George Carlin’s sarcastic view of killing: he said substitute the word f**k for the word kill. In a Western movie we would say: alright sheriff, I’m going to f**k you. I’m going to f**k you slowly. You deserve nothing better than me f**king you slowly. Luckily, no one cursed. Dead kids-meh. WTF!!!!

Oh. Consider the nausea weightlessness can induce. Did our alien visitors master travel through wormholes? Did our alien visitors master a slowly consumed fuel source? Why travel this far and not gobble up Earth’s gold, platinum, and ruthenium? The science to travel this far merits actual thought.

Science is critically important to raising the life standards of people in any nation. A thought to add: empathy and a desire to foster tolerance is foundational. America has brought in brilliant minds from across the globe. Could we have done this with flaming racism as a national characteristic?

Quand je deviens agacè par quelque chose, je poste dans Français. Porquoi glorifiez personnes paresseuse? For the love of Jesus-murder is the definition of laziness. Protest and creating change takes actual effort. Did Barack Obama use a snub nosed .22? No, he used wit and empathy. Lord save me.

Money is the social analogue of motor oil. Money lubricates situations where friction is undesirable and seizing up is not an option. My query is this: does Amazon anticipate friction with the Trump administration? Is a million dollars enough “lubrication” to avoid friction? Yet to be determined.

In the spirit of strength: la peur dans vos yeux révélez votre inquiétude. Démontrez résolution et forcez la foule MAGA montrer leur ignorance alarmante à propos de décence humain. Bonté toujours réussissent à le fin.
If we don’t hope in good’s inevitability, then we are toast. I vote for hope.

He is correct. Her visit to Assad’s government during Trump’s first term was ill advised. Was she speaking for Trump at that time? She wasn’t a Gang of Eight member. So why the visit? A Mitch McConnell visit would have been the right move, not hers. Sadly, if not her, Trump will find another goof.

Beauty may only be skin deep, BUT we don’t f**kin hate you for what’s underneath. The truth is my poor attempts at humour are landmines to be dodged. Sorry guys. Dad jokes are a sad part of the male aging process, so stay young & fun just as you are. Just realise that in 20 years, this could be you.

Random thought: couldn’t we view the “blanket pardon” like auto insurance? You are not “required” to have an auto accident. Insurance lessens the financial sting. Why should Liz Cheney do “fundraising” for legal bills? Couldn’t this be her “auto insurance”? Must we rely on Trump having decency? Sigh

….shot in the face? Lastly, remember that the legend of Friday the 13th has a Crusaders/ Knights Templar origin. Didn’t the French King Phillip on a Friday the 13th send his army after the Templars? Something about too much plundered wealth not being in the king’s coffers? Bigotry needs to cease-now

….when that person failed to worship in a particular flavor? Also, in the 700s AD, did the Mayan priest performing various blood letting rituals suffer from doubt as to his religious correctness? Isn’t there a saying that history is written by the victors? Should Japanese Shinto practicers be….

I am probably going to come across as a wanker. I’m sorry in advance for any offense that I might convey. It’s commendable that Pete Hegseth wants to curtail his alcohol consumption. That’s great, full stop. However, a 22 page police report about sexual assault that ended in an NDA agreement. Yikes!
December 5, 2024 at 12:04 AM
Sadly, his qualifications are that he has successfully become the burr in your saddle. Isn’t this part of Trump’s Trollapalooza? Not saying that General Stanley McChrystal is floating to heaven due to his soul’s purity, but compared to Pete Hegseth, McChrystal is at least “normal”. Trollapalooza!!

Another protest song (a noisy one at that): Speak, Lie, Repeat by the band Stay//Asleep. Again, yes that is their name. They are from London.

Poor editing incident number two: “I am dumbstruck” sounds better than “I dumbstruck”. There is a reason Penguin Publishing Group doesn’t employ me. Sigh.

I do see your point. Still, a nation of 335 million people, and all that we can come up with as a nominee to the government of one of our greatest friends, France, is Charles Kushner? I dumbstruck. Heck, even Sen. Mike Lee of Utah would be better.
December 2, 2024 at 1:40 AM
Ah. Well played. Consider this for our overly confident, dismissive of the French “friends” we have here in America: Permets moi a détrompe vous de l’ idée que vous marchez sur eau. Maybe Charles Kushner can get Google Translate to convey the sarcasm.

Marquis De Lafayette and Pierre Charles L’Enfant (both French) helped in the American Revolution. I hope this fact doesn’t escape you. Paris is worth the US’ best. The French word for remember is souvenir. Apparently certain Americans “don’t remember”. Is it time to cry or scream right now? Sigh.
December 1, 2024 at 7:51 PM
The choice makes sense. Why would Donald Trump want to present to France an envoy that represents the best of conservative America. Nikki Haley doesn’t exist. Mitt Romney doesn’t exist. Heck, Stanley McChrystal doesn’t exist. Didn’t our moms say don’t show your ass in public? Lord help us all.
December 1, 2024 at 4:00 AM
I recall you had asked about protest songs. May I suggest: Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival and England Today by TEEFF. Yes, that is their name. They are a band from Leeds in England.
