Garbage Pail cards--I loved those!

Yes, President Biden has done a great job choosing diverse cabinet members, and that's very, VERY important to me.

Finished with bacon, poached eggs, and butter.

Salami and cheese rollups. Not particularly hungry.

In this graphic, you can see we're among developed countries with relatively low gas prices:

Fossil fuel oligarchs are playing games with their drilling permits.

What exactly is wrong with President Biden? Is it that the right has permanently besmirched him with their baseless claims of election fraud?

He did release the oil reserves and scold the fossil fuel oligarchs--about all he could do.

All the economic markers that a President has influence over are humming along. Gas prices are down and inflation is slowing. Both oil and gas prices are a worldwide phenomenon.

Yes. He'll go down as one of the most successful presidents in history regardless of detractors. Though he wasn't my first choice, I'm suitably impressed.

My grandmother was a lifelong, devout Catholic. As far as I know, few of her descendants embraced Catholicism, or indeed, any religion. We're like that here in the PNW. I don't have any opinions...

She might have been humiliated--that could explain her aversion to nun shoes. My aunt staged a rebellion when some nun tried to rap her knuckles with a ruler. The story goes that she grabbed the...

I've probably mentioned this before--my mother didn't own one pair of black shoes because she harbored memories of staring down at some nun's shoes while being lectured--apparently, more than once.

I've grown fond of cottages in my dotage, and this article is full of reasons why. I especially love the walled gardens, with a voluptuous abundance of plants (no anal-retentive gardens there!), the...

Your cottage bedroom provides a perfect opportunity for cozy décor.
Is there a bathroom on that floor, or will there be a chamber pot? :~)

Olivia Troye, Republican homeland security and counterterrorism advisor to Vice President Pence, relates how appalled she was at the handling of government documents during her tenure. She described...

Rosy as in MAGA red? Turning a blind eye to encroaching authoritarianism is, at best, irresponsible.

Every page in a declassified document must be similarly stamped. Trump's hubris is over the top--he still seems to think he is king.
I bet there are a few of these rattling around in Putin's safe,...

The article doesn't list specific cases, it discusses the phenomenon in general. Apparently Cannon was a garden-variety looter--one of those who infiltrate demonstrations to cause trouble, like the...

I thought cop-killing was mostly a right-wing thing, as in January 6th and this latest nail-gun wielding whack job.

Your optimism is inspiring! :D

Very handsome!

I'm generally OK with being called stupid, but not before I've had my coffee. :(

Mine too. Except for the cottage part.

I joke that I'd join Antifa if I could find an application somewhere--who on earth wouldn't be anti-fascist?. Outside the Proud Boys and other right-wing provocateurs, there were a few brawlers at...

I'm sure I'm biased, but where are the Violent Democratic fringewits in your scenario? I don't see any lefties shooting up supermarkets or FBI offices or threatening civil war.
