Jarvanka's kids thrown out of school...

Shit! More tangerine wankmaggot caravans this week. Fuckers just won't give up...

Remember Stormy Daniels 2nd time on Kimmel?

Putting this in the lounge because he's just a comedy backdrop now.

Something's been bothering me for a while, probably a lot of you, too...

It's trump's lack of understanding of how things work. Now that trump's going away, we probably don't really care, but the problem is bigger than him.

When he said the Mexicans would pay for the wall, we laughed, Mexico laughed, and contractors laughed all the way the bank.

Then he told us the Chinese were paying all those tariffs. Nobody made a big deal out of how tariffs are like sales taxes-- WE pay the tariffs, not the Chinese. The Chinese were expected to lose sales because of the increased cost of goods, but much of what they sell us has no other source, so the only winner is the US govt finding another tax source. The loser is not China, but US consumers. And this is without dealing with the history of tariffs and when the work, or don't

Then he tells us the problem with rising covid cases is testing. This is pure idiocy-- reducing testing will reduce the number of tested cases, but not the uncounted, untested cases. Reducing testing is basically lying to the pubic and increasing the danger of the epidemic. Those cases we can't see can't hurt us? And, of curse, reducing testing gives us other problems.

My aggravation with this is that while we expect the asshole-in-chief to come up with this nonsense, there was no outrage. Educated people did not stand with one voice and say "You are full of shit."

The local asshole brigade is organizing another trump parade tomorrow. Another 40 mile caravan...

Should I hang a huge TRUMP LOST IN 2020 flag on my car and join them?

Holy Shit! The internet is slow today. Even my phone is swimming in molasses.

A new hint for controlling overeating...

WebMD sends me (and lots of you, I bet) tons of emails with sensible tips on all sorts of things, not the least of which is healthy eating...

I know abut stuff like smaller buffet plates and drinking water, but I had no idea the color of your plates and bowls could affect your appetite.

Enjoy, and don't forget the bubble gum for shopping trips:

We'll find out who won eventually but...

I find it absolutely incredible that after these four years trump gets the amount of support he does.

Or any at all.

This is not any normal election. Reagan, the Bushes, Ike, McCain, Goldwater, Ford, Dole, Romney... Even Nixon, before the fall... We disagreed with them about serious policy and attitudes. But they had policies, and even if Reagan and Nixon had their scandals, none of them were working actively against the country and its people. They all genuinely believed they were doing their best for the nation.

How so many people miss that lack in this lopsided, snaggletoothed shiteater befuddles me.

Has our nation sunk so low, or did we just not notice since out past presidents and candidates never sunk this low before.

Whichever, it is disgusting and depressing that we are here.

I'll shut up now.

Intersections vs. circles vs. proper roundabouts

There are three roundabouts in my town that work very well. Except for the one that has one or two cars a year jumping a curb. The Pizza Hut there closed because it got hit twice in a year and a half.

New Jersey has absolutely the worst of them on the planet. I rear ended someone years ago when she slammed on the brakes in the newly "modernized" but dreaded Somerville circle. But, that's Joisey which will take any idea and do it with genius or fuck it up hopelessly, with little in between.

And then there's that big circle in Rome which left us in hysterical laughter and was far worse than the one in European Vacation. Amazing that no one got hurt and not even a fender dented.

But, anyway-- here's the facts and why Americans hate roundabouts even though they are better

How's this for Harley bike-- as in bicycle. Electric bicycle...

They can't sell their electric motorcyle, so took off in new direction:



It's called Serial 1 and there is absolutely nothing much about it, like weight, speed, range, or price, but they say it will be available around March.

And yes, that is a belt, not a chain.
