Opening to my WIP:

Charles closes the truck's tailgate and wipes his dirty hands on his thighs. He turns and looks to the east.

Are you hooked?

BREAKING: Trump to unveil his long awaited beautiful health care bill as well as a somewhat plausible rationale for invading Iran in approximately two weeks.

It's kinda brilliant of the media to report from Israel because they can periodically have to shelter in place and frame this war as Iran being the aggressor.

Imagine having to admit you're Marco Rubio.

Kristi Noem is getting through this hearing by dreaming of shooting dogs.

My favorite line from Orwell’s 1984 is when a character says, β€œWe went proactively in a defensive way.”

Just kidding. That’s what Marco Rubio said about our attack on Iran.

Trump should've just come out today wearing a turtleneck and a sports coat with elbow patches and acted like nothing was different.

Uh-oh, the new Scary Movie trailer didn't make me laugh. I'm sure I'll see it at some point, but it's doubtful I'll be running to the theater to see it.

Put on a spring training baseball game with two teams I don't care about just to feel warm.

The most centrist MSNBC wine mom liberal has contempt for Trump and the people who put him there.

Watched If I Had Legs I'd Kick You last night. Too smart for me. The whole time I'm watching it I'm like "This is all a metaphor for something." Well made, though, and Rose Bryne was amazing. Won't be mad if she wins the Best Actress Oscar.

If you need any more reason to hate Trump and the media: his nonsensical speech just preempted the end of The Price is Right. Now I have no idea who won the showcase.

Wow, they can call it whatever they want, give me one NOW.

I was just thinking that. It feels like they're grooming him to be the presumptive nominee like they did with Hillary in 2016. Just her against a handful of cardboard cutouts, until Bernie shook things up.

If he really is the de facto leader then the Dem Party is even worse shape than I thought.

If gas prices go up what the hell does the MAGA cult have left? Just the torture of brown people. That's it.

Maybe going forward after a presidential election we have a second one a year later to see if enough people have changed their minds.

Poor Tulsi Gabbard. Having to pretend she was never against regime change wars while trying to ignore Lindsey Graham's giant boner.

Kids today will never know the annoying bullshit of the "hidden track" on CDs.

Don't be too hard on Lindsey. He's had an erection for almost 48 hours and he's woozy.

In America Islamophobia isn't just tolerated it's encouraged.

The problem is everyone considers themselves "populists" while they continue to worship billionaires and direct their rage at undocumented immigrants and single mom's buying Doritos with food stamps.

It took forever but I finally finished the first season of The Paper and you know what, I liked it. I didn't laugh out loud that much but I had fun with it. It's a comfortable show, like a warm blanket.
