So what's the best high-powered weapon that can be used to inflict maximum casualties should I purchase to start taking with me to my yoga classes, since I'm told that's the best way to protect myself from bad guys with guns? Asking for myself. Would also appreciate tips on how to achieve yoga poses while maintaining combat readiness. Thx.

Y’all want an old lady to show up? Is there anyone else representing the female Surly contingent?

“Y’all’s Cabal” New band name.

Twelve guitars, zero guns. What do I win? Oh yeah, fuck Ted Cruz. Really. Fuck that guy.

So one more thing though. I don’t get trolls. I don’t get the pleasure involved in saying things that are deliberately hurtful or distressful to others just to get a reaction. I dunno. Maybe they weren’t held enough as babies and so they crave attention any way they can get it. I try not to engage them and it is difficult but it’s worse trying to wade through pages of bullshit propagated by those who just want to watch the world burn.

Brisket. Maybe this will give you some perspective. I’m Jewish as you know so I have some personal stake in all this and I’m pretty fucking raw about it too. But I’d never wish harm on the family member of an asshole in an attempt to open their eyes to the danger of what they are supporting. It wouldn’t work anyway. You know as well as anyone that they deplorables are immune to facts, logic and reason. As much as we desperately want to pound it into them by whatever means. Ain’t happening I wonder if someone like me were to take a bullet for said family member. Not that I’m offering as a sort of grim experiment but seeing someone from an already oppressed demographic make the ultimate sacrifice to protect the loved one of an apologist might do it. Or not. But emphasizing common humanity when forcing someone to face the consequences of what they support can change hearts Or not. I think it’s time for my own sabbatical now. I just voted. And then I wept. Because I didn’t think it mattered.

Fuck the NRA. And fuck the president, both with the rusty end of an AR whatever. Because, I guaranfuckingtee you the synagogue did already have security. Probably armed. Now what? What's your fallback, fuckers? SWAT teams at all religious services? So the security can be more armed than the attackers? All because a bunch of spineless, cowardly, limp-dicked pussies, need so badly to have ALL their pew-pew toys to play with that they'd rather tolerate wholesale slaughter on a regular basis than make it more difficult to procure those kinds of weapons. I wish I had the opportunity to point and laugh at the crotch of every one of these fucking NRA apologists. They hide behind the second amendment (when it's convenient, of course, but not for the coloreds in Chicago, the president says let's stop and frisk them and let the police take the guns from anyone who isn't supposed to have them!) while they stomp right the fuck all over any amendments they find distasteful. This guy shot up a bris for God's sake. A ritual celebration of an 8-day old Jewish baby's birth. Is your safety and security from whatever it is you think is such an imminent threat to your existence worth the sacrifice those families made today? If so then you rank right up there with the biggest sniveling yellowbellies I've ever encountered. "I've got mine, fuck you" indeed. In this case it's "I've got my weapons, fuck you if your baby gets killed. Not my fault you don't go everywhere armed to the teeth to stop the bad guys with guns."

No, but the anti-Semitic canards that he's so

Oh, I know what comes next. I know very well. Not to go all Brisket here, and I certainly haven't been vocal about it on this site, but I have called every fucking step of the deterioration of this country since that asshole got elected. The only thing that surprises me is how fast it's all happening. I've promised my husband to wait until after the midterms before having my next meltdown but I'm not hopeful. And oh yeah, this synagogue in Pittsburgh is my SIL's home congregation and I am dreading like hell having to call her. Chances she knows the victims hover right around 100%.

You know sometimes when I want a laugh, I ask a Trumpkin to please explain to me the definition of one of the following concepts: "liberal", "communism", "conservative", "collusion", "socialism". Or where Venezuela is and why we don't want to turn into them. But not too often. Because the answer usually makes me more depressed than anything. Also, try asking one of them who Soros is. They don't know, except that he is someone who makes them very, very, very afraid.

In the meantime, I'll have to make due with my Beto yoga shirt. Let's see you try to steal this, asshole.

Some goddam asshole motherfucker took my rainbow Beto bumper sticker off my car. I hope whoever did it receives the full negative karma reserved for those who take rainbow Beto bumper sticker off cars. Fuck you, asshole.

You know what's really, really, really funny about that contention?

Meh. What's a spy among one's closes confidants and advisors, much less drivers, when one is high up in the federal government. What else ya got?

Client of mine was crowing yesterday about how much he liked Trump because he was a "hell of a dealmaker". Despite the fact said client is a pecan farmer whose business is destroyed this year because of tariffs. This client is an (allegedly recovered) alcoholic without two brain cells to rub together but still. I see Feinstein has moved into "lock her up" territory. Has anyone explained why she should be locked up? Other than the fact that she is a Democrat? And a female? Sorry, I'm out of the loop on that one.
-
This has been my fear all along. I mean, Trump is an absolute moron and he's got more than 1/3 of the populace. Get someone in there with half a brain and it could get really, really bad.
-
I am not gruntled. Maybe it's the eternal pessimist in me. But like Troph, this Kavanaugh thing has me rattled. I mean, how in the blue hell could that cluster have COST the Democrats? No don't answer that. I already know. I see it every day. It's kind of not fun walking around and knowing that statistically, 1/3 of everyone I see would consider me a liar, a con, a freak, a Soros shil, a loony, a liberal propagandist operative, and a fraud if I told my story. Anyway we'll find out in a few weeks. Operation M12/M12BH pop-up office is in full swing over here.

SiriusXM Deep Tracks is playing some pretty freaking awesome Native American and Native American-inspired tunes today. Check it oot.

