Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
My friend Caped Crusader has been sending me wonderful cartoons, ranging from the politically profound to the completely ridiculous. They deserve a post of their own . . . and this is that post:

Trying to work, but the interruptions never stop! Still, here are pictures:

I’ll be away all day tomorrow, first doing an activity with the kids, and then listening to this year’s best a cappella groups (although this wonderful group from Israel won’t be there). I therefore hope that this post gives you lots of interesting stuff to read on Saturday. Pro-Trump? Anti-Trump?
Continue readingI have paying legal work I need to do over the next few hours but, fortuitously, I also have what seems like an unending number of political and silly cartoons (or “memes,” as all of them seem to be called today). I hope you enjoy them:
Continue readingI have a business meeting this morning, which normally would have meant no morning post. However, my friend Wolf Howling sent me such an interesting email, I’m turning it into today’s Bookworm Beat: From Glenn Reynolds at USA Today: Because political leaders’ chief concern is their own power and position, they’re

I’m back, and still playing beat the clock when I blog, so let me get right down to business: Just one thing about Target’s preexisting open bathroom policy. You may not have known about Target’s long-standing open-access bathroom policy (all gender identities welcome wherever they want), but it appears that
Continue readingToday’s challenge is to see how many articles I can bring to your attention in the 20 minutes before I head off for the dojo to punch and kick my political blues away. Here goes: UNESCO tries to erase Jewish history. The world would be a better place without the

I think I’m supposed to call all of these posters “memes.” But you know what? To me, they’re still “posters.” The other thing I can tell you is that there are a lot of them. These should keep you entertained for a long time.

Sorry for the blog slow-down, but my sister and I are busy sorting through my Mom’s things. It’s been a surprisingly pleasant task. She and I don’t see each other often, so it’s nice to be together. Also, we’re remarkably in sync about Mom’s stuff — what gets tossed, what gets

At last — this long cartoon nightmare is now over. You’re at Part 3 of 3, clearly having survived the preceding two cavalcades of political cartoons. Nothing’s left but the silly and wise stuff. (Check out Part 1 and Part 2.)

An embarrassment of riches — that’s what I have when it comes to political cartoons and posters, as well as wise snippets and plain old silly stuff. You can find Part 1 here and Part 3 here. And as before, no trigger warnings. You have to face these images on

My website was down for two hours! It was traumatic, but I spent the time in my safe space (dog, chocolate, book), and am now refreshed and ready to face the world with a sterling illustrated edition. In defiance of convention, I will not issue a trigger warning. You’re own
Continue readingIf you haven’t read Jerome K. Jerome’s charming Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, first published in 1886, I recommend it. It is a pleasant antidote to today’s Sturm und Drang. But if you like to be mentally perturbed, you can’t do better than to read this post. All animals
Continue readingSometimes I’m so slow to come up with a solution to a problem that I amaze even myself. Case in point: how best to sort posters and cartoons so that I can group them by subject in these illustrated editions. I was reviewing each file separately, which took forever because
