He'll probably get the Medal of Freedom.
I reckon I know how they got that name, I'm beginning to think they have "Get Out of Jail Free" stamped on the back.
Oh, no, oh, no! Spontaneous poetic exclamations. Lord, spare me college boys in love.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I've no money to donate, but I'd like to let the megahot diver I saw on CNN know that he's welcome to come over for a shower.

Yeah, I imagine somebody's having crappy long weekend.
ETA: Forget I said that. I imagine the victims of Katrina are having a somewhat worse time than the fuddruckers.com webmaster.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Mike. Brown. Must. Go. Now.
But, you know, he's a GOP activist. And Bush has said what a great job he's doing.
It's a little known fact that Brown is actually his middle name.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hey y'all. I just skimmed a weekend's worth of posts.
This weekend I'm finally going to get around to assembling a Go bag.
Yeah, I guess the denial is not actually the best plan, huh? I'm going to get that Target Red Cross kit, too.
There are some Evil Bunny Alliance recruits who have been waiting for their fangs; instead, they're going to Houston to be helpful and (hopefully) consoling bunnies.
This is the sweetest thing ever, Jilli.
Every time I think it cannot get worse, it does. I'm sick to my stomach.
Uh huh.

You're a giver, Allyson.
Lo! It is time to make pancakes. I haven't had pancakes in a few weeks.
In excellent news, I made waffles this morning, and they were YUM. I totally wish I had a waffle maker now.

Also, Go Fug Yourself has a great compilation of Katrina donation links and stuff. [link] FYI.

Up with the sun
So, and I'm asking this in all seriousness, do we think the country could collapse?
I don't think so, but I agree that another serious crisis -- say, a terrorist attack killing more than 100 people -- could help send us over the edge.
I keep trying to remember that we made it through a civil war and a great depression.
One of my few hopes is that Bush may try to get a quick upswing in his approval ratings by appointing a moderate-seeming, black or hispanic woman to the court. Though if he could find one willing to agree with the administration, she'd probably turn out to be Clarence Thomas in a skirt.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think it takes more to make a country collapse. I'd certainly hope so. Britain had the shit bombed out of it, and it didn't collapse.
Unless no longer being the world power is collapse, in which case -- yeah, I don't have that much empathy.
