Geez, even Melania’s bleeding trees were better than this schlock. Rococo would cringe at the excess.

Gonna be hard for Giuliani to keep from diddling himself in front of trump.

Yes I saw that. Sold out on TEMU! So this Thanksgiving, as you visit your MAGA relatives get ready to see their replicas of Trump’s favorite decor- Nouveau Tacky.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
Good lord, the Whitehouse interior is ugly. The swirly wallpaper and the applied gold ticky tacky. The place needs stripping down and cleaning. Disinfectant. And lots of sage.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social)
Watching The Wizard of Oz and certainly trump is well represented by the wizard. Charismatic, but governing with powers produced by false narratives, deception and manipulation. Without tge curtain, just a man. The green dollar replaced by crypto?

You’d think that after these months of what we’ve seen from RFK, Jr. that functioning brains would rethink that. I’ve heard that some parents of school age children are thrilled with schools cancelling vaccine requirements. Let’s revisit what happened in the early months of Covid.

Today I saw a car with a Kennedy 2024 bumper sticker and decided that brain worms might be contagious.

Touch and smell are heightened senses. They also rely on a leash to stay in proximity. I had a foster who was deaf and near blind. I was careful to manage her environment so there were no changes in her travel patterns. She woke up every morning to find the cat, and was overjoyed every time.

Sounds like he has more charges against him than the folks trump is deporting. Let him serve his time, maybe in Uganda.

Standing on a bridge for the Labor Day rally I observed so many people, older like me doing what we did in the 1960s. Many more elders than youngers but we got attention from younger passers by. Maybe they are listening, seeing, learning. Strange twist from the 60s.

What a wonder. Let’s get him a home. Get ready for some amazing heightened senses and intelligence. I fostered a blind dog. Coco is smartest animal I’ve ever known. He is now a service dog to a woman with severe arthritis. He wears a brace and carries a pack.

Once he tried to teach me to use a slide rule. Oy. Lacking calculator till I was in college I preferred to eat up paper with my ciphering.

I’ll think on it some more because it sounds like something that at least should be written. My dad could say, but he is gone. I caught some of his interest, but whereas he liked the more technical of the sci fi genre, I enjoy the social/dystopian literature. He was an engineer, so it makes sense.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
I deleted it. My dad was a sci fi guy and I thought he had a book title like that. Maybe not.

We’re going to find out that Trump is even more petty and mean than we’ve already seen, and can possibly imagine. His driving forces are of the most superficial sort.

His organ harvesting scheme is a skip and jump away from eugenics. I’m sure he’s thought about it.

Trump and the Whitehouse have been lying about his health for 10 years now. Las Vegas odds have it that he’s out of here about mid 2026. Trump, Miller and project 2025 are balls to the wall till then. At least. We won’t recognize our country, nor will anyone else.

Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
Thank you! He’s still a work in progress. This morning we walked up to a horse pasture, a place he usually loves but does not trust the horses. He decided to just pass and walked himself home.

Brain worm, heroin addiction and mercury poisoning ate away the part that keeps him from thinking and saying stupid shit. He is truly the weakest link. And that’s saying a lot coming from a Trump administration that’s full of ‘em.

Republicans think they’re immune, and so surprised when this administration’s policies and actions are applied to them. I’m not counting on republicans to be concerned beyond clutching their pearls. Trump is amassing military force. It’s going to take more than just the democrats to fight it.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
Out of stock. Either trump bought them all, or you’re going to see a lot of these over thanksgiving dinner at your MAGA relative’s homes. Lord, what a cultural wasteland.

I bought into a fund for one of my children on the advice of a trusted financial advisor. It made a very nice return and he urged me to sell when he saw some troubling signs in the bubble. I’d have never ventured this without someone I trusted. Crypto would keep me up at night.

That’s pretty much my assessment as well. I don’t play.

Additionally, the mania over crypto feels familiar.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
I did and do recognize the value in those stocks, proven over time. At that time, 1990 it was insane.
Ty McBrayer (@tymcbray.bsky.social) reply parent
Anyone old enough to remember the internet bubble. Stocks rose dramatically, defying understanding of the data. eBay, Yahoo, Amazon. There was value in those and some of the other stocks, just not at those inflated prices. I still don’t understand crypto, but learned the lesson of the dot com boom.

Trump wants control of all agencies so he can control economics and economic policy. And he will crash the economy without a doubt. Not just the U.S. economy. The Fed needs independence. We need an independent Fed. Trump is trying any way he can to run the Fed.
