I had to verify that my mind wasn’t playing tricks. Wavy in the middle, but justified on both sides.

I point this out from time to time. She’s not just Obama‘s wife.

I’m sure they were warned. Your religion isn’t the only one, and who’s to say what constitutes a religion?

Well, good for Canada! I hope the USA can we worthy of friendship again someday. In the meantime, we have an underbelly problem.

For me, this race will be over soon after my already-issued ballot arrives In the mail.

Dammit Apple! If I haven’t put a period on a string of words, I DON’T want you to capitalize the next word just because you think I should. *I* want to decide! Work on spellcheck, dammit!

Ok, glad to know I wasn’t the only person who thought this was creepy and weird.

Hazing always gets worse over time until it has to be pulled back.

And her votes against Trump-agenda items were likely “safe” votes taken so she could paint herself as independent.

And no, they didn't charge our farmers tariffs.

Yeah, see, a huge crowd of people were pushing their way in and got stuck in the door, like a crowd leaving a burning building.

Oh, yeah, I guess we forgot that. Everybody calls it “his” super PAC.

And they thought he could just bring back the pre-pandemic economy because he had obviously “figured out” how to have low prices and low inflation.

Oh, they’ll become rational and reconsider that immunity thing once a Democrat is in office. Can’t have presidents running amok, you know. I mean, the nuclear codes! <gasp>

Nah, go for Mar-a-Lardo, Iran. Smaller target.

Similar thoughts about Trump, but I really hope he has to suffer alive while he's totally discredited, prosecuted, and convicted, and his name and his monuments come down. And I kinda wish he'd have a stroke and be unable to talk. 😜

I remember the first time I saw him, a looong time ago, on a B&W TV with that phone number prominently splayed across the screen. I think I said aloud, "What a crook!" Tele-preachers had a bad name at the time anyway, but Bakker just looked like a crook.

Nope, had to stop and chuckle over that big grin! 🩷

Right, Timmy from Baltimore (AKA Amos) dubs people with clever nicknames (e.g., Clarissa AKA Melba AKA Peaches), but with good reason he really dislikes Murtry (AKA Morty).

I laughed out loud at that headline.

Also, absentee ballots already approved will be issued today (so claimed on the MyVoter absentee ballot portal).

It’s not really a rule, but an excuse. In a virtual 51/49% House, it means that ~26% of the House can block a bill from further consideration.

He created the Hastert Rule, by which House bills must be favored by a majority of the majority if they are to ever be voted on by the full House. So you can have a bipartisan bill with enough votes to pass, but it won’t be voted on. I’ve always called it the Pedophile Rule.

Teachable moment: “Takeover“ is a noun, not a verb. Further, “takeover” and “take over” are pronounced differently. Say them out loud in context and you’ll see. They’re not the same, but autocorrect doesn’t catch it.

Took me a few secs to realize that was a costume. Too accurate! She’s a surgifreak.

Even his expected version of the “facts” wouldn’t have given him reason to call Jack Smith a “dirtbag.” That was totally uncalled for, as was gleefully accusing him of having already perjured himself.

Trump spins this same yarn about gender surgery at schools. Others make it sound like the surgery is done without giving it much thought. People who believe that crap are really pathetic. What kind of frightening world do they live in?

And Holden was Morty-fied. Amos was one complex character.

I have at least one wooden-handle hammer that was my grandfather’s (I’m over 70), and a stoker shovel that was used to shovel coal for a steam engine boiler over 100 years ago. Some wrenches of unknown age, but probably 100+yo, too. All twice inherited.

Yeah, and we remember bad times and good times, but never an administration this blatantly criminal nor a president this stupid and self-centered. I thought W‘s admin was the worst we’d ever see.

I donno, this crew may be there to be entertained by his rambling. Who would expect anything else from him at this point? It‘s his schtick.

Years ago I worked for a guy who said that his greatest regret in life was not being Willie Nelson.

Seems true. He thinks the trade deficit is losing money, which seems consistent with a weird zero-sum view, where money leaving the country is money lost unless it comes back. We have to keep our money! It seems like him, never wanting to pay for anything.

Yesterday’s Coffee @powerclyde.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

But just like every other group of people in the world, seniors are not monolithic (so we should retire that expression), and many still have working brains and know better that what this admin is feeding us.

The meme: It depends, really. In the northeastern markets, solar and wind energy doesn’t *cost* more to produce, but you may pay more for it when oil and gas prices increase, gas especially. The solar and wind owners may also reap higher profits, depending on how their contracts work.

And then the best they can get for all that is Ken Paxton!

The states are going to have to do it. They’ll all get pardons for federal crimes, and some might even get state pardons. People can still sue, though, regardless of pardons.

Yeah, this just seems cruel. I’d rather those people be comfortable, and they’ll be more friendly that way, too. I don’t see the point.

Lemme guess… ‘Cause it’s all “just political.” We’re gonna hear this so often over the next few years. All the investigations are going to be “just political,” they’ll say, giving themselves reason to dismiss them. It’s going to be ugly.
