I’ve found a glitch in the matrix—quite frequently of late I will hear or think a not-so-common word or phrase and then immediately see it in whatever I am reading, like as the first word. I’m sure it’s happened before in my life but it’s happened almost daily this past week.

It’s a great idea, every 10 year old knows that fences stop algae.

Fencing going up around Reflecting Pool

The Susquehanna is weird because it would clearly be considered one of the world’s great rivers if it were located anywhere other than “the country that got sixty world-class rivers to transport its infinite bounty of every raw material known to mankind”

@EsotericCD Turns out the ol’ formula of just bluster until reality changes or people move on doesn’t work with a voluntary war you can’t end on your own.

@HeerJeet When you fuck up big time, you console yourself with the little things you do right. When those go wrong, you feel like you’re a complete loser.

@JamesSurowiecki I can’t help but marvel at the dual track of Iran and the Pool, constantly declaring victory only to have reality come crashing down just a couple days later. Maybe come winter the algae really will die.

I hate to bang on this stupid drum but the reflecting pool stuff is the dumbest shit imaginable. Can’t possibly tell the emperor it was a bad plan that wouldn’t work, so there will be increasingly stupider responses to it, with hundreds of people doing awful jobs to support it.

@EsotericCD OMG he’s so close to Hershey.

@GregTSargent @mattyglesias The only way that paint could have peeled was someone cut it up with a knife. It was perfect paint. The most beautiful paint you ever saw.

[BC @TheMayor3]

@EsotericCD So they really convinced him all that was because of the one dude? What happens when we do this all over again in a couple weeks?

Dumbest timeline.

“done”

[BC @TheMayor3]

@nypost @EsotericCD You can do that? If you have a bad leader doing a poor job, you can just get a new one?

A reflecting pool is supposed to show you the truth. This one actually does.

Trump promised a fresh coat, bright and bold, American flag blue, covering everything that came before. The reality is paint clumped, peeled, and curdled into a swampy green sludge, floating in ugly little islands across the water.

A no-bid contract handed to a guy whose price ballooned past $14 million and counting.

Cheap materials and no plan for what happens when it dries.

And when it inevitably falls apart, they blame the water, the weather, the paint, political opponents, and anyone but the people holding the brush.

Meanwhile the Interior Department’s social media reads like a North Korean state broadcast, breathlessly hailing the dear leader while crews stand vacuuming algae off the bottom.

Honestly, you could not write a better metaphor for this presidency if you tried.

@danpfeiffer He definitely is an expert on what it takes to be weird, strange, bizarre, and totally unelectable.

[BC @TheMayor3]

@EsotericCD It would be nice if a lot of the right people started getting sick of this shit.

[BC @TheMayor3]

@EsotericCD Skyline hot sauce on its own is pretty damn good

@davidfrum Conservatives will suddenly think FDRs CCC was revolutionary policy.

[BC @TheMayor3]

@JakeSherman Always someone else’s fault, the emperor was never wrong.

[BC @TheMayor3]

@HeerJeet He should just do what Trump did and get the court to decide he can’t be tried for anything.

[BC @TheMayor3]

Why why why does he always have to explain what ID means in these posts?
