Accidental feral cat rescuer. Sometimes people helper. Ex-Marine from long ago and far away. Ex-lots of occupations.
Good question. As soon as I saw the headline, I went the opposite way.😂

Ah, but back in May of 2018, Maggie Haberman said, in essence, "we can't accuse trump of lying because he often believes his own bullshit." So you see? He's a (self-)delusional mental case more so than a compulsive liar.
Just makes me feel ever so much better.

Good morning. Well, morning anyway. Here in the Southern Tier of New York State, we replaced one winter advisory/watch/warning with another. I think this one is in effect until late March or early April.

Yesterday would have been Blue Rodeo and their song "Bad Timing." Today's would be lyrical bastardizations of the 2 to 4 Christmas songs someone in our area has been playing on a 24-7 loop over a PA system since just after Thanksgiving. (Truth be told, I've bastardized the lyrics daily in my head.)

Standing on a railroad crossing, watching a passenger train coming at me. My mom was carrying my sister, my dad had hold of my brother's hand, brother let go of my hand, and I wasn't supposed to cross without holding somebody's hand so I stopped. Stationmaster retrieved me.

I've been selective in my reading there as well. One thing I do enjoy is those who write in depth. So far I've had minimal contact with MAGAs and Nazi types.

😂I'm still blundering around there myself. By my estimate, I should have it pretty well figured out 10 or 12 years after I'm dead.

😂Appreciate the offer, but I'm good.
(You could be onto a real business opportunity here!)

I am so ashamed, but what do you expect from a guy who made goulash for Christmas dinner? And you'll note that it wasn't even "ghoulash," made with real ghouls.

I laughed. Pretty sure this means I'm going to hell.

Better still would be to have masked guys in riot gear conduct the arrest(s). Their uniforms would say ICE but no name tags or other identification.
