How I look forward to the evening pix, even when I have nothing to say.

That said, happy anniversary!

(Top photo: don't you just hate it when the sun has to load?)

Let's see:

Kamala Harris started her political career by having an affair with a married politician. So she's a home-wrecker. She then pole-shined her way up LA politics into a DA slot where she put blacks in prison for free labor and tried to keep innocent men in prison.

She married a Jewish guy. The Daily Mail today broke the story that the US media has been covering up for years and years ... that her husband Doug Emhoff cheated on his wife with the babysitter, getting her pregnant (they won't talk about the abortion). Which I guess put him in good stead with Joe Biden, who did the same (that's how he met Jill, the babysitter).

It seems like these aren't the kind of people we can trust.

They seem kind of weird and creepy. Like you don't want to keep your eyes off them if they're around your family or nice-smelling kids.

Happy Anniversary! Not sure why but August 4 is the anniversary of a few happy things in my own life. It’s a good day to do anything momentous it seems. Enjoy.

US Recognizes Opposition Candidate as Venezuela's Election Winner

Isn't THIS, The Definition of Election Denial??
What's Next? an Insurrection?

901 Venezuelan courts have stated that They will say WHAT EVER the government TELLS them to say..
WHO are these Election Deniers to say different?

Narr বলেছেন...

Insty reports that the US, Brits, and Russians have told their folks to get out of Lebanon.

Hooboy.

This is what the world has come to:

Sitting on the couch together, sending text wishing each other Happy Anniversary while they cruise the internet.

The idea..!

Political Junkie বলেছেন...

Glad our hostess did not say, "I love you very much, bro".

FullMoon বলেছেন...

Speaking of tolerance, you know that story about the Colorado baker? Here is a comment on an Althouse post from 2015;

"Wetzel said...

"You make wedding cakes?"
"Yes."
"I'm a gay atheist and I want you to make a cake for me and my boyfriend's wedding."
"No."
"Discriminating against us because we're gay, huh? I'll sick the state civil rights commission on you!"
"No, no, I am Muslim. I only bake wedding cakes for Muslim couples!"
"Oh. okay. I thought you were discriminating against me because I'm gay."
"You know what? I misspoke. I am a Christian. I only bake cakes for Christian couples."
"So you are discriminating against me because I'm gay! Man, by the time I'm through I'm gonna own your stupid bakery!"

Happy Anniversary. And I see the sun co-operated by producing symbolism in the pix - one interesting, one glowing.

Happy Anniversary and many more! You guys are the whole package, and an inspiration to the rest of us poor slobs.

"Senator Tim Scott has gotten married.
He and Mindy Scott were joined by former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and Former Congressman Trey Gowdy."

Jamie বলেছেন...

I've been in this commentariat for going on twenty years - I wish I could remember exactly when I joined. I know we're not friends. But for reasons that aren't mine to share, I want to tell you all - yes, all of you - that I'm glad to be a part of this community, such as it is.

Carry on!

Aggie বলেছেন...

Happy Anniversary and all the best for the coming, golden years!

Gusty Winds বলেছেন...

Very cool. Happy Anniversary.

gadfly বলেছেন...

I am not sure why The Daily Mail found it necessary to report that Kamala's husband cheated on his first wife but failed to mention that Donald Trump cheated on all three of his wives multiple times with multiple partners.

Trump is running for President. Doug Emhoff is not.

Happy anniversary. I love you so much.

I often wish this forum would allow a simple like (👍) to a comment but never as often as today. Happy Anniversary to Meadehouse.

👍👍👍

Gadfly - the last person in the US to discover that Trump cheated on one or more wives. My gawd, is there a person (ok, sentient adult) alive in the US that doesn't know about Trump's various affairs, marriages, children???

Before today, was even .5% of the sentient adult US population aware of Doug Emhoff's affair?

And, of course, the biggest cover-up of all was Joe cheatin' on his first wife with Jill-the-baby-sitter.

But yeah, Trump cheated. O


TickTock বলেছেন...

Happy Anniversary, and may there be many more.

“Trump is running for President. Doug Emhoff is not.”

But Mrs Emhoff is.

wildswan বলেছেন...

I'm going to run for President with a program that says I will require fitted sheets to be labelled long side/short side. The label will include a small diagram showing how to fold fitted sheets. One small step for womankind.

Big Mike বলেছেন...

Well, Gadfly, since you introduced the topic…

From an attractive young black woman speaking at a Trump rally in Georgia:

“Let’s ask Mrs. Willie Brown whether Kamala Harris supports black families.”

walter বলেছেন...

