I agree with Semilla, Lemony Snarkets and sakisaki6. There is no silver lining to Clinton not getting elected. None.

Frankly, we need to take the entire natural world. Since these fuckers don’t care a rat’s ass about it, they can do without it.

It’s amazing, really. I wandered over onto a very red site at some point recently, and one of the commenters was actually referring to “the enemy”. She wasn’t talking about Russia or North Korea or anything like that. She was talking about liberals. I asked her what the hell she was thinking calling other Americans

Honestly, the deeper we go the more I want to just weep. She would have been a great president. I know she wouldn’t respect lying around weeping, though, so I’m not doing that, I’m working as hard as I can to resist, insist, persist, enlist.

I can see how this would have appeared to be the quick and easy way out, until it apparently wasn’t.

How did it not die instantly? I mean, hit full on by a CAR going SEVENTY? How was it still alive even for a moment?

OK, but Washington has Third Place Books, and a four hour drive will take you to Powell’s books in Portland. You really should google both Third Place and Powell’s if you like independent book stores, they are wonderful and if you ever get to the PNW I think you’ll want to visit them.

It’s not so much the dirt nap as the torture.

I always have trouble with the “punishment” aspect of these discussions. Punishment doesn’t enter into it, as I see it. The question is if killing them is the only way to get them to stop. Punishment has no meaning in a situation like this. It’s like saying someone has paid their debt when they get out of jail. You

I love Yoko for at least a couple of reasons I can think of instantly. First of all, she’s always been so fiercely herself. She gets an enormous amount of hate from people who seem to feel that because she doesn’t offer anything that they personally can relate to she is without value. She doesn’t appear to have ever

Yes, I find that amazing too, because they grow a heap of produce in Washington as well. I’d be curious to know more about that. It must be delightful to work at MSU, that whole Lansing/Ann Arbor area seems like a nice place to live.

I’ll love it, that’s for sure.

Do tell! I hadn’t heard of that! Honestly, Michigan and Washington have so much in common. When I was tragically ripped away from Washington some years ago and landed in (twitch) Indiana, Michigan saved my sanity. I like Washington better for all the reasons listed and if I had to choose between the two would deff go

My auntie has found cinnamon very effective in controlling blood sugar as well. Fascinating.

Oh come on jinni! This is a great day. Not only did they suffer a large and humiliating loss that was being closely watched by everyone, but 1) they did it to themselves 2) while it’s true that part of the reason they lost was hard core right wing assholes, but the OTHER part was something that I for one thought was

Yeah, that does suck, but in the first place if they loose a few more they may be willing to be a bit more functional. Secondly, can we just enjoy this? Just for today? Am I a bad person because I’m SO HAPPY?

Doesn’t matter. They screwed themselves. It’s great. In fact it’s better because they screwed themselves for once instead of us. Just enjoy it, it’s been a long, LONG time since anything good happened on the national stage.

YES!!! TODAY IS GOOD!!! I had the day off, the Republicans shot themselves and their “President” in the foot, Planned Parenthood and the ACA live another day, it was warm and sunny, and it’s Friday so I don’t have to walk the dogs tomorrow!! TODAY IS GREAT!!!

You know, I’m starting to think this is a much more difficult task than it first appeared. Every state I am disdainful of turns out to have passionate partisans who make good points. I myself am very fond of Nebraska, for example, and could argue passionately for it’s inclusion if given the chance. In actual fact, I
