Does anyone notice the Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief destroys everything he touches? His own home, his friends, his allies, our institutions, beliefs, credos? Aside from fences and walks, has he ever created anything?

Join us at Diesel Bookstore Los Angeles on April 28th at 6:30pm for a reading of Bender’s LA - Michael Elias’ newest story. It will be fun. Come and enjoy our conversation. #books #events #losangeles

And just just from trees…

Uh oh… Trump’s Erratic Behavior and Extreme Comments Revive Mental Health Debate www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/u...

“I have seen a madman beget madmen,” says Starbuck in Moby Dick. Melville was obviously thinking about Trump et al.

Interesting to holiday in beautiful Morocco. I can’t help thinking that in the wonderful Casablanca movie, everyone was desperate to get to freedom in America. Now there’s gonna be folks desperate to reach Casablanca.

My new episode is an interview with @nicholasmeyer.bsky.social , the director of The Day After! He talks about Thanksgiving meals with Oppenheimer, stormy times behind the scenes, and why The Day After sort of saved the world. Out now!

What a joy to interview @nicholasmeyer.bsky.social, the director of The Day After, for my podcast. He’s so funny, charismatic and cool. And he kind of saved the world. I want to be more like him! ❤️ @bangpodcast.bsky.social

The Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief hates information. Science is information, ergo… Had Enough?

How many wheels must fall off the bus before the damn thing finally grinds to a halt?

Had enough?

Why do humans always repeat their mistakes? Einstein said repeating the same thing and expecting a different result is insanity. Why do we persist? H.G. Wells said The first man who raises a fist is the man who's run out of ideas. Why are we do eager to make fists? There are no short wars.

Now ground troops? Really??? No one sees or objects to where this is heading? Many have already died. Many more now will. And why? Because Trump is deranged and surrounded by opportunistic gangsters.

Trump displays the uncanny ability to destroy everything he comes near - people, places, cities and civilizations. No one else in his league since… Atilla?

How did we manage to lose the war with Iran? We started it.

How many wheels must fall off the bus before we notice..?

Manages to wreck everything he touches. The White House. The Country. The world. How many must die to satisfy this idiot?

How many times can the wheels keep falling off the bus???

The guy goes around killing people, or, rather, ordering people to kill for him. And wants The Nobel Peace Prize? And we say nothing? Do nothing? When Pygmies cast shadows this long, you know what time it is. Closing time. Hellova birthday.

So this president goes around killing people, in boats, in cities, in countries. And remember, he wants the Nobel Peace Prize.

Washington warned Hamilton the army is not a toy. Now our president, who dodged his own military service, dispatches armed forces to kill alleged drug boat crews on the seas, shoot citizens on our city streets, and now attack foreign countries. And no one - judge, senator nor us - says a word?

Two-headed cat.

Is no one bothered that an infant is driving the bus? Must our fates be left to the reckless whims of this oversized baby? What a way to go…

“The people who must never have power are the humorless.” Christopher Hitchens.

Odd being airbrushed out of The Ultimate Guide to Star Trek, 60 Years on the Final Frontier. There's Roddenberry, J.J., also Kurtzman and Orci... but where's the guy who wrote or co-wrote, Treks II, IV and VI, who directed Treks II and VI? Now I know how Trotsky felt - waiting for the ice pick...

Sirat: Wages of Fear meets Bicycle Thieves meets Ice Cold in Alex. Thought the originals surpass the mashup.

Trump’s Stifling of Dissent Reaches a New Level www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

A gold statue of president Trump? Oh, right, wasn't there a gold calf in the Bible for folks to worship? I guess the calf has now grown into a full cow, but we're still expected to bow down? MOOOOO!

Why is that criminals - and I'm thinking child molesters at the moment - are only "ashamed" when they've been caught and named?

Ever notice that criminals and molesters are only "ashamed" after they've been caught?

Trump’s gestapo is shooting unarmed Americans in the streets. Where is the outrage? Are we so exhausted or inured to the actions of a dictator that we read, watch and shrug (maybe resignedly)?
