back wheyI was a kid in the 1970s, All In The Family was huge. And I could never understand Mike Stivic’s hatred of Richard Nixon. Donald Trump today. Yes, now I understand. All too well.
Three words describe me: Not. Too. Tall.

Even in parody, I can’t stand the sight of that sorry fuck.
Outlawing mother’s little helpers and Valium mighta been OK back in the day, but that was the day before moms on social media. If they only knew now what our moms knew then.
And if RFK Jr said antidepressants cause autism, I’d say “Fuck you. bring it on.”
I’m awaiting the Thanksgiving holiday so I can properly thank whoever chemist invented clinical antidepressants. Fln godsend. You and Jonas Salk.
Ah, question is: Thinking positively or thinking positively to cover something? Theres like 10 others just like this.. Lets talk
WAIT, WTF the Arby’s TV commercial’s big dude no longer says “We have … the meat.” And you can tell Arby’s just chopped it out. Their RB sandwiches were always way overpriced, but now they can fuck off for good.
sorry to say (or maybe not) - but on 2nd thought maybe not - that pic looks like a woman’s hoo-hah. Look before you leap maybe?
Sorry to say, but that dont look like actual bacon
Alcoholics totally are behind you
DNA result readouts don’t count.
Say again in English, PK?
Nice. But robins are insane and even the bluejays know it 😊
Here’s how I’d define social media today: Imagine you’re standing in front of a door with a big-ass party going on behind it. You can either open the door and wade into the flood or you can talk to a few reasonable ppl there.
And quite frankly, Im not buying it.
what makes me so interesting that you want to get to know me?
Totally FKN awesome sentiment
i am, but I don’t go there anymore
Perhaps. Where would you suggest a start?
doing fine. But really, theres better questions you can ask the marks.
Unless we were face to face, there’s nowhere we can talk v
The one thing missing is the line of police opening fire on the strikers and their families.
Why our sorry asses don’t have to go to work today. Because ordinary worker ppl died for you. This happened in my literal backyard. And my dad and grandpa were union. And so am I. And this is why: Chicago 1937 www.bing.com/videos/river...
Damn. A zillion of us healthy alive ppl are still trying to break 100.
And heres why they deserve saluting. Because they shed blood on the prairie for us today. This clip is from the Memorial Day strike at Republic Steel in my Chicago backyard. www.bing.com/videos/river...
nowhere today. I work later on.
Why we have Labor Day today. Republic Steel, 1937?- before there was an 8-hour workday, when ppl worked 7 days a week without workplace protections. . I kid you not, kids. That’s the way it was. www.bing.com/videos/river...
Amount of fur, for one
i know what a DM is Um, again— why?
But that might be way problematic for you. If you actually are in your 20s, no way you could pass scammer in your 40s/50s. We can spot you a mile away if you don’t know what a channel clicker and rabbit ears are.
Sorry if I’m being helpful to the online criminal element, but if you want to get anywhere with retired dudes in their 60s who you thinks has money, don’t pass yerself off as some hottie barely legal. Go middle-aged soccer mom instead.
Um, ok. But I’be heard that one before. A few times.
Why?
Hey back.
Moment of levity: How many existentialists does it take to change a light bulb? A: Ommmmmm
Moment of levity: Q: How many Germans does it take to change a light bulb? A: One. We’re not funny, but we’re efficient.
Al sold out Madison Square Garden this year in some ridiculously short amount of time, too.
Something to keep in mind if you’re working on a business and question whether it’s actually a good idea: Weird Al Yankovic has earned $8 million from touring this year. But then again, there’s all those funny films of ppl in contraptions trying to fly. Still, just run with it.
Most ppl think Dr Hook was a 2-hit wonder with that song (the the cover of the rolling stone” song being the other). But their discography and radio hits is quite deep.
>> I take comfort because we can’t fight it if people don’t even know reality.<< That’s OK. “We” can do without ig’nint Jethros.
That’s the important thing: Whether that fear motivates US or cows us into submission. Case in point: The fearsome WW2 Nazis steamrolled into France. Yet the French Resistance/Underground existed in spite of them. Even Nicolae Ceaușescu was overcome, more recently. Use fear goodly.
The bastardo still cheats at golf, too.
Hell, we’re still outraged over still no tax returns from Dear Leader. Which is a good thing. Protest and change can’t happen without outrage, even if it has to simmer a good while.
Moment of levity: Q: What did one German say to the other at the hardware store? A: Fuck if I know. I don’t speak German.
The EMTs sending Rudy straight off to the funeral home because “Seriously, we thought the dude was dead already.”
>> But I also am devastated at the same time. And TERRIFIED.<< Aaaaand that’s the thing. That’s how they want you to feel. Fear is their motivator.
Moment of levity: Q: How many Boomers does it take to change a light bulb? A: None. We’d rather sit there in the dark and talk about how much better the old bulb was.
Or maybe it was just an exercise to see if evil truly is immortal.
Dracula disagrees.
And she’s still a looker.
There is no deal breaker when you believe others are subhuman.
