So you’re not a big fan of the white text on a black background look, huh?
Cap’s got your back. With this page. Here you can read my American Madness Journal entries the way you like it: white background & black text.
HUGS,


Lordy, We’re Getting a Super-Size Portion of Madness, Is it Fucking Sweeps Week?
Sometimes people ask me, “Cap? Is shit still cray?” And that's a good question. Let me put it this way; there was a nationwide wave of bomb threats today, and by next Wednesday, you won't remember it at all. I'm actually writing this from the hospital tonight. Yes,...
Cap’s Monday Roundup: Where There’s Smock, There’s…I Dunno, Firp?
Hey gang, how is everybody? Good weekend? Everyone enjoying their time trapped in Dario Argento's version of a Lewis Carroll story? If we just keep screaming, somebody's bound to find us and let us out, right?So, about four minutes after I posted my last blog, the...
Flynn, Gohmert, Lewandowski, Harris, Spano? The News is Live from the Outhouse Tonight!
Friends, I know I've been telling you that shit be cray for a couple of years now, but we've suddenly found ourselves at the point in history where robots are attacking us with bear spray, and I don't think we're anywhere near the bottom of this barrel yet.Hairpiece...
Assorted Zaniness and Silliness, Plus Oh Yeah, the GOP Attempts a Coup in Wisconsin
Hey there, Shower Captives! Hope you all enjoyed your weekend of pretending George H.W. Bush was some sort of historically great man just because he didn't tear-gas little kids while ogling his own daughter. Let's round up the insanity, shall we?Well, President Truck...
Cap’s Very Legal & Very Cool Roundup of Every Dirtbag From Paul Manafort to Alex Acosta
Y'know, normally it's delightful news when a garbage person gets their comeuppance, and it's certainly fun watching the walls close in on Conman Don, but sometimes you remember he's still an utterly immoral shitsack wielding the powers of the Presidency, and you...
The Blue Wave Got So Big, it Washed Away Paul Manafort’s Brains!
Hey folks, it's been a spell, hasn't it? Did you miss me while you were overdosing on stuffing and cranberry sauce? Did you even think of me as you trampled your fellow human beings beneath your feet in a blood-crazed frenzy to save 80 bucks on a television? Anyway,...
Thanksgiving Celebrations Marred as Princess Ivanka Commits the Greatest Crime of All
In this season of Thanksgiving, let me express my gratitude for the Great Big Fat Fuckin’ Blue Wave, and everyone who made it possible. And for beer, of course. And um...the Doobie Brothers are pretty cool, I guess. Enough schmaltzy shit, let's do the news.Let's kick...
Acosta Rides Again! Plus, I Think Jar-Jar’s New Friend Ordered a Murder.
I know asking y’all to stick around for my deliberately-overlong blog post is particularly challenging today, because everyone is plum tuckered out by all the WINNING. But shit is marginally less cray this week, and tempered by plenty of good news, so curl up with a...
Cap’s Soapbox: I Like Presidents Who Aren’t Scared of Drizzle, Okay?
I hope you'll bear with me, True Believers, as I dedicate today's post to the late great Stan Lee. I'm sure I don't need to talk about his influence on me, you probably gleaned it from the tone. Or maybe the outfit. Anyhow, let's call this one...Cap's Soapbox.That...
We Can Talk About Sessions and Acosta, Sure. But Let’s Celebrate that Sweet, Sweet Blue Wave!
Hey there Shower Captives! How does it feel to have a few big fat fuckin’ WINS under your belt? How does it feel to have finally, FINALLY installed some checks on this wannabe-authoritarian goon squad's power? I'm pretty sure it feels good, though I haven't sobered up...
One Last Shower Cap Update Before We All Go Back to Obsessively Staring at the Clock Waiting for the Midterms Results to Roll In
Time sure is passin’ a little slower than usual today, isn’t it? It's like every childhood Xmas rolled up into one, only there's a small chance all those tantalizing packages under the tree turn out to be filled with scorpions and ebola and Dane Cook DVDs. Well, let...
And Lo, the Lord Sent Unto Them a Jacob Wohl, to Laugh At in Their Darkest Hour!
The news...good lord, the NEWS. “Hey Cap, just for today, why don't you only tell me the parts that aren't about mega-racist shitsacks being mega-racist?” Because the blog would be like, three paragraphs long, that's why. Welcome to Republican Closing Argument Time, a...
White Supremacist Terror Week Sucks. I Miss Infrastructure Week.
Well, with the midterms a few short days away, Infrastructure Week has given way to White Supremacist Terror Week, and I confess, watching the American President do everything he can to provoke division, fear, and outright hatred, I'm nostalgic for the early days of...
This Week, We Learned Just How Much a Painting of Trump is Worth. Oh, Also There was Some Terrorism.
A number of readers have written in recent weeks to lament the seeming abandonment of the “shit be cray” phrase on this blog. I just figured that shit was so cray all the time that y’all were tired of hearing about how cray shit is, but rest assured...shit remains...
The GOP has Gone Full Klansman, and Steve King is HERE FOR IT.
I tell you folks, the bungling incompetence and pathetic dishonesty I can handle, but the hatred? Some days, the hatred wears me out. I'm getting mighty tired of living in Eli Roth's unproduced Pleasantville sequel, is all I'm sayin’. Looks like John Bolton is finally...
In Which SCROTUS Covers Up a Murder, and Republicans do…Wow, a Fuckton of Super-Racist Shit
Turned on the news today, saw it was full of the shittiest people on Earth betraying American values to line their own pockets, and I wondered, “is this a re-run?” Mitch McConnell, like an overeager actor who rushes onstage five scenes too early, just couldn't stop...
On Bonesaws and Bigots and Boys, Proud or Otherwise
We're a little over three short weeks away from the headline I've been jonesin’ for since November 2016: “After Years of Assholes Running Amok, the Good Guys Finally Win!” and I am READY FOR IT, folks. It's like a fat piece of chocolate cake for dessert after you've...
This Week We Have to Shame our President Into Condemning the Murder of a Journalist. Citizenship is Fun!
Well, we've graduated from tut-tutting about civility to locking ourselves in the safe room as the mob of torch-wielding Democrats circles the old family mansion. Whatever. As Eric Holder said, “When they go low, we tie them to the fire ant hill, and laugh at their...
This Last-Minute Surge in Voter Enthusiasm is Brought to You by Post-Kavanaugh Gloating and…Taylor Swift?
Hey everybody, no blog tonight, I just don't have anything to say, honestl-oh hang on, the Soros check just showed up, special delivery! I guess I can continue with my paid activism which is only purchased and certainly not sincere now! Well, we began the week with...
Introducing Shower Cap’s 2018 Midterms Countdown Advent Calendar!
Hey folks, slow news day with the “holiday,” so I'm doing something a little different tonight. Since we're in the home stretch before our long-awaited opportunity to fire a bunch of complicit GOP assclowns in the 2018 midterms, I figured I'd put together a little...
