  1. It’s a political miscalculus by a guy who couldn’t do simple math.
  2. I hope this doesn’t hurt Biden’s chances in Alabama.
  3. That’s the sorta genius who wears a Female Body Inspector shirt and feels clever.
  4. Feinstein proves that losing institutional knowledge can be a risk of choosing aged incumbents, too. She looks lost. The institution is on the ropes and, if not new blood, needs some recently-AARP-eligible blood.
  5. I see BM as more of a poodle anyway (as opposed to Johnny Football who is clearly a a meth lab).
  6. The world needs ditch diggers too.
  7. Possibly complaints about all the “like a dog” pejoratives spewed from Trump’s big mouth. That dog is a better American than Trump will ever be, and he can lick his own balls. The dog, I mean.
  8. I was astonished how fairly Texags posters assessed the situation. Well, for 3 posts anyway, until resident genius Rapier108 piped up and was generously repped for it.
  9. RFK Jr has no chance of winning, clearly. TBD whether he’s utterly insane without greater strategic designs or utterly insane & auditioning to be Trump’s running mate.
  10. It’s a regular reverse Grapes of Wrath out there on the highways. Emaciated, dejected Californians migrating to Arkansas in hope of, uhh ?
  11. Not so fast! Vegans are evolving too. In some circles, real cheese from a consensually milked cow is permitted.
  12. Thank God we didn’t have to add another to the ‘Price of Freedom’ tally. Yea!
  13. It’s early so no idea yet if this qualifies as a mass shooting, but it appears my number was called in today’s edition of the daily American gun violence lottery. My daughter is there working right now. I learned about it when she texted me a bit ago. Legacy Portland Hospital on Lockdown after Shooting
  14. I am old enough to remember when Texas ostensibly prided itself on being known for friendliness and a live and let live ethos. That Texas is dead.
  15. Counting on Google search and Twitter to be the guardrails for democracy strikes me as laughably naive. This is a multi pronged evil effort, after all. Dumbing of the populace must be ahead of schedule based on anecdotal reports. It’s enhanced by making valid info (truth) tougher to obtain and handicapping the development of critical thinking when ambiguity is encountered (see school board & college curriculum efforts). Combine that with politicization of all aspects of the public sphere, a purposeful demonization of trusted news sources, a dash of confirmation bias, and you have generations starting not to trust what they read or personally observe. Sure the truth is still out there on the inter webs somewhere. People know how to find it. The issue, I suspect, is that they won’t want to find it, and Republicans are doing all they can to facilitate that ignorance. Or just fucking re-read 1984.
  16. The 2nd guy has some Figuerelli in him.
  17. If the ‘passage of time changing what offends people and altering what’s uttered in the public sphere’ is still vexing you, imagine SNL running this skit today. Personally, I’m offended by the lack of quality average white guy slurs. Cracker, ofay, peckerwood none of it lands.
  18. It’s hard not to view potential 5 star signees with very tempered excitement given our experience this year. I’m starting to enjoy the relative finality of a transfer signee’s announcement as much or more.
  19. It looks like the car Homer designed that bankrupted his brother’s car company. All it needs is rally stripes.
