I mean, it’s that stage where it’s all we can do just to keep slogging on. We long passed reason. Irony is in the rearview mirror. And we are apparently hurtling towards the sun. Still, thanks, mate. You help me keep going. I means it.
The estimable Mr. Tiedrich is writing a history book in real time. It will be banned reading in schools and public libraries in America but at least the rest of the world will know what actually happened to us.
I dunno. I write about the news, and news gets pretty stale pretty quick. on the other hand, if there are any publishers or literary agents out there reading this, hi there
The name of the book could be, This Is What Really Happened,
(subtitle) - It’s Not What You’ve Been Told
(Sub-subtitle) - No Really, This Actually Happened
(Sub-sub-subtitle) As told by Jeff Tiedrich and his friends whose hair was majorly on fire while everyone else’s was either in the clouds or stuck underground like dumbass ostriches when the godsdamn universe was falling down.
"America especially is into alabaster autocracy these days and plenty of Trumpanzees would probably love it if their Jaundiced Jesus started using NASCAR venues to feed liberals to the lions."
Kevin knows what his job is. He's Zaphod Beeblebrox; his job is to distract from all the crimes and scandals of his colleagues by making an even bigger spectacle of himself.
He graduated from the P. T. Barnum School of politics, not understanding he's the sucker.
My dear Jeff - you are a genius. Somehow you cherry pick and then explain, with choice words, the stupidest of the stupid week. I missed the Kathleen Parker comment and I’m stunned and appalled by that woman’s lack of taste, style and intelligence. I almost couldn’t get past that to the rest of the column and I know the government shutdown is a catastrophe on the way! I don’t know what the hell that woman is seeing when she looks at Donald. There couldn’t be anything uglier than his idea of taste or dress. You could put Chewbacca in the same baggy suit with the ridiculous tie and that creature will look better. Every time we had to look at him as the leader of the country it made me want to puke and hide with embarrassment for the dumbass, creep, criminal, sociopathic, BAD TASTE, idiot he is-was-and always will be.
Every Kathleen Parker column is bad. She thinks she’s a southern bell being gracious, but she’s just a racist with a side of molasses. WaPo has a lot of really terrible rw columnists.
I really hate to see Chewbacca insulted, but I don’t think it was your intention. Just remember, you can’t “unsay” words, but since this is only in type, I think you are safe from Chewy’s fan club. 😉
The more the wingnut orange mafia says, the more my head hurts. But sadly, this misguided propaganda is just what the low IQ voters want to hear. You want to throw a monkey wrench into their agenda? Focus efforts on education -- well educated and well informed voters make smarter decisions.
They’ve immersed themselves in propaganda and actually believe the idiotic shit that they say and do. I think it could take at least a couple generations to de-program people like this: Exhibit A: Germany.......and they’re still working on it 75 years later.
True, but at least they're honest about it, teach about it in schools, don't sugar coat it in hopes of not upsetting anyone, and firmly point the finger at themselves, and not at anyone else. Unlike our right wing gullibulls.
I read and commented on that WaPo column by Parker. She was ranting about the Senate's loosening it's dress code, and Fetterman's way of dressing. I said, "Let me understand this. You think a guy who claims to be a billionaire, yet wears an ill fitting, off the rack suit with a cheap tie made in China that's either red or blue, and is also improperly tied, 'knows how to dress'?!? Remind me not to take your sartorial advice next time I leave the house. Your husband should do the same."
Ole KKKevin McClueless is just pathetic. Trying desperately to keep the narrative that the House has passed anything except a few bills to keep the government open, yet failing miserably. Worst Speaker in the history of the House of Representatives.
He is emboldened to the “not lady.” As well as the other in lady, you know, the one that performs sex acts on video. Gee, didn’t the other not lady recently actually blow(no pun intended)up some photos of a President’s son, who should not be part of the equation???
Clearly media is so desperately concerned that the present administration is competent. This is the last thing they want. Who watches a baseball game when the score is 19-1 in the seventh inning? No one will pay attention to a new poll every five minutes. There has to be some way to make it close. Portraying Trump, as a snappy dresser instead of a corrupt, incompetent, lying, racist, rapist, allies extorting criminal (granted -nothing close to Jeff's adjective world record), while focusing on Biden's age (OMG ... he's 3 years older than the snappy dresser!) will, in the mind of media, tighten up this race.
And there really isn't much else going on in the world (if you discount wars, conflict, fires, flooding and other extreme weather events, the U.S. government held hostage by a group of sociopathic circus clowns who have no business anywhere near elected office (or machinery), and more.
The same media that provides compelling educational programming like 16 and Pregnant, 19 and counting, Are You Hot, Dancing With the Stars (where fallen corrupt electeds go to 'rehab' their reputation and others -are in charge of the 'news' in America. No wonder that Kathleen Parker is on the leading edge of hard-hitting journalism in the U.S.
So people in Beverly Hills smell bad, keep the forest floors wet, irrigate bathrooms and everything will be just fine. What the fuck? And Biden wears sneakers? Is that like tan suit? WHAT THE FUCK?
Add this: Last night speaking in California tfg suggested that some 'land management' was needed and proposed 'dampening the forest with all the water up north'. Genius!
Let us not forget the clown show of Elon, an immigrant from South Africa, going to the border with a hat on backwards (and who knows what the facial hair on his chin is suppose to be) telling other immigrants to stay out of HIS country.
A friend put that ridiculous image on FB and I couldn't stop laughing at his hat on fucking backwards. I wear a cowboy hat down here in Mexico most days and if I did that even as a joke, I'd be laughed out of town!
I think we can agree that Kathleen Parker is the Maggie Haberman of Chuck Todd’s.
Not the Louise Mensch of Alex Joneses?
Gawd...🫣☺️
😄
☺️👏👏👏..That makes my head hurt...
Kathleen Parker is an idiot
Jesse Watters is an idiot
Elon Musk is an idiot
Donald Trump is an idiot
Kevin McCarthy is an idiot
Welcome the cast of Idiotcracy
You might call it a Confederacy of Dunces.
Bravo! Great book, too.
It was and I hope I can find my copy to read again :)
Great potential book title..
Odds fish! The very air abounds in idiots!
👏👏👏👏👌

