It costs nothing to be nice.

However, being a complete asshole is also free, so do whatever brings you joy.

The great thing about being an adult is being able to do what you want, like take a nap.

But not now, because I’ve got this work thing…

And I’m waiting for the appliance repair guy to come look at the washer in our new house that’s not working…

And I’ve gotta finish moving…

And walk the dogs…

Happy Columbo’s Day

Screenshot from Columbo. He his talking to his dog, which is sitting is the drivers seat of a car. “Okay, I’m gonna put you in charge. You take care of the car. You’re a responsible dog. When I get back, if the car’s okay, I’ll give you another cookie.”

So, aside from the Dodgers beating the Phillies, my prediction is holding strong!

Still picking the Brewers to bring home their first World Series Championship!

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

In a normal world, Congress would immediately impeach and remove this traitorous president.

These layoffs are illegal and will be challenged in court. Keep resisting, Democrats.

Tweet from The Washington Post reads: “Breaking news: The Trump administration began laying off federal workers while the government is shuttered, fulfilling threats from President Trump to take advantage of the closure to shave off more parts of the federal workforce he dislikes.”
Below is an image of Donald Trump speaking. Caption: “Trump administration begins laying off federal workers…”

So because I’m moving this weekend, I waited to list my tickets to Game 5 of the NLDS series between the Cubs & Brewers because I was trying to see if I could make the game.

And now, it looks like I can’t even list them, and no one I’ve asked seems to be serious about buying them. GAH!!

The Administration

- raised taxes on clean energy with one big beautiful bill

- is stopping or making clean energy projects harder to be built

- is raising prices on materials with tariffs

- all while AI is spiking electricity demand

They are stopping supply while demand goes up

It’s a crisis

Sen. Susan Collins tells me Republican leaders should promise to hold a vote on extending ACA funding to try an end the shutdown — an olive branch to Democrats.

I'm sorry, did Temu Mel Gibson here just sat that the baby is *in* the placenta?

Is there any aspect of human biology this lumbering science experiment of a man can't get wrong?

RFK Jr: "Somebody showed me a TikTok video of a pregnant woman at 8 months pregnant -- she's an associate professor at the Columbia Medical School -- and she is saying 'F Trump' and gobbling Tylenol with her baby in her placenta. The level of Trump Derangement Syndrome is now a pathology."

I can’t wait for the Trump regime to announce their plans to go after the rallies planned across the country in 9 days.

I’m betting it’ll be called “Operation Yes, King” #NoKings

I honestly don’t expect anything to happen this time around until maybe Thanksgiving.

Yes, that means a whole lot of shit being bad for a whole lot of people, but hey - that’s what the Republicans want, right?
