I found just the thing for you on Twitter:
The New Kos Katalogue! https://t.co/39rHZ4pVyt Buy gifts from your Daily Kos friends for Christmas and year round (yes, includes cartoons)!

Man's gotta eat, I guess. I'm sure you'll be placing those orders right away, you know, before all the orange #ImWithHer ball caps are gone. Bound to be collector's items.

Did you see bubble city...
with mention of the dailylost from SNL. Bob posted it this weekend but here it is again. (about 2 min)

They are in a bubble over there.
“Until justice rolls down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.”
Here's some gifts I'd like to give them
How about some Hillary Bullshit Protectors?
Maybe some Preparation H for their Butt-Hurt?
Or if they're feeling a little stressed out, how about some Hillary-approved tranquilizers?
Or how about some Hot Sauce?
Or maybe a little something if they need to hide some emails?
Do they need some help with lying?
Or if they can't afford to move into The Bubble, how about their very own helmet?
Interesting day today
I'm not sure why, but today was the day it really sank in that the Democratic Party is pretty much dead, leaderless, etc.
It still has a big staff and probably a lot of money in it's various accounts, but it has very little power and no credible leaders.
Your graphics really make that obvious. I don't know why any Democrat anywhere would still be talking about Hillary or Bill Clinton. They're over. They have no more power. They'll never serve in public office again. Totally irrelevant.
"If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, take their money and then vote against them you've got no business being in Congress."
I hope and pray you are right.
I don't think they'll voluntarily leave /nt
Beware the bullshit factories.
What sort of decline in the Kos numbers --
has occurred since the exodus?
The ruling classes need an extra party to make the rest of us feel as if we participate in democracy. That's what the Democrats are for. They make the US more durable than the Soviet Union was.
They're down, but not as much as I expected,

Quantcast is what Kos himself uses. Someone posted a site the other day that showed him more steadily down over the last year or so. I think he usually has gone way up over election season, and he did the whole DK5 thing to attract more young folks, so overall even if this is sort of maintaining, that's with a ton of work and publicity.

Is this the comment?
Context (longer time frame)
Edit: And here is the site where I found the above graph.
Yes, the Alexa site! Thank you.
I knew somebody had a different site than Quantcast.

isn't it better if the rank is lower?
not a tech. guy, sorry.
Ouch!
Now I am really confused: A drop in traffic matches a drop in rank. Graphs, will be the death of me yet.
I blew it . . . thanks for the correction.
I found their algorithm: Daily Reach = 145.42 × AlexaRank-1.008.
thx.
Wondering how long Correct
Wondering how long Correct The Record budgeted for trolls - President Hillary would have needed a lot of Trollsplaining to keep the masses propagandized... and she may be planning regime change in America, if Big Money can be conned into trying it...
Psychopathy is not a political position, whether labeled 'conservatism', 'centrism' or 'left'.
A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.
Thanks, Steven! Many of the Katalogue folks are longtime
writers who haven't been involved in the pie fights. I'd be surprised if it includes any Hillbots, since they have probably left DKos by now and since they have probably had a nice source of income over the last two years or so. It is not a Markos project, but one he tolerates.
My stuff is included, but I would be delighted to take orders from here for those who don't want to give DKos the traffic.
I know, you're having fun with it, thinking of all the Hill-related stuff that could be included. But this does make me think, maybe we should seriously do something similar here for 99%ers? What does everyone think? I not only make a little (very little!) money from the Katalogue, I also like to buy from it to support American jobs - and yes, I sure do check out the politics of the person I buy from before I buy! But it's a way to support entrepreneurs and small businesses, rather than the multinational corporations, especially for Christmas. If there's interest, maybe we could create a Caucus Catalogue group.

Well then
I am surprised he let's them use the name without getting a license or something.
I'll check it out Elena.
Thanks for the information.
And yes a c99 catalogue would be a great idea.

It's like the groups or the pootie diaries;
they increase community, therefore drive traffic.
OTOH, some people might buy something rather than sign up for a DKos membership. I suppose he tried it for a while to see what would happen, found it more helpful than harmful.

I think JtC might say he already lists links?
But, it can't hurt to ask.
I've bought some jewelry from Michele, and gave a necklace to my daughter who liked it, as did the friend she opened it front of. Will be sporting the necklace/earrings Thursday, myself.
I just wish I had money to spend on any gifts. First year, ever, my kids won't even get $50. I need a second job, but I'm so tired from the one I have.
Sorry! Yes, I think a catalog for here would be great!
Sounds great! I love Michele's stuff, they're unique.
No worries, the idea is to get enough people to see our work that those who can afford it will find us. Not to guilt people into buying when they can't afford it! Sharing is extremely helpful. I've found in general, karma works. I donate today, others donate to me if I am in need tomorrow. Pay it forward and we all make it through tough times.

Have known some of those people for many years
I don't begrudge them selling their crafts, for some its a big part of their income. Kos doesn't make money from it.
Just noticed snoopydawg's stuff is listed there too. It usually is. Just sayin'.
I may not agree with a lot of these people, but if I can help someone out by buying their artwork, etc., and if they're not a right winger, I'll do it. What goes around comes around.
"If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, take their money and then vote against them you've got no business being in Congress."
Kos doesn't have an income stream from it?
But they are using his name?
Weird
"You can't just leave those who created the problem in charge of the solution."---Tyree Scott
He doesn't make money from the sale of their products
They do this every holiday season as a way to help promote the artwork of the members. I don't think Kos gets any money from these sales. In the past, some of these artists have donated work for other charitable causes promoted on DKos.
"If you can't eat their food, drink their booze, take their money and then vote against them you've got no business being in Congress."
Yes for many of us it not only so that we can sell our
products but so we can earn extra money to make ends meet.
I'm desperately trying to save my house from foreclosure and if I can sell 3-5 decent sized prints a month I will be able to keep my home for me and the dawgs. Plus have money for Abby's medications.
I recently got a housing voucher but I could only find a place where the rent was $550. I'm sure that you can imagine what type of place that amount would get me if they are even available. After the housing crisis the banks bought the foreclosed homes for pennies on the dollar and have been driving up rents.
My house payment is less than rent for a house smaller than mine and in horrible conditions.
The two I looked at were in the middle of the gang drug territories and they were less than 500 square feet. My bed wouldn't have fit in the living room let alone the bedroom.
The bathrooms were full of mold and grime.
When DK5 rolled out it took away siglines and many people's businesses suffered from it.
I have my work on so many sites but so does thousands of other people because of the economy and I'm not getting any orders.
If anyone is interested in buying photographs for their friends or family for Xmas, I would appreciate it if you considered some of my photos.
If you don't know what your friends or family would like, you can purchase a size for them and they can send me an email and let me know which picture they would like to have.

And I'm not a right winger
I promise

Pssst, Steven, look to the Left side for members' art
And if there are more out there, I am thinking Knucklehead and more photographers, all of youse should ask JtC for a left-link!
Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.

I had not thought of that backward plan, sd, buy a size
and let the giftees pick the print! I know I can't even get my own kids' tastes right. Or who is currently into "maaatch" with color schemes, something I find personally silly.
