I hate hypocrisy with the fury of a thousand suns.

Also, being angry at my now-ex for coming home to "work" due to a power outage and yet I hear video game music coming up through the vents.

So, hypocrisy and another dickhead to manage while I clean and watch the kid.

The thrill of having a project to do, of gathering the materials, knowing that what you are creating is a labor of joy, boy, I missed it.

Ah yes, factory jobs, those wondrous vehicles of boredom and noted sketchy safety issues. People want to flock to put nitinoids into watchamadingers for 8 hours.

Oh yea, and robots are still "taking" those kinds of jobs.

And high paying? What, $1 above minimum wage? Cuz that sucks, too.
BARNICLE: What is the Treasury Dept doing to lessen job insecurity in this country?

BESSENT: What Trump is doing to bring back high-paying manufacturing jobs is all about job security

BARNICLE: How many jobs have come back?

BESSENT: It's just starting

There has to be a singularity created when an ICP reference is uttered, with complete sincerity, by the POTUS.

Tim Kaine on backlash he's getting: "I got the first good night's sleep last night that I've gotten since Oct 1, b/c I wasn't worried about being able to look Capitol Police in the eye when I walked in, or what a furloughed fed worker would say to me at church, or what somebody would say about SNAP"

These eight people are some of the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet. Every last one of them needs to be primaried.
Angus King: "This initial strategy didn't work. And now we have one. We're gonna have a guaranteed vote on the ACA, and it may not succeed. I grant that. But a reasonable chance -- 10, 20, 30% -- is a lot better than 0% which is where we were."

Watching my son lick his hand and then wipe it on the ceiling of his room (he has a bunk bed, so he can stand on the top bunk).

You know, I've been torn apart this past week by simply how profound my son's autism is. Obviously, he has behavioral tics. Hopefully the guanfacine helps.

However...

First: don't shoot at federal officers. It just makes things worse.

Second: don't use a vehicle for criming. Easily traceable.

Third: honestly struggling to feel much pity for the agents, but again, don't shoot at them. Eat at Subway, instead.
Border Patrol agents were conducting enforcement operations when DHS said a man driving in a black Jeep fired shots at them and took off.

DHS in a statement said "an unknown number of agitators also threw a paint can and bricks at border patrol’s vehicles.

That moment when I was looking up whether the symptoms I had were those of a hot flash and I get a Johns Hopkins article entitled, "Did I just have a hot flash? I'm 44!" has me all sorts of "JESUS FUCK, YES I'M OLD."

Note: I'm 44.

Had to take kidbutt to get blood drawn today. I admit that I dosed him up on melatonin to get him somewhat dopey, which made it exponentially easier to hold him in place to get the blood.

It has taken much more out of me emotionally (in addition to having my neck clawed) than I thought.

Boy, am I wishing for a particularly fulfilling miracle to happen but I most certainly not type that out.
TRUMP: So you would say that Ukraine can't win that war?

ORBAN: Miracle can happen

TRUMP: Yeah. That's right

My article that I submitted for publication has been sent to an editor. Not sure if this means they accepted it or if it means that they are reviewing it *to make a determination.* Either way, I am beyond jazzed and happy I even got this far.

Can't sleep due to pain. Laying on the couch and staring at the ceiling fan.

You know, there's politicians sidestepping questions, then there's malicious ignorance. If I was one of his constituents, I'd vote him out on principal. Christ, a primary candidate would have a field day with a supercut of his various "duh, I don't know" deflections.

The rank entitlement here. Are there bad owners who don't properly train their pets? Yes. But the line that
"we no longer say no to kids" is correlated with, "well it's no surprise dogs attack" is some conservative bullshit.

Awful owners exist. Start there, ffs.

Racist fucker. Hope he rots.
Q: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?"
