Yes, this is my favorite. Just wonderful.

"I'm not going to get in the gutter" - what, with the victims?? They aren't there. You, however, are already in the gutter, and worse.

Schopenhauer: Night gives a black look to everything, no matter what it may be.

Also a reminder that the expression was originally meant sarcastically, to indicate something impossible to do and ridiculous to attempt.

This. Has. To. STOP

excited to award my kids the Burger King Peace Prize this weekend

Congratulations on all your kittens!

Not a woman. A GIRL.

Or worse.

Please let that be true. I'm so ready to go forward.

Or seeing ads featuring them in the middle of comedy shows I'm watching to decompress. I devoted a big chunk of my life to rescuing animals and have always supported such efforts and will always support them - but come on. Everyone in this rough world needs a break from seeing suffering and sadness

I was furious! What the HELL?

Well dang

Modern American culture expects/demands immediate results. Good governance, good construction, good science, those things take time, thinking, planning.

Wrecking stuff is fast. You can show the results this week.

This gives the Break Shit/Burn It All Down Party an advantage.

It’s that simple.

I understand why he's saying it this way -- but it horrifies me to hear our government reduced to debating about what Jesus would do. Separation of church and state, anyone?

She said she could barely get through the farewell to Harry Morgan. What she was saying to Col. Potter applied exactly to her feelings about Morgan.

Wow! Congratulations!!

First of all, by not calling these people "influencers". I'm sure there's a better label...

Sadly, I have the same problem. It's made it hard to enjoy the post-Jim Muppet films.

I'm so very sorry. I've been through this and it's awful. ♥️

The name alone is creepy.

The "don't earn enough" headline makes it sound as if they don't work hard enough. I much prefer the clearer "working households can't afford a minimal quality of life."

One small silver lining in all of this is that I'm finding quite a few new congresspeople to admire. They stand out like bright stars against the dark background of their colleagues.

What gets me is that these people, who know perfectly well they aren't qualified for these positions, are such egomaniacs that they jump on them anyway.

I believe my mom said something like that. When she was 98.

Another day of reminding everyone of Carl Sagan’s eerily accurate warning about the dangers of not being able to ask skeptical scientific questions to those in power or authority.
