Escapee from Twitter. Sick and tired of algorithms telling me how mad I should be. I am using the same avatar I used on Twitter. Me personally, I define myself as the living embodiment of a non sequitur.
The offerings at Costco are starting to really blow my mind. I fully expect to see an aircraft carrier for sale there one day. They also sell coffins as well.

There is one overriding political problem, from which all others follow. Until it is addressed, every policy advanced by governments is window dressing.

Sure, you and your fellow libs hate Trump, but you'll be crying woke tears when those banana factories actually do relocate to places that support Trump wholeheartedly like WV and OK. Just you wait.
"Does this feel like or look like a well-run competent administration? It took them 10 months to discover that the United States doesn't grow bananas and that therefore if we tariff bananas that that's not going to bring banana factories on shore."

I am simply dying for some reporter to ask Trump:

"Are you really this stupid, or is this all an act?"

I couldn't care less about #LaneKiffin going from Ole Miss to LSU cuz shockingly UVA has won 10 games and maybe more.

BUT, it does give me an excellent opportunity to post this which is Lane in a nutshell.

Dawson County (where this plant is) in Nebraska voted almost 2:1 for Trump and MAGA supported politicians in 2024. They forged the sword that is cutting them. Maybe some other town can learn from their pain in the next election.

Geez. Did they ever care to begin with?
The Daily Show nailed another one of talking heads flip flop. Do they actually care any more?

Good idea, however, I really have no intention of associating with people who will be bringing up Charlie Kirk in a positive manner.
The next time ANYONE brings up Charlie Kirk, just shrug and say, "He was controversial. A lot of people weren't fond of that... gentleman. Things happen." ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just in case anyone was curious, here's a picture of the reporter that Trump called "Piggy". Feel free to post your own pictures afterwards of what the person who absurdly called her that looks like.

He really is disconnected from reality.

Only because I'm super petty, I wonder if someone pointed out to Trump that yesterday was Pam Bondi's 60th birthday and asked him how he wished to observe that.

Three years ago, I made one small order online from Yankee Candle. In the pursuing years I have received sometimes 3 or 4 emails a day from them to buy things.

I don't know if they got the strategy from Democrats money raising texts or vice versa, but it seems very similar to each other.

Will any reporter ever ask why he is scrapping these tariffs if he believes other countries pay them instead of US citizens?

Of course they won't.

I am curious about how social media will handle this. I already have AI's answer to answer to this question, but curious about actual humans:

How many times do you use a towel after a shower before you wash it?

Assume, regular process. No one's sick. You're the only one using it. Etc.

While I think it is terrific that Democrats swept the statewide offices, let's not lose the thread that they also held on to the House of Delegates & increased that margin by a whopping 13 delegates!

I wanted to attend his speech when he was here in Charlottesville, but got frozen out in tickets. But voting is going on now!

GO VOTE VIRGINIA!
SEND THE MESSAGE!
A freedom-loving people will not stand for the corruption and the power grabs we’re witnessing daily in our country. That's why millions of Americans took to the streets a few days ago, and it's why elections like the Virginia governor race will show the path to a better future a few days from now.
