Nobody special. Been a soldier, musician, engineer. Now just trying to stay real.
So, Mad King Donnie disappears for days on end and and is a physical wreck, Nazi proselytize Steven Miller is shouting about imaginary insurrection, Pam Bondi fighting with Senators, and the rest of the clown riot is running amok! I am SO tired of this!

I gave my copy of the Constitution (pocket edition) to my grandson so he can check for himself if what he hears about laws and how government is supposed to work is in the Constitution. I got another copy from Amazon, so I am also ready to fact check. It's a WONDERFUL hobby!

I am SO SICK of the crap in America, I am going to talk about Ukraine.

Why?

Because Ukraine is OWNING the battle space against Russia and North Korea! I just watched a video where Ukraine executed a classic standard pattern minefield trap which destroyed a 170-unit NK mech force IN MINUTES! Yes!

Shots fired! This time it's right wing commentator Charlie Kirk. Who will be next?

MAGA and the Trump regime have brought this about! We haven't seen levels of intimidation and violence since Civil Rights and Vietnam War protests. People, it is HERE! DUCK AND COVER!

This land is your land, and this land is my land.

From California to the New York Island!

From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters!

This land was made for you and me!

We need an HHS Secretary who respects science and does not make policy based on conspiracy theories.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Kennedy is threatening the health of our kids and all Americans.

He must resign.

Hey, everybody! Heads up! Amazon is changing their content access to be based on subscriber location. I find this unacceptable! I tried to complain but got trapped in an AI loop that tried to charge me $5 for tech support. SCREW THAT!

Holy cow! I see Elon Musk is following me.

Hey Elmu, you IMMIGRANT! Go AWAY! Eat shit and DIE!

I DREAM of the day when YOU, and your FASCIST broligargarch buddies are BROUGHT DOWN, just like the Ku Klux Klan!

This man was courageous enough to stand up to Trump and Vance.

So it's important to post this message and photo to 27 million people.

Don't just "like" it -- that only means that YOU'VE seen it.

Postb it, blow it up and get it out there!

It's easy to get things wrong on live television, and you often don't realize your mistakes until afterwards.

Tony Soprano was far more honest, trustworthy, decent, honorable, moral, and intelligent than Trump.

My sincerest apologies to Carmela, Meadow, and A.J.

It's a sad day for the jalapeno. Temperatures have been high the last few days and it suffered scorched leaves. It has dropped most of the leaves but the stem looks strong. We'll see if it recovers.

Stay tuned for more drama.

Here's an update on the peppers growing in what I have come to think of as my patio paradise. Left to right: Santa Fe Grande (these suckers are habanero hot), Jalapeño, Tabasco.

Here's a thought for those enthusiastically joining ICE. We have had bands of hooded and masked terrorists roaming the countryside before, the Ku Klux Klan.

THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES!

Not a threat. A statement of history.

Forgive me while I engage in some fan worship:

1) Heather Cox Richardson, my No.1 goto for United States history. Thanks, lady, for keeping me grounded!

2) Roy Casagranda is a very close 2nd, with the added advantage of world history!

3) The remaining history providers for filling in the gaps!

It seems something similar is happening now. Trump's MAGA has spent decades setting up to fight against the liberal concensus, leading to a feeling of the loss of Heaven's Mandate. In other words, it is a grand propaganda scheme leading us to failure.

So, what will we do?

Here's a wild thought. I have been reading up on Chinese Imperial history on YouTube (so you KNOW my fact base is solid.) They operated under something called the Mandate of Heaven, which I understand means something like having popular support.
