Eliza Dushku is telling the truth. I was on the True Lies set for 3 weeks and reported Joel Kramer’s inappropriate sexual behavior towards 12-year-old Eliza to a person in authority. I was met with blank stares and had the sense that I wasn’t telling that person anything they didn’t already know. I tried to keep Joel…

The Code 45* team notes the plethora of exclamatory words presented in ALL CAPS today – an indication that Baron von Shithole is moving from an active simmer to a full-on boil again!

Whoa, this sounds like it could be really cool. No chance it could get Team Dresch to reunite for an appearance?

I, for one, am shocked, shocked!, that there is a yet another racist in the White House of these United States of America.

“I am not racist.” is one of those sentences that always means the complete opposite.

From a friend who is far more eloquent than I:

Odd how two Republican congressmen from California who voted to raise taxes on their own constituents to finance tax cuts for the super-rich are now retiring. It’s almost like they know that they are slightly less popular in their districts than a herpes flare-up.

In today’s Code 45*, El Jefe Calabaza Anaranjada dabbles in a little exposition of his psyche. He very simply tells us how he would be characterized according to a Heckhausenian/Schulzian life-span theory typology:

As funny as it is to laugh about Trump Tower catching fire or how he is, like, a stable genius, I still hate to end the day thinking about Our Moron President.

Redacting my comment: other people said it better. My bad!

OK. I will take the bait, though I shouldn’t: The actresses have built into their contracts that they have to show up to these events. It’s part of the publicity and marketing for their projects. They cannot just not show up. It is their jobs. They are not there for fun. As well, contacts are made, hands are shaken,…

I feel happy just reading your posts about Marz. It’s clear she has brought you so much joy. Dogs just make everything better.

The news cycle has blessedly been all about the “Fire and Fury” book, with local DC bookstores having Harry Potter-like lines for midnight releases. In 7° weather.

Holy shit, I knew a day’s rest would get him back on track! Today brings us a veritable treasure trove of exclamations from which to discern the Code 45*. Note that while there were eight exclamation-pointed words in the Barf Bag roundup today, one of them (“earth”) was disqualified for illegal substitution. To wit:…

As fun as it is watching a sentient sebaceous cyst and an amoral skin lesion take turns throwing one another underneath busloads of racist yokels, it’s more fun to spend a bomb cyclone with a giant sheepdog.

White People Being White, news at 11

Lindy Lou who?

Today’s Code 45* reflects the feverish belief held by the sentient orange Swiffer duster that history will treat him kindly. He just knows deep down that people will come to love him once they see all the winning and the greatness-again and the JOBS! and the protection from marauding brown gangs and all the sweet,…

Just because black people voted... doesn’t mean it was voter fraud.
