Hold On To Your Butts: Tuesday Open Thread

LATE ADDITION: One our own lost her husband earlier today. She has had the courage and kindness to share their journey over the past months in our comments section. You have supported them through these hard days, and made sure they knew we were with them. This is the best of our website- our community. Spare a thought for GumbyGirl in the midst of tonight’s chaos.

 

Whelp, here we are. Four years of anticipation, anxiety and effort, crammed into one night.

That’s right: the Olympics kicks off in…

Wait, what?

Didn’t we just do this?

Fuuuck….

Fine. By the time you read this, polls will have started closing. Millions of complete fucking idiots will cast their votes for a brain-rotted rapist. His following of idiots and fascists (and both!) are openly enjoying the prospect of inflicting massive human suffering on innocent children and executing their political opponents.

Our best hope is that people with any amount of decency slightly outnumber them.

Normally I would apologize for my bluntness and making some of you feel bad for your political choices. But the only modification, disclaimer or softening I offer tonight is that my views are my own, and do not represent the official position of DoorFliesOpen, nor necessarily those of any other owner or author.

Feel free to cuss me out in the comments. Hopefully the madness gripping you and your party breaks like a fever.

There were some NFL trades today. The only one I care about was WR Jonathan Mingo going from Carolina to Dallas for a fourth rounder. On balance, Dallas paid more for Mingo than they got for Amari Cooper. That makes me happy.

Oddly enough, one of Mrs. Sharkbait’s best friends moved from Honolulu to Oregon for her husband’s job. There’s a not zero chance I’ll be there at some point soon

Condolences Gumby Girl.
Say not in grief he is no more
But live in thankfulness that he was
