So names of billionaires, important people and celebs are coming out in Epstein File releases. Watch as everyone does duck and cover drills, “Oh I was just there reading the water meter. My private jet had to land on Epstein Island because we ran out of Grey Poupon.”
Fair Warning: Interacting with people wearing smart glasses is going to freak me out. I’ll probably just walk away.
Seen and Heard: It’s been noted that Trump and JD Vance have done a lot to normalize grown men wearing makeup.
Unintended consequences I guess.
Good morning. Snow here. Bummer.
Headlines: Trump is trying to take authority over elections away from the States and into (his) Federal sweaty hands. This is not good.
Also, ICE is backing off threats to raid the Super Bowl, figuring it might look really bad and piss people off.
For decades Grand Juries have been sort of a meaningless rubber stamp because any skilled prosecutor could get them to bring in an indictment. But with Trump and his goons we are seeing the original intent of Grand Juries as they have refused to indict vindictive/capricious Trump prosecutions.
Finished reading: “Twelve Months” by Jim Butcher, a Dresden Files novel.
It was good although not great. It did what it needed to do to tie off plot threads left from previous books in the series.
I would really like the next Dresden Files book to come out in about a year. No pressure. :-)
Good morning. Today is Frozen Pizza Friday.
It’s 3 degrees F right now. Snow this afternoon, so I should get supplies this morning just in case.
Emperor Trump claims state of emergency over Cuba. Everything is either an emergency or national security with Trump.
Democrats to send delegation to see if Chuckie Schumer has a pulse.
Good morning.
Headlines say US naval armada heading for Iran. Also, Trump continues the slow abandonment of Ukraine. Lots of smaller US companies filing for bankruptcy, Tyrant Trump was supposed to help them but not really.
Epstein Files still AWOL. Same shit different day.
Headlines imply Russia and USA are in a death race as to who can destroy their countries economy first, Putin or Trump.
Good morning.
Trump’s belligerent marketing technique isn’t working. Don’t hire him to market your product or or try to convince somebody to sell you something that isn’t for sale. You can’t get what you want by threatening people all the time.
Also where are the Epstein Files?
Currently reading: “Twelve Months” by Jim Butcher, of the Dresden Files series.
Good morning. Light snow and the wind is blowing it around. Very cold. Good day to stay in and read a book.
Both Congress and the MSM have very short attention spans.
Where are those Epstein Files?
Good morning.
Alex Pretti was gunned down in the street and as one headline put it, “the shooter is still at large.”
Still no Epstein files. Imagine that.
ICE-types are keeping the phones of people they release. Sounds like theft to me. Take burner phones to demonstrations.
After today’s snow, we still remain stuck in a polar vortex like forever. I think it’s a conspiracy.
Good morning.
Someday Trump will be gone, the GOP will be out of power, the Democrats will go back to having a spine and caring about citizens and not just billionaires, law and justice will be reestablished.
As a fiction novel, nobody will be able to suspend that much disbelief.
The cavalry is not coming to the rescue, we’re going to have to clean up our own mess.
T-Mobile has always worked pretty well. I get a paper bill and pay by paper check. Now I get notice that they have arbitrarily opted me in to paperless billing. Told I can login and opt-out. When I login I’m already opted out, I think. I’ve wasted way to much time on this.
Most of my education came from Bugs Bunny cartoons, the Three Stooges and Star Trek (TOS).
In Pizza We Trust.
Music medias: I’ve owned 45’s, LP’s. 8-Track, Cassettes, CD’s, Digital and I still find owning the music on CD’s the best.
(My parents had 78’s but I don’t count them.)
Good morning.
PSA: Don’t Trust Trump or his goons. Don’t trust Putin. Don’t trust US tech corporations. Don’t trust billionaires.
Trust no one.
Trump, via social media, has withdrawn the invite for Canada to be on Trump’s Really Biggie Gaza Peace and Looting Council.
I’m sure Canada is doing a Happy Dance right now.
