Secretary Brainworms, appointed by President Spirochetes. We are fucked.

Oh, and over at the Department of War Crimes Whiskey Pete is sacking the general officers and doing racism/misogyny to the promotions list.

And Cheetoh Mussolini says we have to cut Medicare and Medicaid because he needs the money for his idiotic war against Iran.

Seriously, is there anyone who thinks this administration is doing a good job at anything? Maybe I live in a blue bubble or whatever, but I don't know anyone who isn't pissed off.
GAH!

The only thing Donald is good at is dividing people and profiting from the misfortune of others. But I do believe starting the Iran war has hurt him politically and damaged his pea brain further. His thought process appears to be coming unglued at a faster pace than it was prior to the war.


As an aside, I'd really like to have the opportunity to throw one punch at this guy.....

“Most” refers to the greatest amount, quantity, or degree, representing the majority (51%–99%) of a group or the highest extent of something. - Merriam Webster Dictionary.com
Washington, D.C. is a highly diverse, predominantly urban area with a population of approximately 681,000–690,000, where Black (non-Hispanic) residents form the largest group at roughly 42–43%, followed by White (non-Hispanic) at 36–37%, and a growing Hispanic population at nearly 12%.
I won’t belabor the posting of demographics, you can look it up yourself - but DC’s population skews much younger than what would be expected if all the white hippies attending the No Kings rallies there were 90 years of age or older. Maybe they were bussed in?

The No Kings I have attended have had a large contingent of 50s-70s aged protestors - we grew up during and tail end of the Civil Rights and anti-Vietnam War protest eras and so have it in our DNA to believe that protesting works.

But there were also plenty of younger protesters too - they made some of the coolest snarkiest signs and are really angry about wealthy pedophiles running roughshod over our justice system, the cost of living and lack of opportunity economically, and now of course they are furious about another senseless treasury and lifeblood sucking Middle East war - they’ve grown up with endless Middle East wars and they are beyond fatigued.

When I’m having to manage stress, which is much of the time these days, I indulge myself with violent fantasy - my therapist told me years ago that this is okay, so long as one never actually considers acting out said fantasies. Depression is anger turned inward and it’s important to redirect anger to the people who deserve it. So I fantasize a lot about Stephen Miller, and using his face like it’s a speed bag.

Depression is anger turned inward. This is an idea that causes me to think. If I have stumbled over it before, I ignored it, Now it has my attention.
Thank you. snailgate.
