I’ve got to say, Roy, the notion of Clarence and Ginni going at it is so revolting, it’s almost enough to make me wish you’d bring back Jared and Ivanka’s sex dolls.

The idea of Clarence Thomas over me getting ready to come almost restores my faith in the concept of eternal damnation.

GODDAMNIT ROY!!!! Now I have to spend the rest of the day trying to poke my mind's eye out! UGH!

I will admit I was surprised that there would be any time at all between the butler stuffing the cash bag into the hole and hearing the thump when it landed far below. I would have figured Clarence and Ginni to have the entire basement filled to the floor joists with cash by this point, so the butler would have needed a jackhammer to make this one last bag of gold coins fit.

Ick, a thousand times ick. Thomas was exposed as a privileged asshole at his hearing and it’s amazing it’s taken until now to expose just how affirmative his actions with the oligarchy have been. Among the “gifts” Republicans have bestowed on America, the World’s Worst Black Man ranks near the top. As to his bugfuck crazy wife, her mindless conspiracy counter factuals are the perfect complement to a man who wouldn’t recognize his true place in history if the moving hand wrote it on his bathroom wall.

My immediate boss is actually a pretty good Lefty.

He's not as rabid about it as let's say, me. ( I describe myself as more, like, obsessive)

One day last month out of the blue he starts talking about Clarence' s close relationship with Harlan Crow and how the Supreme Court was evidently corrupt AF. He was angry about it. I found that pretty gratifying. Maybe we get lucky and more people notice this then we expect.

( I gotta be honest. I'm not convinced Harlan Crow is a real person. He sounds like a character in an Elmore Leonard novel. A guy with George Jones Hair & glasses that don't look right on his big round head with chunky cheeks. He wears a lot of polyester and drives an 82 Sedan DeVille, the last year they had a real Detroit V8 and not some piece of shit Canadian North Star engine. He makes his money getting little Puerto Rican boys to crawl up under cars with a Sawzall to cut out the catalytic converters. He pays the kids 25 bucks a piece. Once a week he drives them to junkyard down in Toledo where he gets $85 for them no questions asked. One time he tried pimping out a couple of sisters that lived in the apartment upstairs from him. That went okay until he went to smack them around a little bit like he heard he was supposed to do. They beat the shit out of him and took to turning tricks for themselves. Now he hides every time he sees them.)

" “Bitch! Puerto Rican bitch!” in a low voice, and scribbles furiously."

Has the ring of truth.

My buddy Jack, a fine carpenter, and artist, and gay guy, does woke around Tybee Island GA: one well heeled client, impressed by his work, invited Jack to a little gathering where "you can meet Clarence Thomas!"

"Why the hell would I want to meet that asshole?"

So he lost the client, and says "good riddance."

Just never, ever do the Roberts or the Alitos, that would be Zap Comix level gross ( think Cap’n Pissgums and Ruby the Dyke Pirate meet the Green Demon level gross).

Day’um, now I’m contemplating and rumination about Thomas’ Johnson 😵‍💫.

Meanwhile, I’m sure we’re all at least aware of the Times’ recent “profile” of Amerikkka’s most beloved Black SCOTGOP justice. Meanwhile, the Times and the rest of the media are cool with this coverage because it’s safe to presume that nothing will be done about SCOTGOP’s corruptions.

"...a gigantic cinched sack with a dollar sign on it." LOL! It really IS that obvious!

This is absolutely perfect, spot-on in its portrayal of the Thomases’ sordid depravity, and I think I’m going to be sick.

"My work is reversing all those crazy laws giving special rights to all kinds of people, including no-‘count colored folk want a free ride to college."

I know this is fiction because he's not as humongous piece of shit as he is in real life, and he doesn't then trash his sister for being a welfare queen, as he did in a speech in 1980: "She gets mad when the mailman is late with her welfare check. That’s how dependent she is... What’s worse is that now her kids feel entitled to the check too. They have no motivation for doing better or getting out of that situation."

His sister, who worked two minimum-wage jobs while Clarence was in law school, was only on welfare for four years to take care of an elderly aunt who'd had a stroke. Then she went back to work as a hospital cook. Thomas only gets mad when his vacay money doesn't arrive from Harlan on time, or when Leo Leo delivers a bag of money without having Ginni's name removed first.
