Desperately Restarting A Defunct Plotline.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Spider's Web.

And as we wonder if this time around we're finally going to see Ian's face, I just want to say what thoroughly revolting characters the twins have turned into, a pair of whiny, entitled bigots who put a front of bold superiority to cover being a pair of cowards who fear anything different or new, and blame everyone else for the obvious results of this. They're good proof of Raylan Givens famous maxim--"If you run into an asshole now and then, well, that's life. If everybody you run into is an asshole--no, you're the asshole." They're young women with the soul of a cantankerous old man.

'Cause, yeah, that's what they are.

The Only Reason He Isn't Saying 'Kinder, Kuche, Kirche' Is Because It's In German.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Great Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok.

There's something so unbelievably sad about Muir's pretend family, while also being grotesque and disgusting. 

POSTSCRIPT--And three days after starting early, Muir drives his latest fund drive into a tree. 

So, Does He Like Rubio, Or Does He Not Like Rubio?

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Secret of Treasure Island.

Rubio these days reminds of that famous bit in A Man for All Seasons, where More comments to Richard Rich, the man who's perjured himself to help destroy More for a fairly insubstantial reward, that he could at least understand a man selling his soul for the world, but selling it for Wales baffles him. The man's given up every scrap of dignity he had--which to be fair was not much--to be Trump's gofer.

And when it is done, he will watch the cult that he's doing it for splinter into pieces, while those like him find themselves likely paying a greater price than the fool they've done it all for.

The Astonishing Thing Is Muir Thinks She's MORE Likable Now.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Mysterious Pilot.

"Also, I was created by a creepy cartoonist who started wanting to hatefuck me, so he just changed my politics to turn me into someone he'd find less objectionable."

And The Begging Bowl Appears Early.

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Jungle Menace.

As we see Muir doing the usual bit where he insists that he and his are somehow the bold rebels despite literally holding power at the moment, and applauding things like the VRA getting gutted because anything that balances the scales has to be an evil, corrupt conspiracy against the natural order of dumb white guys feeling like they're better off, let's note the begging bowl.

Two weeks before it came out last year--where it came out early. Of course, it also made an even earlier appearance last year, and then vanished to come out a bit later, so let's see how it goes.

He Insists All Is Well While Curling Up Into A Ball And Crying...

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Black Coin.

Remember what I said yesterday?

Because if anything, this is worse. Muir is desperately putting his hope that some grand plan, some cagey scheme is going on and soon, SOON, the Democratic Party shall pay! What is it? He doesn't know. But something has to happen, because otherwise, things are looking very grim for his side.

"Th-They Are All Fuh-Fuh-Filthy Puh-Puh-Pedos...."

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Clutching Hand.

Man. As vile and morally bankrupt as all this is, it's also just so pathetic. This is Muir crashing out in real time, staring at a reality that looks very bad for him, shutting his eyes, and desperately trying to insist that it is something else entirely. The last time I saw him this bad was way back in 2020 when he was trying to convince himself that no, no, Biden hadn't won, it was all a trick, all a trick, Trump was going to throw all the Democrats in prison any day now.

It's gonna be a crazy year, folks.