How many will you have? Well this is going to be going on 9PM to 6PM five days a week, and they will be phone banking and organizing block walks. So I think it's going to be variable. Right now we just have an organizer here - apparently they have more offices than they do volunteers and it will take them a few days to catch up processing volunteers. If you know anyone who wants to work out of the 360/2222 area in Austin, ping me and we'll get you over here. Special bonus attraction, the office is my music room that's been temporarily converted. So if anyone is musically inclined we can jaw at my guitars and maybe drag out some of the amps. I wouldn't be opposed to a little after hours jamaroo if anyone is so inclined.

Heh yeah I get it, you guyssssssssssss.................

Beto popup office people are invading my home as we speak.

Was out last night wearing my Beto pin as usual, and had people come up to me as usual, wanting to know where I got it, how to get one, blah blah blah. The sentiment behind the conversations carried a lot more gravitas yesterday. Especially with the women. Several of them were crying when they told me that they too supported Beto and that they wanted to get involved in his campaign, and that the last week had been intolerable. I knew exactly what the deal was with them. I could see it in their eyes and I know they could see it in mine. They are galvanized. But here's my biggest concern: I am still in shock and disbelief that the Kavanaugh thing has given a bump to the Republicans. I don't know why I'm shocked. You'd think I would have learned by now, but I keep waiting for that one thing that is going to cause them to turn. I think it has finally sunk in emotionally as well as intellectually that 1/3 of our country would break the law, ignore the constitution, protest the holding of elections - whatever their orange cheetoh god commands. Because liberals and democrats are worse than Russians, they are worse than Nazis, they are worse than terrorists, they are worse than anyone. So if we have to keep kids in cages and lie about it and ignore the Supreme court, that's OK. If we have to keep women down by whatever means to protect our boys, then it's OK. Kick them out of their jobs if they are a threat to men. Mexicans are all rapists and leeches. No more Latinos in this country. Muslims are all terrorists. Can't be Muslim in the U.S. anymore. Two term limit gonna endanger making America great? Ignore that rule. I believe 100% that Trump's minions would support these positions. And get enough crooked and biased judges and crooked, power-hungry Congress members, and it's not so farfetched that these things could happen. Not tomorrow or next week or next year, but certainly within a generation, two at the outside. Couple these positions with the elimination of the social safety nets, which is the stated goal of many Republicans, and the continued gutting of the public school system, which is already happening, and the possibility that a great many citizens will not be able to afford healthcare, which they are trying like hell to make happen and who knows where we go from there. I think it's something of a coin toss between a new Facist regime or a new pre-revolution France. And oh yeah, there's the anti-Semitism part. I told M12 as far back as Trump's campaign that sooner or later it would come around to the Jews because it always does. Then of course on Friday we got the Trump Soros tweet and the Grassley reinforcement. Does Trump believe that shit about Soros? Maybe not, but that's not what matters. What matters is the neo-Nazis are now ecstatic that the President of the United States has validated one of their narratives about the wealthy left-wing Jews secretly pulling the strings behind the scenes. Yep, right on schedule. OK I kind of got off on a tangent there, but that's how important I think these midterms are. It's now or never. Our spare bedroom Beto popup office opens today, and we already have some campaign people here. They are all so young and confident. I feel very old and tired and jaded. I've never felt this threatened or helpless before in my entire life. Maybe some of it is the re-experiencing of what happened to me (it's in the Trump thread if you missed it, I'm not gonna repost it here). But I think most of it is not fear of the past but fear for the future. These next 31 days are, I think, going to tell us the direction our country is going to move for at least the next 50 years. And, like I always say when I go on a rant like this: I hope to hell I'm wrong. But to drag out another old tired analogy, we are the frogs in the pot of water that is just starting to warm. I don't want to be in it when it starts to boil.

Well this fucking sucks. The Kavanaugh thing appears to be doing the opposite of what we had hoped. "We're fucked" /Brisket https://www.npr.org/2018/10/03/654015874/poll-amid-kavanaugh-confirmation-battle-democratic-enthusiasm-edge-evaporates

Yeah, I was too busy screaming at him and telling him to go pound sand before I blocked him so I didn't follow up on that particular line of thought. I was just so shocked. I've known this guy for two decades and though we've always had different politics, we've remained good friends. Now it seems he's gone all in on the far right Fox/Rush/Hannity koolaid but in a mean way. Among other things he told me I needed a lobotomy. Nice, huh? And posted a picture of some women grafitti-ing Kavanaugh's house and held me responsible. Nice, huh? And you know what, "MERRICK GARLAND DIDN'T GET HIS HOUSE GRAFITTI-ED, SO HOW'S THAT FOR DOUBLE STANDARDS YA DIZZY BROAD, WHY ARE THE LIBTARDS SO RADICAL???" Ugh. Good riddance.

Oh, fuck the 80s, for lots of reasons. Something else that set me off - I posted my thoughts on the Kavanaugh testimony on my Facebook page and was immediately reminded why I stay away from politics in that cesspool. A guy I've been internet friends with since the AOL days immediately went off on me to the point that I unfriended and blocked him yesterday. One of the things he said that caught my eye was referring to Dr. Ford as "a so-called doctor, and I use that term loosely". I've seen that characterization a few other times in the last couple of days. I mean, what the fuck? Because she came forward with a story about sexual assault, that somehow negates her PhD from the University of Spoiled Children, and her research and publishing work at Stanford? Can someone smarter than me please explain? What does any of this have to do with her credentials? Are words like this meant to denigrate her further, to say that because she dared to be a slut at 15, and to ruin a choirboy's life during the pinnacle of his professional success, that she shouldn't be referred to by a title that she has earned by both education and profession? Seriously. I don't get this one. Someone please splain.
