Fine, okay, let’s talk about Joe Biden
One of the big questions that haunts the Who The Fuck Are All These Fucks? series is: when does someone get a profile? Does it come when they’ve announced their candidacy? When they announce an exploratory committee? When they are very, very, obviously considering a run, Joseph? The answer has been, mostly, when they start some kind of campaign.

What’s changing with Salt & Granite?
On my personal Facebook a week ago, I revealed that there were some big changes happening in my personal and professional lives.

Why isn’t Tim Kaine running for president?
Today, we’re talking about something a little different. Rather than continuing what at least one experimental psychologist calls a “very excellent” series on the 2020 Democratic candidates, we’re going to talk about someone who is absolutely not running for president: Timothy Michael Kaine. In case you don’t remember – and you might not remember – Tim Kaine is a senator from Virginia who, in 2016, … Continue reading Why isn’t Tim Kaine running for president?
