...and marrying Nicole Kidman.
I wrote this for my die-hard Republican friends and family members prior to the 2024 election. It's all about how Trump is the polar opposite of everything conservatives claim to believe.
That's the thing... he doesn't WANT to go through Congress. Because this isn't actually about the tariffs. It's about wielding unchecked, unquestioned, absolute power.
But is she concerned?
Nothing has ever been more perfectly stated than this. It should be his eulogy. 10/10. No notes.
Here's a look at my current vinyl collection. #VinylSky
Oh no. Not Fox News. Whatever shall I do.
You know what city in the U.S. has the highest murder rate? Birmingham, Alabama. The highest rate of rape? Anchorage, Alaska. What about overall violent crime? Memphis, Tennessee. But you won't hear Trump threatening to send the military into those cities, because they're in deep red states.
Trump has never, in his entire life, been a "perfect gentleman." Anyone who's listened to him for, like, 30 seconds knows this.
He's rotting from the inside out. All that evil finally caught up to him.
Premise 1 - People deserve equality, dignity, and respect. Premise 2 - LGBTQ people exist. Conclusion - LGBTQ people deserve equality, dignity, and respect.
...and the replacement song will be "Build Me Up Buttercup" by the Foundations.
I'm honestly not sure why ANYONE gives a fuck about the Cracker Barrel logo discussion.
HELL YEAH!!!
James Dobson advocated the patriarchal oppression of women, parents beating their children, and "conversion" therapy for LGBT people. He also breathlessly supported Donald Trump and claimed school shootings were God's judgment for abortion and gay marriage. I will not mourn his passing.
Holy crap, is he that weird flapping bird guy?
The BBC has an article that asks “Are Museums Too Woke” and I’m not clicking on that shit but the answer should be, “If you think ‘Yes’ there is a 99% likelihood that you are a bitch”
You know that part in the Old Testament where these bad people rebel against God, so He just opens up a crack in the earth and they all get swallowed up and consumed by fire? Something like that would be nice.
Maher is nothing but a malcontent. He doesn't have any real principles, he just shits on whoever is in power or whatever happens to be the popular narrative. He pretends that he's being nonpartisan, but just a non "dude-bro" version of Joe Rogan.
...and it immediately won 19 Grammy awards, despite the fact that it hasn't been released or even completed yet.
My former BIL was like that. His entire family was from rural East Texas (Crockett, Latexo), and they were all afraid to drive on freeways. So when he and my sister got married, my mom had to give them directions to the venue (southwest of Houston) using only smaller back roads.
They’re rewriting history.
First they came for the immigrants And I did not speak out Because I was not a immigrant...
I want to see Elijah Wood and Daniel Radcliffe in a self-referential buddy comedy, similar to Nic Cage playing himself in "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent." Make it happen, Hollywood!
"Owning the libs" by letting people die of preventable illnesses.
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." - H.L. Mencken (1920)
Yes, I wrote another blog post about #TheBeachBoys. Deal with it.
...a thrice-indicted attorney general who supports a twice-impeached convicted felon and insurrectionist.
Except the jobs numbers he's referencing were announced in August 2024 (not November), three months before the election.
Here's a thing I wrote about an album I really wanted to like.
My thoughts on the Pete Buttigieg story...
I think a lot of people didn't even read what Pete actually said. He began by expressing the need for compassion and empathy for trans people (especially kids), but also stated that there are important conversations to be had about "fairness issues" in sports. That's not hateful or "transphobic."
I eagerly await the day when I will never have to hear that man speak a single word ever again. I won't have to see his hideous orange face on TV every day. I won't have to watch him waddle around his stupid golf courses. I won't have to be baffled by his utter incompetence. Come, Lord Jesus.
Why did he put "husband" in quotation marks? Does he think Nancy Pelosi isn't actually married?
The truth here is so ever relevant, is so simple and profound. I think I might pop it into my next book. Sharing yet again:
In 14th century France, a disgraced knight protects a mysterious young girl on the road to Avignon, with the raging Black Death as a backdrop for a literal war between Heaven and Hell. Don't expect a coherent theological viewpoint, but it's a thrilling and satisfying read. #BookSky
He is totally out of his mind.
Our church has a community garden, and we partner with a local food pantry to tend and harvest the veggies.
I mean... who's left at this point? Is it just Fox and Newsmax?
When we moved my grandma out of her house a couple of years ago, I found (and kept) a copy of this record.
Then why did they all just vote against it a few days ago?
Duh.
How does he have standing to sue in the first place? Neither he nor the state of Texas faced any harm whatsoever. It doesn't make sense.
“What seemed to draw them together, according to those who knew them at the time, was a common interest in hitting on — and competing for — attractive young women at parties, nightclubs and other private events.” www.nytimes.com/2025/07/19/u...
In Greek mythology, Chiron was not only half man and half horse, he was also skilled in medicine. That made him the Centaur for Disease Control.
