Hope it was worth it, Roodles. Speaking of which: what was "it," anyway?

Doing time gives Bannon some solid cred with the MAGAt mob.

I'll let you get back to your idiotic psychopathic, hyperbolic festival of hysteria.

Lovely velvet glove work, that, on a self-owned hack. Well done, sir/madam.

Another gun ------- Republican jackass. If you can't be bothered to inspect your own luggage for loose fireworks, emergency flares, anti-personnel mines, pistolitod, dirks, etc., you most definitely are way too careless, downright stupid, or just moronically contrarian to be allowed around weapons.

Right, TWINPAC, which means anything and everything that scares, confuses, unnerves, or angers the manbaby. Which is everything that doesn't go precisely his way. Such a beacon for the kids!

And those who refused recusal will continue to do so and continue to play roles in cases where they are wildly conflicted. Shame? Fuhgedaboudit. These bastards don't even blush.

He's an obese chancer who is afraid of his own shadow and wears suits three sizes too large for him and ties he almost trips over because his hairdresser told him otherwise he might "look a tad ... big-boned." Of course he's afraid of windmills.

Empathy never found much of a home in the Republican Party. Among today's MAGAts? Sorry, no room at the inn.

Your point, other than correcting the headline writer at The Guardian? And what does that second sentence even mean? Oh, it's snarky, yes, but unmoored and flaccid.

False memories from those who traffic in "alternative facts."

Part of the Okiehoma Edumacashun Dept's "My Mythology Whups Yer Mythology" project.

He was a terrific character actor - you'd know the face, appreciate his bit, and not know the guy's name until his obit appears. Actually, that alone is pretty darn good for a character actor who seemed to relish each job. RIP

Wait ... that way, according to a ruling Clarence just made, the payoff will be a "gratuity" and not a "bribe."

Indigenous tribes in the US have been royally screwed by those seeking possession of their property and the destruction of their cultures. For centuries. Every once in a while, even forced to play in a loaded game by the dominant culture's rules, they actually win one. Good on them.

Woody Allen's line from Bananas (1971), which specifically concerned a trial, seem especially relevant with respect to the current SCOTUS:

"It's a travesty of a mockery of a sham of a mockery of two mockeries of a sham ... ."

Trump must be listening to Billy "Yup, Up and UP!" Baffert.

Two pints from the article. First: "Tina's combination of inner-ear abnormalities is known only in people with Down's syndrome." And this:

"The survival of this child, beyond the period of breastfeeding, implies group caregiving, probably more extended than parental caregiving, typical of a highly collaborative social context among the members of the group. Otherwise, it is very difficult to explain the survival of this individual up to the age of six years," said Valentn Villaverde, a co-author of the study and an emeritus professor of prehistory at the University of Valencia.

Conde-Valverde said: "The discovery of Tina represents the oldest known case of Down's syndrome and demonstrates that the diversity observed in modern humans was already present in prehistoric times. This finding ensures that the story of human evolution includes us all."

Excellent point.

So if the bribe paid to a public official is paid after and not before the purchased service/favor and called a "gratuity" the bribery of public officials is condoned by the Court's "conservative" majority.

Interesting story, great find.

"The discovery of the remains of the ship from the 14th-13th century BCE proves that Late Bronze Age mariners could navigate the seas without a line of sight to the shore, contrary to what was previously believed ... ."

I'd question that statement. For example, the Minoans and others in the Mediterranean (general location of the find) used celestial navigation. The stars were up there, whether you gazed at them from land or sea.

Which takes nothing away from this discovery. And some courageous seafaring.

Many Asian grunts in the Red Army who showed up in Budapest in 1956 to stomp on the Hungarian Revolution asked locals where the Suez Canal was; they'd been told their destination was Egypt. Maybe these guys think they're going to the Moon. Quien sabe?

Guess this pretty much puts to restthe company's old gung-ho "If It Isn't Boeing, I'm Not Going" slogan.
