Wonk the Vote coined that term above, PAD, and I think most of us are feeling exhausted and disgusted with the news of late, so for tonight I just have one cartoon for you, and then y’all have at it in the comments.
And with that, please enjoy your Monday Evening. This is an open thread.

Memeorandum Democracy NOW The UK Guardian
The Sky Dancing banner headline uses a snippet from a work by artist Tashi Mannox called 'Rainbow Study'. The work is described as a" study of typical Tibetan rainbow clouds, that feature in Thanka painting, temple decoration and silk brocades". dakinikat was immediately drawn to the image when trying to find stylized Tibetan Clouds to represent Sky Dancing. It is probably because Tashi's practice is similar to her own. His updated take on the clouds that fill the collection of traditional thankas is quite special.
You can find his work at his website by clicking on his logo below. He is also a calligraphy artist that uses important vajrayana syllables. We encourage you to visit his on line studio.

Here’s some good news. Jamie Dimon may lose CEO job–he has to face shareholders in Tampa tomorrow. Plus, the fed are getting ready to investigate.
BB, the bad news is that JD is just one head of the hydra. Neither the Dems nor the Repubs show any sign of dealing with the actual monster. It wouldn’t even be difficult. Hedges are very easy todistinguish from gambles: the company owns the underlying security. *No* trades on derivatives when the bank or shadow bank doesn’t own the security. And a financial transaction tax. End of problem. Do they do it? Nooooo. Instead we get multi-hundred page bills that enable the bastards. Obama is up to his neck in this just like everyone else. There’s no escape in our current setup.
(Is there any hope? See my next comment below!)
With that title, I have to clock in! I could write the book on P.A.D. by now … but I’m too disaffected.
