Wonkette is one of my life's great pleasures, I hit it every morning and evening.

I subscribe, though my contribution is minuscule (unemployed.) Subscribing lifts my spirits during this horrible time in our history. Do it if you can.

I'm so glad I am a subscriber, even though my contribution is paltry. Do it, it will make you feel better too.

Telling one of the cats that I needed to get to bed early tonight, and then I looked at the clock. Dammit.

Pretty much nightly here...as I said to a friend ...I go down late/early... depending on what time you go down/get up. Total reverse of my working days.

I am looking forward to a time when my sleep ends because I am refreshed, not driven by the alarm clock.

I took a few days off of reading anything, especially about politics. I fucking missed Corey Booker kicking racist ass for a whole 25 hours. 😡

I hope my fellow Wonkettes are well and in good spirits. I've missed reading your comments these last few days.

He surely did. It was the Cory Booker dancing-on-Throm’s-grave 25-hour marathon.

His closing words were awesome, brought tears to my eyes. About time someone broke Strom's record, anyone remember he fathered a child with (gasp) a black woman? Talk about hypocrisy.

There are probably tons of videos on youtube, but it isn’t the same as watching history in the making.

Please don't tell you have to shovel by hand.

Har har. Seriously, though, that's got to be at least a few hours of back-breaking work.

Sometimes the snow is just fluff, and I can mostly clear it away with a big broom. But a handful of times this winter we had big snows generously interleaved with rain. That was rough, that was like shoveling wet concrete. It took about four hours to do my decks, and then a hot bath wouldn’t even touch the boo-boo.

WoT a whiner.

Now that he’s lost charge him with trying to bribe votes for an election.

That’s still illegal and it would be nice if he faced consequences for even one of his illegal actions

Rebecca reached out to me years ago and asked for a weekly cocktail column after I explained what "orgeat" is in the comments section. It has been my honor and pleasure to keep you lot supplied with booze every week since then. I'll cut you a deal - subscribe, and I promise that I'll get the cocktail book started this year. No idea how it will go, but I've got hundreds of recipes to work with, and I'd love to compile them into something beautiful.

Holy cow, I splurged tonight to celebrate buying a new car and ordered a Domino's gluten-free pepperoni pizza. I very rarely do this because it costs $23 with the tip, but I've ordered this same pizza from Dominos many times. I ate 3 pieces. Fifteen minutes later I suddenly felt very nauseous and I barely made it to the bathroom before it all came up like a volcano. I feel fine now that it's gone. I have no idea what was wrong with that pizza, but whatever it was, it worked fast. Sadly, I now have to throw away the other half. I called the store to tell them, and they insisted nothing was wrong with their pizzas, but obviously something was wrong. That was LITERALLY $23 down the drain. I think I'll go heat up a can of soup now...
