Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Republicans: slavery is when you own me. freedom is when I own you.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Trump should be leading, not lying.

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.

They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

If America since Jan 2025 hasn’t broken your heart, you haven’t loved her enough.

Incompetence, fear, or corruption? why not all three?

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.

Let’s not be the monsters we hate.

A sufficient plurality of insane, greedy people can tank any democratic system ever devised, apparently.

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

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

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

“They all knew.”

These days, even the boring Republicans are nuts.

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

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

A thin legal pretext to veneer over their personal religious and political desires.

They don’t have outfits that big. nor codpieces that small.

Museums are not America’s attic for its racist shit.

    Heh. Only Cole would bigfoot two front page posts in a row, and of course one of them is himself.

    Anyway, rest up Randinho!

    Yikes.  Rest well and heal up, Randinho.

    And you can check out the “mysteries” sidebar when you’re in search of a good novel or show to get you through recovery.

    Get well soon, Randinho. I miss seeing you here, especially now that The Best Football Team In The World is stomping on the rest of the English Premier League.

    Best wishes for a successful recovery, Randhino.  I’m six weeks out from a hip replacement as the top of my femur decided to dissolve, so I’ll just add to the chorus of rest, do exactly what your dr. says,  and then PT are your friends.

    Sorry to hear about your fall. Rest up and heal, then hurry back. We could use you around here.

    Ouch indeed! And Cheryl said everything I was going to say. Listen to your doctors! And be diligent in pt.

    But that’s for later. Right now, rest and heal.

    I would say “you’ll never walk alone” but your leg an’ stuff.

    Get better and all the best in your recovery!

    Glad to hear from you, sorry it isn’t better news.

    Many friends have had hip replacement and similar work done, so it isn’t cutting edge work any more… still, you will have to work hard or your physical therapists will complain and whimper, and you DON’T WANT THAT!!!

    Keep them happy, work hard, keep in touch, please.

    Hell, I’ve had both shoulders replaced, and a ‘scope on my knee, so I know from orthopedic surgeons! It will all work out…

    In general some of these people are presenting a little too much vote for me and a bit too little dump Trump for XXXX reasons.

    That had to be some fall!  So sorry to hear you needed surgery to set the leg, though that usually happens when you break a major bone (I snapped my ulna falling off a horse).  Best wishes for a full recovery – and yes, do what the PT tells you!  It makes a huge difference!

    Best wishes and best of luck.

    Oh no! Sorry to hear this, Randinho, and get well soon. I’ve always enjoyed your posts – hope there are lots of exciting matches to distract you while you recover.

    New York City is already doing the pre-K thing. Thanks Democratic Mayor deBlasio. No thanks to you, previous mayor Bloomberg who never mentioned it in three terms.

    If you think Biden is the one, just vote for Klobuchar. Same thing, more competent, less stumbly speaking, and funnier. Note: Biden’s $42,000 pay in 1972 would be $262,601.17 today.

    @J R in WV:

    or your physical therapists will complain and whimper

    Heh. I can guarantee you in my long physio career I have yet to have any of my therapists cry and whimper.

    Where is Leto when I need him? :P

    Thanks for the good wishes everyone. I am a six day a week regular gym attender so the PT probably won’t be too much of an issue.

    Thanks again!
