Have you tried harissa?

His reputation isn’t worth ten cents.

How working-class white Southerners can help defeat MAGA Rural whites can be fierce fighters for economic and racial justice — if they are welcomed by progressives

Does it come with Corey Lewendowski?

I simply can’t believe Congress and the cabinet are sitting around, totally fine with what is absolutely demented behavior from the president.

It is a beautiful, ordinary spring morning. Time to feed the chickens and the goats, to dodge the Canada goose waiting for its mate to hatch goslings.

And to worry if the Fascist Kleptocrat has gone so far around the bend as to use tactical nuclear weapons. Today. Unchecked. Dear god.

@tampabaytre.bsky.social @connorjrogers.bsky.social : Younglings, I am old enough to have seen Marc Wilson play HS ball. Don't bet, don't fantasy, rarely have time to watch games.

But I depend upon y'all for a burst of decency every night before sleep. Sorry @ PFF. Proud of you both.

Dude thinks he can just bankrupt his way out of the entirely voluntary war with Iran.

And the Epstein files.

Haven't gone down that rabbit hole, thoroughly absorbed by the Tyrant Philosophers series. Damn he writes a lot.

Thanks. Never went looking for a performance. I forgot what the internet is for…

Even if one cares more about climate than country, the incentives in this atrocious war are still perverse.

If the Straits remain impassable, if things escalate and billion $ facilities are destroyed, if the world has to move on from oil (even if the US doesn't), that's still a net win.

His short, stubby fingers itch for the nuclear football.

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Because Jobe had no patience?

The actual picks aren't sorted and announced until after the draft, right?

So we can't actually use them in this year's draft as trade bait. (Even if that were desirable.)

Or am I wrong, as usual?

They should have gone with your colors. And your background. With less type, or at least smaller. But I was a typesetter in '79, so...

These books helped to get me through Covid, but I fear -- despite my years -- I've proven an inept reader. I read them as hard-boiled humor, not as comedy. So, fwiw, did my elder brother and his best friend.

Not sure what that says about authorial intent! (Probably nothing.)

We live now in the fallout of the Bush Doctrine of preemptive attack, with blatant disregard for intelligence. And oil.

We live now in a rogue state.

We should have resisted more strongly then. We have to resist with all our strength now.

That $143-million Noem contract?

Real question is where did the media buys go, cuz that's like 80% of it.

Find that out, and it's further proof of state-sponsored propaganda outlets.

That's the real graft here.

'Hawks fan, here, but I know a couple family members randomly. They weren't sure he'd come back from Europe to play, last time I asked!

I'm told he wants to play RT, his natural spot, that he wants a chance to properly show what he can do. He played hurt most of the time in Cleveland. Luck, y'all.

I wonder if the Fascist Kleptocrat even knew there were civilians in the Middle East, and how close together the countries were to his bombs, and how difficult it was going to be for them to get out.

But the ICE flights continue. So there's that.

No run D. I'd be shocked. And the price is too high.

Do I have this right? Christian Nationalists have instigated war in the Middle East to hasten the Second Coming, abetted by the oligarchs, who were planning to move to Mars anyway?

Good book or anthology with a coupla stories?

Dang. Kinda wish the Seahawks had...ah, well.

Please publish your list.

Guess that depends on who they sign/resign, and how many picks in '27 we have to give up.

As it stands, we need RB, CB, probably S, probably WR, certainly Edge. With three decent picks. Even in a bad draft...heading into a good one...

Does war with Iran and closure of the Strait of Hormuz make Venezuelan crude (different tho it be) more valuable?

Y'know, our imperialist seizure down south? With offshore bank accounts...

Is it as simple as all that?

(Probably.)

I so wish we cared about all the dead & maimed, and not just the Americans.

Not all. Lifelong pacifist. Who likes pro wrestling…so…
