Chris Hayes is very, very smart. And, hopefully, prophetic about how we respond to social media and all the other siren calls for our attention. Maybe a different revolution coming.

Seriously, hasn't it been said somewhere that planes falling out of the sky are a sign of the End Times? That and the Antichrist with the Tribble on his head?

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt.
This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

I will "celebrate" today, January 20, 2025, by reading, sleeping, reading some more, and maybe watching some Deadly Women or a Friends marathon -- depending on my mood. My TV will be on and tuned to anything that is not pointed at DC. I'll check the news tonight. Maybe. A day to endure.

I'm with you on that one, Mrs. Obama. When the GOP treats you like shit with their hypocrisy, racism, and bigotry, why in the world would ANYONE support Trump's grabbing of power?
Fuck that. I stand with you.
