Good morning. Coffee done and I’m having an inner debate with myself over having more coffee or switch to tea. First World problems.
Trump seems to be getting a clue about Putin. Trump’s a real slow learner.

Good morning. New bag of French dark roast coffee. This from Jewel Signature, their house brand. It’s good.
It’s relatively quiet in Washington. Too quiet. Trump is probably on the golf course. Still they are up to no good.

More and more extreme right wing stuff is invading my XTwitter timeline. It can’t be from my subscriptions or likes or retweets. I think: 1. the algo has been adjusted, 2. it’s all that’s left, the more reasoned voices I follow have left and there is nothing left.

Good morning. Coffee done. Starting a different brand tomorrow.
MAGA vs MAHA vs Trump vs DOGE vs GOP vs Cabinet Morlocks vs Big Business all crashing into each other like bumper cars in the Walmart parking lot. Popcorn time.

“Book” is spelled the same in the UK and US.
Everyone is babbling about Biden’s cognitive decline. Even if it was worse than we knew, Biden and his advisors still kept the ship off the rocks, the economy working, the US was respected and things generally working. No DOGE, no chaos, no fear, no protection rackets, no tariffs and no weirdos.

There does come a time when elderly lawmakers should stand aside and let a new generation take their place. The problem is elected Democrats all think they are indispensable.
My usual grocery stores have been out of #2 Melitta coffee filters. Early supply chain problems due to tariffs? I’ll eventually have to order from Amazon, although I’ve been trying to buy locally. It’s a tiny thing, I know, but the pandemic taught me to look for shortages early. Tsk.
Good morning. Coffee done, timelines being scrolled. Tea yet to come.
Happy Texturized Vegetable Protein (TVP) Day to all who are celebrating.

Trump and all his goons remind me of Morlocks from The Time Machine. Especially JD Vance.

Good morning. Stockpiling coffee against the Trump Tariff End Times.
3.5 more years of Trump ahead. He keeps digging himself deeper. Unfortunately he’ll drag us in with him.
On the directory side: 1 submission (yea!) and 1 website from the reserve bucket makes 2 total.
If some foreign country wanted to do a land swap with the USA, let’s just say Florida might be available to trade off.
Sorry, but I’m going to have to pass the tariff costs of these quips on to you the reader.
So ambushing foreign heads of state is becoming Standard Operating Procedure at the Trump White House. Every day we sink lower.
Let’s face it, half our domestic economic problems are based in the cost and payment of medical care. We keep dancing around the problem by trying to find ways for private companies, embedded throughout the process, to enrich themselves instead of facing the fact that the system is broken.
Words have power. Words can make every day of Trump’s time in office a nightmare.
Unleash the Nightmares!

Good morning. Coffee done and on black tea black now.
News is full of members of the Trump regime saying the completely wrong things. And while that is entertaining, mocking these idiots does no good except make us feel superior. Still, it’s cheaper than streaming.

So my current get rich scheme is combine a golf course with a cemetery.
I was thinking about starting a MAGA/Trump conspiracy blog, just documenting the conspiracy of the week. But I just doomscrolled down the Yahoo News headlines and it would be more like the MAGA/Trump conspiracy of the hour blog. There were so many it’s impossible to keep up.
I think they are all smoking wacky weed or eating magic mushrooms out there, and heck that’s just the Administration. I’m not sure what planet these people are on but it ain’t Earth.
