Why is no one saying that our country, as a collective, is TOO BIG TO FAIL? We give that "too big to fail" designation to businesses needing a bailout, but 348M people, including 174M eligible voters, don't matter? We need to act as big as we really are.

It's amazing how the market rallies on the mere fact that we weren't going to die today. #LowBarEconomics

This is how it’s done. Stand up to these assholes.
Republican congressman Keith Self introduced transgender Representative Sarah McBride as "Mr. McBride."

Sarah snapped back and called him madam chair.

Dem Congressman Bill Keating went off on Rep. Self and adjourned the meeting over his lack of decorum and purposeful targeting of Sarah McBride.

I realize the mistake of our ways. We should have named all DEI initiatives as Second Amendment Initiatives (2A All the Way). Then maybe it would have flown under the radar, which, by the way, will be dismantled once the DOGE RAM F*CK gets to the FAA.

Not sure if FIFA is too corrupted or has the guts but withdrawing US venues from 2026 World Cup would be a severe blow to tourism, transportation and peripheral businesses. Mexico and Canada already hosting matches so a shift wouldn’t be so severe for the event IMO. On what grounds? Fascism? 🤷‍♂️

Given what we're up against as of January 20th, a black cat at my door this morning, me walking under my ladder while trying to hang lights and it being Friday the 13th means absolutely nothing anymore. They've ruined superstitions!

Louis f***ing DeJoy.

Remember those perfectly good sorting machines that he ordered removed? An email arrived today that included this:
"Manual sorting: Overwhelmed automatic sorting machines mean USPS is relying more on manual sorting to maintain operations." Guess no one saw that coming. #FFS

I was inspired by @mcaffrey81.bsky.social who suggested that yet another word salad answer in TFG's recently aired Meet The Press interview on NBC sounded like someone offering clues to a topic on the 70s show the $10,000 Pyramid. Enjoy.

N400 US Naturalization application question. Think of all who would be disqualified had they not already been citizens.

Thought: They're telegraphing their fever dream theft. Strip money from everyone then make them beg for jobs & health as cheap/free subjects. Either it explodes into an unsustainable [block]chain reaction, a China Syndrome that takes everyone with it, or the brave plant enough land mines to trip it.

And on the 7th day, the caravans receded, the last pet was eaten, the cities rose from the ashen ruins of unrelenting violence, crime waned, the economy soared, and gas and egg prices instantly calmed like the soft licks of receding waves against a beaten shoreline. #ThingsSuddenlyNoLongerInTheNews

As Musk is in the news a lot recently, I thought I'd point you to a TEDx talk I gave ~5ya, 'There Is No Planet B'.

I call out the illogic & falsity of claims that we'll colonize Mars, or live in space colonies. And if I'd had more time, I cld have mentioned a lot more. 🧪🛰️🔭⚛️🌍

Please Repost. Thanks!

OK. I just designed and uploaded this for those who might want to "throw some eggs" when the time comes. Sure it's not for everyone, but if we're to believe that it really was about eggs, then consider it a bargain! #ButMahEggs eggs.printify.me/products