Personally, I take no comfort in the same knowledge. Compounding that is knowing this is like a speeding runaway train and not knowing how to bring the mofo under control. I’m no Denzel. Sigh … Still, Im not ready to concede to living in Stalin’s Russia.
Ever been to an old folks home or a retirement community? The manboobs alone would make you mistake it for a trans encampment.
Actually, the aroma of a burning joint carries reallyreally far, so its not surprising even in that instance.
In very short time, American shoppers will realize this at the grocery store. And the damage ICE and the president is doing. “it occurs to me that the way you hurt rich people is by turning them into poor people.” - Billy Ray Valentine

Good night 🌙 and….
Dog’s thinking “Bacon … bacon … I smell BACON!!!”
You speak as if this development surprises you.
Well ok, so maybe police sketch artists should be leaning on AI given the crap they churn out on wanted posters.
God sure had it in for that fish.
Heritage Foundation is perhaps the biggest and worst offender out of the list.
Simple answer to that: if you were someone like that, you wouldn’t be out there interviewing for a normal job. No, you’d be hunkered down writing and exiting your 300-page manifesto.
The thing ive always said abt job interviews is: YOU are the one with the power, not the person on the other side of the desk. That if you consider the interview a conversation rather than a performance, you will likely see a better outcome.
And I’d never ask any same-ass dumb-ass reporter question. And if i did, she can totally stab me in my face.
Great strategies are built on great plans.
Sorry everyone, but this long weekend, I’d love to snag a half-hour as a professional journalist with Lee Ann Rimes. Because bite us, Taylor Swift. And LeeAnn kinda *was* the media’s Taylor Swift in 1992-93. My journalist-guy guy would love to talk to her on that, just ordinal regular folks.
As a matter of fact, if anyone knows her or her management company, pls msg me, OK?
Back in the day when that video came out (in conjunction with a Jesus TV movie), Lee Ann was pretty much the Taylor Swift of that time. And then bzzzzt she was gone (even tho she’s still here). As a journalist, I’d love to get her take on things.
And sometimes they were Country Music video blatant. Which we didn’t mind back then, early’90s when we were really young. Hubba hubba www.youtube.com/watch?v=AA_5...
Country music videos were far more subtle-sexier early ‘90s. They need to recapture subtlety today as opposed to brotunes. Far more slow-burn sexier. And Tricia Yearwood was totally not video sexy then. But she actually was 😊 www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUFa...
And if you’re in love these days, this is the best Sedaka: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzd1...
I’m no longer a teenager in love. But this song still digs into me chest.
I was a teenager in love when this song was all over radio. Today, listen to it with the one you love - or the one who loves you. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtIi...
OMG - awesome understated humor.
Or when they don’t. Look up Operation Barbarossa”
Great strategy before the plsn didn’t work, or the strategy afterward? Just wondering
Ao seriously, what’s your basic problem. Basically?
OMG you adding a George Conway post is why I followed back.
My daughter’s return vmail msg: “I’m skydiving. I’ll call you tonite.” As a dad, I done pretty OK.
Like this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SdI... www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SdI...
I haven’t watched SNL is forever, but I wonder how a Phil Hartman character (maybe as Sinatra) would host a couch roundtable with himself, Trump, Putin and Zalenskyy.
See, here’s the thing abt ppl not reading books basically anymore: Erik Larson’s ‘In The Garden of Beasts.’ it’s EXACTLY what’s happening today in the USA, and like the ordinary everyday Germans in 1939, we seem to be all good with it. Just wait.
Given the president’s cabinet meeting this week, I betcha Bill Clinton was sitting there thinking, “Yknow, not too long ago all you needed was a decent cigar to get a blowjob, not the destruction of the entire US government.”
Listening to RFK Jr. and his voice, you gotta wonder whether actual RFK is sitting there in the afterlife thinking, “Fuck. If only I got shot in the throat instead.”
Sorry, but ya gotta wonder after Katrina, how many parents signed their kids up for swimming lessons.
I kid you not: My son & daughter are named Hannah and Ian (bad hurricane season business in 2022) On the 20th anniversary of Katrina, I feel I’ve failed as a parent because I always raised my kids to be better than the rest.
In the spirit of our nation’s Republicans and DOGE, I will no longer be refilling the peanuts in my backyard bird feeder often because the last thing this country needs is welfare bluejays and titmouses. Let them eat skinny bugs. Nationalbird Guard crows and grackles will be enforcing the edict.
Tomorrow, play “When I Was A Kid.” Make a weekend of awesome games.
Better words hardly spoken.
Yay William Wallace and those who followed.
It’s now 20 years to the day of Hurricane Katrina. And 20 years that any female named Katrina wishes her parents picked a different name.
You betcha. I was gonna do that later. I liked your presentation b
Seeing that neither of these made sense, I call bullshit
No, you don’t. It just depends who you’re with.
Daaamn. For a second there i thought that was a massive-arse iceberg bearing down on that little island.
And then maybe you should tell him about Republicans., and that’s why.
Oh man. Really? Ace Hardware always been good to me.
Um, okayyyy. Nobody here is gonna write congressmen. Or march in the street to hold them accountable. Yknow whats gonna work? Read up on the WW2 French Resistance.
