Good morning. Drinking coffee. Today will be a bit cooler than the last few.

I read milk is better for hydration than plain water. If you look at old B/W dugout photos of athletes, long before sports drinks, you will see them drinking milk. They knew it way back when.

Good morning. Still drinking Aldi French roast coffee.

Trump wants to sell off Federal lands for no good reason. I suggest we sell Florida. It’s only a foot above sea level and full of snakes, gators, Republicans and bugs.

Everything is initials now. Things, medical conditions, disorders that used to have a one word name now have 3 - 4 initials which allegedly stand for words, meaning that everything now has three words to name it instead on one word now referred to by jargon alphabet soup initials. /grump

So one of my local grocery stores is almost totally out of house brand facial tissues. I liked them because they were made in USA at a good price. All they have is Kleenex and Puffs. Could be just a glitch or is it weird Trump supply chain shortages. We shall see.

What are people on social media injecting into their lips?

Good morning. Hot coffee is still good even when the outdoor temp is in the 80’s F. in the dark of the night.

The problems are not just Trump, and MAGA’s. It’s also billionaires, Big Tech, Big Corps, Big Banks, Congress, AI, civics failures, healthcare and hostile propaganda to name just a few.

Good morning. Enjoy coffee, I am.

It’s easy to start a war. It’s darn hard to end one and get out.

The Midwest is under a Heat Dome. That got mentioned several times over the last week. Said Heat Dome is due to move on to the East and New York after Monday. That got mentioned like 5 times in just one news story. If it effects the coasts it’s Big News and a big story.

Good morning. Did I mention coffee?

Idea: Print bubblegum trading cards, called “Creepy Cards”, each with a Trump appointee plus JD Vance added.

It’s Friday, I’m in a snarky mood so: TACO Man video.

It’s Frozen Pizza Friday. Sync your watches.

It’s summer so I bought green salad fixings. It’s time to start having a side salad whenever possible.

Is trickle down working yet?

Good Morning. Coffee done, tea started.

Looked at headlines. Having Trump as president feels like being a passenger in a car on a two lane road driven by someone who is very drunk who half the time is about to hit somebody head on or over correcting and about to go into a deep ditch. Scary.

Today’s Quote:

It is a bad sign when the people of a country stop identifying themselves with the country and start identifying with a group. A racial group. Or a religion. Or a language. Anything, as long as it isn’t the whole population.

Matt Stoller asks, why is Google still in one piece? It seems like spineless waffling has set in and nobody has the guts to force a breakup of Google. Both the search and ad portions of Google should be broken up: Chrome, Android, search, ads, payola for search, they all should be broken up. Now.

Good morning. Nothing better than that first cup of coffee in the morning.

Musk ruined XTwitter, only Morlocks like it now. DOGE, Tesla, space company, boring company all in trouble or going nowhere fast. He’s self destructing.

MAGA caps are made in China, the Trump Bible was printed in China, Trump’s new cellphone is made in China. Trump sure likes Made in China when his profit margin is on the line.

I hope the US does not get involved in a war with Iran in any way.