I wish the McCarthy/Gowdy couple many happy anniversaries.
Don't be bitter, MTG.

walter বলেছেন...

Come on, Frank. You knew you were being played for rent money.

Yancey Ward বলেছেন...

Poor Gadfly- the most ignorant fuck in the entire world.

Yancey Ward বলেছেন...

And here is the really hilarious part- if Melania Trump was having sex with the gardener, Gadfly would find it necessary to post about it 3 times a day until the election- and everyone here knows it.

They said the same thing about Hunter, then it turned out that he was a key player in the administration.

It worked for me, and she is that stupid. It would be quite comical if America wasn't in the position Joe Biden put us in....

Kate বলেছেন...

The wedding posts are before my time here, so thanks for the links, Meade!

Congrats, guys.

Lawnerd বলেছেন...

I don’t like Joe Biden at all, and like Jill even less, but Jill was NOT a babysitter for Joe’s kids. Stop spreading bullshit it makes us, us being those opposed to the democrats, look like fools.

mezzrow বলেছেন...

Wishing Althouse and Meade a memorably Happy Anniversary.

Love will find a way, won't it? Congratulations!!

wendybar বলেছেন...

She may not have been a nanny, but she did babysit for Joes kids.....when she was married to the first husband who believed she was cheating on him with Joe...

“’I asked Jill to go with me and she said no — she had things to do, she had to look after Joe’s kids, Beau and Hunter. It was kind of a big deal to go meet Springsteen,” he continued. “I had no idea she and Joe were that kind of friendly."

Happy Anniversary! Keep up the great work!

Humperdink বলেছেন...

Good to see my governor (Shapiro) on record as disparaging the entire Muslim community as unable to self-govern and are “belligerent”. The hits keep coming.

Happy Anniversary!
Now go out and do something fun.

michaele বলেছেন...

Once upon a time, there was a blogger + once upon a time, there was a commenter + Happy Anniversary 15 years later and going strong. Truly, one of my favorite stories ever. Sincerest congratulations.

BUMBLE BEE বলেছেন...

Happy Anniversary you two!

Leland বলেছেন...

Happy Anniversary!

Wife and I hit 25 next April. Be sure to catch up.

Yancey Ward বলেছেন...

Just so those too dumb to know how to get to the Tweet when someone simply posts the unlinked url- for example, people dumb enough to thinks cloud storage has no physical nexus.

Tank বলেছেন...

Wow, so this confirms I've been reading here for more than 15 years. Woo boy!

Congrats to MeadHouse !!!

For those too stupid to use a non-linked url- for example, someone who might believe cloud storage has no physical nexus.

One small step for womankind.

Putting aside the sexism of the implication of the comment that only women fold fitted sheets (ok, I think it's pretty likely that only women, and indeed not all of us, fold fitted sheets), I would vote for the candidate who labeled the sides.

Another small step for this avatar of womankind: when I learned how to fold flat sheets so that when I'm remaking a bed I can just stand at the foot, lay the folded sheet on the bed, unfold, unfold, unfold from where I'm standing, and then floof the top edge toward the head of the bed and it billows into place. So satisfying...

But in vain have I tried to impart this knowledge to my mother-in-law, so she still scurries around from one side of the bed to the other when putting on the flat sheet.

Jamie বলেছেন...

Hit Publish too soon.

I meant to call out the excellent tome (and it is one, 896 pages) Home Comforts, by Cheryl Mendelson, a New York lawyer whose dirty little secret is that she cleans her own house. It's a frigging masterpiece in its probably utterly unwarranted attention to every tiny detail of how to take care of household stuff, and in its conviction that this way is the best way.

But sometimes, as with the flat sheet folding, she is absolutely correct.

Big Mike বলেছেন...

(ok, I think it's pretty likely that only women, and indeed not all of us, fold fitted sheets)

@Jamie, you’d be wrong.

Another small step for this avatar of womankind: when I learned how to fold flat sheets so that when I'm remaking a bed I can just stand at the foot, lay the folded sheet on the bed, unfold, unfold, unfold from where I'm standing, and then floof the top edge toward the head of the bed and it billows into place. So satisfying...

I’d pay good money to learn that trick.

Big Mike বলেছেন...

@Jamie, you answered my question before I asked it. Much obliged. I assume the book is available via the Althouse Amazon portal?

Kamala’s husband is all for abortion because it means he doesn’t have to support the bastards of all the nannies he knocks up.
