Given the location, I am not at all surprised that they knew a klan song. I’m betting they’ve got more than a few in their repertoire.

Shockingly, there are many parts of Idaho that contain appallingly shitty people. This is one of them.

Definitely, it adds that little extra level of disrespect- not only do they want their specific holiday acknowledged, they don’t care enough about anyone else’s to know when it occurs. And yet, we all somehow keep track of the 25th of December.

I respond those snide fuckers with “Merry Christmahanukkwanzaa to you too.” It doesn’t cover every holiday like good old “Happy Holidays,” but it gets the damned point across and generates some great bewildered faces.

That scaleworm looks like a tongue.

Technically, I think it was fake news created by the Russians.

I hate everything.

I’m tired of his tweets being given any kind of legitimacy- he could tweet anything, any of us could. It’s the digital equivalent of sticky notes on a wall. The freaking president-elect should have to give real statements, ones he can be properly called out on. Can you imagine the avalanche of right-wing shit if Obama…

To be fair, there have been a number of protests in SLC, and it’s a pretty liberal place. If they want a real challenge, try Provo.

I just nearly choked to death at my desk trying not to laugh. Thank you.

Well yes, that’s true. I meant the general smokiness that just hangs in the air for several months.

Yep. In high school, we used to drive out to fires with a case of beer and watch them burn at night. Beautiful, but horrible. And a really dumb thing to do, if the wind changes direction.

In the Rocky Mountains, summer is simply “fire season.” You get used to the smoke.

That musical was awful and unnecessary. We referred to it as “Sutton Foster’s obligatory ASP-blackmail paycheck.” So stupid.

The pain really wasn’t bad at all. A few minutes of really unfortunate discomfort, and then bad cramps for about a day. I’ve had menses that were more painful than this was.

This is the worst. She is one of my absolute heroes. How are we supposed to get through what’s coming without her?

Another good one.

I’ve seen a few people floating Kamala Harris as a suggestion for 2020. I’d vote for her.

I was a kid when GWB was elected. I didn’t like him mostly because my parents didn’t like him. Then 9/11 happened, and then the war(s). And I became a vicious political activist before I left grade school- I insisted on reading the paper, I got into political discussions with adults.

Our government is going to save a fortune on electric bills at the White House- that carrot glows so much, they can keep the lights off all day long.
