Sandra Bland has been proven to be legally right in all interactions with the officer that pulled her. So why is she dead?

It's hard to look cool being all racist when some guy is playing your entrance song on a sousaphone.

Some say taking the Confederate flag down means nothing because we have other problems. They are wrong. This is a huge victory.

I was going to write about the misogyny behind the murders in Santa Barbara, the literal war on women. Then I saw someone did it better.

Yesterday, Rush Limbaugh mentioned how horrible conditions were for Mandela under apartheid. Oh how things have changed in 20 years...

You've heard of the Moral Monday protests in Raleigh, NC over the tyrannical control over the state legislature? Well since they the legislative session is over, the NAACP took it on the road to Asheville, NC (pop. 85,000). And those hippies turned out and did North Carolina proud. Read More

This won't be long. But it might be the most important reason that this is the worst idea ever. And I am fucking pissed.

Welcome to the last edition of Quote the Ravin'. After a full year of quote compiling I'm calling it quits and moving on to another project. It's bittersweet: although it was a lot of work with not much feedback, I appreciated the few who followed me and I especially liked writing the satirical intros, which I still contend were some of the best on DK.

I was afraid at first of consistency and losing interest in posting. Thankfully, that never happened. The formatting was a bear, but I got used to it. Obviously blogs like Think Progress, Talking Points Memo, Andrew Sullivan's Daily Dish and Dave Weigel were a goldmine of content.

To those few of you who came by every week, I thank you. I couldn't have done it without you. I will reach out to some of you and let you know when my project nears going live.

Thanks again. Let's start quotin'.

Just a note that next week will be the last Quote the Ravin'. I've done it diligently for a year, and I don't regret it. But it never seemed to catch on on DK. I got some nice comments from Meteor Blades and Bill in Portland Maine, and a few of you who come back every week. And I appreciate it.

It's a lot of work. I probably spend 6-10 hours a week compiling and formatting this thing. And maybe one person in ten or twenty bothers to even recommend it. I could repost a Jon Stewart clip, spend three minutes on it and it would generate hundreds of recs and comments.

So, I'm moving on to blogging somewhere else. I've overcome blogophobia, and I'm confident I won't lose interest in maintaining something that's my own. BUT, perhaps you'd like to take over this monster. If you'd like to inherit this quotes of the week blog, just shoot me a message. I'll give you some tips where to get some content, sign over the title, and you can drive it however you wish.

See ya next week.
