His acolytes are so predictable, they’re either mobbed up, pin-striped “guys” or pornified pnuematic blondes, even the brunettes have “caramel highlights”, with nary a wrinkle in sight.

Watching the news hour tonight talking about Russia’s push into the arctic, and the penny dropped re Trump’s seemingly random lusting for Greenland. Man we’re in trouble.

I find myself saying, “oh fuck all the way off” far too much these days.

It’s so on point Repubs care about the “unborn” but are willing to rip life saving aid from the world.

I expect this BS from the bloviating orange man, but what the heck happened to JD Vance? Does he know most of the MAGA supporters would be more than happy to deport his wife and children?

I can’t stop thinking of a famous diplomatic quote, “if you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu”.

Listening to two people’s stories of being fired, one days from the probationary time ending, reminds me not just how stupid this regime was, but how cruel it’s always been.

Anyone else worried past “anti regime” posts might lead to a knock at your door?

Oh Jared’s been salivating over the Gaza Strip for development for a few years, but please let’s talk about who would want to live there? Displacing people who have lived there for generations? I don’t recognize this world.

Instead of barking at the moon, “Dems do something!” I suggest you call the nearest local republican representative and give them hell.

I know and love transgender people. Why the hate? Why the punishment? Today was a very bad day in our country, and watching Stephen Miller’s smug lying face made it worse. The outrage just builds.

Boy it’s tough to dodge “the supreme leader’s coronation”, but I’m trying, I’m really trying. Old Graham Norton shows? Beat Bobby Flay? Great British Baking Show? And when all else fails, there’s always SVU reruns, or as my Aunt used to call them, “those murder shows”.

I had to turn off the “pre inauguration” speech, culminating with the Village People. I wanna new drug.

Anybody else hear the commercial narrated by Mike Huckabee shilling the “children’s guide to President Trump?” How they can learn about how he will “make America great again”? It comes with illustrations and a brown shirt.

I hit a wall today. Maybe it was the release of Jack Smith’s report, nada, or the supposed vetting of the serial sexual abuser Hegseth, where Repubs just wah wah wah, it was made up? We are in a new time.

Watching the events unfolding, I don’t think our democracy will hold. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think I am.

I’m now, at my ripe old age understanding why the right hated Jimmy Carter. How did that narrative take hold? Follow the money, always.

I’m telling you and not just because my husband has dual citizenship, Brexit was the biggest mistake ever.

Just got back from Savannah, yes, beautiful, but haunted. I grew up in the south, and when I return, there’s an uncomfortableness. I can’t shake it.

And I’m sure I’m last to the realization that IG, FB, X, is nothing more than a tool to sell us stuff.

OK, first, “Official Elon Musk” started following me, now “Maye Musk” is piling on. Am I being trolled? Or is this an attempt to monitor? I mean….what the what?
