Pathocracy. Where we've landed:
"A pathocracy is a system of government where a small group of people with personality disorders, like psychopathy or narcissism, gain control over a society. People in a pathocracy are driven by self-interest, extremism, and disregard for others."

We're in danger, girl.
The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

the biggest lie in american politics, probably only second to bush lying us into iraq, has been democrats constantly telling us "we just can't..." only to watch republicans do whatever the fuck they want over and over and over. makes me sick.

Himes: It was exceedingly hard to watch. Even if you stipulate that it is a war, there is a very specific prohibition against killing individuals who have been removed from the fight. And there is no question that these individuals were removed from the fight.

Captain Demento is surely gonna win more Americans over by telling them they're wrong about not being able to afford stuff in this economy. Surely.

I have to laugh at the enormously pathetic scale of his narcissism. He's a yappy chihuahua peeing on everything he sees.

Don't be mad at me for agreeing that Dems should get a progressive firebrand for the role.
Hakeem Jeffries should have a primary opponent & definitely shouldn't be leader.
Just like Chuck Schumer, he is not the right person for this historical time in the U.S.

The best part of Thanksgiving is the soup afterwards. I slow-cooked he carcass for 24 hours for broth and just cooked the noodles, carrots and celery and added the meat from the slow cook. Holy shnikeys, it's delicious. Only wish there was more!

Psycho.
US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth says he wants Putin, Trump and Zelensky at one table for a “peace dinner,” complete with steaks and a salad “with Russian dressing.” Hard to take seriously at a moment when Ukraine is fighting for its survival.
Hegseth is mentally ill and above all, dangerous.

If conservatives didn't have hypocrisy, they'd have nothing.
Pete Hegseth says he’s going to court-martial me for saying the same exact thing he said 9 years ago. What changed for Pete? Well to start, he spends all day thinking about how he can suck up to Trump. When Trump says jump, he says how high.

I miss "Veep" but as comedy, this is way funnier.
I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.
You couldn't write comedy better than this. It's better than VEEP.

Made Thanksgiving dinner Saturday, my hubband's 1st day off. The carcass is finishing off 24 hours of slow cooking to make broth to turn into Turkey Noodle Soup and it already smells amazing in here. Added celery/carrots/onion/herbs for the last 2 hours. I love cooking soups from scratch. 💜
