I’d be so pissed if I got the blue Kennedy Center Honors and people just thought I ran a 5K or something.

Today is the birthday of American poet James Douglas Morrison, who wrote that “without #touch, we all become big blocks of wood.”
Today’s prompt word is #touch.
And put on some #Doors music to celebrate the Lizard King, while you’re at it.

Greetings from Chicago! I’m looking forward to inspiring some terse creativity on Bluesky this week.
Since December 7, 1941 was a “date which will live in infamy” I’m offering the word #date as my first prompt. Take your best shot at infamy!

No need for a formal ceremony as he'll snatch from the box & put it on all by himself. Both laughably pathetic AND pathetically laughable. 🤡 🫣

ICE and the Trump administration have created a culture of fear.
The fact that they are targeting US citizens shows that they are profiling based on ethnicity.
Yes. They have created a Gestapo.
Please don’t compare Trump to Putin.
Compare him to Hitler or Stalin.

The boats the regime is claiming are going from Venezuela to the US would need to refuel over 20 times to get to Miami.
They are lying to us.

Buddy, I gotta tell you, if I was a GOP representative, my ass would not feel comfortable watching a 15-point swing in a deeply red district ahead of a midterm where the President has been behaving erratically while consistently growing more historically unpopular.

As Hegseth’s ‘kill them all’ bravado comes back to bite him, the administration’s new strategy is simple: deny, deflect, and pin it on the guy in uniform.

Admiral Bradley took over a new command in early October, about a month after the “no quarter” incident in September. Somebody ought to ask if that’s just a coincidence in the timing.

So if I understand correctly, the pardon of Juan Orlando Hernandez is being done to spite Joe Biden. What a poke in the eye of everyone who lost a loved one to drug addiction.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.
