MFP is neologisms that get sticky. Cheugy is the latest, being a term that Generation Z calls Millennials, perhaps it’s the revival of more postmodernism. Generation Z consumer-brand attacks on Millennials consumption habits may be all that Gheugy is about. Proud Boys and their golf polos may be Cheugy, if only...

I’m probably a lot closer on the political spectrum to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez than I am to Joe Biden—and not just because I prefer a Starbucks triple venti nonfat soy caramel baby’s blood macchiato to whatever low-rent greasy spoon baby’s blood bevvie Biden drinks. Probably has Sanka in it. Pfft. So I appreciate what AOC is saying...

Herman Cain’s twitter account is now tweeting without acknowledging that he has passed away. Can verified accounts outlive their owners? Hopefully he won’t be requesting any mail-in ballots. Not exactly Timothy Leary but apparently 9-9-9 truly is an inverted version of 666 and reminds us that Herman Cain’s denial of COVID-19’s contagion...

It’s especially hard to organize folks these days. You can’t call a meeting.   It’s tough to talk and listen with masks on. Yet suburban folks west of Portland Oregon are organizing against a  developer’s plans to build a Chevron gas station/mini-mart adjacent to wetlands, big trees, and a Park Greenway....

In his presser, Trump blamed Portland violence on “professional anarchists” because of course they carry cards noting their memberships, rather than those awful amateur anarchists. There are so darn many of them, so many moms and vets. Too many pro-tips for Trump, because when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro....

From Dean M. Harris at NC Policy Watch: In 2015, U.S. Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina argued that we don’t need government rules for public health in the food service industry, because the free market would protect public health and safety. As an example, he said that the government...

Today I took a short break from my home Coronavirus lockdown to restock at a nearby grocery store. Heeding the advice of friends, I first made sure I was protected before heading out. So, I loaded my AR-15 and slung it over my shoulder. It rested comfortably over my Kevlar...

Nothing to see here: U.S. Sen. David Perdue, after seeing his portfolio scrutinized and criticized, says his advisers will no longer trade stocks in individual companies.

Kudos to the North Carolina Democratic Party for reminding voters about this: The  pandemic is giving new life to some old comments from North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis.

I talk directly and indirectly to hundreds of people every week. Right wingers troll me ad nauseam.

It is never too late to be an asshole in an election, but I had forgotten that bad coffee king Howard Schultz had announced he was thinking as running as a “centrist independent” for president in 2020.  Turns out that Schultz is taking a “summer hiatus.”  Frankly, he can go...

This year, unlike previous years, it feels particularly egregious to suffer Fox News and their moronic flock’s annual persecution complex over f-ing Starbucks red cups (or whatever) after what they did to promote the actual persecution of immigrants and minorities. 2018 will be remembered as a year the GOP went off...

While conservative Christians prepare to celebrate the War on Christmas season — which they clearly relish more than Christmas itself because, well, there aren’t any Jewish socialists in it — they’ve found another cause célèbre to tide them over. It seems an American “missionary” with a death wish tried to make...

Views on homosexuality differ widely in this country, but the percentage of Americans who think same-sex relations should be flat-out illegal is small and dropping precipitously. Frankly, it’s absurd that anyone thinks sex between consenting adults — no matter what form it takes — should be illegal. In many cases it...

This is what happens when you put a rapey asshole on the Supreme Court, despite every indication that he’s an angry, victim-blaming drunk who’s never atoned for his past.
