I remember Matt from the early blogosphere and did not realize that he was actually pro-Love Canal

This is objectively true and requires no viewpoint diversity

OK but it would be even better if, on their way out, they told the president something like "your soul is an appalling dump heap overflowing with the most disgraceful assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable"

I did say it was the "single worst response" to #MeToo, fwiw

Legit

Oh I don't remember that. For the record, the only songs on which he totally metronomes are "Satisfaction" and "Jumping Jack Flash." Otherwise I think he's tasteful and always attuned to playing the song rather than playing fills for the sake of fills. Like Ringo. Chops aren't everything :)

!! Refresh my failing memory? I think the only thing I've said about Charlie Watts is that his work on slower songs like "Angie" is way underrated. (Quelle coincidence, I was listening to "Exile on Main St" last night while cooking and thoroughly enjoying the way he carries "Loving Cup.")

And let's not forget Sinema and Manchin. Biden's not responsible for their multiple varieties of f*ckery.

A lot of people don't know that the Heritage Foundation isn't actually a politically-minded organization but rather an association of guys who get together to watch sports.

The cows are not what they seem

IKR? That progressive blacklist maintained by the authoritarian left did SO much damage.

World record holder for single worst response to #MeToo is still David Bromwich imho. Harper's, 2020.

Oh no! Not the filibuster! That would so totally own the libs that we would never be unowned again!

They cheered even more ecstatically when New York and Los Angeles were blown to smithereens.

That's because those Republicans are still so angry that Obama spent $1.7 trillion of their tax dollars to build a blackety black black basketball court and to paint the entire White House black, just like George Clinton told him to do.

New MAGA WaPo coming down hard on those irresponsible Democrats and their costly Obamacare subsidies

This will be a thing! Next Wednesday, Oct 22. Title: "Is There a Higher Education Crisis?" Answer: oh hell yes

Fox News host throws ax, hits drummer Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

Following yesterday's spectacular success in his "grooming and violence" seminar, Secretary of Warcraft Hegseth plans a followup lecture to the brass. Part 1 will address communications security during military operations. Part 2 will be an extra manly demonstration of ax-throwing. tiny.cc/51bt001

Trans Portation is unconstitutional DEI because there are only two genders in the Constitution

Though to be serious for a moment it really was kind of genius of Hegseth to summon a thousand admirals and generals to come to Quantico so that he could lecture them in person on grooming standards and blame them for losing wars

A nice review from ALH! And what a surprise to hear good news about something these days.

Pete Hegseth orders all US military personnel to look exactly like Pete Hegseth

Promises to transform the troops "from woke to bloke"

Remember, according to the Supreme Court it's not bribery unless the money comes in an envelope marked "bribe," and for Ilya Shapiro it's not government suppression of speech unless there are actual government fingerprints on the suppression-of-speech memorandum

I am so old that I remember @jesseltaylor.bsky.social and Ezra from the early blogosphere days of Pandagon and let's just say that one of these guys turned out all right

This might be a good time to reflect on the fact that one reason the MAGA right hates liberals and progressives-- I mean, really really hates, with the blazing fire of a thousand AR-15s-- is that we think American gun culture is profoundly warped and very very dangerous. Dangerous to everyone.

You are going to learn that the lessons of this particular time for the country will depend on Americans themselves and what kind of a nation they want it to be. That is an insight you can get nowhere else and you should be grateful for its incisive insightfulness.

Followup: Brian Kilmeade acknowledges possible "unsanitary" consequences to mass killings of mentally unstable homeless people, proposes that they prepare mass graves for themselves before their elimination.

Anyone who criticizes him will be deported. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

You need to practice more civil discourse

Brian Kilmeade is a hero of free speech whose statue should be in the Capitol rotunda
