A plea to media outlets: Stop using the euphemism "unhinged"! Replace it with something more honest and literal like: IRRATIONAL, or crazy or dysfunctional or delusional. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Xi is statig to be more specific about where he places his navy around Taiwan. Putin is transferring $ to That Stupid Old Man's Swiss account as we speak. Netanyahu is drawing up plans to annex the West Bank and invade Syria. Invading your neighbor has been given carte blanche! Congrats Congress!

Males are the single biggest threat to public safety anywhere, anytime, under any circumstances. If there were any other trait shared by 99% of perpetrators we would erect guardrails to monitor and control those with that trait.

When the media calls That Stupid Old Man a "Strongman" he takes it as approval. He sees himself as manly and strong and basks in the supposed praise/recognition. We should only refer to him as Dictator, Demagogue, Felon, Rapist, Abuser, Criminal, Autocrat, Insurrectionist, or That Stupid Old Man.

I'm going to assume that Mr. Kirk didn't mind being shot today since he thought gun deaths were an acceptable, even necessary, feature of life in these here United States. And, since he was contemptuous of the concept of empathy, he would not welcome our "thoughts and prayers" even for his family.

For some reason Bluesky wouldn't let me post my march video vertically. At any rate, because of where the march was staged it's impossible to see the whole crown at once. It extends down the street in both directions. I reckon 10-15K

I’m taking my Jasper-Johns-Upside-Down-Distress flag to the march today. I HOPE that the events of this week will encourage lots and lots of folks to make their disgust and outrage seem and heard. We need to make them realize that there are more of us than they realize. Grains of sand make beaches.

old Soviet joke for our times: Guy stops by the newsstand every day, scans the front page, doesn’t buy the paper. One day the vendor asks what he’s up to. Guy says: “looking for an obituary.” Vendor says “those are towards the back of the paper, comrade.” Guy says: “not the one I’m looking for.”
