  • Only Little Boys And Republicans Think Freedom Is Actually “Free”

    “Freedom” may be the most abused, lease understood word in the entire English language. People seeking it don’t abuse it (they can’t – they don’t have it!). Rather, it’s the people who already have it who regularly abuse it – using their freedom to deny other Americans the same freedom. Libertarians define freedom as “you’re…

  • The GOP Is “Trumpenstein’s Monster”

    s I am not the first person to think of Trump as “Trumpenstein“. Some very clever people have been here already and created some very clever things! But, as people often do with the “Frankenstein franchise”, they mistake the monster for its creator. Frankenstein may be the “monster”, but Doctor Frankenstein created him. That will…

  • America + Guns = Magical Thinking

    Stone cold fact: a significant chunk of America really and truly thinks that having more guns around makes everyone (and America) safer. Never mind that every scrap of data screams the exact opposite. People compelled to own guns don’t care about statistics. Even “responsible gun owners” increase the chances that something bad will happen inside…

  • Flo & Co Vs The LiMu Emu: Proof Comedy IS Hard

    When you watch as much cable news as I do, you watch a lot of ads. A lot of the same ads – for the same products – with recurring casts of characters. I could do a long, loud riff on Big Pharma’s constant pitching at us, but that’s for another time. One of the…

  • How To Destroy Democracy, Step One: Hijack The Language

    Words matter. In a democracy, they matter a lot. Ours is a do-it-yourself government. We don’t have a king or a dictator to solve our problems because we chose to solve them all ourselves – using the majority’s wisdom. In order to do that, we have to agree on a couple of things: to begin…

  • “Trumpocalypse Now”: The Movie

    There’s a theory that we don’t actually live in “reality”. Rather, we’re all part of a giant computer simulation. We’re not individual humans with lives, histories and feelings, we’re bits of bytes. I have a competing theory. We’re not part of any sort of computer simulation, we’re all characters acting in a movie called “Trumpocalypse…

  • Ooga-Booga v Knowledge: America’s Simple Choice

    When U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk of Abilene, Texas took mifepristone off America’s pharmacy shelves, he perfectly encapsulated America’s abortion argument and our choices. On the one side sits knowledge, surrounded by receipts. On the other sits ooga-booga. Ooga-booga doesn’t have receipts. They don’t know even know what receipts are (or how to spell “receipts”).…

  • Telling The Truth v Selling The Truth

    Whether or not you believe in Jesus (or even if Jesus existed), you can’t deny that a few of the things he supposedly said are good advice. Even a humble atheist can do unto others – and find happiness in doing it. Another bit of good advice Jesus gave was this: “the truth will set…

  • Or It Could Go Like This…

    Spoiler Alert: in this version of events – should they happen – the Republican Party ends up in History’s Graveyard alongside the Whigs. If that ruins it for you, stop reading here. However, if the idea of the Republican Party ceasing to be puts a smile on your face? Let’s indulge in a little… well,…

  • The GOP – Where Ooga Meets Booga

    In another universe – a dark, terrible one – the Republican Party has achieved something remarkable. They’ve found a way to take bullshit to bold, new heights every single day. Just by opening their mouths. Whatever the serious problem facing America, the Republican response to it is guaranteed to be gibberish. Yet another military assault…
