A sick part of me has been looking forward to the RNC more than the DNC because of the sheer entertainment value. It’s like watching Godzilla knock over a city. But I figure it’s also a bit like watching a solar eclipse: staring directly at it could cause irreparable harm to my being. I’m contenting myself with…

I think it’s likely he’ll see serious consequences, but those consequences probably won’t be jail time. It’s possible he might get charged with crimes by New York’s AG, it’s even possible Biden will follow through on his promise to let his AG have at ‘im (though this is less likely, in my mind). I think the bigger…

Because I’m apparently an account that exists solely to talk about the post office (2020 has done strange things to us all):

Oh no! Now how will George and Kellyanne act out whatever weird sex thing was obviously behind their messy public opposition?

Go go Godzilla!

Because it will slow the leftward drift of the Democratic Party and Pelosi loves to punch at the hippies. Kennedy and Markey have basically the same the policies, but if Kennedy gets in now he’ll be harder to oust by Ayanna Pressley or some of the other up and coming progressive talent in Massachusetts the next time…

Sorry, I misread your comment there. I’ve long heard 35% cited as the critical point-of-no-return where a candidate cannot possibly get elected.

Yeah, that’s why I’m pretty wary of all the polling news about Biden kicking Trump’s ass up and down the block. I’m certainly hoping that reflects future voting behavior, but that 40% approval makes me think it’s not the whole story. I’d feel a lot more comfortable if Trump were in the 35% or less category.

Me after reading that article:

That he still has that 40% approval rating against a backdrop of mass death, economic ruin, and general chaos is a testament to the fact that a significant portion of the country is fully ready to don their special Nikes, drink their Kool-Aid, and hop aboard the comet-ship to eternity; and there’s no getting them back.

Yeah, once again proving Senate Republicans are more cunning beasts than Trump, with his “Look at me pardoning Susan B. Anthony! NOTHING TO HIDE HERE!  Also, how can you trust Michelle when she low-balled my Corona deaths?!”

Not only did the Senate Intelligence Committee conclude that Russia interfered in 2016, but that the Trump campaign sure as fuck colluded (especially Manafort and Stone) and Russia is still interfering in 2020. It’s worth taking a closer look at!

Yes! Stamped and delivered!

With apologies to Nintendo:

Good catch!

Maybe Trump can mail her the pardon. Once USPS is functioning well enough that she gets it in the netherworld, we’ll talk about praise.

Delicious and full of vitamin C!

Today in me yelling about the post office until I turn blue in the face and pass out: Louis DeJoy has decided he’s going to show up for his upcoming hearing, so we won’t have to wonder whether inherent contempt was actually on the table. In any case, let’s hope the oversight committee has what it takes to deliver us a…

As long as we’re having some petty fun, he also compared Fox and Friends to the Taliban:

He’s like a parrot that’s been half-trained by a bargain bin New Jersey mobster. My phone’s auto-fill suggestions are more coherent than this man.
