DL Open Thread: Sunday, October 17, 2021
“Their (Black Christians) voices contradicted the proposition that America is the story of the gradual expansion of freedom and opportunity to a wider and wider group of people,. The moral claim laid upon us by their ancestors’ insistent voices is continual awareness that racial inequity was interwoven into the fabric of our society from the […]
Coons Has Doubled His Net Worth While in the Senate
Chris Coons assumed office on November 15, 2010. His net worth was: $5,281,178 Now Coons is worth a cool $10,100,000. That’s a 91.2452% increase. Probably not corrupt at all. Just, you now, savvy investing.
DL Open Thread: Saturday, October 16, 2021
Kathy McGuiness Has No Shame. Of course, that’s a ‘dog bites man’ headline. But this isn’t: Delaware Auditor Kathy McGuiness has asked a local judge to make taxpayers foot the bill for her legal defense as she fights criminal corruption charges. A seven-page motion filed by her private attorney, Steve Wood, on Thursday cites a Delaware […]
Song of the Day 10/15: Lemonheads, “Into Your Arms”
The Lemonheads might have been the most commercially viable jangle-pop band of the early ’90s, and this was their biggest hit. Like many of Evan Dando’s best songs, it’s melodic, a little melancholy and it clocks in at under 3 minutes. It spent nine weeks at No. 1 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart, though […]

BREAKING: Rep. Paul Baumbach Running For Reelection. I wrote a speculative piece, turns out it was fiction. At least in part: I am running for re-election, to continue to serve the residents of the 23rd RD https://secure.actblue.com/donate/committee-to-elect-paul-baumbach-1 I do not know Rep Ramone’s plans. That National Ecumenical And Non-Partisan Prayer Breakfast? Not so non-partisan or […]
Flag of the Day – The No Quarter Black on Black American Flag
Aside for a few “moderate” and centrist Democratic fools, like Chris Coons, we all knew the right would go batshit if Trump wasn’t made president for life. They have. Now they have a new flag to show how eager they are to throw the constitution on the trash and start some bloodshed in support of […]
Maybe we don’t need so much stuff?
If covid allowed people to wake up to the fact that they don’t need that crap job – maybe the constipated port of Los Angeles will teach us that we really don’t need to so much shit.
Song of the Day 10/14: Gary Bartz, Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, “Day By Day”
Guest post by Nathan Arizona The title says “Jazz Is Dead,” but they don’t mean it. I guess you could say it’s ironic. Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad’s recording series by that name features plenty of jazz. But they mix it up with soul, R&B, hip-hop and some electronics. This is almost nothing like […]
Who Is Retiring? Paul Baumbach Or Mike Ramone?
If what DD wrote over at Blue Delaware is accurate–that Mike Ramone has been drawn into the 23rd District, currently represented by Baumbach, then the maps tell me that one of the two is retiring. Otherwise, you’ve taken Ramone out of the 21st District, and placed him in the same district as Baumbach. So, yes, […]
Trump warns US that Republicans will sit out future elections unless his dumb election fraud claim is “solved”
“If we don’t solve the Presidential Election Fraud of 2020 (which we have thoroughly and conclusively documented), Republicans will not be voting in ’22 or ’24. It is the single most important thing for Republicans to do.” – President Donald J. Trump, 10/13/21 It is a bold electoral strategy.
Flag of the Day – Romania & Chad
This is a twofer. The national flags of Romania and Chad are tricolor with vertical stripes, beginning from the flagpole: blue, yellow and red. They have a width-length ratio of 2:3. The Romanian flag is identical to the state flag of Chad. They’ve been arguing over the flag since 1989. It seems like an easy […]
