I used AI to generate this last summer, before Trump was reelected. One of my (now former) FB "friends" accused me of TDS--Trump Derangement Syndrome. Oh, I'm sick alright, sick to death at Trump and his equally deranged followers.

Liempo and veggies. A perfect meal. ❤️ from the Philippines.

Preparing for grilling liempo tonight with a dry Rob Roy. Two measures of Scotch, a half measure of dry vermouth, some bitters, and, to mix things up, a maraschino cherry instead of the usual olives or a lemon twist. Don't forget to live and enjoy life, folks. It ain't over until it's over.

Took a break from the bad news and visited a patch of paradise. Thanks to the friendly folks in San Isidro, Balilihan, Bohol.

Finally, someone of stature has voiced what I've been saying since the election.

Man, was this ever enjoyable. We watched parts 1-3 over three successive nights and it was compelling. Much recommended.
