Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Come on, media. you have one job. start doing it.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

We are builders in a constant struggle with destroyers. keep building.

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

The next time the wall street journal editorial board speaks the truth will be the first.

Wait, what?

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Too little, too late, ftfnyt. fuck all the way off.

Republicans do not trust women.

We still have time to mess this up!

Motto for the House: Flip 5 and lose none.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

Make the republican party small enough to drown in a bathtub.

They are not red states to be hated; they are voter suppression states to be fixed.

I really should read my own blog.

Dear legacy media: you are not here to influence outcomes and policies you find desirable.

Republican speaker of the house Mike Johnson is the bland and smiling face of evil.

And now I have baud making fun of me. this day can’t get worse.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

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

Republicans: “Abortion is murder but you can take a bus to get one.” Easy peasy.

    @Maude: We’ve been relatively lucky weatherwise up here in the rightmost corner — it’s only in the mid-80s now, which would be fine if the humidity percentage wasn’t almost identical!

    OY!

    I’m so sick of all of this election coverage on TV!

    My Mom asked me this morning, what was in the news?

    I said, “Nothing, it’s a Presidential election year! The only things that can possibly get them off that subject would be if the moon landed in an ocean, or a young white woman was missing.”

    The moon would get one day’s coverage.

    The missing white woman would be covered for at least a week.

    @JPL: That is the only negative aspect of this. They know something is up with all the luggage and activity and they are playing me like a violin!

    Looking for a new laptop after my Dell 1530 crapped out on me. 7 yo and I never had a problem, until it didn’t work.

    So I went to Apple and looked at the new Macbook Pro 15 inchers. Wow. Just wow. 1799 or 2499. For a fucking laptop.

    I only put 900 down when I bought my car. They are damn nice, but I am now shocked that so many of my classmates at college have Macbooks. That was last semester, but day-yum!

    @Hal:
    A Lenovo is good. Reliable. I’d go for a refurbished.
    I have a Sony Vaio that I have loaned out. It is old, I worked on it’ It’s running ZP and it isn’t having problems.
    I’ve managed Lenovos and I like them.
    They were used.

    Not sure what the temperature was when I went out earlier but it was close, not sticky close but stuffy feeling. Not nice. I was thinking of going to the movies but I’m not sure now. I’d like it to rain and freshen the air.

    @Hal: Check out the Air. I’ve had mine almost two years and missed the DVD drive about twice. But everybody that sees it is amazed that the thin tiny light thing is an actual computer.

    Going to grill some fine looking ribeyes and steam some fresh corn on the cob, then some Braves baseball. Too damn hot to do much of anything else.

    We’re headed to Panama City Beach for vacation in late August and I’m trying not to get overexcited about the opportunity to eat all the oysters on the half shell.

    @Raven: Actually, I can’t believe I’m willingly going to PCB. I grew up on the gulf near Sarasota; as far as we were concerned, the Panhandle was the left armpit of FLA (with Daytona being the right). But my husband loves it there.

    hallelujah It is raining. Pop up showers have been nearby all week but kept missing my area. It might only be a ten minute shower but it’s still rain. Happy plants!
