Comic panel showing a donkey and an elephant, representing the Democratic and Republican parties, respectively. In the first panel, the elephant nudges a vase. The second panel shows the vase shattering. In the third panel, the donkey says, "You broke that vase!” The elephant says, “Yep. What are you going to do to fix it?" The fourth panel shows the donkey saying, “Me?” The elephant says, "That's right. I want to hear a detailed plan from you." The fifth panel shows the donkey saying, "I don't know. It probably can't be fixed, now." The sixth panel shows the elephant saying, "Then you're a party with no ideas and no one should ever support you." The seventh panel shows the donkey saying, "But you broke it!!" The eighth panel shows the elephant saying, "Making messes nobody knows how to fix is such great politics." The comic is signed "L Simpson" and includes the URL "www.idrewthis.org".

panel from this week's cartoon, written last week, in which very short Bovino says if you don't stop calling ICE murderers we'll have no choice but to murder more of you, actions have consequences (your actions, not ours)

MEMO:

There is an inflection point in any struggle that I always recommend paying attention to.

When the Grannies are in the streets.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

SILVER AND LEAD, the nineteenth book in the October Daye series, is currently $2.99 across eBook platforms, at least in the US! What a great deal!

it's informative how many people I know who used to at least be willing to hedge a bit with "well, Republicans are people too and maybe we can win them over" have very much stopped doing that over the last year

this should worry the Republicans

It’s really interesting how much the entire decade of the Trump era has taught me to absolutely fucking hate all Republicans. If you think you hate Republicans, I assure you you don’t fucking hate them enough.

I may just have hit upon the most fundamental bedrock of safety in support of research: Umm Actually vs. It Depends

I must meditate upon this wisdom.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are walking somewhere, and Green is in a bad mood. Green: I hate wind. How it pulls and pushes and tugs me. And I hate the cold. A draft straight to my bone marrow! The air's too dry! A bird is singing! An unseen bird sings one clear, beautiful simple note, and Green turns to look up to it in anger. Blue looks at Green calmly. Green: Shut up! Blue: You need a soda. Drinking a beverage with a straw, Green is immediately mollified. Green: I'm sorry for getting on your nerves all day. Blue: I've been fine the whole day.

If you're fine with the Riker Maneuver, but can't handle the way Nahla Ake sits in a chair, chances are your problem isn't with the character...

IT Dance - Gator Days
IT Dance - Gator Days Transcript Panel 1 August is at the office and looking at a computer that's being difficult. It can't seem to connect to the network. The screen says "ERROR No connection So alone". Poor computer. August tried the usual fixes but the problem isn't obvious. He's begun searching for answers on his phone with a search engine called "searchle". August: This might take a while to fix. Robin: Okay, let me know when it's- Panel 2 Robin has noticed that August is searching online for solutions. Why did he even bring IT into this when he could have done that himself? Robin: Wait, you're just looking up how to fix it on your phone! I could have done that. August: You still can do that. Panel 3 Robin looks to the side and contemplates the situation. August wouldn't mind being able to skip this task but is also aware not everyone knows the right thing to search for and he will probably still have to do it in the end. Panel 4 Robin has decided to stop questioning things and take this as an opportunity to get some coffee. This moment is a gift. August is unbothered, he would probably do the same thing. Robin: I'm going to get some coffee. You want anything? August: No thanks.

One of the joys of THE LIBRARIANS reboot writing room was working with Sean & Sinéad. Their talent and dedication to telling delightfully weird stories to, ah, delight the weird, is bracing. They've got Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Musical on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/shi...

How many years have we been watching gun nuts open carry semiautomatic rifles into, like, a Dunkin' Donuts as a statement against government control? And they're now silent over a citizen being murdered by federal agents and then blamed for legally carrying a firearm?

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor:

"Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

NEWS from inside the Senate Dem meeting tonight:
1-Schumer has the votes to block the DHS funding bill
2-They're going to ask for real investigations into the murders (including an end to impeding the state/local investigations), an end to masks and arrest quotas.

I think it’s partially due to Evangelical types winning the branding war. Loud about Jesus waring Jesus as an accessory? Conservative Evangelical. It doesn’t help that pew data strongly backs the perception that white Christian = Conservative.

Okay, since I’m in a mood, do you know what is annoying mild *annoyance* about all this, rather than a gut-wrenching crisis?

I’m not a Christian but my sense of fairness keeps requiring me to defend the church because people keep posting shit about “Why aren’t Christians speaking up?!”

Paul Bunyan sez FUCK ICE.
An illustration of Paul Bunyan, the giant American mythic lumberjack, giving one ICE agent a wedgie, and punting another with a shoe. Another ICE agent has just slipped and eaten shit on the ground, without anyone’s help. The text reads PAUL BUNYAN SEZ FUCK ICE.
