Wade Means

This is what you get from a twenty-two-year-old quarterback making his fifth career start. There’ll be ups and downs, and oftentimes more of the latter.
The kid has physical gifts and mental toughness, but also a lack of experience and an inaccurate arm.
It’ll play out over the next couple years.

This is our “I don’t want to get out of bed yet” face.

I mean, who among us hasn’t done this at eleven in the evening?

Breaking: In 6-3 decision, SCOTUS allows President to issue pardons for state crimes.
(Coming soon to a news outlet near you.)

Not for me. The Vikes’ jerseys in 1976 were pretty meh. I much prefer the jersey from the ‘00s.

The unusual autumn weather has made our front-yard maple tree stunningly gorgeous this year.
Even when the world is shit - ESPECIALLY when the world is shit - we need to appreciate the beauty around us.

Looked a lot like OPI to me…

Just went on Facebook for the first time in a while, and it, if nothing else, is definitely a useful tool for determining which of one’s old schoolmates are unrepentant racists.

It’s always interesting to see content from the Bulwark people. They’re all essentially saying, “We helped to create the current crisis; now listen to us tell you how bad the thing we did is, but don’t blame us for doing it.”

Their capacity to speak obvious untruths without shame or hesitation is… extraordinary.

My wife and I spent several days in London on holiday last year, and not once did we demand to know the religious beliefs of any of the people we encountered.
We just enjoyed the cosmopolitan vibe of a great city.

If one accepts that the Constitution is no longer in effect, then, sure, I guess there’s a case.

As a person who relies upon his CDL to make a living, I can confirm that Noem can fuck all the way off.

What a crazy coincidence!

One interesting facet of the shitbombing video is that, in the rich fantasy world of MAGA, a man who can’t even drive a car somehow is now able to operate a jet aircraft with pinpoint precision.

Terminally adorable.

In the same way that Dear Leader is a trucker.

…and that their Dear Leader is actually a criminal. Like, an embezzling-from-charities, cheating-on-elections, insurrection-inciting criminal.

The White House in ruins. Northern cities occupied. The Federal Government no longer operating. People of color living in fear.

This is like an alternate history where the Confederacy won.

(Or it’s just our sad reality in which the nation somehow elected a neo-Confederate to be President.)

A Confederate’s dream come true.

If we had an actual, functioning FBI, I might actually believe there’s some validity to the charges.

A person told me recently that they don’t like the Beatles, and I don’t know what I’m supposed to do with that. How can I take anything else they might say seriously?
It’s like saying, “I don’t like the sun. Photosynthesis is totally overrated.”

So Trump wants to shit all over the American people. Tell me something I don’t know.

No one should be above the law or the Constitution.

Mister Trump has repeatedly violated both and continues to do so.

That’s why we protest today.

Simple, really.

“Donald the Dove.”

‘I love Hitler’: Leaked messages expose Young Republicans’ racist chat Thousands of private messages reveal young GOP leaders joking about gas chambers, slavery and rape.

This still shocks the conscience, even though it’s just a continuation of the trajectory that the GOP has followed since the party/ideological realignment of the 1960s.
When I was a kid, the unreconstructed racists were still considered fringe. But over these sixty years, they’ve been mainstreamed

Republican Governors Eagerly Join Trump’s Military Campaign Against Blue Cities An Intercept analysis finds nearly every Republican governor has deployed National Guard members to aid Trump’s domestic military agenda.

It cannot be overstated, the extent to which the GOP has become not merely anti-democracy but anti-American.
Red states seemingly desire to punish their countrymen for the crime of existing.

Well… maybe Nixon.

The end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency is coming. And it will not be pretty.

Extrajudicial killings in international waters is the very definition of peace.
