Did Trix offer to send them one of those cakes we liek"? Although I'm not sure it qualifies as a true 'Dear shitforbrains' letter if it doesn't mention the vile snark mob or comments...

One of my favorite "dissatisfied reader" comments was directed at the wild prose of the Victorian author Thomas Carlyle. A reader of some of his work published serially wrote in to say, "Let us have no more of this." Elegant!

Responding to newsletters sounds like a good use of time for MAGA volunteers.

Interesting, thanks. Most of the ad's remarks ring true. Trump often seems diminished and confused. Of course, many people are also pointing out that he is a diabolical fascist dictator in the making, which may introduce some cognitive dissonance. I tend towards the latter view: although I think he's starting to show his age, he seems to me capable of becoming a nasty, even energetic, fascist dictator. Hate keeps him going at a pretty fast clip. Sometimes the Lincoln Project aims its ads at Trump himself, not so much at voters. This ad is probably in that category, so it could prove effective.

These people used to be able to write multipage screeds ranting about everything from secret pacts between the British Crown and the Papacy to why the local paper was reprinting Pravda word for word. This is a tragic day for modern education and grand conspiracy stories. I blame the Jewish Space Lasers of MTG for being set on "lobotomize".

You know, people, I have actual work I need to get done. [This has been a public service announcement by the remaining shreds of my dying productivity.]

I'm pretty sure Wonkette has been sneaking out and getting drunk, smoking cigarettes, etc., for awhile now.

I'd like to think that, at age 20, Wonkette is a coquettish lass who flirts with us so we'll buy it beer and smokes. And the cakes we like.

I can't post image here coz phone. But the best ever complaint is that posted up in the window of a Scottish chippo. It is in response to the local Health Dept closing it down to a mouse infestation. It is in Scots too, so it is glorious. It finishes with the writer remarking that he feels that the inspectors are pudenda.
