For thirty years, I worked in film and Democratic politics.
Now, I live in a forest north of New Orleans, where it’s always beautiful and quiet.
I think I’ve made it to Home Plate safely.

Roasting over a campfire makes marshmallows crunky.

Oh, I read that story of the young man who hung himself. Didn't AI (that his parents believed was helping him study) teach him how to tie the hangman’s knot?
One of the saddest stories of late.

What’s the consensus: Is Welker doing a little better, or not?

Look for simply printed signs about 7’ high on telephone polls.
“Deep State Secret Antifa meeting tonight!
—> Follow the signs into the basement of Yoga studio.”

I bet half of the 30% are day drinkers. Just a wild guess!

Dr. Oz, how many hours will I waste making crudité?
How many hours do you waste bloviating?

God! That’s funny! Oh, he is so full of himself.

Jill, I’ve found Substack is a good place to read news and opinions.

The Christian Right is so f’d up by putting their faces on more golden statues of themselves than Nebuchadnezzar had.

MAGA’s are the most horrible and the most false Christians.

No, thank you.

Ba-da-la “and his coupious hair gel.” Ba-da-bing!

Let’s note too how similar their tactics are for Kirk to their numerous
re-glorifications of president pervert. Dr. Bandy X Lee will have fascinating thoughts.

What an image! Bravo!

This hideous moment should never, ever be forgotten. This extermination rhetoric is what the 2025 white supremacists want and are primed to carry out. Now.

They are irredemnably cruel.

Excellent! Newsom’s “I’m better at everything” slide show feels like the final flashbacks of our collective nightmare.

Prolly not! We’re just amusing ourselves by guessing what’s the final straw going to be?

Me as well, and for more uproarish laughter I listen to Jennifer and Pumps — I’ve Had It” YouTube channel.

Rap, I love that you mentioned powder rooms! We still ask for them when visiting in The South.

And, if I may add to your suggestion, analogies you’d normally make with your friends do not compute with Trumpers because they do not know US history much less world history.

You lost them all at ‘derived’.

It’s so strange they think we’ve all had lobotomies.
