If someone breaks laws and you choose not to hold them accountable, you have effectively rescinded said laws. That applies to constitutions as well. This is an immutable, non-negotiable fact. Any analysis of what Democrats should do once they regain power that does not acknowledge this is worthless

Thrilled to see @rosstuckerpod.bsky.social on the #NEPatriots Bills broadcast. Been a fan for ages and ages.

Great moments in Scottish engineering history: James Watt tries to work out how his phone attaches to his selfie stick.
Statue of James Watt. In his right hand he holds a telescopic stick with a frame at the top; in his left he holds a flat object about the size of a large smartphone. He is scowling at the possibly-not-a-smartphone as if he is tempted to yeet it into the sea. On that basis, it probably _is_ a phone.

While we were in the neighborhood we visited the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Hall of busts was the best part!

My family obviously played a dastardly trick on me by making me a #RedSox fan. They must have secretly all hated me.

Pisses me off seeing Bregman. Dude got mashed in the face and came back (that wasn't no pinky!), and hitting way better than Durbin right now. #RedSox

Great. So when the #RedSox do finally win, it actually hurts them in the postseason. Bummer.

Is it possible that tRump will issue a blanket pardon for everyone in the GOP for all crimes committed in the past and in the future? Can he do that? How do we freakin' fix something like that?

So tonight's #SNW season finale almost made me weep for all the pointlessness we watched almost all this season. It was a really good #StarTrek episode.

Freakin' Durbin is an outs machine. He is where all ground balls to the left side go to die. He is the Durbinator. #RedSox

Shouting now at the teevee (and the #WEEI radio broadcast) "Game? Guys, GAME???" DGMW, I love me some Pedro, but let's be real here. I didn't tune in tonight to listen to Pedro interviews, I tuned in to watch and listen to a ballgame. Sorry, pet peeve. #RedSox

I swear if I have to watch one more inning where the #RedSox load the bases and fail to score, I'm shutting this game off. SO OVER IT.

So I hadda pee, and when I saw it was 2 outs and Mona coming, I felt free to go take care of bidness. I was correct. Hopefully we can avoid having him on the post season roster... (I'll have to drink my water earlier in the day, but it'll surely be worth it!) #RedSox

Okay, sure, #RedSox, 2 on, no outs. This ends scoreless or I'm not a hard core Sox fan... Fool me once, won't get fooled again.
