Endlessly curious. I am wont to find humour (note Canadian spelling) everywhere. Author, Death Kills and other things I've learned on the internet. TED talk: Exit Laughing. Oh so glad to be here where the sky is blue and the tone is true.
Today, the Oscars celebrate achievements in film—but did you know the awards were originally designed to bust Hollywood unions?
Here’s my occasional reminder that if you get long COVID, resources are scarce. All of the decent doctors treating it have waitlists three years long or aren’t taking new patients at all. Autonomic testing is a bitch to schedule and isn’t widely available.
Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.
Well earned @meidastouch.com!! You deserve it boys! Thank you for everything you do!
Q: Can you say why we're sending 5,000 Marines and sailors?
TRUMP: You're a very obnoxious person
Now the same people tied to that playbook are running the government.
And it’s not just some think tank document. Groups like Turning Point USA are actively recruiting young women. My daughter has received several of their mailers. Our shredder has been busy.
Conan O’Brien: “I warn you this could get political — if that makes you uncomfortable Kid Rock is hosting an alternate Oscars at a dave and busters down the street.” #Oscars
Not a single country has agreed to Trump’s demands to send warships or troops to Iran. The most he’s gotten are vague statements about “considering their options.” Quite a few are ghosting him entirely. Threatening, insulting, and tariffing your allies has consequences.
CONAN: “For the first time since 2012 no British people are nominated for Best actor or best Actress… a British spokesperson commented, ‘Yeah, well, at least we arrest our pedophiles.’" #Oscars
Trump and his foreign policy/nat security/trade officials have done nothing but attack, demean and insult our NATO allies. Then when they refuse to join his Iran War he alternates between pouting and threatening. The time to include allies in a coalition is BEFORE you go to war.
JFC! The right already stripped abortion rights from millions of women. Contraception is next.
Project 2025 made the agenda clear. This was never about saving babies. It’s about control, pushing women back into submission and forcing more births.

THIS WAS SO PREDICTABLE
Remember when Trump built an entire narrative around “saving” white South Africans, claiming they were facing “white genocide” in their own country, which was a lie? He fast-tracked refugee status for them while slamming the door on everyone else.
Donald Trump isn't just the stupidest person to ever become president, he is one of the stupidest people to ever become famous.
Kamala Harris has endorsed @jamestalarico.bsky.social
after his Texas Senate primary win.
She offered him “full support in the months ahead” after the March 3 primary.
I urge all Texans to follow suit. Let’s commit to flipping that seat! jamestalarico.com
Trans folks don’t barge into women’s spaces to assault people. You’re thinking of Trump.
CNN: FCC Chair threatens broadcasters over criticism of Trump's Iran War.
Rep. Ted Lieu to Brendan Carr: “Take your fascist shit and shove it.” 💙

"The United States has COMPLETELY destroyed Iran's military, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come help us because Iran's military is whipping our ass in the Strait of Hormuz. Thank you for your attention to this ridiculous inconsistency."
Rep. Jared Huffman: “If we’re honest about what’s going on, we have a madman in the White House who is running roughshod, who is running the biggest, most corrupt criminal grift in American history out of the White House.”

Republicans blamed Hillary for 4 dead in Benghazi. They blamed Biden for 13 dead in Afghanistan.
Trump’s war has already left 13 U.S. troops dead in just three weeks. Where’s the GOP outrage now?
Ladies and gentlemen,
Introducing Trump's ICE THUGS.
THIS IS WHAT AMERICAN GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ARE DOING!
This is what our taxpayer dollars are paying for.
#ICELawlessness
“We want to change the rules of the next election so Democrats don’t win anymore”
What a crock of shit ..
"I came to America because I heard the streets were paved with gold. When I got here, I found out three things: First, the streets were not paved with gold. Second, they weren't paved at all. Third, I was expected to pave them"

Turning it around by making it much harder to vote
How can any Democrat justify voting for Trump’s new DHS nominee when they continue to break the law using taxpayer dollars and resources for partisan politics?
As a retired pilot, this one hits close to home.
Six American airmen lost their lives over Iraq this week.
They were young. They had dreams. They chose to serve anyway.
A few thoughts on their sacrifice — and the price of war.

These people are creepy, childish and just weird as shit and we should say it all the time.
Q: “So, hundreds of millions of dollars in grants were terminated from the NEH. The deficit didn’t change much. And you were paid $150,000 to do that job of reducing the deficit. Do you feel like the $150,000 paid to you was wasteful spending?”
A: *Laughs, frowns….long pause*
