- Twenty years ago, we all went to bed blissfully unaware that our world would change forever the following morning.
- With Thursday’s announcement of vaccine requirements, Biden verbalized the frustration of the vast majority of Americans: we did the right thing by getting vaccinated; now it’s time for the non-vaccinated conservatives to do what’s best for America. They claim they would take a bullet for America, but they won’t take a shot.
- Biden gave anti-vaxxers a choice with three options: get vaccinated, get tested every week, or get a new job. They’re now having a temper tantrum because they don’t want to make a responsible choice.
- Conservative pundits continue to harp on Biden’s December promise to get the coronavirus under control being defeated by the current surge. Biden made the statement when the vaccine was just announced, not understanding tens of millions of people would be brainwashed to fight an effective vaccine.
- On the eve of the 20th anniversary of 9/11, steel yourself for Republican talking heads declaring that GW Bush, like Trump, kept America safe.
- The Lee statue was dismantled (and sent to Goochland!). The sole remaining statue on Monument Avenue in Richmond now is one dedicated to Arthur Ashe.
- Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis are battling Donald Trump for the title of most hated man in America, which means they’re the frontrunners for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.
- Don’t count chickens before the California recall is finished, but should Newsom prevail, it will be due to healthy turnout by independents and Democrats, something that has been a weakness in off-year elections but a good harbinger for the midterms.
- Tonight might be the last night Real Time with Bill Maher is scheduled on my DVR. I’ll let you know in an hour.
- Any elected official who supports the Texas abortion law (or any one of the multitude of copycats popping up) needs to resign for violating their oaths to defend the Constitution. The laws are written intentionally to subvert the rule of law. You can’t simultaneously defend the Constitution and subvert it.
- Last weekend, we took Doggo to a pup-friendly pub to celebrate his adoptiversary. Doggo probably still doesn’t understand why he got a trip to his favorite toy store AND his own plate of french fries. But we’re thanking him for picking us.
- Best comedic characters to come out of Saturday Night Live (in no specific order): Roseanne Roseannadanna, the Coneheads, Gumby, Wayne & Garth, and Cecily Strong as Drunk Jeanine. But its best characters ever weren’t necessarily comedic. They were Jake and Elwood Blues… the Blues Brothers. If you want to research this yourself, you can save yourself some time by skipping the 90’s.
- This is my favorite time of year, when the air is mostly cool and crisp, with multiple sportsballs in the air. Take some time to go outside and have a catch with someone.
