narcissists are inherently empty, they need constant reinforcement of their power and prestige to fill that emptiness or they implode - trump is one of the most malignant narcissists I have ever seen (and I work in mental health)

pretty sure they do not believe Israel will stop bombing Lebanon (because they won't), so Iran is not at risk of having to following through with this

"The Kennedy Center made a $40 million profit in 2024. Then he demanded his name on the building, replaced the board and management with his lackeys and it's bankrupt," posted former Fox sports host Robert Lusetich on X. "The same things happen to everything he touches."

it's been a while since a new poem arrived, and this one took a couple of days to find itself #poetry #poem
W

the warped kitchen door did not fully close
W could feel night entering through the cracks

outside the door morning ground to a halt
bluebirds attacked strangers with angry talons

for forty nights the rain drowned the earth
one might almost remember the foghorns

W fell asleep in Williams Creek during the flood
W startled awake at the bottom of the ocean

the silence was as unfathomable as the depths
far in the distance W felt a child’s laughter

W washed ashore near Coos Bay Oregon
gills disappeared as he remembered breathing

at the end of remembering is another door
even now sweet smelling clouds seem ominous

My latest books cartoon for @theguardian.com
Hercule Poirot dressed all in black speaks to Captain Hastings in a grand hallway “Please ask the suspects to gather in the library, Hastings: I wish to reveal that our births are random, our lives meaningless, and our deaths absurd.”

Caption “Having investigated so many awful murders over the years, it was perhaps unsurprising that Hercule Poirot turned to Existentialism”


p.s. Poirot had presumably been reading a lot of Sartre recently…

 "It is meaningless that we live and it is meaningless that we die," Jean-Paul Sartre, Being and Nothingness (L'Être et le Néant)

“Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance.” Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea (La Nausée)

A truck driver working 40-hour weeks to make $50,000 a year pays about $3,800 in federal income tax. An 8% rate. An investor earning the same $50,000 in long-term capital gains pays $0. Work gets punished. Wealth gets rewarded. This tax code is a scam.
