CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

As I understand it, the reason why Disney took Kimmel off the air is because one branch of the Disney business wants to aquire another business, and they need Trump's approval because of anti-trust constraints. Everyone is kissing Trump's ass so they can have monopolies.

There is a big line of protesters in front of Disney Studios in Burbank today.

Repost and 💙 if you stand with Jimmy Kimmel!

Yesterday, at the park where I walk my dog, I saw something very unusual. A man was walking two goats on leashes.

I am digusted by all the rumors about Paramount acquiring Warner Bros. If that happens, I hope they both go broke (and they probably will).

Is Trump waiting for the 2026 midterms to be over before he pardons Ghislaibe Maxwell?

@msnbc.com You owe Matthew Dowd an apology.

The thing Trump did that bothers me the LEAST was dodging the draft. The U.S. would have been better off if EVERYONE had dodged the draft during the Vietnam years because that war (which we lost) never did anyone any good. I didn't need to dodge the daft, because my draft number was over 300.

Ode to dad jokes: Let's all sit up / And laugh at a joke that was a bit before / Your father was born, / Though he was born a long, long time ago. / Your father would know. / Your father would know.

I visited the Museum of Religion in Washington D.C. once. The day I was there, the museum was asking visitors if they thought the Bible advocatedfreedom of religion. Most visitors said, "yes." Anyone who thinks the Bible advocates freedom of religion has never read the Bible.

If you're a reporter, please stop referring to RFK Jr and his cronies as "vaccine skeptics." They're not skeptical. Skepticism would be fine. Skeptics look at evidence and can be persuaded. These people are extremist anti-vaccine cranks, and that's how news organizations should describe them.

Nothing is 100% safe. I knew someone who had a bad Guillain-Barre related reaction to a flu shot, but he fully recovered. I still get a flu shot every year, because flu shots are safer than the flu. You have to play the odds. The odds favor vaccines.

The Senate grilled HHS Secretary RFK jr today. He was called a a charlatan and a liar. If he stays in office and guts our childhood vaccine program he will be a serial killer. He is tremendous danger us all www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDaP...

Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.

There should be a service where you could pay to get a phone call immediately as soon as Trump dies. I want to know right away.

I must own at least 20 anti-Trump t-shirts. I wear a clean one every day, all the time, except when I am going to a formal event. I am retired, so I do not have to worry about work-related dress codes.

When I was a kid in the 1950s, I used to see a cartoon parody of Red Riding Hood. The wolf is on trial, and at the end he says, "I 'll go straight - straight to grandma's house! This was NOT the Loony Tune "Trial of Mr. Wolf. It was definitely a different cartoon. Does anyone remember this?

I am skeptical about conspiracy theories, and I formerly thought that there was a very strong likelihood that Epstein really did commit suicide. But the longer it takes the Trump regime to release the Epstein files, the more likely I think it is that Epstein was murdered.

A horse has an ass / But listen, class, / You don' t want to talk to a horse's ass! / Just say, I pass." / Because the ass, / It could be Donald Trump! / When most people start to talk / it doesn't matter a bit /But when Trump will open his mouth / Then out will come nothing but shit!

My dog does not understand physics. She believes that if we go for a walk and she's on a leash, she can walk on one side of a tree and I can walk on the other side, with no problem with the leash. She is correct, but only because I untangle the leash.

As a devotee of William Shakespeare, I own the Barbie & Ken dressed up as Romeo and Juliet doll set. Should Mattel release another Shakespeare doll set? What would you like? Hamlet and Ophelia? Macbeth and Lady Macbeth? Othello and Desdemona?

Come a' listen to my story / About J. D. Vance / Such a poor mountaineer/ Couldn't buy a pair of pants/ And then one day he was shootin' at a gopher/ When he preferred to be lying on a sofa.

In 2016, in a movie theater, I watched a screening of the RSC's "Shakespeare Live." Last night I was delighted to discover it was available for streaming on Amazon Prime. I highly recommend it.

I just submitted an entry to this week's New Yorker cartoon caption contest. I think this is my finest entry ever, and I will be very upset if I am not a finalist.

When I was very young, my favorite science fiction book was "Danger: Dinosaurs," credited to Richard Marsten, who also used the names Evan Hunter and Ed McBain. The book made no sense at all, but was an exciting story for a child.

Someone should make a film based on "Mollie" by A. J. Liebling - the true story of a World War II army private who broke all the rules and went on whatever missions he wanted to, until he was killed. It reads like a comic book come to life, until Mollie gets killed.

I am a citizen of the United States. When I was in grade school, we were required to sing a piece of crap song called "This Is My Country" about how the U.S. is the absolute best country on Earth. I hope children are not required to sing that shit anymore, especially with Trump as President.

If you believe it is more important to build a nuclear power plant on the moon than it is to develope new treatments for cancer, then you should do humanity a big favor and cease to exist.

The first time I saw Shakespeare's "Cymbeline" performed was in Ashland, Oregon. The last scene was played as farce, and it was hilarious. I thought it was true to the text and I thought it worked perfectly. I've never seen another production with the last scene played as farce. Any thoughts?

I purchased a little medallion with my dog's name and our phone number on it, and I attached the medallion to my dog's collar. I told my dog it was so that if she lost her collar and someone else found it, the person who found the collar could call my dog and let her know they found it.

I love Edgar Allen Poe, but when he swings and misses, he misses BIG! I just finished his very short story "The Sphinx." What inexcusable crap!

I love my late father, Robert R. Nathan, and always will. But he had a big hand in the creation of the military industrial complex. He worked for FDR in world war II, and helped move US industiries to primarily a military economy. He thought the economy would move back after the war ended, but ..

@crobertcargill.bsky.social When I first saw Doctor Strange, I loved it. It is my favorite Marvel film. A year after I saw it, I needed heart surgery, and I had a bad reaction to the a anthesia. I was in a coma for 2 months, and when I woke up, my hands were damaged. Really.

"Doctor Strange" is my favorite Marvel film and my favorite Marvel character. He woke up from a coma with his hands screwed up, and the sme thing happened to me. I was In a coma for 2 months. During that time, the hospital restrained my hands. I could not move my fingers for 2 months.

Paramount / CBS is paying Trump 15 million dollars for Trump's hurt feelings resulting from their interview with Kamala Harris. To sue Paramamount, Trump had to show damages. He won the election, so his only damages was hurt feelings. What a pathetic wimp.

Trump said today that he kept talking about Hannibal Lector because "We won in a landslide." He is bonkers, nuts, looney tunes, f---ing insane! And while he won the 2024 election, he did NOT win it in a landslide.

This pic is recent. I checked! 🤗

Some people are not going to be happy about this, but my favorite sign at the "No Kings" rally today was the one that said, "Stop making me like Gavin Newsom."

I CHATTER HEP PATTER

I was walking my dog this morning and I asked her what she was going to get me for my upcoming birthday. A moment later, she hopped off the curb and started sniffing a dead squirrel. I told her I DO NOT WANT A DEAD SQUIRREL FOR MY BIRTHDAY - but I do not think she was listening to me.

What if H G Wells's "The Time Machine" was about a future when the pampered Elons lived on the surface of the Earth, and were cared for by the MAGAlocks, in exchange for being fed any of the Elons's children that the Elons do not like?

A doctor will almost always stand up for another doctor, even if the doctor is not paid for the endorsement, and even if the doctor is at fault. A lawyer will almost never stand up for another lawyer, unless he is paid for the endorsement, even if the lawyer is not at fault. I am a retired lawyer.
