So many interests, too little time. Lifelong learner, cause it’s never enough. Lived long enough to know history is on repeat. Successfully quits social media, cold turkey. No Meta, X, or TikTok. It all started with 1980s college B-Boards 🙃

Turned off CBS Sunday Morning.
Such a pity.

Well… they are also helping to finish off Golf- all things being considered.

Stopping a bully doesn’t make a peacemaker.

*By the way, Americans are selling middle-eastern countries military weapons to allow them to race to the next war.
War isn’t a good defense. All you have is the entirety of history to prove it.

We’ll discuss Israel’s genocide of Palestinians for centuries, if not millennia to come.

Keep that in mind whilst celebrating “peace.”

Expecting one of the AIs to go full-on Max Headroom soon. We need some fun-filled annoying chaos in this grotesque useless mass-media environment.

This Executive Branch is so far removed from a meritocracy and corrupted, we’d be better governed by Mrs. Banker’s kindergarten class of 1976.

A primer on fascism is called for.

This Is Fascism

It’s weird that people can come to the conclusion that poor people are more damaging to their lives and livelihoods than the obscenely wealthy.
The wealthy bought a country and will sink it for decades, if not the rest of the century.
…Wasn’t too hard with complicit politicians and its judiciary.

Angry, hostile, hateful people get away with calling themselves Christian when rallying against the less fortunate- over 18-cents of $1.
Electing billionaires who give more to themselves is perverse.

We are already in purgatory.

As old as I am, and I am that;
-television is on life support.

Pull. The. Plug.

Make lots of people poorer.
Meh!

That guy swindles more than $50/minute from the American Taxpayer.
Follow the big money.

Amen to that.

Journalists are falling over themselves to fawn over fascists rather than bringing critical useful information to citizens.
Worthless tripe!!

Who is reporting from the Portland war zone?
Why do our media outlets have No information on narco-terrorism?
If it’s happening, PROVE it.

Why Idaho?
The terrain is Nothing like Qatar.

Learning to fly and land those things would be more like Arizona flats than Idaho.
And why couldn’t they pay our people for delivery and lessons in their own country?

This has diaper-shit all over it.

Nothing spells
s-h-i-t-h-o-l-e country quite like the federal government shooting a pastor in the head with anything, Donald, Kristi and Kegsbreath.

… creating false emergencies and getting caught up in your own mentally-ill drama.
It’s back-firing.
Seek professional help from a qualified PhD.

Follow the money

Talk about government waste.
Congress has only convened for 15-days since July.
They still get their pay and manage to avoid the American mandate to release the Epstein evidence.
Corrupted.

Looks like we’ll need an aggressive tax for all those oligarchs that attended the inauguration.

MAGA Drama requires they always become victims. Even when winning.

I could only hope she becomes as despondent she deserves.

Axios reported that Trump had a tense call with Netanyahu, in which Trump snapped at the prime minister: “I don’t know why you’re always so fucking negative. This is a win. Take it.”

That’s almost like a strongly-worded letter from Susan Collins.

Started reading a 52-year old book that seems like it could have been written about current events.
