No, that's not it.
That makes sense, thanks.
Really? The original Alien?
Anyone else watching Ari Melber (MSNBC)? He said he walked out of a movie because it scared him so much, but I didn't catch which movie he was referring to.
Don't give me false hope!
Fortunately, I'll be working. But I can't watch him anyway without getting violently ill.
Beat me to it.
OMG, that's it!
Yes, but he'll "hereby" declare whatever the hell he wants and the GOP legislators don't have 1/10th of a cojone among them.
We're very lucky, because our once vibrant local paper died years ago due to corporate takeover/ greed, but about a year ago people stepped up and created a new, in-depth online local paper, and it's great. IMO nearly miraculous.
It's a shame that you're so snarky about community connections. There are real people at these events who connect, discuss, plan, develop ideas. It's about friends & neighbors showing up and caring about one another. It's not for naught and not futile. If you lack a sense of community, I'm sorry.
There are plenty of demonstrations going on nationwide on this #LaborDay, but damned if you'll see any on the front pages of the MSM websites. So, Fuck You, MSM--the people will be heard above your evasions and noise.
Well, that woulda killed me.
I remember that very well--again, we knew this long ago. Why didn't all this shit stop him. It speaks ill of the American electorate. And by the by, Fuck McTurtle who could have gotten rid of him, and really wanted to.
That being said, I'm out the door now to join a resistance group in my city to commemorate Labor Day and fight the tyrant. These occasions ought to continue, and they will!
It's Labor Day, so we know he's out playing golf, if he's not strapped to a gurney.
I have my moments... And there are others with creative ideas, which only proves that mass resistance and disobedience can be effective. It often has been.
YES! That's true, I remember now. People should constantly be reminded of this.
She was also coached, in one very obvious moment, when the jerk conducting the interview offered her the phrase, "mutual consent." It all stinks and has, of course, nothing to do with law or justice.
Republicans kill people, and wacko Republicans do it even faster.
If he could charge them for rent and food, he'd do that too, of course. Or I might have just put an idea into his greed-driven head.
I think Juvenile Delinquent Vance would agree with that.
Wouldn't it be cool if hundreds of people dipped their shoes into different colored chalk dust, then walked across various crosswalks in Flori-duh. They could also chant, "Snowflake DeSantis is afraid of rainbows!", or some such thing. I also like the ideas I've seen concerning lights and drones.
Here's the article referring to that bastard's endangering the life of his great nephew because of a money-based family feud. We knew all this before Schlump 101, but America's full of idiots and bigoted jackasses, I'm afraid. Thanks to That Cookie Lady for finding it.
Yes, thanks for posting.
Well, this is an American nightmare, thanks to you, you incompetent, traitorous, self-serving, greedy, ignorant, Orange Shithead Dotard.
Can't be him; it's not 2:45 a.m.
I mean, this is old news that came out before Schlump 101. So WTF is wrong with you, America.
Thanks for your reply!
I've seen that Gavin Newsom has already posted a spoof of it.
Gavin Newsom has already posted a spoof of it. Yup, he's "holding" a Q+, whatever the frick that is. (Like Q Anon?)
He also canceled medical insurance for his sick then-infant great nephew because of a family feud--over money, of course.
Has anyone else seen a batshit crazy meme supposedly posted by Schlump or one of his henchmen saying, "The World Will Soon Understand" with a weird drawing of him? It seems real; can anyone confirm?
You can't imagine how much you're helping me.
Well, yeah, we're aware of what he's attempting.
Oh, he'd twist things to say that he'd deserve it for this, too, trust me. He's just FUBAR.
Ooh, that's an interesting coincidence! And good for you for spotting it...GMTA!
That may be what they want, but that's not going to happen, so please stick to reality.
1. Trump can't fucking do that. 2. Whatever happened to states' rights, Republican assholes?
That's apparently the formula.
The reason that Ukraine remains endangered and the US is being held hostage by fascists and world's laughingstock, is that a sociopathic, self-serving, self-centered, self-pitying, hateful, petty POS who doesn't give a crap about his country remains at the head & still manipulated by a KGB officer.

Another Grandlund gem.
Well, now he hopes there's a really good chance of his boss kicking the bucket so that his little weasel phony self can continue leading the white working class to an even darker place. Dems, please play this during your campaigns!
While China is hosting a "New World Order" meeting, it hardly matters that Schlump is mad at his Daddy. Putin has obviously made both threats and promises for years. Donald's interest has always been himself, not the U.S.--his Achilles' heel, and Putin played him expertly. It's so freakin' OBVIOUS.
Demented Don pulling some shit in Venezuela because RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
You don't have to be luddite to be vehemently opposed to the manipulative destruction of "personal companion" AI.
I adore George for always nailing it. (Among other reasons.)

IMO it's not so much that they forgot, but that they wouldn't vote for a Black woman (let alone any woman).
A shit person does shit things because he lives to shit all over people and we're going to have to disinfect our shit-stained government as soon as possible.
He ain't gonna make it through this term.
Second that.
"And our great leader, Vladimir Putin, thanks the president, ever his Useful Idiot, for providing him with this valuable propaganda, and for being his reliably obedient stooge."
