I made this to respond to some friends/family on Facebook but figured I may as well share it here too, because I think it's an important message I think people should hear.

I'll link to the landscape version in a reply below. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8n9j...
Yeah, I am angry.

Someone remake “It’s a Wonderful Life” but Mr. Potter believes that hoarding is morally required so he can devote resources to delivering a far future with trillions of humans while George Bailey is like, “Gosh Darnit! What if taking care of people today is what takes care of people in the future?!”

The person charged with enforcing the laws is an open lawbreaker, assisted by a team of open lawbreakers, backed by a Congressional majority indifferent to lawbreaking, supported by a Supreme Court that privileges them to break the law.

It has no legitimacy whatsoever.
The person charged with enforcing the laws is himself a law breaker. In such a state, do laws even have any legitimacy?

Is there insurance you can buy that will cover your family's expenses in the event that you happen to encounter an irresistibly-punchable person in public (like, say a politician or one of their evil cronies) and wind up in prison for assault?

Just curious.

Whenever I visit my parents, I like to Seuss-ify the grocery list they keep on a whiteboard on their fridge. Both of these only had one item on the list before I made my improvements.

I know that many other cities don’t plow their sidewalks, leaving it up to property owners. This is completely crazy to me.

Our sidewalk plows look like this and they do a pretty good job.

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

Free podcast name idea from the crazy old coot: "A Couple of Wokesters."
Trump on AI: "You can't go through 50 states. You have to get one approval. 50 is a disaster. Because you'll have one woke state and you'll have to do all woke. You'll be back in the woke business. We don't have woke anymore in this country. It's virtually illegal. You'll have a couple of wokesters"

Hot tip for ppl who live in the Pacific NW & miss the old Costco muffins:

WinCo now sells _very similar_ muffins! Maybe a tad bit smaller, but very close.

They have all the classic flavors: almond poppyseed, double chocolate, blueberry, & a ton of NEW flavors, like huckleberry lemon! 😋 #food

It’s wild that you can just openly bribe the President of the United States with chunks of gold to get
whatever you want, it’s fine, you don’t have to hide it, just say “I am bribing the President with gold,” zero consequences.
