Heard Nothing Else Matters on the radio this morning.
Which took me down a rabbit hole leading to my wedding playlist.
So, now I’m crying in my hospital bed listening to Casey Musgraves ‘3 little birds’
Hows your day going?

I’d love to watch an 18hole competition between DJT and Kim Jong Un.
I feel the world of golf is missing a trick here.

Once again, if a sitting MP defects to a different party, there needs to be a process whereby the local constituency can call for a new by-election.
I accept that we vote for an individual but at the same time, a prospective MP sits behind a party manifesto.

In hospital again, this time for an MRI on my back. I’ve lost all feeling in my feet and lower legs so walking (and even standing unaided) is a challenge.
Peripheral neuropathy apparently but we need to find the cause and alleviate the symptoms.

Does anyone have the full version of the saying “Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice, shame on you”?
I suspect we are now up to “Fool me 47 times, blame & invade a sovereign nation”.

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela.
Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law.
Both of those facts are simultaneously true.

There’s a 1st. My legs gave out on me in shower and I ended up in a crumpled heap on the floor.
I was hoping to make it a little further into the year before I had to call the hospitals 24hr advice line.
Oh well, hopefully, although they want to see me in person they’ll keep me as an outpatient.

Anyway, spending this NYE as nature intended - sat on the sofa, trying not to fall asleep before the fireworks and drinking a Lemsip.

It’s New Year’s Eve eve. That means there’s still over 3 years of this TrumpWorld nonsense left to go.

Here’s hoping something goes well in 2026. (25th amendment?)

Again, I’m not 100% on US law and politics but Clinton was impeached for, amongst other things, having sexual relations with Lewinsky (O18…)
DJT seems to be immune from any investigation, let alone impeachment, for allegations of sexual relations with U18s.
