Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

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

fuckem (in honor of the late great efgoldman)

Do not shrug your shoulders and accept the normalization of untruths.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Human rights are not a matter of opinion!

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

There are some who say that there are too many strawmen arguments on this blog.

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

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

The lights are all blinking red.

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

All hail the time of the bunny!

Is trump is trying to break black America over his knee? signs point to ‘yes’.

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

We will not go back.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

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

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

He really is that stupid.

Kaddish, for a Monday Night Ravens Game

Prepare the first paper cup of Yuengling.

The first question:

Why is this game unlike other games?

Answer: On this game, unlike all other games, the Steelers have the opportunity to humiliate the Ravens, the true successor to the hated Cleveland Browns, before an appreciative home crowd.

Second question:

Why on this night, unlike all other nights, do we root for a total and humiliating rout, when on other nights a dignified victory will suffice?

Answer: Because the Ravens are a bunch of undisciplined criminals who can’t go five plays without some sort of foul. And because the Cowboys aren’t in our division.

Drink the first Yuengling and sing the superbowl song.

***

Off to enjoy the game. I would be getting pissed out of my skull enjoying the pre-game atmosphere but I had to teach.

    I’ve lurked here forever and Tim, you’ve brought out my first post to sing the praises of Yuengling. Maybe I hold some special reverence for this fine brew because it was the beer of my collegiate formulative drinking years, but for $5/6-pack it just dosen’t get any better. I welcome all challengers.

    Yuengling and Ravens hating. Two of my favorite pastimes.