Nah, that's the Trump AI chatbot.
Just when I think Elon Musk can't be more of a cringeworthy edgelord weirdo with no friends, he does something like this...
Trump is a massive pile of shit, but Mike Johnson (and those like him) might be even worse. Because Johnson looks and sounds like a normal religious Republican, but he helps layer a false veneer of godliness over a man and a movement that is blatantly antithetical to every word that Jesus preached.
Days since being an international embarrassment: Zero.
You mean he somehow became an even bigger pile of shit than he already was? Yeah, we know.
Seems like a good time to share this again...
Schrödinger's Files. 🤣🤣🤣
Actually, the primary driver of healthcare costs in America is the unrestrained profit motive of insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies.
Yes, I already wrote a review of the new #Superman movie. Enjoy!
If you watch Les Misérables and think Inspector Javert is the hero, you might be a Trump supporter.
We are living in the stupidest timeline.
Today I choose to celebrate the United States of America for what it's meant to be, if not for what it is. Let the Fourth of July be a reminder that liberty, democracy, justice, and equality under the law are still worth fighting for. #NoKings
It's science.
It smells like Big Macs, adult diapers, and fascism.
Let's go student loan forgiveness!
This is hilarious.
😂😂😂😂😂
Woo hoo!!! It came!!!
My vinyl collection, so far...
Wow
The orange convicted felon is a buffoon and all world leaders and dictators know this especially as he conducts his trashy version of diplomacy on social media. We could’ve had the intelligent highly qualified black woman and instead we got a vindictive bullish petty crook.
Trump (in 2024): "If Kamala Harris becomes president, I guarantee she would get us into World War III." Trump (in 2025): "I have chosen to ignore the intelligence community and my own national security advisor and have bombed Iran without provocation or congressional approval."
Here's my latest blog post about the new #OKGo album.
He doesn't get to just "decide." Going to war requires an act of Congress, not that Trump gives a shit about the law.
Yep, just saw that in the airport this past weekend. Without even thinking I said, "F*** off, Kristi Noem."
Howdy, folks! Here's my latest blog post. #LoveAndMercy
At the risk of being accused of shameless self-promotion, I'd like to recommend my second novel, DAYLIGHT. It's sort of a supernatural sci-fi love story about heartbreak, loss, isolation, sacrifice, and facing the darkness within ourselves. www.amazon.com/Daylight-Jos...
MetamorphoHo Hank!
I can't STAND all the "dude-bro" pop country that's basically just redneck Mad Libs about beer, jacked up trucks, and 'Murica. None of it is remotely honest. Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash... they wrote honest lyrics about real shit.
Also he'd be 73 by the time he took office. No more geezers.
Anyone who knows me also knows that I'm not exactly the most handy "alpha" sort of guy when it comes to fixing things. However, today I successfully replaced the fill valves and flappers in both of our toilets, and now they're working properly again. I'll hold for applause.
5) They could be there just to be supportive, even if it doesn't effect their lives personally.
‘They say, We leave you our deaths. Give them their meaning.’ —Archibald MacLeish Remembering the fallen this Memorial Day, we can consider our own duty to strive so that our lives and our country are worthy of the price they paid.
That's the point. That's what Republicans want. The goal is to make life so miserable for single mothers that they're forced to stay in toxic and/or abusive relationships, thereby remaining under the control of men (which they believe is the natural order).
Well, well, well... if it isn't the consequences of Trump's actions.
It's pretty ironic that Trump keeps on whining about courts ruling that immigrants must be afforded due process, since the abuse of due process by Trump and his crooked attorneys is the only reason why he's not rotting in federal prison right now.
Demolition Man deep cuts!
Imagine not wanting the government to infringe on your freedoms as a Christian while simultaneously working to have the government infringe on the freedoms of others in the name of Christianity and refusing to see this as a contradiction.
Just last night, my mother-in-law was going on and on about how she loves her Medicare, but she thinks AOC is stupid and wrong for wanting "Medicare for all." Why? Because she thinks young, poor people shouldn't get the same benefits that she spent decades working and waiting for.
Good morning to everyone except those who are part of the fake, very not real agency DOGE named after a memecoin because the govt is run by dorks
Also, Grover Cleveland didn't get to keep the Statue of Liberty for "personal use" after he left office.
When I need rescue, you are my ransom When I need shelter, you are my home When I am weak Lord, you're what I reach for Lord I believe, whatever I need, Jesus You are
Aaaand there it is.
He gets them from crappy reality TV shows as well!
"The holy Synod places under anathema all and singular those persons, of what quality or condition soever they may be, whether clerics or laymen, Seculars or Regulars, or with whatsoever dignity invested, who shall, in any way whatever, declare that Orlando Palmiero was out." - Council of Trent
Stephen Miller is easily the most disturbingly evil person in the Trump administration, and that's really saying something. Aside from being a blatant white nationalist, he also looks like he could have played Count Orlok in #Nosferatu, no makeup required.
