The fact that the party basically handed her the nomination because it was her ‘turn’ was a concession to her feelings and wasn’t based on any calculus of her electability or her capability to govern. (And her only real opposition was some guy who isn’t even a member of the party.)

As the old Jewish joke goes, whenever I’m feeling down, I read Der Sturmer. It tells me that my people are endlessly rich and run the world.

“Hey I’m not an ignorant shithead, where’s my prize?”

Hi Jezzies! Sorry to post this here on SNS, but it must be done.

An Arsenal of Vibrators...

It’s obviously Salo.

Oh FFS. I had to double take. Christ on a cracker .

Eh, I’m still giving the prize to Mary Elizabeth Winstead doing Under The Skin (and providing the soundtrack).

The Addams Family set looks different in color.

Yay for you gettin’ some, and an excuse to post all my Addams Family gifs! (from the original TV show:)

The harmonica’s playing the skeleton keys in the rain, and this vision of our Hannah is now all that remains.

It’s also a deceptive point of comparison...Madonna has done just fine with her vocal ability (such as it is).

This video really made my day. Cry, you piece of shit, cry forever.

This just in from Nancy O’Dell: “Sorry, I think I am going to throw up and it isn’t morning sickness.”

Someone’s at the door.

Nice to see that Nine Inch Nails have a new video.
