Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄😏

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, And 1 million Epstein files appeared from thin air

Wisdom can be found in the darnedest places. "What a tool cynicism is to the corrupt, claiming the whole of creation is broken and fraudulent, and thus we are all excused to indulge in whatever sins we wish - for what’s a little more unfairness in this unfair world?" -The Tainted Cup

Today I return to work with veterans who gleefully support the destruction of all we pledged to defend. To them I would wish a reflective, Time-to-get-your-head-out-of-your-ass Day. I doubt the sentiment will be appreciated much less acted upon so, Once more into the breach. #resist #veteransday

"Don't be a sucker" 1945 United States Army movie about FASCISM.

submitted for your consideration

The Mrs and I decided to take a leap back in time and watch The Running Man. HO.LEE.SHIT. The Cadre is a blueprint for the trump admin. @stephenking.bsky.social

Timeline cleansers seem to be a welcome diversion around here so here's the sight of a future idyll I ran across the other day.

How absolutely messed up it this situation? The RWNJs were inspired by social media "reporting" that legitimate media wouldn't touch due to its wackiness. Now, non-RWNJs HAVE to go to social media to get a sense for what might actually be happening because traditional media is nowhere to be found.

I'm almost looking forward to what will happen when I get to work and start laughing at the red hats crowing. I can just imagine the progress of expressions when they ask me what I find funny and I tell them that they don't have the intelligence to understand. Yep. I'm in for an ass kicking.

I have the perfect solution for memorializing trump at Mt Rushmore. Carve him a pimple on the ass of Jefferson. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

According to the majority opinion in Trump v CASA, if a Judicial authority didn't exist prior to the founding of our nation, it has no place in modern juris prudence. More originalist BS. Let's throw everything not nailed down to trumpicant ideology into the wood chipper.

It's curious that these people who call themselves christians, while convinced they are doing god's will to counter evil, are themselves giving form to the very concept they claim to oppose. Even the Greeks saw evil as nothing more than the persistence of ignorance and a lack of virtue.

A mental health break. I made an early morning excursion to catch sunrise over the wetlands.

So I guess wearing a mask really isn’t that unhealthy after all, “cause a lot of those boys aren’t exactly in shape.

Israel's attack on Iran has put Donny in a tough spot on his birthday weekend. Iran manufactures the drones that Russia has been using to attack Ukraine and Israel is targeting weapons development/manufacturing facilities now. I suspect that his good buddy Vlad is a little irritated.

San Luis Obispo, CA No Kings! I arrived early and was near the front of the crowd. SLO is a small town and while the single block that was coordinated for us can’t compare with LA, San Antonio, Philadelphia, etc……It was packed.

He’ll blame the libs 😂

What better way to destroy the fabric of our republic than to convince your followers that their enemies are hiding within that fabric and the only way to defeat them is to unravel it.

Protestors stop looters and save businesses in Los Angeles. US Media won’t show you this. “We don’t do that shit” #3E #stopICE

We need to start separating the terms opinion and belief. The word, opinion, needs to be elevated to represent a position supported by all the evidence available. Beliefs are nothing more than what reinforces your gut feeling.

Indeed, this pie was invented for days like these

Is the motivation for people who cling so devoutly to their religion as simple as their discomfort with having to admit, “I don’t know.” to the big questions? Or does membership in the club that has chosen the creed, "We don't know yet." just not give the same sense of self-aggrandizement?

Wordle today is pretty on-point politically. I got it in two.

What radicalized you?

🤣

I have a new analogy to describe our situation - Electing Donald Trump to fix our nation's problems is like shitting your pants so you have an excuse to leave a party.

With 7,591 words in the U.S. Constitution, and not ONE of them "bible", "church", "Christian" or "Jesus", explain to me, like I am five years old, how Christianity is "America's religion".

25% tariff on a whiskey drink 37% tariff on a Vodka drink 85% tariff on a Lager drink 110% tariff on a cider drink 132% tariff on songs that remind you of the good times 138% tariff on songs that remind you of the better times

“For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.” ‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Today, I'm headed back to work amongst the rank and file trumplicants. My feelings about the sh1t stain residing in the people's house aren't unknown so this should be an interesting experience. My attitude for this endeavor is as follows:

Let’s give a shout out to all the Make America Great Again supporters for their insight and wisdom. We didn’t want to listen to them but they persevered and have saved us from a second century of growth and prosperity.
