I do expect he will drop dead from natural causes just due to odds pretty soon.
Trump looked pretty rough today -- note that both of his hands are discolored

Duluth radar fun to look at right now.

I have to work tonight at what should be an empty mall with all the snow about to drop. It won’t be. If you’re stuck at the Airport, I can accept you being there shopping otherwise, please don’t drive.

You’d at least get some vitamins doing something like that.
I'd rather drink goat's blood.

The sunshine was nice today. A bit less depressing on this side of the solstice.

Happy solstice y’all. Here’s to more sun lit hours to come.

Lots of public displays of affection lately. I’m not a total prude but save those 3 second or longer kisses for places other than the mall.

Sneaking out to the bar after a late closing shift. It is busier than I expected.

I hope this cartoon makes the history books.
And Trump mulls how to react

Putting an end to this is just rational in my view.

They’re stealing from us. They are stealing from us and we have to put a stop to this. This cannot stand.

It's worth taking a look at what Vinay Prasad has accomplished during his tenure as FDA CBER Director thus far. Sure, he was temporarily Loomered, but he's back and unfortunately more effective than ever.

Several customers ask me how business is going and I will be honest and say down and why it is down. Some seem to understand that it is not good out there. With others, I have a tough time being careful with my words because I’m at my job.
“.. The US economy is in a hiring recession. Almost no jobs have been added since April.

“Wage gains are slowing.

“710,000 more people are unemployed now versus November 2024.”
