niyad's JournalTwins separated at birth? egoloon muskrat and mango mussolini?
Think about the similarities. Both back out on promises. Both cheat their employees, etc. Both take credit for other people's achievements. Both have oversized egos. Both have multiple children by different women. Both are putin-lovers. Both are a threat to security, both national and international. Both are ugly at the soul level. Both look more than a little odd. Both claim to being self-made, yet inherited great wealth. Both are racist, misogynist wastes of resources.
I have probably missed a few. Feel free to add.
Imagine devoting your whole life to public service, and you end up getting
stabbed in the back by people you thought HAD your back.
FLOTUS as Edith Wilson??? This was actual BS I heard at our Drinking
Liberally meeting tonight. Naturally, one of the major topics of discussion was whether President Biden should stay, or go. The consensus was that he should stay, including our facilitator, who is somewhere to the left of Bernie. However, one of our group (of whom I have had doubts for months), insisted that if he stayed, it would be because Jill insists on it, and she is the power behind the throne (her words, not mine). I asked her where she had heard such a thing, and she said that "everybody knows this". I, perhaps not-so-politely, pointed out that I, for one, had not run across that idea before, and nothing I have ever seen of their relationship would give rise to such a notion.
Note to self: Drink VERY liberally BEFORE next meeting, so as not to create a scene.
Bill Penzey's email today about the shooting was one of the kindest, most
loving things I could imagine. I hope somebody who is on the list can post it here. He even explained why he took down the poster that read "Welcome, FAKE electors" from their store across the street from the security zone.
One million acknowledged covid deaths in this country during the pandemic.
But it just occurred to me, in responding to someone in another thread, that we do not talk about those who did not die, but are now suffering, and may well continue to suffer, the effects of long covid. One of my friends contracted covid in June 2020, long before the vaccines were available, was in ICU, on a vent, for over two weeks. She survived, barely, but has brain fog, heart, and digestive issues to this day.
How much long term damage are we as a society, as family, as friends, as the helping orofessions, going to be dealing with?
sharia law or "christian" nationalist talibangelicals (project 2025). Can
anybody explain the difference (apart from which sacred fiction is being used to justify the misogyny, cruelty, and hatred, that is.!
Thanks in advance.
An interesting piece of trivia about the fight for the 19th Amendment. From 1776
to 1848--Seneca Falls-- was 72 years. From 1848 to final ratification of 19A in 1920 was 72 years. 144 years to gain some semblance of equality in this supposed "greatest, bestest country in the world" and the fucking misogynist bastards are trying to strip women of every small advance we have made toward equality and recognition as full human beings in this patriarchal society. We are regressing and devolving as other nations are progressing and evolving. FUCK the misogynists. FUCK the woman-haters. FUCK the "christian" nationalist talibangelicals. SIDEWAYS. WITH RUSTY CHAINSAWS.

Some of the "discussions" hinted at by the media and elsewhere remind me
of something. . what is it? Some phrase I used to hear. . Now, what was it? ? ? Oh, yes, "just asking questions".
