Songwriter. Vocalist. Mandolin player. Former republican.
I made my own rehydration fluid, in case I need to travel the Oregon Trail, or something. One-half teaspoon of salt with two tablespoons of sugar in a quart of Crystal Light for flavor.

It tastes exactly like Pedialyte. Shocker.

And I already feel better. Damn. The simplest things.

Trump putting his name on the Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts makes about as much sense as Trump putting his name on the Jefferson Memorial or the Lincoln Memorial.

This was a totally unbiased decision made my the board that Donald Trump chairs.

The headline should read, "Trump renames Kennedy Center after himself."
We knew this shitshow was coming. But still…

I would like to see this project stall for the next three years so that it can created by someone with good taste.

72 hours in bed with the flu and I am finally up. What fever dreams did I post to Bluesky? Too tired to care.

I might sleep through the night, tonight! Simple pleasures.

My ancestors came to this country almost 400 years ago and managed to murder the inhabitants and steal their farms and land without breaking any laws that anyone had the power and will to enforce. If you have a problem with that then I hope we can all do better moving forward.

In order to save space on servers, Marco Rubio has ordered his department to return to using Times New Roman font, which in addition to having a manlier name than "Calibri," which sounds like a criminal Italian immigrant, can be written in a smaller point size.
Marco Rubio ordered diplomats to return to using Times New Roman font in official communications, calling his predecessor's decision to adopt Calibri a “wasteful” diversity move
Rubio Stages Font Coup: Times New Roman Ousts Calibri

I sometimes write with Microsoft Copilot on. If it suggests a phrase that I was already going to write, I write something different. If you are being so predictable that a machine could write it, then no one is going to read it.

A great legal scholar, big scholar, powerful scholar, tears in his eyes said, "Sir..."
Aa handful of complicit sycophants does not count as "many great legal scholars." Also, they urged people to disobey illegal orders, which is part of their training and required by law.

"How could you possibly meet with that man?" ask the people who elected him president. What? You didn't vote for him? Well, somebody did, or failed to vote against him. A lot of somebodies did. Maybe you should complain to them, because I don't have an alternate president to deal with, just him.

The Senate tried to pass a bill giving several of its most criminal member one million dollars, each, but the House said, "No, fuck that."
Then the House passed the Trump/Epstein bill almost unanimously with the understanding that the Senate would poison it with some loophole. But: "No, fuck that."

From Mark Epstein to his brother Jeffrey:

"Ask him [Steve Bannon] if [Vladimir] Putin has the photos of [Donald] Trump blowing Bubba [Saulsbury]"

And Jeffrey's reply:
"And I thought I had tsuris [troubles]"

Donald Trump pretends to fellate his own microphone at almost every rally.

Young Gas refused the bribe and identified the person who offered him £200 to throw the fight as a "muffin-baker". He also identified the "gentlemen" who used the muffin-baker as a go between, but they denied involvement claiming they did not have "the slightest knowledge of the muffin-man".

Jeanine Pirro complained that she had worked hard for President Trump while pretending to be a neutral voice on Fox News, but Trump was slow in rewarding her with a pardon for her criminal husband.

You have the right and the duty as a jury member to nullify her attempts at prosecutorial over-reach.
