No argument here. Oh, and since he's dead, I need to say it. "Nothing of value was lost."

Uh.... ..... ........... I don't remember. Like, by the time I was in my teens, I was renting the Friday the 13th movies and such, so maybe I wasn't scared by films?

Yeah, there's going to be some people who absolutely will lose their shit immediately after the midterms, not including Trump, because of course he will. Could get a little spicy.

It should probably bother me less that Blizzard's in-game clock is a couple minutes slow.

Yeaaaaaah, that's a terrible fucking idea for many reasons. Like, literally, do not take any fucking health advice from influencers, especially ones who say things like "vaccine toxicity" and doubly-so for ones who drink from radioactive jugs.

Me: Oh yeah, what was the final score of that college football game I caught part of yesterday? *checks online* Yuuuup. As I expected, my alma mater lost. By only one point, but they had been up by 17 at one point, so.... yeah.

So.... do these accounts start with any seed money in them? Because if they do, it occurs to me that having a process of "we closed the account, and the account holder has no claim to any money in it" could be abused, particularly by this administration.

When even Fox News knows that the rallies aren't worth covering....

As opposed to the sterling condition it is under Trump?

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

So.... given that the GOP is almost certainly going to lose control of the House in the midterms, this is nothing more than bloviating bullshit. He's not going to have the power or ability to do anything of substance.

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Although, let's be honest here. They -SAY- they're sending these checks out. Will they actually do it? Given how often this administration has shot itself in the foot, it's possible that they won't.

So, either I'm using a lot more table knives between times of running the dishwasher, or I've accidentally/absentmindedly thrown a couple out. I'm leaning towards the latter.

Well, of course I don't find out the old school D&D game tomorrow night is cancelled until -AFTER- I go to the grocery store. ...... I suppose that just means I'll have to get sushi or a poke bowl for dinner tomorrow night. OH DARN.

GOP candidates: Okay, okay, maybe he'll have his shit together, and won't drag us even lower in the polls. Trump: Dumb has a 'b' on the end! Who knew? GOP candidates: *drinking heavily*

Me: Okay, the head cold or lung crud or whatever that was has been gone for days, my back isn't bothering me much any more..... *sigh* What fresh pain will show up now? *left ankle starts to ache* Well, there we go.

Again, considering the amount of his brain that has melted, does he know he's lying, or does he actually believe that bullshit?

000

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

..... fucking why? He resigned 52 years ago, and died in '94. Hell, is there anyone from that scandal still alive? So why waste time and money on this? Yes, yes, I know, the answer is obvious.

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

..... this isn't even "the weave", this is just brain dribblings. If Trump weren't President, honestly, his kids would be doing the same thing that Trump and his siblings did to his father, Fred Trump, which is feed him pretend work and keep him isolated as a way to "manage" his dementia.

In case you were considering the possibility that Republicans were going to move away from the zero-evidence random fucking conspiracy theories..... you needn't worry.

Dear Trumplethinskin, that's because the lies you tell yourself are revealed as the lies they are every time someone goes to the gas station or the grocery store.

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

You know, it's not impossible that he's just going to die like that one of these days. Like, they're just standing around kissing his ass, and they think he's asleep, but he's not. And that, honestly, would be fucking hilarious.

Gosh, ya think? Also, it's probably a little late for that.

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

I'm sure all that plane travel will do wonders for his swollen cankles. And maybe, just possibly, have absolutely no effect on the GOP's approval rating, unless it's to drive it lower.

Donald Trump, slowly transforming into a Stretch Armstrong figure left in the summer sun for just a bit too long.

Okay, this "nothing is ever a Very Special Boy's fault" is going a bit far. Why not blame Jimmy Carter? Or FDR? Or whoever took us off the whale oil standard? (I don't know if that was a thing. Shut up.)

Mad Bastard @madbastard-v2.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

So wait, his big 2 p.m. announcement is "one state is getting steel mill, therefore I'm awesome, and you should vote for the GOP"? Man, that's fucking pathetic.

I'm not sure how they managed it, but my health and dental insurance portal has managed to have the payment system down for days now. Luckily, calling in a payment still works, but sheesh.

It will start at least 15 minutes late because they'll have to pump him full of just enough uppers, and it will be his usual litany of lies, bullshit and FUD.

*seeing Evangelical Atheists post on here* (Thank you, @taradeenihan.bsky.social, for that term.) .... you know, if I have ever come across like that, I apologize. I mean, I'm an atheist, but I do my best not to pick on other people's religious beliefs.

There's not much you can do in New York to gain yourself the permanent ire of the entire city, but stealing a bodega cat will definitely do it.

Okay, for an HP OfficeJet Pro 6978, do I have to buy HP branded cartridges, or can I get away with generic/off-brand ones? Basically, will the printer refuse to acknowledge the generic/off-brand ones?

The proper response to that is, "Yeaaaaah, no we're not."

I have degrees in Mechanical Engineering and in Computer Science. For both of those degrees, I had to take a number of humanities electives, and most of the ones I took were history classes.
