I‘ve been Claude Rains since the days of Usenet. Shocked? Invisible most of the time. Photography, dogs playing, caretaker & cook. Urbanism, more bike paths…please? Drives a big, blue TARDIS.

That sound you heard was every GOP elected official with a lick of sense absolutely SHITTING themselves thinking about the visual of Mark Kelly back in uniform before a military court as Whiskey Pete's handpicked chucklefucks try to railroad him on bogus charges.

Man, living in Nazi America is just one slimy intrusion by the state into day-to-day life, after another. Even the corporations are dragooned into it.

For Example, #Sling presents favorite channels on the Home screen. I watch FauxNews maybe once or twice a year, max, so, not a fav.

Declaring the “case, along with a separate prosecution of New York Attorney General Letitia James, have stirred concerns that the Justice Department is being weaponized to pursue President Donald Trump’s political opponents” is like saying Steerage on the Titanic is damp.

Judge scolds Justice Department for 'disturbing pattern of profound investigative missteps' in Comey case
The judge wrote that prosecutor's "fundamental misstatements of the law" include unexplained irregularities in the transcript of the grand jury proceedings.

So, I had a nice , relaxing Sunday afternoon, on the couch, sipping Swiss Miss & finishing up season 2 of C.O.B.R.A., watching fictional characters handling government crisis, and when I plug back in to what we laughingly call Reality, the POTUS is jibbering nonsense about Venezuela & this 🤪 chyron

They released the entire prison population of Venezuela into the United States…”

And they’re all here to eat the dogs and the cats, right?

I can’t believe that USN admirals are sailing carrier groups around under his orders, with his clearly escalating madness. I just hope no one’s killed.

I just inadvertently stumbled into the Wikipedia page on the history of the Kawasaki KI-61, and DAMN! That’s Some Crazy 💩, T-Boning B-29’s 😳

Cranky Old Dudeness, ACTIVATED!

This TV ad campaign for the stage production of STEREOPHONIC is Really, Really Bad. I don't know what they are thinking, but a 5-second glimpse of 5 to 7 people, dressed in, IDK, 70's vintage clothes, singing a line or two of an unknown-but-vaguely-familiar tune?

Emily Austin, a right wing 'influencer' who works for Bibi and the GOP, launched 'Hot Girls for Cuomo'.
Guess who didn't bother to register the URL when she did that? What do you think Hot Girls for Cuomo dot com leads to now? 😂😂😂

It true. That was probably the best game I’ve ever seen.
Now that was a World Series...

So proud of our BlueJays. They made them earn it.

Congratulations to the Dodgers and their fans!

Toronto sunk by Yamamoto. #WorldSeries
November 2, 2025 at 4:21 AM
Free by base is good too.
November 2, 2025 at 4:17 AM
How is Yamamoto’s arm still attached?
November 2, 2025 at 4:16 AM
YEEEESSSS!!! Nice Hit, Dominguez.
November 2, 2025 at 4:16 AM
Well, I guess I should have expected that, right? Dammit anyway

Midnight in Toronto would be a great title of a song, wouldn’t it?
November 2, 2025 at 4:03 AM
Yamamoto is going back on the mound in the 10TH INNING? Man, LA’s getting every bit of their money’s worth out of him, aren’t they? #WorldSeries
November 2, 2025 at 3:52 AM
😮 this game is AMAZING! 🤩 And FRUSTRATING! It’s a sin to strand all those guys on base in the 9th inning, in a tied game. #WorldSeries
November 2, 2025 at 3:43 AM
This is pretty much the best baseball game I’ve ever seen. #WorldSeries #Toronto #BlueJays

I have to admit, I love the name on the back of that player’s jersey… #YESAVAGE
November 2, 2025 at 2:45 AM
Day-yam! After the LA pitcher beans the Jays batter, the next Jays batter gets a hit, and nails the assh*le pitcher! Instant Karma! #WorldSeries
November 2, 2025 at 1:32 AM
Oh, man! The Jays can hit! I love it.
November 2, 2025 at 1:06 AM
F*€king A Blue Jays!!! Great Hit!
