Math, history, and international affairs geek. Love photography & animal videos. Mostly here for fun, but have to #DefendDemocracy. NAFO fella.

Yeah, they make some weird logical leaps! Or they just make up nonsense
The video given to the airports is blatantly illegal. They’re not allowed to use government resources or government statements for partisan political messaging. Of course, they fired all the folks who might hold them accountable for something like that… 🙄😳
Yeah; if Biden had some sort of goof up, he never followed up with a stream of more outrageous ones! 🤷🏼‍♂️
I have always loved photos of rainbows. Getting the rainbow placed right is always a challenge. I was pretty lucky with the Capitol one; the statue on top right in the rainbow.
Will have to see if I can find a good pond scum meme! 🤔
I’m talking in general terms; Trump gets WAY more leeway than other politicians for outrageous or inappropriate behavior. I’ve seen a lot more on social media than anywhere else, but nothing close to any time Biden seemed old.
They all get dumped in rivers & lakes?
Yes. The biggest factor in that (as always) was alcohol consumption. Followed by distracted driving (as in playing with electronic devices). Aviation is very safe!
US Airline crashes in the US:
1/29/2025: army helicopter hits aircraft coming into Washington National Airport
2/12/2009: Commuter plane crashes near Buffalo due to ice in wings
No; nothing between those 2 (airline flights; doesn’t include small aircraft not controlled by FAA).
I’m going with Rock the Casbah! Also Aretha’s Rock Steady.
Isn’t Saturday, 11/29 Small Business Saturday? Can we support our small businesses? 🤔
History Geek notes that the reason the presidency has term limits is that Republicans strongly pushed for it after a Democrat (FDR) got elected 4 times. Changing the term limitation would require a constitutional amendment, which is very unlikely to pass before the 2028 elections.
Science Geek gets a charge from this post! 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️
History Geek notes that mixing religion into politics has a long & extremely ugly history! To quote a former Chief Rabbi of Great Britain: “Mixing religion and politics makes for terrible politics — and for even worse religion” Jonathan Sacks
The rest of America welcomes him, even if the guy who couldn’t extort him to dig up dirt on a political opponent or his sycophants don’t…
Math Geek calculates that if someone paid $114 M, $200 per person, they paid 570,000 people to come. If 7 million people were protesting nationwide, they allegedly paid 8.14% of the total, so per their claim, 91.86% came for free(dom). However, there is no evidence anyone was paid.
Happy Wednesday Annie. And today, the device we’d use to call someone has the exact time built in! Someone must have remembered having to make a phone call to get the exact time. 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️
Except that he bankrupted several casinos. Not sure if he bankrupted any hotels. Maybe he’s practicing for his Gaza riviera hotel?
The normal procedure for something like that would be to file suit. Hopefully such a suit would be thrown out with prejudice because it’s ridiculous. But the #GrifterInChief seems to be demanding that people he supervises just give him the money. The most corrupt dictators are thinking holy 💩!
Everything that the Dodgy DOGE Dudes did made it very clear they haven’t the slightest clue how the government works or what it does. Plus the lead Dodgy DOGE Dude is a world class grifter; much of what they did was to his advantage.
Ummm… does she want to explain exactly how that works? Who’s dropping “abortion pills” into lakes & rivers. 🤔😵‍💫🤷🏼‍♂️
History Geek notes that is the same dude who was the #NoKings in the American Revolution.
Ummm… he could file a law suit. Any reasonable judge should throw it out with prejudice. What does he want; for PamPam to just give him $230 million? #GrifterInChief
Happy Birthday Monica!! 🎉🎂🍨💐
Wishing you a fantastic year.
