Song of the Day 4/11: Bob Dylan, “When I Paint My Masterpiece”
This song ran through my head after a visit to the Vermeer exhibition at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The Dutch master was only 43 when he died in 1675 in Delft, and outside of official records very little is known of his life. He remained admired but obscure until the mid-18th century. He was popularized […]

DL Open Thread Monday April 10 2023
i>This is sickening on many levels. One of those levels is knowing that Texas Gov Greg Abbott is Tucker Carlson’s prison bitch. Of course we now know that Carlson is only pretending to be the prison yard shot caller. In reality Carlson is the braying wingnut mob’s bitch.

Poll Results – DL Readers and Lurkers REALLY want Trump to be the GOP’s nominee
It was a blow out. 57% in favor of Trump being the nominee. His loser credentials are undeniable. He is immensely unpopular. He is extremely polarizing. He is a transparent fraud. And his criminal past is (at long last) catching up with him. He makes the race entirely about his sore-loser, butthurt idiocy. He gives voters a stark choice between continuing as a democracy or not.
Of course Democrats want to run against Trump. PLEASE make it so, Republicans.
