From driftglass:
Many of my old comrades from The News Blog days have long since departed for Purity Angel Elysium. Over the years (shit, I mean decades) I have heard from a few of them, them every now and again, mostly during the administration of Barack “Worse Than Boosh!” Obama, and almost exclusively to chastise me for being a bad and unworthy Libtard.
Ah well. I’ve been thrown out of better places. I’ve been called worse things. They seem happy up there in paradise, secure in their own self-regard, surrounded by the like-minded and removed from this grimy, elbows-deep-in-the-imperfect world. And what more should one want for old friends than they find a little happiness in this old universe?
