Saturday Bag o’ Perfection
That’s not the only lasting effect Trump will have on us. Two hundred years from now mothers will shush fractious children with tales of an orange-faced bogeyman coming to get them in their sleep.
A Cold Reaction to the SOTU
We didn’t watch Trump’s state of the union speech last night and after hearing about it I’m glad we didn’t. Of course everyone’s talking about it on Facebook and Twitter, so it’s not like we missed much.
Sunday Bag o’ Sin
I swear, these God-bothering scolds keep padding their lists.
Thursday Bag o’ Normalization
How is any of this normal? What is wrong with us that we want to pretend it is?
Tuesday Bag o’ Scandal
Lest we forget, Hillary Clinton won nearly three million more votes than Donald Trump. American voters were ready for a woman president in 2016. I would say we’re even more ready in 2020 than we were in 2016 (but I think we’re going to get Joe Biden).