Same here...

I’ve always thought this. Jeff could take all his newsletters and tweets and put them chronologically in a book, and it would be a bestseller.
I dunno. I write about the news, and news gets pretty stale pretty quick. on the other hand, if there are any publishers or literary agents out there reading this, hi there

…or something like that
btw there is a substack called "Sweary History with James Fell" that everyone who likes my foulmouthed rants should sign up for
https://jamesfell.substack.com/p/on-this-day-in-history-september-7ee
Mr. Fell writes good -
"America especially is into alabaster autocracy these days and plenty of Trumpanzees would probably love it if their Jaundiced Jesus started using NASCAR venues to feed liberals to the lions."
omg, that was so good it made me tingly
NASCAR hates him.
Barely have time for yours.
I think we’ve got the title winner here! 🎉🎉
I mean The Onion makes books, so...
Yes. Never forget The Onion.
Jeff, I eagerly await the publication of any book you choose to write.
Kevin knows what his job is. He's Zaphod Beeblebrox; his job is to distract from all the crimes and scandals of his colleagues by making an even bigger spectacle of himself.

Marc Thiessen comes to mind, what a fuckwit.
There’s so many to choose from, but I agree he’s the worst.
Agree!
I've canceled my subscription, there's nothing worth reading any more.
Kathleen Parker has always sucked.
I stopped watching the news at all. Since 2016. I was ready to scratch my eyes out.
I really hate to see Chewbacca insulted, but I don’t think it was your intention. Just remember, you can’t “unsay” words, but since this is only in type, I think you are safe from Chewy’s fan club. 😉

KKKevin(love this)may call himself Speaker like I can stand in my garage and call myself a car. Saying stupid things doesn’t make them so.
🤣
He is emboldened to the “not lady.” As well as the other in lady, you know, the one that performs sex acts on video. Gee, didn’t the other not lady recently actually blow(no pun intended)up some photos of a President’s son, who should not be part of the equation???
I call him Qevin. Kinda brings all those k’s together.
Thanks for this Jeff.

Kind of like, drinking bleach.
And 'raking'! 🤣
Oh my god. Did he really? Jesus...........
https://www.mediaite.com/trump/trump-offers-californians-a-solution-for-wildfires-dampen-your-floors/
For real.
WTF!!!?!
Truth, stranger than fiction.
Is that after raking?
Your guess is as good as mine!!! What we know for sure is that the dude is some kind of savant. 🤣

Elon is a fucking dipshit. Fire me.
"Say what you want about Kathleen Parker, at least the woman knows how to be wrong." ROTFLMAO!!! Thank you for my Saturday laugh!
Kathleen Parker is Peggy Noonan lite. All of the superiority, none of the intellect.
You nailed it!
