  1. RE: mastodon.world/@BrianJopek/110

    I first shared this a few years ago. I think that favorite day has arrived. My hope now, with a long road ahead, is the Dems don’t screw it up.

  2. Part of an email received today from the Bobblehead Hall of Fame Museum.

    “With his victory over Republican U.S. representative Tom Tiffany, Crowley became Wisconsin’s first African American governor. The first David Crowley bobblehead is produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum and is part of a new series featuring some of the most requested political bobbleheads related to the 2026 Midterm elections and the upcoming 2028 elections.”

  3. In today’s edition of “Overheard in the newsroom”:

    Me: (to editor) I ran across another town board meeting next week for your list.

    Editor: You volunteering to cover it?

    Me: No, I may take the day off.

    Editor: Dude, you always do this, wait until the last minute to decide on a vacation day.

    Me: (refers to the six photo assignments on Saturday that start at 9 a.m.) You have someone else to cover all these fuckin photo assignments Saturday?

    Editor: No

    Me: Well, then. Shut the fuck up!

  4. “You’re not a wartime Consigliere.”

    That’s Michael Corleone’s famous line from The Godfather, in which he explains to Corleone family counselor Tom Hagen that shit’s about to get real, and you don’t have what it takes.

    Know who else isn’t a wartime consigliere? Hakeem Fucking Jeffries, the Man Who Would Be Speaker of the House. Jeffries couldn’t wartime-consigliere his way out of a paper bag. - Jeff Tiedrich

  5. The measles outbreak in southwestern Wisconsin continues; from a press release I received about an hour ago from the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. This poor kid.

    “It is with a heavy heart we are reporting the first death of an infant connected with a measles outbreak in Wisconsin in many years. My heart is broken for the family," said DHS Secretary Kirsten Johnson. "Any death of a child is a tragedy and even more so when it is related to a vaccine-preventable disease.”

  6. This is soooo beyond kickass.

  7. RE: mastodon.social/@dec_hl/117562

    Hell, anytime I get out of the La Z Boy and go to the kitchen for anything, Gizmo will be there at some point, expecting Temptations treats. I should buy stock in whatever company has those …

  8. RE: disabled.social/@vlrny/1175605

  10. RE: mastodon.social/@top_news/1175

    Listened to an interview with her on NPR as I was getting ready for work. I’d like to see her get a shot at a meaningful public office again. Like, maybe POTUS?

  11. RE: mastodon.social/@The_Whore_of_

  13. Somewhere there’s a photo of me with a belly dancer (she was actually British) taken while I was on a four day leave to Qatar during my 2004 deployment to the Middle East. I thought about this song as I watched her perform at the restaurant where other troops in my unit had dinner that night. The things ya think about when a song comes on.

  16. A bit chillier out on deck this evening and still kinda rainy but the hot tea hits the spot.

    Yeah, I had a life that was real but you took it all from me
    I should have seen you were trouble and I shouldn't have stayed
    I've got a phantom pain that never fades away
    I made a deal with the devil but I never got paid

  17. I hope it’ll be as soon as possible.

  18. Reality, if only temporarily, burst the White House bubble. Even Trump and his cronies know that Iowa and Kansas and Michigan and North Carolina and South Carolina and Texas did not all conspire together to rig the outcome. This righteous blue wave was made in red America. - Susan B. Glasser
