Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

If you are still in the gop, you are either an extremist yourself, or in bed with those who are.

Mediocre white men think RFK Jr’s pathetic midlife crisis is inspirational. The bar is set so low for them, it’s subterranean.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

Fear or fury? The choice is ours.

Sometimes the world just tells you your cat is here.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.

Come on, man.

Fear and negativity are contagious, but so is courage!

The way to stop violence is to stop manufacturing the hatred that fuels it.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Norah Who?

I didn’t watch much of the Grammy show last night, but not because I was protesting it or afraid of what a few limousine liberals might have to say about Iraq. Basically, I didn’t watch because they never really nominate or reward the type of music I enjoy. I read the results with interest wondering, who the hell buys all this stuff. One strong reaction I do have after reading the results:

Norah Who?

I know I am profoundly uncool, but I have never heard of Norah Jones before yesterday. I am unsure how Bruce Springsteen did not win- I am even more confused how Nelly and Eminem were snubbed. When I listen to the radio, it is usually NPR, talk radio, or ESPN Sports radio- so I am not a music expert when it comes to new music. I can tell you one thing though- when I went to a bar, when I went to a clothing store, when I was in a friend’s car, or at the lake, I know what I was hearing- people were playing Nelly and Eminem. Not Norah Jones.

Is it possible that the Grammy voters are more out of touch than I am?
