First Draft is one of my favorite blogs. They’re doing a fundraiser if you like their stuff and have the ca-ching.
As always, I’d like to thank all you underground motherfuckers for keeping it real, so feel free to pimp your own blog in the comments as well.

Athenae
Thanks so much, Doug! And thanks to everybody who has kicked in so far and who plans to.
I heart the Interwebs.

If you say so.
I have finally decided to take my flower photography seriously. I now have a site with a blog attached. It’s all very new, so I need advice from the pros. Tell me what you think.

Thanks Doug for the invitation to pimp. My wife blogs personal reflections from Santa Fe as the Barefoot Vegan Chick, at http://anastasiaalston.com/.
Glad that John’s call to support rising bloggers has led you FP’s to these kinds of posts. :)

An invitation? Well, don’t need to ask me twice:
The Rolled Up Newspaper is a one person freebie full of lame jokes, good pictures, and general dancing in the face of Doom.
Please share your bad motel stories.

OK, I just want to make a comment on something mistermix said in the previous post:
That what does not kill you makes you stronger.
The relentless attacks of the GOP on Obama have made him that much more formidable, and the GOP is too fucking blinded by racism to figure it out.

Really? I’m supposed to financially support some asshat who says shit like this?
“I found this particularly interesting because yesterday while listening to Barack Obama’s first press availability on the Libya murders, it struck me that his voice still rang with the same undisguised narcissism it always conveys (there was no hint of emotion for the death of Americans).”
Fuck you and them.

@donovong: Uh, reading comprehension fail. That was quoting a freeper.
Linda Featheringill
BTW, Redstate has admitted that Obama is winning the election at this point.

Lovely comments, too.
Go ahead and read it. I haz a happy and it might lift your spirits, too.

@donovong: I don’t see where this was posted at First Draft. You have a link?
Athenae
@Linda Featheringill: This is pure gold:
“People buy what Barry is selling all day long and it’s for a reason.
Reason being they have never been taught to think critically and objectively , and gettin’ freebies ‘n’ stuff is more important than 6 weeks/6 months/6 years from now.”
You fuckers are just too stupid to understand! Be less stupid! Vote Romney because I’ve told you you’re a fucking moron!
That’s always a winner.
And @donovong, Tommy quotes the Freeperati’s most unhinged comments every Monday morning. What you’re citing is one of those comments.

Okay, my bad. That was some fail on my part. I missed the cut and paste job they did. Mea culpa.

@Linda Featheringill:
The stupid over there…if it was unleashed on the west, every national forest would be going up in flames.
These morons actually think that what they do is critical thinking. It is to laugh.

@Linda Featheringill:
I tried, but I couldn’t get past the whining about the reporters who are trying to get their god-king elected. I can only assume he’s mad that they’re not reporting about how Obama is actually a Kenyan Muslim atheist whose father was Malcolm X, and how he’s going to put all white people in chains in the second term. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!

@Emma: Those are some mighty fine pictures! Keep up the good work.

Well at least RS redesigned their site to make it easier to mock. It’s a much cleaner look.

Ms. D. Ranged in AZ (formerly IrishGirl)
Shifting into Pimp mode….my blog is http://drangedinaz.wordpress.com, it’s both political with particular focus on AZ and personal, my life as a single mom in a state that I absolutely abhor. Good times.
I heart Balloon-Juice!
Dee Loralei
@Athenae: Also, Athenae gives a mighty fine, smoke a cigarette after reading, rant, kinda like John Cole. Plus the ferret blogging! Oh and they have kick-ass live chat room for election nights, conventions and the upcoming debates. We have a blast with the snark and stuff.The last night of the Dem convention, Jude, was channeling his inner Biden, and a few days later when I saw the pic of Joey The B with the biker chick, I thought for sure it was from something Jude said a few nights previously, come to life.
First Draft is the best place to be when something important is going down. Y’all please do come join us.

I’m going to pimp my webseries, if that’s okay. You can see the first season (six episodes, each five minutes long) at: http://exorcistslocal667.com/episodes/
It’s a comedy about unionized exorcists. What?
Any of you who saw the Sunday NY Times Metro article about the four guys who have been living together for 20 years may recognize our lead, Shyaporn, as one of the long-term roommates in the Times story. I’ve known him since college; he’s a good actor and good guy.

@donovong: Tommy’s take on the Freepers is a Monday-morning must-read for me, I never miss it.
ranchandsyrup
My wife and I started ours at http://www.ranchandsyrup.com
Some politics, kid blogging, railing against humanity, humorous anecdotes, etc.
Going to do a series on water rights/quality/economics as well soon.

I blog about education from the perspective of a parent who wants schools to be more humane and less authoritarian.

We’ve gotten a couple links from the good folks at Balloon Juice over at Poison Your Mind. We’re saying a bunch about Iran & Israel over there today.
Thanks for the self-promotion thread!

Thanks, for the invite and all you do on this blog. My design blog is here, working artist trying to keep it going. Let me know if you ever need a T-shirt idea or anything like that.

@donovong: I’m sorry – I’ll never not say that again.

Thanks, Doug – We all work hard at bringing righteous rants, GOP-depantsing, and serious issues (like rebuilding NOLA) in equal measure.
Also, ferretmania!
