Did you watch the "Kevin McCarthy's tormentors" this week?
I did. During which I kept thinking of this piece published in the Washington Post in 2012 by Norm Ornstein and Tom Mann.
It's difficult to describe how utterly establishment Mann and Ornstein were at the time. One was at Brookings, the other at American Enterprise Institute.
They saw what was happening: The GOP's attack on all institutions. The press didn't want to know. Now it does.

Semafor said today that "a critical mass of conservatives do not trust McCarthy to lead them..."
Conservatives. Is that what they are?
John Boehner's description of the same crowd in his memoir:
"What they're really interested in is chaos... They want to throw sand in the gears of the hated federal government until it fails."
Are the sowers of chaos properly called "conservatives?"
Is MAGA conservative?
Why do #journalists with a commitment to accuracy maintain this fiction?
As a general rule, I hate congressional Republicans, but I love people that make Kevin McCarthy eat shit. I'm having a mildly conflicted evening.
Few things bring me the zen calm of organizing my music library. Just scan, tag, sort. World without end, amen.
The only thing funnier than power metal...

I’ve been using Linux for like 25 years now. I just installed and launched Red Dead Redemption 2 on it. What a trip.
As tragic and stupid as watching Twitter self immolate is, it is nice to see Mastodon light up with new voices. Also nice seeing more and more posts pop up here that aren’t also cross posted to Twitter. It’s dead, Jim. Let it be.
My Mandela-effect moment is thinking Fred Willard played Joe Isuzu. In my defense, he should have.

Not sure why it's so hard to get it to spit out a picture of Richard Nixon slapping a small child. I'm sure that happened all the time.
Decided to try my hand at Stable Diffusion and I think I may have found a new hobby. If I can stay disciplined, learn and refine the tool, well, next year's holiday cards are going to be amazing. And if not, next year's holiday cards are going to be baffling and deeply unsettling. I'm perfectly comfortable with either outcome.
A fun thing about working public sector in NYC is sometimes there are situations where the interpreters need interpreters.
It is the final day of Thanksgiving 2022. I'm ready to say goodbye.
Few things as satisfying as day after thanksgiving chaos plate dinner. Second thanksgiving is awesome.
When i was a kid, I thought draculas bit their victim and used their fangs like straws to suck the blood. I pictured it a lot like drinking a Capri Sun, except the draculas teeth were the straws. I still kinda believe this.
