That cartoon is so ridiculous.

I mean, there’s a “Sale” sign at the gov’t abortion clinic.  Obviously the gov’t would be providing abortions 100% free of charge.  Come on!

I worked in Yellowstone one summer, and I got asked a few times when the rangers were going to “set off” Old Faithful. Multiple co-workers were asked when they put the animals in for the night.  But the best I heard were from one of my brother’s NPS coworkers that did a stint at Gettysburg.  My favorites were, “Why do…

Isn’t gatorade basically just water and salt (oh yeah, and a bunch of sugar)?

It’s a damn shame about the wagons. I’m strategizing about a new car in the next year or so, and I’d be potentially attracted to the sportwagen or that new Buick/Opel. However, the Kia Niro (non plug-in) is in the same general price range, is somewhat wagonesque, but gets waaaaay better gas mileage than any of the…

I’m impressed by some of the aesthetic choices as well.  The hood and the roof are close to horizontal, and there’s nearly a right angle between hood and front grill.  More straight lines, please, carmakers!

Don’t forget about the brazenness of telling them to go back to their crime-infested countries when he himself has almost certainly committed many documented and prosecutable crimes (sexual assualt, tax fraud, obstruction of justice, money laundering, etc.).

My mom is super into genealogical research and recently found out that I’m Aaron Burr’s 2nd cousin 8x removed.  Which was good, because even before discovering this, I was already of the opinion that Hamilton the musical and the man were vastly overrated, and people who were super into either one were a bunch of…

Very cool, and I think this message is starting to sink in. I sell native plants, and I’m constantly getting asked about milkweeds. Yesterday at my local farmers market about 1/3 of my plants for sale were different milkweed species, which sold out about halfway through the market, while I had plenty of other species…

I understand Biden’s desire to push the whole civility, compromise, and consensus thing. It would be very good to have that in a two-party system, and I suppose there was some semblance of it once upon a time such that we, especially older voters, can look back upon fondly (which many people clearly do). But it makes…

I think ‘problematic’ is a perfectly useful and cromulent word (which is not to say it’s not used in weaselly ways sometimes). If a piece of art contains elements that are racist, sexist, or otherwise very bad, but those elements don’t constitute the primary focus of the work, problematic is a useful descriptor. Like,…

Well you can’t be too careful. In addition to straight-up diseases, you could get all kinds of stowaways during the shipping process (which is how all kinds of pests and invasive species wind up over here).

True, but Harvey played Hedley (or was it Hedy?) Lamar. 

That loser doesn’t even have any medals!  Bone spurs, indeed!

That’ll teach those two not to kneel during the national anthem, right guys?

It’s clear to any not racist person with a brain that Trump should be impeached and removed.  The only argument against impeaching is that the Senate will surely acquit him, which is a scenario that could potentially do more harm than good (I disagree with that reasoning, but it is a legitimate stance).  If…

You will not be disappointed.

You guessed right!

What about the 70,000 people who already live in Camden? Maybe some of the economic development funds should benefit them, instead of companies that employ a bunch of people who live in the suburbs and are only moving 10 miles down the road.

I live in Camden County, and I’m really interested to see how our upcoming primary plays out. My town is dotted with loads of honest-to-god yard signs for the elected members of the County Democratic Committee of all things. There’s an insurgent group of lefty activists running that got pushed to “Ballot Siberia” in…
