Recovering journalist and paleoanthropology geek who feeds many animals. Please, no DMs. I'm old, creaky and married. Also, the Oxford comma is overrated.

What could possibly go wrong with having a genocide apologist run CBS?

Dude looked like a lost grandpa, barely managed a weak grounder to an even more befuddled old man and the TV crew acted like he was Kirk Gibson. Puh-leez.

Loser try-hards doing loser try-hard stuff. "Shock and awe" from an alcoholic YouTuber and a 79 year-old man who looks and sounds like he's about to keel over.

Worrying, but also pathetic. Strong people don't need to do Strong Guy Kabuki Theater. All they project is desperation and weakness.

ultimately it doesn't matter but I constantly find myself wondering if these guys think they're killing it or if they know they don't have the juice

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries.

He said this out loud.

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

The only good thing that happened at Quantico is that nobody in the top brass can say they didn’t know their commander in chief is a dementia-riddled dipshit with a double-digit IQ.
