my partner did the same back in the 70s.

ie, today, caution, "danger will robinson"

projections of weird similarity to james comey energy

i think it's a bot.

a moment of random assessment:

still on track to be babbling and drooling before the end of the year.

and will corporate media keep riding along trying to clean up that mess?

ah, Portland, they'll never take weird away from you. Your freedom will out! Thank you!

Shorter Stephanopoulos: "Oh, shut the fuck up, you snide, lying asshole, and we'll be right back."

oh this guy is delusional delusional

have been thinking of rewatching THE FIRST PURGE in light of the federal paramilitaries trying to instigate violence and provoke a reaction from americans

this story sounds like a New Coke ad.

in my feed, mikie here is stacked right below vance on army pay.

two sociopaths in a row.

it's just a goddam shame that presidential replacements 1 and 2 are these sick fucks.

anyone who, by this time, doesn't realize this guy is a lying sociopath — welp, i would say they really need some sort of transformational growth and development from somewhere, from someone.

my thoughts exactly. trump's statement parallels the firings and chaos those incompetent and deranged people he put in charge of the FBI. they are "cleaning out the deep state," witch-hunting whatever integrity there was out of the agency.

'nuther morning thought:

the nixon tuh raygun transition (as The Firesign Theatre so aptly described it, "we're bringing the war back home!") got nuttin' on our trumpian nightmare.

tho a lot of us are just "finding ourselves here," it doesn't mean we can't stop this cruelty.

resist.

October 18.

Morning thought:

If the desire is to separate the United States Constitution from democracy, one only has to separate words from their meanings.

(For an evil member of scotus, that would be easy, evidently.)

<insert the one quote of Hannah Arendt's *Origin of Totalitarianism* popular these days>

yeah, i was "one down, one to go" after your "yankees, hah, hah" post earlier this week. so, Milwaukee, woo, woo.

Yes!!! Just thinking about them makes me want to watch them again, but especially DK's. Her roles/characters so often make me feel very happy.

put 'em both together and it's:

"'Hey, everybody, grab your frog suit and hit the streets on October 18,' thus saith the lord."

i can't talk either, i fix eggs, turkey bacon, ground chicken burgers and other stuff and out my kitchen window enjoy the antics at my finch feeders and of the hummingbirds at the flowers i planted.

I too think Keaton was a great and will miss her,
but does the name Helen Hunt sound familiar?

*something's gotta give* was when she stole the movie from nicholson.

i worry about people around trump who profess to be "concerned about the children."

and this one is like a blinking red light.

a man wearing a black leather jacket and a gold necklace is smiling . Alt: a man wearing a black leather jacket and a gold necklace is smiling and taps his temple knowingly.

NY Times commenters my partner is annoyed with:

mansplainers on why OCTOBER 18 protest "won't work" or will be "a risk" because Big Brother is watching, blah blah blah.

Heard this before as far back as Vietnam war protests. Some are odder & sound like people who think about fallout shelters.

If someone merely acknowledging the humanity of your enemies enrages you, you’re the baddies.

same

this is definitely one up on the doughnut fishing poles in Portland.

when someone does a cheesy performance apocalypse movie about the cheesy performance American fascist president qua anti-christ, this scene can be cut into the script to add a little realism to what will no-doubt be the schlockiest movie the world has ever seen.

A buffoon's tongue contacts the leader's boots.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

makes me wonder what's gonna happen to Memphis.

Never-trumper right wingers are entertaining, if still unreliable, imo.
Mona's post-trump tune has changed, yes. There's probably a face she loves that's been eaten, or something. But instead of "the doom of the libs" she seems to be on to "a rose-colored glasses look at the fascists." Progress?
