A little morning silliness for ya. (And yeah, I used a filter — damn, I’m 64! 😜)

THE LIST KEEPS GROWING … of countries cautioning their citizens about visiting the United States: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, & the UK. Utterly mortifying. See links in comments for deets!

People from other countries don’t deserve a hostile deportation from the U.S. Sign a petition to move the 2028 Summer Olympics ANYWHERE else. I suggest Canada or Mexico: chng.it/YV99kCxTRN

I was going to retire to Europe in 2027 with modest savings and Social Security. Now Trump had tanked the economy, and he’s pissing off other countries by deporting LEGAL immigrants. I’ll be lucky if ANY country will welcome an American.

I genuinely first read those sentences with the L in “cult” as an N. Still kind of applies.

Been on the phone today so far with my glucose monitor provider, the pharmacy, a medical billing office, my eye doctor, and a random fuckwad telemarketer who slipped under my detection radar. That’s enough interactions with humans and phone systems for the moment, thank you very much. #introvert

Our thuggish POTUS disgraced the U.S. at the Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian president Zelenskyy. Here's the AP transcript, with my opinions noted in red. (I don't expect my thoughts to go down in history, but I had to say it out loud anyway.) READ HERE: drive.google.com/file/d/1jecZ...

Zelensky got in a zinger in the Oval Office. When critiqued for casual clothes, he said he’d wear a costume again when the war was over. Even better: In English, it sounds like a dig at the suited guys there. In Ukrainian, the word for “suit” (костюм) sounds a lot like “costume”: shorturl.at/7c88L

President Zelensky, I’m mortified as an American to be represented by this thuggish orange fool. You brought your A game to the White House, and he brought his A-hole game. Decent Americans support Ukraine.

Let’s normalize pronouncing DOGE as either “doggy” or “dodgy.”

We’re in our “Call a Turd a Turd” Era.

Why does anyone listen to this bleary-eyed trash panda? Fascists are so full of 💩 their eyes are turning brown. #SteveBannonSucks

Meta boosts its execs’ bonuses (up to 200% of base pay!). 😡 Announced it a week after laying off 5% of work force. That is some damned NERVE.

Some butt-kissing lawmaker wants to make a federal holiday out of Donald Trump's birthday. I am hereby issuing an OMFG Red Alert.

A Republican House bill wants to empower Trump to buy or “otherwise acquire” (as in via war?!) Greenland … and rename it “Red, White, and Blueland.” In honor of this idiocy, I offer the whattest of fucks. 😑 Read the bill here: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

What’s YOUR Trump slur de jour? My most obscure favorite is “the Count of Mostly Crisco.” But Tangerine Tyrant is more accurate.

High on the list of things that made me happy today: Ridiculous Christmas ornaments still on sale. I give you … Mer-Santa.
