds links in his OTR posts to let you see a bigger version elsewhere.

    When we have the next round of site updates, this about the OTR form is definitely on the list.

    Beautiful photos. Are these ornamental trees, or do they bear edible fruit? Here in San Jose, the folks selling Bings from their truck appeared for the first time yesterday. The Rainier cherries should appear in another couple of weeks.

    @eclare: I have no clue, unless you are on a phone and the phone lets you look close-up by doing a hand gesture on the phone?

    If it let’s you embiggen, it shows you the photo on page with nothing else.  Is that what it’s doing you when you say you can embiggen?

    @Origuy: Do these cherry trees bear fruit ?  The ones in Branch Brook Park – I do not know.  Some of the ones in my neighborhood do, but methinks most of that fruit feeds the local birds.
