If it means anything, it means whatever you think it might mean - no sense overthinking it.

Holiday Safety Tip

Nothing spoils the Christmas mood like some thieving asshole.

And while I'd rather watch these dripping dicks get blown up, that wouldn't exactly be in keeping with the spirit of the season - or the law, for that matter. 

It's just good to know there are people out there who know how to do stuff, and do it in a way that makes the point while staying inside the boundaries (something we've been sorely missing of late).


May the fake lord bless you and keep you, Super Nerds.

Pre-emption

Just trying to head off some of the bullshit that's already starting to spout from the Repubs on this one:

Sean Sullivan, WaPo:

Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey has appointed fellow Republican Rep. Martha McSally to the Senate, he announced Tuesday, picking a favorite of GOP leaders to fill the seat John McCain held for decades.
-and -

“I am humbled and grateful to have this opportunity to serve and be a voice for all Arizonans,” McSally said in a statement issued by Ducey’s office. She said she looked forward to working with Sen.-elect Kyrsten Sinema, the Democrat who defeated her in November.
"Service" got nuthin' to do with it, lady.

Martha McSally is a power hungry simp who'll say and do any-fuckin'-thing she has to say or do in order to gain access to the National Millionaire-Makers Club popularly known as the US Senate.

The voters rejected her last month on the basis of her vote(s) in the House to repeal the ACA ("Let's fucking do this!"), coupled with the standard GOP bullshit mid-term campaign theme of "We're committed to protecting the rights of people with pre-existing conditions".


The bosses want her in there because she always does what the bosses tell her to do. Which makes this little episode all the more distasteful, as she's running for John McCain's old seat.

It didn't get all fucked up yesterday.

We won't get it all unfucked by tomorrow.

There's still an awful lot to do.


Follow the thread.

Today's Poems

There once was a man from Japan
Whose poetry never would scan
When someone asked why
He said with a sigh
It's prob'ly cuz I put too many goddamned words in the last fucking line.

- and -

There once was a lad
From Cork who got limericks
Confused with haikus

hat tips = Doug Rapier & Sean Harrison
