Like Satchie below, I realize that I was confused about something awhile back. I try to make my amends--and introduce a new review of an excellent book here: luckorcunning.blogspot.com/2025/10/my-l...

Will Kimmel be another Shostakovich, revising his approach in response to "just criticism"?
(I'll say no, but I've been wrong before.)

What MAGA supporters hate about the new South Park season is that they can't say the show is "woke." For 30 years, nothing has been more anti-woke than South Park. It doesn't give a shit if something shown is politically incorrect. So complaints about it come off as snowflakey. Trumpians hate that

“Do I like this bill? No. But I tried to take care of Alaska’s interests.”
So much for Murkowski.
Collins? I really think she got the OK from Trump to vote against it once he realized he didn't need her. If she'd mattered, she'd have voted Yes.

A review of Margaret Canovan's "The People" (not the earlier work pictured below!)...and a couple of gratuitous remarks on how I happened to get interested in democratic theory myself. I mean, who could ignore such enticements?!? 😴

Curious what people think: Who's more instantly defensive--Hegseth or Leavitt?
FWIW, I look forward to staff tell-alls about their obnoxiousness after they're gone--I mean if they ever leave.

I love the last sentence of this brag. It's like the final line in a memo about employees being required to wash their hands after going to the bathroom.

Hard to believe this person could be elected even as local clown. Naturally, she provides no single shred of evidence for her claims.

So, I'm wondering--with the half-billion dollar plane and the obvious man-crush and everything: does this mean there won't be another Muslim ban? Does MAGA now just love everyone from the countries Trump just visited the absolute most??

I think I'd be scared to have one of those guys around. It would certainly scare the hell out of my (wimpy) dog.

Dunno if this is relevant, but after seeing a MAGAT in an "Even My Dog Loves Trump" t-shirt at chiropractor's office yesterday, I had to go home and (i) puke, and then (ii) talk to my dog about politics for a couple hours. (FWIW, he never liked Trump and said that guy's dog must be a douchebag.)

Hmmm. What can I do today that is sure to make the world a little bit worse?
