Happy Hour

Get happy.

Forward Motion

Better than doing nothing!

Special counsel Jack Smith has subpoenaed local officials in Arizona, Michigan and Wisconsin — three states that were central to former president Donald Trump’s failed plan to stay in power following the 2020 election — for any and all communications with Trump, his campaign and a long list of aides and allies.

Assholes

The Supremos with their asskissers in "legal journalism" managed to make themselves into legends, somehow above it all. Alito's just a dumbass "Fox News Uncle."

Everybody with a reasonable understanding of how these conservatives operate knows that this case will come down 6-3 on the side of Smith and bigotry. There’s no drama here. Conservatives accepted Smith and ADF’s framing of the case as one about message discrimination before they even got into the courtroom. The question, as always these days, is not what the conservatives will do, but how far they’ll go. There are tons of businesses that would like to discriminate against people based on their race, gender, or sexual orientation. Conservatives can effectively revert public accommodations laws back to the Jim Crow era simply by giving those business owners a way to argue that denial of services is really about free speech.

Lunch

Once again.

Walker

Obviously there are more people deserving of my sympathy - he does not seem like a great guy! - but he's also obviously not quite all there and it is a bit sad. Could never really bring myself to pile on.

Oh, Elon

One of his games is to try to get ahead of any bad news. This is why he mentioned his brain thing the other day.

Dec 5 (Reuters) - Elon Musk’s Neuralink, a medical device company, is under federal investigation for potential animal-welfare violations amid internal staff complaints that its animal testing is being rushed, causing needless suffering and deaths, according to documents reviewed by Reuters and sources familiar with the investigation and company operations.

Election Day

Will Schumer be able to get judges through faster?

Morning

Yet again.

Monday Night

Rock on.

Happy Hour

Be happy

TERF

Regrets, I have a few.

Trying to claim that there is zero risk of overly aggressive treatment in the gender dysphoria space is not just going to be tenable; read about any other area of the American health care system. https://t.co/VLLqpTMkwf

Lunch

Eat

Trump Jesus

Every DC political reporter maintained the fiction that every young conservative was a virgin.

Faith

 I used to be a bit more sympathetic to "Faith" arguments, but no, you're just an asshole.

Morning

Once again

Vacation Is All I Ever Wanted

I am so tired.

Sunday Morning

Sunday Funday.

I hate that Lonnie is the Main Character after years of trying to tell you.

Saturday Night

Rock on.

A Lot To Lose

Billionaires really don't have to worry about a few million so it is bizarre that they do. Not worrying about money is why I want to be "rich"!

There's A Fine Line Between Clever And Stupid

Too much fucking perspective.

Liz Truss took a "Spinal Tap approach" to government, with the volume turned up to 11, her former chief speechwriter has told the BBC.
