While most Beltway Democrats wander around in confused circles, Drawing huge crowds, Bernie Sanders steps into leadership of the anti-Trump resistance
I think Xtwitter is broken.
Rumor: “…Rzeszow airbase in Poland, the US has broken down warehouses and torn apart slabs of concrete on the runway to prevent further aid transports to Ukraine. Trump has no intention of resuming US aid to Ukraine.”
I can’t verify this yet, so rumor.
DOGE and Elon fired a bunch of air traffic controllers, planes are crashing, free for all in the sky and now: DHS Ends Collective Bargaining for TSA Officers. Now is not the time to fly in the US. Walk, drive, take a train or just stay home. Don’t fly.

Bot or scraper this is the kind of crap taking over the Internet.
Cryptocurrency is the new snipe hunt.
US Daylight Savings Time goes into effect tonight. I hope you are satisfied.
Saw 2 Tesla cars while I was running errands. The design was okay, I guess, 5 years ago but it’s starting to look dated now.
Dear Mr. Mush:
Thank you for your interest in what I did over the last week.
Cooked breakfast each day, except on the days when I didn’t.
Cooked supper each day, except when I didn’t cook.
Scooped together all my income tax documents in one box for preperation of income tax returns. You, being a billionaire parasite wouldn’t know what it’s like to actually pay income taxes, but I pay mine every year.
Spent lots of time trying to fix an error on my phone. Error was some cloud do-hickey that constipated the blinkenjammer sudo so the phone won’t sinc with the cloud or the cloud won’t sinc with the phone. I don’t think I was successful. Why can’t these things just all get along?
Opened my refrigerator to look at my cache of eggs. Closed refrigerator.
Okay, now I tag you Mr. Mush to tell me 5 things you did last week.
Doomscrolling: I can tell when Xtwitter starts running out of new posts to show me because I start seeing a lot of posts in Spanish.
I forget who brought this up recently but: As Trump pivots to Russia, allies weigh sharing less intel with U.S.. So the 5 Eyes and Israel and Saudi Arabia are cutting back because they don’t trust Trump. Amazing.
I didn’t wear a suit today.
I’m feeling like it’s time to try a new theme on my blog. But honestly I’m afraid if I try to switch the whole thing will break.
So cool, somebody signed both my guestbooks. Nice start to the day.
If I were a European country, I’d be seriously considering cancelling any order for American F-35 fighter jets which cannot be operated independently. I’d be looking at the Swedish Gripen fighter which is extremely capable and a heck of a lot cheaper. My 2 cents.
Frankly the same holds true for many American weapons systems, if there is a European equivalent I’d be buying that instead. Or maybe something from South Korea.

I do keep a collection of quotes.
I should eat something healthy tonight. Something like chicken and Brussels sprouts. :-(
Doom.
If the stock market crashes, it’s all Trump, Musk’s and the Republicans fault. Mainly Trump’s. MAGA’s take note, no where to run, no where to hide and you can’t foist the blame off on anyone else, cos it was all going great under Biden.
If you live in Canada try using Voilà for grocery delivery instead of Instacart. Voilà is Canadian owned and they have an app with a “Shop Canadian” tag.
Corn bread should be more widely available north of the Mason-Dixon Line.
In 1890 the US imposed tariffs on Canada with the eye towards annexing it. It backfired. Here’s a good thread that lays out what happened.
One of my grocery stores had low-sodium kosher dill pickle spears. Never saw them before. They are straight up more tart than same type regular pickles. They don’t have the depth of flavor of the regular ones either. They are just kinda tart with a pickle flavor, not bad and not great. Now if you are watching your sodium intake, these are a very nice option to have and like I say, they are not bad just IMHO not quite as good as the regular.
These were a HyVee house brand pickle.
Here’s what I’m getting from social medial about the Oscars. They seem to have overlooked a lot of actors that died in the last year. That’s a shame because I recognize the names of most of those that died, whereas I have no idea who a lot of the nominees are. Never heard of them.
I think we are heading into a recession or worse. Say what you will about old senile Biden, he was doing a pretty damn good job threading the needle and keeping us out of recession post pandemic. Now we got a bunch of drunks flying the plane into the ground.
BBC shows how tariffs will effect the US automobile industry and probably other industries too.
