You know what would be great, if somebody did rabbit ears on Trump at Davos. And considering recent days, it is not outside the realm of possibility! 🐰

I haven’t thought about this in 30 years but it was back in my head the minute you mentioned it.

So because Trump & Stephen Miller don't understand the Mercator Projection now Lego's will cost $1 more?

When I was a teenager I enjoyed Dilbert cartoons and Scott Adams’s preachy books. But he turned into MAGA even before Trump! And turns out horse-dewormers don't cure cancer … 🙄🪦

@stoppodcasting.bsky.social I recall an episode (probably many years ago now) where Graham was astonished to learn that most cars have a little arrow for which side is the gas cap.

The inventor is in the news recently. This post has a gift link to the WSJ article!

The rest of us are, for some reason, unsurprised that Trump would violate another's autonomy and barge in by force without permission or consent.
Speaking with Vanity Fair in November, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles admitted that a military strike in Venezuela would require a congressional act of war. “If he were to authorize some activity on land, then it’s war, then [we’d need] Congress."

If a reporter (hopefully female) asked Trump what is the capital of Greenland, what slur would he call her? 🇬🇱

When the Virgin Queen of England employed open-seas piracy she was admired then and now. 🚢🏴‍☠️

Does Donald want to admit that about himself?

Just wait until Trump learns that Greenland has a king and he's named Frederik Twitter! 🇬🇱

I suppose it is interesting that Commissar Stephen Miller thinks he can treat Maduro akin to Noriega rather than a Dubya Bush limbo in Gitmo.

Secretary of Drunken Combat Pete has a pretty small laptop, and nearly enough shirts for Florida. Anyone spot them? It's not a MacBook but it looks similar.

It's still hard to get my head around what Vice Chancellor Stephen Miller thinks he is doing with Venezuela.

But it is interesting to see more evidence the fancy Russian S-400 is defeatable (took an effort) but it is defeatable and dismissible by NATO weapons.

Experts used to be frightened of it!

If Venezuela wants to kidnap somebody from the Maryland/Virginia area, most of US won't mind …

Gah. If Global Warming is real, why is this the second most snow in New York in four years? 📏📐🌨️

I wonder why anyone bothers running for Mayor of New York — you end up universally reviled. The current jackass will be in charge of this weekend's snowstorm!
