New kid on the (cell) block. Prison chaplain. Dad & granddad. Author of 'Midge Fly and The End of The World', one of the finest books ever to go unpublished. Inventor of a boardless board game. Looking for decent and intelligent debate. Striving to do good and to do better. Sick of Trump and Elmo.
If Melania hadn't been there to give him directions, Trump would still be stuck on that escalator.

So they say they can't afford gas and eggs, but somehow they manage to raise thousands of dollars, book hotel rooms, and fly to D.C. in order to watch the Tangerine Tantrum being inaugurated? Did I get that right?

The great thing about Elmo buying Twitter and then going full-blown MAGA bonkers is that he made the platform completely irrelevant. Once a force to be reckoned with, it is now a cloud chamber echoing right-wing conspiracy nonsense which no one on the outside cares about. Madness has been contained.

So this is what MAGA policy boils down to: Trying to decide who gets to use which restrooms.

X is rapidly becoming Elmo's own $44 bn version of the delusionally named Truth Social, a madman's monstrously misused megaphone.

Imagine being so insecure that you need someone like Trump in order to find a father figure who'll at least pretend to like you, and so desperate for attention that you'd order your code department to change the X algorithm so your own posts pollute everybody's timeline.
Good thing Elmo's not here.

I always had an almost desperate urge to read. Books. Newspapers. Magazines. Comics. Plays. Anything. And then, one day I thought I'd try writing instead of reading. 13 weeks later, everything I'd ever read and found interesting had been condensed into this:
