Unions get flags? I want a flag.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Dear women of Oklahoma,
California is quite nice almost year round, and we consider you to be people.

The status is NOT quo.
Thanks for sparking my nightmares!
Just call me the ita ! of literary allusions.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, jesus, I saw a reference to that Wisconsin flag story earlier, and I could not work out what they were talking about. I've never seen the Wisconsin state flag before, and that's all that flag could be in my head. A Wisconsin 1848 union flag made and continues to make no sense.
Someone give me money, okay?
Right, tripping on down the list of random things I recorded, and now it's Something Borrowed, which is Ginnifer Goodwin being totally man-stupid again, and I don't understand a) how these movies get made and b) why I feel a compulsion to actually watch the crap I recorded during some obviously more hormonal moment.
And, basically, I don't effectively get hormonal.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think he was thinking 1848 was a union local number.

I get that, but it's sufficiently stupid that I don't get it as a destination. Are there really *that* many jobs titled Wisconsin that they get union representation?

Also that there are 1848 chapters of the "Wisconsin" union.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I don't what's bugging me worse today about all the wicked politics, the stupid people or the evil people. Or that that the evil people are stupid. I don't have the energy to argue with all the stupid! You have to start so far back into their base assumptions and they're filled to the brim with misinformation, falsehood and petty resentments. That's why I need Rachel Maddow and Jon Stewart. I might have to watch them both tonight.
My hope is that the stupidity eventually proves to ineffectual and blundering, but my fear is that stupidity is just the right way to win elections in America.

My fear is that stupidity, like entropy, is in the end inevitable.

If the economy goes into the toilet, then I say yeah. But things are getting better. (It's funny how Fox is saying the recent employment info must be fake. Except it's less funny when you think how Republicans end up with their own set of facts about everything.)
