Does this idiot not have one adviser willing to say “Look, Senator....there’s nothing you can do to fix this right now. Keep your head down, stop engaging on this and maaaaybe it’ll blow over sooner rather than later.”

Yeah, I know. In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny “What a maroon!” When I was younger, stories like this were endlessly entertaining. Now, not so much. Do you want a guy who thinks he can build IEDs in his garage raising children? Certainly speaks to a major lack of judgement. And one thing this ol’ world has a…

It’s easy to Darwin Award this guy...except there’s going to be a kid who’ll never know their father. That’s just very sad.

Noooooooooooo!

The great thing about cargo shorts is they’re never in style. Thus helping the wearer achieve a zen-like state of permanent dorkitude. Plus plenty of pockets.

No doubt there’s a con built into this somewhere. But let’s not underestimate the racism and entitlement aspects of this. She got booted out of a job (that she wasn’t qualified for) by “those people” and goddamnit, she’s gonna make them pay for that!

Oh also: Pleeeease never again publish such an extreme close-up photo of Ted Cruz ever again. Truly nauseating.

Oh Ted...Ted, Ted, Ted...you would’ve been better off literally hitting yourself repeatedly in the balls with a nail-studded club and screaming “I’m sorry!” after every blow. This is...whew...a new low in Cruz-brand pathetic public humiliation. You really think this is getting you off the hook, you sad clown punk? AOC…

Yeah, I tried a fat bike last summer. Didn’t like it. My bike is my mule. Takes me everywhere to do everything. Life is much enhanced with a bike.

Gah, well that sucks. Feel better quick.

Insomnia, right? It comes and it goes and comes again. Nice of you to ask and hope things are ok on your side :)

+1 for the bike.

Oh man...I’d kill to hear some live music! My latest fantasy is van dwelling. I think from seeing the Nomadland movie commercials. I think about how little connection I have to where I live now and it’s like...why the hell not? In the last 10+ years, I’ve lost most anything that I *thought* had value (turns out most…

A few days ago, I got a call from the community clinic that is my primary provider. My doctor said they had a few doses of vaccine left over for that day from no-shows or whatever. If I could make it in within a 45 minute window, I could get the shot. I specifically asked if she was sure and if I wasn’t jumping the…

There’s been a massive uptick in people smoking on the trains. Like anything and everything. Maybe not the grossest thing but still gross.

I believe this is unfair to any of us who ride public transit in a larger city. Chances are we’ve seen it all at some point. Hell, we might have actually done some of it, too. Allegedly.

Loaded or not, this whole thing was still performative. Pathetic.

Yeah, true. Bill is a smart guy but he has definite flaws. Makes you wonder how much shit Hillary kept him out of, seeing all the shit he got himself into.

See Bill and Hillary. Whatever you think of them, in the narrow context of “political team”, they were good.

Cruz is so desperate to be POTUS, he can taste it. But he’s so bad at playing human, he can’t figure out how to get what he wants. His pathetic flailing around is good cringey entertainment, at least. I, for one, am glad he’s committed to the facial hair. You know he thinks it makes him look extra-masculine when he…
