What a huge fucking relief. Thank you, black voters of Alabama, for sending Roy Moore packing.
Screw you, Roy Moore, but not that poor horse you rode in on.
Roy Moore rides away on his horse after voting in the Alabama Senate election.

Roy Moore not conceding is very very on-brand for a son of the confederacy.

One more dancing dog because why not?
Weird. The original war on Christmas was feminist.
If you squint hard. π
It’s a neat bit of history – had no idea it existed.
Ugh. The temperature is only -1 F right now. Windchills to get down to 35 below tonight. I’m glad to be headed home. I can stay indoors until it warms up a bit Wednesday.
I hope everyone else has better weather today!

Dammit, I got my hopes up. Still, just like with Trump, it is fun seeing their platforms go dark, if only temporarily
@WWTH
You still living in Minnesota, or did you transfer out to the 9th circle? O.o
Hovering just above freezing down here, windchill just below. Stay warm folks, especially up northeast and the Lakes. And stay complimentarily cool, southern hemispherians π
@Errybody
Merries and happies, y’all! π
A real War on Christmas is even older than 1900
Short podcast on the banning of Christmas by English Puritans in the wake of the English Revolution

A quote, “If you combine fun and Popery, well then you’ve got something the Puritans would very much like to kill stone dead.”
@Axe
Damn. Three stories I cross checked, all said the same thing. Now they go and change it! π I were hoping too – dislike Assange as much as I dislike anyone.
@Joe
Cromwell were an odd sort, weren’t he. Miserable as hell.
@WWTH
Not much warmer here in the Detroit area. Temps in the upper single digits and still snowing.
Safe travels!
@abars01
Don’t worry. You’re right. Don’t listen to Shadowplay. Shadowplay’s just being an edgy Pessimist.
That’s why I don’t comment here, much. Pessimists are ridiculous.
Oi, lay off Shadowplay! He may be somewhat pessimistic, but he’s far too smart and sweet to be edgy π π
Sorry about that. It’s just that abars01 need encouragement and hope. I’ve been where abars01 has been and I needed at least one person to tell me that it’ll be okay.
@SpukiKitty,
No problems. I get what you’re saying, and I was 95% joking. All good ??
Only just saw this – I don’t get notifications.
Thank you, Mish! That is nice of you to say π
Hi SpukiKitty! I recognize your name f9r FSTDT! Good times ?
