Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

If ‘weird’ was the finish line, they ran through the tape and kept running.

Those who are easily outraged are easily manipulated.

When I was faster i was always behind.

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

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

Trump should be leading, not lying.

We are aware of all internet traditions.

Be a wild strawberry.

Fight them, without becoming them!

The “burn-it-down” people are good with that until they become part of the kindling.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

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

There are times when telling just part of the truth is effectively a lie.

“Loving your country does not mean lying about its history.”

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

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

They traffic in fear. it is their only currency. if we are fearful, they are winning.

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

The Supreme Court cannot be allowed to become the ultimate, unaccountable arbiter of everything.

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

The rest of the comments were smacking Boebert like she was a piñata.

    Over at LG&M, commenter littlegreen said:

    A key action item is to get the 400K registered Haitian voters in Florida to vote for Harris and against Rick Scott.

    How can we help this happen? Is giving money to Debbie Mucarsel-Powell the best way?

    Does anybody have any ideas on this?  I wonder how they voted last time around, too.

    We are actually giving away some quilts, because we have too many of them, but when I saw this one, I was so taken by it that I made sure my 4D contribution went through the quilt raffle.  Had I won, I would be in trouble with my wife, since I was the one who insisted in downsizing…

    Congratulations Memory Pallas.  Is your nym a clever take on an ancient mnemonic system, among other things?  I love it!

    @danielx:

    Now that’s a smart cat. Also a political one but still – a smart cat.

    I would suggest to the cat’s owner that if djt ever shows up to your front door, especially if he’s asking for money, you know cup out and all that, that you make sure the cat is somewhere they can’t get to that open door. He is after all a past president……. Damn that is a very hard sentence to write, and even harder to actually think that this country somehow elected him to run the place, when even cats hate him.

    I contributed but I didn’t enter. That quilt is gorgeous and my cats and dog would have destroyed it whether it was on a bed or hanging on the wall.