Brooks is too much in love with everything he writes, and it looks like he's running out of topics.
I always thought that Heidi Gardner was a hoot, and that Michael Longfellow was terribly underused on SNL. Every time I saw him, I wanted to see him do more. Perhaps that's why he's leaving. More important things in the world, but I've watched (mostly) since '75, so this seems a weird shake-up.
"Hey, Donald, look at us...twinsies!"
Time for some bloodletting, perhaps?
Does this guy even own a mirror? Or does Cheryl tell him every morning, "Oh, hon, you're looking just as handsome as ever"? Sweartagawd, it's like Dorian Gray's picture done climbed down from the attic, and went, "Ta-da! Here I am, sucker, the real you!"
DON'T! We need to keep up both the awareness and seriousness, plus the satire and ridicule. We need everything in our arsenal, and we can't roll over--Ukraine isn't!
And it's why he's so easy to satirize and ridicule. Let us not forget that both are very effective tools in the arsenal of fighting tyranny. But, yeah, Schlump is a legendary dictator in his own mind. What a paucity of imagination.
I'm more optimistic for the long run. Okay, maybe a cockeyed optimist, but nonetheless... Thing is, now Schlump is even pissing off private companies--capitalism! He's going so far afield that IMHO the bottom will fall out, to our benefit. Plus, maybe he'll be "taken care of" real soon. 🤞
The goals of the Insurrectionists were to overthrow our government and to assassinate Members of Congress and the Vice President. Never forget that.
Well, I remain more optimistic and determined.
RFK Jr. says he can look at children and basically diagnose them, that they don't look as they should. But did that crazed ignoramus ever take a look in the frikkin' mirror?
I respectfully disagree. IMO they're the same base being louder and more obnoxious. His poll numbers FWIW are sinking. More, not fewer, people are standing up to him--reg'lar folks & elected officials. More protests are planned. More South Park, take-down ridicule. Take heart!
But hopefully more people are savvy now and on to them. Besides, they keep on announcing their lunacy, making it pretty conspicuous. And Nancy (no hero) pushed the matter more to Ronnie. So now We the People have to be the gadflies.
Because Republicans want to drown us in snake oil and anti-science crap that's all a part of their nationwide killing spree.
Well, screw you, @nytimes.com for suddenly making the game Letter Boxed subscription only. Maybe if you hadn't been instrumental in getting Shitler elected, you wouldn't be so desperate for subscribers.
Dr. Daskalakis pulls no punches about what lunatic RFK Jr. is doing to the CDC. His letter in particular is not merely one of resignation--it's a DIRE WARNING of how the health and well-being of Americans are being seriously endangered by ignorant and crazed ideologues. Please pass this along!
Never thought it would happen, but I found a typo on p. 17.
Ken Burns, eat your heart out!
WTF is he talking about. He's about as demented as his boss.
Dear National Guardsmen (and women): Don't forget that Cadet Bone Spurs thinks of you as suckers and losers. Don't obey illegal orders. And let Americans and anyone within our borders know that you will not ever attack them.
Fuck Republicans and their guns. They are a death cult. They've shown in numerous ways that they're fine with killing children, by gunshot, by prohibiting abortion, by refusing to feed them, by being anti-vax. They kill children, they kill women, and they enjoy it.
No rules for billionaires. WTF else is new.
How much more fucked-up can this SC get? SC: Hold our beers. But not Kavanaugh's, he's not done with it.
Oh, we hear that pearl clutching, even way down here in Massachusetts.
Saw it during Shitler.1. Pass.
Oh, Rep. Raskin, you forgot "Thank you for your attention to this matter!"
But wouldn't all those crushed-up dolphins get in the way?
It's called the Arrogance of Ignorance, and this country is unfortunately rife with it.
Seriously. Someone ought to start digging at Ivana's grave. I'm serious.
Only PART of the point? In my view, it's the entire point.
What else can one expect of Cadet Bone Spurs, who calls military members suckers and losers, and who's using them as political pawns in his quest for absolute dictatorship.
Really great news! A harbinger of how we simply cannot give up and must keep working towards supporting our candidates!
Someone here astutely pointed out that neon vests on top of camo is something ya just can't make up.
I really hope that service members know/remember that tRump refers to them as "suckers and losers." And I hope they're holding him responsible for this unenviable situation.
And the Black Swan is a DEI hire.
WTF is "woke ballet." Sounds like yet another MAGA sycophant gets a job regardless of qualifications. So he thinks Trumpistas can dance?
Hey, whoever thought that Schmucko would be sophisticated enough to quote Nixon?
By the same token, ridicule and satire can be potent weapons against a tyrant.
Apropos of nothing in particular, he looks like something the cat dragged in.
I want his CD! 😃 I think it's called, Patriotic Songs for a Troubled Time.
I don't think nationalizing can help the markets much. Seems anti-capitalistic.
And what will those companies have to say about that? Will the CEO's go hooray (doubt it) or say go f*ck yourself (most likely)? DEMS TAKE NOTE: TRUMP IS ANTI-CAPITALISM!
No. I refuse to believe we won't win, no matter what kind of b.s. they pull. Don't discourage people from voting.
