The Narcissist in Winter

He’s irredeemably, mind-numbingly boring. An ignorant fat old man who still thinks trolling twitter’s a thing.

Trouble is, a lot of people have made a lot of money off the trolling. A lot. I mean a lot. Not just Fox but all the TVs, the newspapers and magazines. I’m not blaming them but they sure are part of the spectacle and it’s why I don’t watch any of it. If I want to pick up dog shit I just go outside. I think everybody knows what they think of him. I read some damn place that this year’s undecideds amount to 6% of the electorate. In the year of our Lord 2016 they were 20%. The only thing we have to fear, it seems to me, is voter purges, shutting down of polling places, throwing away ballots, and changing results, you know – the usual.

As an immigrant who can still be puzzled by your funny Yankee ways, I might be a tad over optimistic. And I confess, I did think for a while of pricing properties in the Olde Country but it’s not much better there. Just the level of smug is higher, almost reaches Canadian or New Zealand-like proportions. Plus HM’s government’s been overtaken by a bunch of rabid old-Etonian Nigels sitting in the saloon bars of newly re-opened Hampstead pubs quaffing warm beer and hooting at each other. Say what you will, I’m not yet ready to give up on the country that gave us jazz and the musical theater.

I don’t know what that thing in the picture is and I’m content to leave it that way.

@Benedick: Google says it’s a Cheeto. I’m trusting them on it.

@nojo: Well it’s very disturbing. It could look like other things.

@Benedick:

“If I want to pick up dog shit I just go outside.”

I may be stealing that. Virtual hugs to you & the pugs.

This cannot pass unnoticed or unpunished. If we let this go, we deserve our fate.

@Benedick: Hey, great to hear from you. We’ve missed you!

Hope you’re doing well. (hugs)

Tax returns? Tax Returns.

Is anyone else breathing a sigh of relief that this Supreme Court term has almost concluded?

It looks like they’ve made a very public break with Prezinazi AntiChrist, and hey LGBTQIA anti-discrimination laws nationwide; in any other time, this would be national news for months as the New York Times goes on the Cletus Safari Road Show to publish what every dipshit in a diner thinks about human rights.

It’s like we’ve just avoided an asteroid strike, since it coulda been an historic debacle.

So, yay?

And we kinda won,
So we’ll sound our victory cheer…
Where do we go from here?”

@¡Andrew!: Not like the relief I’ll sigh if all nine survive until January 20.

I swear to fucking God the only way I know what day of the week it is, is the Trump Administration always engages in total fuckery on Fridays.

I’m sure Susan Collins is very concerned about Drumpf commuting Roger Stone’s sentence. As a public defender friend of mine said, “I had a 14 year old spend more time locked up for stealing a candy bar from a bodega than that asshole spent in jail.”

@SanFranLefty:
As much as I would enjoy seeing that motherfucker go to jail, the fact that he cried hysterically like the cowardly slimy ratfucking brat he is and pull every favor he could to get a get out of jail free makes it still somewhat satisfying.

The reckoning will happen to Roger. Trump’s just delayed it.

Trumpidiot is finally wearing a goddamned mask.
