Minerva @ Midnight: eat pie under the covers

The week has started badly and tragically. Even the Suez Canal got blocked. but we should at least think about Spring Cleaning, even if we never get it completed. It’s enough to make you nuke a space hurricane, eat a pie under the covers, or buy a QAnon Sudoku decoder...

Trump's poisonous snowball of nonsense will roll again today in the Senate chamber

Apparently Trump may have had nothing to do with the insurrection, according to one of his defense attorneys. Some guy named Grassy Knoll may have done it. x David Schoen floated a strange theory on Sean Hannity's show in defense of the former president. It’s worth unpacking, because it points...

The Daily Bucket–Goose with a thousand names
