Why are they playing outside when it’s raining? At least squeegee the court.

Robert Christgau: Preaching Agnosticism (with Laugh Lines)

I'm very sorry to report that the great alt-country singer-songwriter Todd Snider has died at 59 of undiagnosed walking pneumonia. I stick by what I wrote about him in 2012. www.robertchristgau.com/xg/bn/2012-0... Here's Rolling Stone's coverage. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Eggs are down 400%, so if you buy enough of them that will pay for the rest of your groceries many times over. Buy enough prescription drugs and you can afford a new boat.

As much Joe and Jane America like not starving, what they really yearn for above all else is a hangar-sized gold-plated royal ballroom.

It seems like there’s a lot of children’s graves in old cemeteries if kids didn’t used to get sick. Or was suicide popular among toddlers in the older days?

Same either way the β€œpress” and the β€œindependent judiciary,” which ontologically are the equivalent of Marvel superheroes.

They’d be fine with anything he did. He could abort baby Jesus at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier without losing a vote.

The individuals and institutions in a position to challenge Trump’s actions have effectively been rendered powerless by his charm, intelligence, and popularity with the American people.

Not doing things you’ll obviously have to apologize for never even enters the conversation.

There was a time in the not too distant past when expressing contempt for voters by literally shitting on them would have been considered a suboptimal message, electorally speaking.
