We did. Then we negotiated for a presidency. But the idea that the South is the problem, while convenient for the rest of the nation, is undone by the last election. Half the nation is with us. We can educate the rest and outlast the ones we can't.

That's the arc.

If you go back and watch the movies you see why he was popular. If you only watch the tv show, you see something turning toward camp, with iffy production and rushed scripts that weren't up to the two tv movies. That's what killed it. Less, done better, would have been a difference maker.

Well, I started to make a checklist on a rare, cold, overcast day here. Hmm.

Feed the cats.
Feed Jack.
Read.
Write a little.
See what that noise was (the cats).
Listen to music.
Contact a food pantry about a donation (everyone should who can).
Make a list (check).
The usual.

I am convinced that at least half of what I read on the internet would once have occupied the garbage can beside a desk containing the “Letters to the Editor” incoming bin.

It lands so much better coming from you. Emperor Palpitations is getting more obvious by parsec...I know, I know.

I have a potato totem on my writing desk today.

Outside of that, I will apparently be banning Emma Watson from further aggressive contact, as she insists "we begin family" and is now stalking me across several incarnations (and with surprisingly poor grammar for and English person).

😏

Like they should take medical advice from a guy you wouldn't trust to work a calculator.

Oh now you don't. It's nothing sucks Sunday. I don't do news on Sunday. ;L)

Ah, good call. True enough.👍

Fair, though Jackson was a scary son of a bitch on his own two feet. Trump needs a mob to be much of anything.

A telephone post with a sign that reads " Please like and share this post."

When someone reposts one of mine, I immediately go to their account to see if I can like, comment on or repost some of theirs.
It's called engagement. That's how it works.

"We dont know how the China negotiations are going to go."

they're over.. China buys elsewhere now..

Money lost now, Bad. Money lost in future, aslo Bad.

Losing top customer, now money and future money, very very very bad..
this is how we need to talk to them, extra slow and with sticks.

😆

Great minds.

The game tilted. Time to seriously tax capital, put a reasoned cap on profits and a limit on personal fortunes.

We can keep the incentive of wealth AND make a comparative paradise for everyone, if we have the national will, vision, and moral backbone to work for it.

He's the worst parts of Woodrow Wilson and Warren G. Harding stitched together in a way Shelley wouldn't believe.

Rich and racist, carrying the Wilson cross into a relatively new century. Yeah, that seems about Right.

And another example of unilateral disregard for the strictures and traditions of the institution. Another rogue act by the Grifter and Thief.

It's me. I ran into a "Guy walks into a bar" joke and thought, "I've never written one of those." So I waited a couple of minutes while my subconscious came up with the answer. Thanks.

Judas goats. They should be required to wear bells around their necks.

Callous and Vile sounds like the name he and Pence should use in their prison comedy act, one day.

Time for The Hague?

Orange you wishing you'd had better locks. . . it was that or a pits joke. I went to my grocer today to set up a salad. No lettuce. I tell you, some days it's just hard to get ahead in this world.

I should probably leaf.

I like pig analogies, where he's concerned (and with apologies to the actual animal). You elect one and you pretty much know what your yard is going to look like.

He should answer for it. So should Mike "Hands on My" Johnson. Man, did his parents ever nail the dismount, naming wise.

Well, except to bigots, idiots, and Christian Nationalists, to the extent those differ.

It's common sense. People in a place where being noticed is a threat to their happiness and ability to remain are going to behave themselves better than most of the rest of us.

Hey, it's American Boris, and Natasha! This should be hysterical (either).

In other words, the Reagan Foundation is catching enormous loads of shit from the crazy part of the right (most, sadly) and is off loading it with a vague threat it can't actually enforce. Sounds about Right.

I have more concerns and questions about non-artificial intelligence, but no. I think we're going to have to pass laws restricting its role, to keep a great many people from having nothing to do and no means to generate income, but in the main, I think it can and should be a boon for humanity.

Today's Bad Joke for Historians...

Davy Crocket walks into a bar.

He fights it.
