Senate Democrats prepare to destroy Obamacare in an orderly, stepwise progression, rather than fight to the end and hang it around Republicans necks. If those "moderates" succeed, Democrats will lose the midterms, and the fascism will be pure.

I can't help but wonder if a list of perpetrators could not be identified and assembled considering the "tens of thousands" of abuse videos it was claimed the FBI was reviewing.

What this sounds like instead is, "Sorry! We can't find any info. Please forget previous statements to the contrary."

In fairness, I've heard the idea of real-world interaction in our evermore dysfunctional world without anything to assist or cope (therapy, drugs, maybe devices) referred to tongue-in-cheek as "raw dogging reality," but "rawdogging" alone without reference to with what they are interacting?

Same, Pope. Same.

But I kept getting told this was the best of all possible worlds. I'm starting to think we were all misinformed.

I thought Buckingham would just... y'know. Sit there..?

Digging through newspapers for Ohio social history often reveals amusing anecdotes. This one, which will someday be part of a second volume from an eclectic selection of correspondents, always gives me a chuckle. Shared by "JONATHAN" of New Madison, Ohio, in the Greenville Journal, 28 Feb 1866:
