My boobs are good so off for my COVID boosters I go. A reminder to all if you are going to get your annual boob squish get your booster after or wait two months after your COVID booster to get your boobs annually inspected.

Beware of self-described boob inspectors. At least ask to see a card or something.

My wife was born in Grand Rapids, MI and they lived across the street from the Fords. Her older sister used to babysit for young Jack, probably when he was just a bit older than he is in the photo above. She said they were always very nice to her but she never mentioned the chocolate cake.

The objective of the MAGA agenda is obvious. Undo all of the social advances made over the past 70 years and return American society to 1920 standards. All aboard the Trump Train! We're on our way back! Amen and Hallelujah!

If you look at a map, it's fairly obvious that Gaza is prime coastal real estate. Ripe for the construction of resort hotels by Kush and Fat Donnie. Now get those fukkin' people out of there, Bibi. If you have to kill most of them, so what. We're makin' some money!!

Vladimir Putin became involved in politics for one reason, to rebuild the USSR. Regaining Ukraine is the first and most important step. Having grown up in the shadow of the Cold War, I get it, and the danger of a reunited USSR. Young people just don't get it.. One young MAGA dude tried to explain to me that Ukraine was always part of Russia anyway. My objections were simply swept away as "you're as senile as Joe Biden, and as stupid as that ni@@er bitch (Harris)" Trump plans to hand over Ukraine. "it's none of our concern!! We need to focus on domestic affairs, let Putin do whatever the Hell he wants" With the aid of DJT, Putin will realize his dream of rebuilding the USSR. However, the Trump family will get Hotels and Golf resorts in return

Well I feel attacked.

Although I think there were several cocktails left out of the instructions.

Also, apropos of nothing in particular, except maybe trying to find joy where you can.

One of the things I like about working at a small company, is that when I ask if we can have caffeinated coffee pods and whole milk, we get caffeinated coffee pods and whole milk.

It's not much, but it's nice when it happens.

I'm find myself more firmly believing that we all need to carry cyanide capsules so that we can swiftly snuff it if we're ever forced to contend with such unspeakable torture.

We were in Florida (!) right after the election, and we had to listen during an Uber drive to some talk radio assholes blathering on about how immoral it was to not have Thanksgiving dinner with your Trump-voting relatives. The ride was blessedly brief.

The relatives who voted for the guy affiliated with, supported by, beholden to, and who will do nothing to stop people who don't want you to exist? Those relatives?

MAGA folk looked at the election as “just an election”. They don’t understand that it was a test of morals and intelligence. They’re genuinely surprised that people are judging them.

“My three daughters all voted for Harris in Oregon, a state that gave all its Electoral College votes to Harris. Two of them have now stopped speaking to me (and one is boycotting Thanksgiving) because I voted Trump. I did not tell them how to vote, nor 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚. I 𝐥𝐞𝐭 them vote how they wish.

He ”let them vote”. Mighty nice of him. I bet his ungrateful daughters didn’t even ask him for permission!

How dare there be consequences!

I’m sure posting a public comment saying his daughters were misled by propaganda, are childish & rude, and are suffering from a mental disorder will help rebuild his relationship with his daughters.

The condensation and arrogance is just dripping off him.

The election was about morals, and compassion, and decency and preserving our democracy. The Trump voter is either tragically stupid, selfish, self destructive, callous, or all 4. Being an asshole isn't illegal but it does have consequences.

Expand full comment

Your vote is an expression of morality too, and you failed there big guy. Glad his daughters are judging him.

Expand full comment

Maybe your daughters are upset that you chose as leaders people who would be indifferent to -- or who are ACTIVELY TRYING TO CAUSE -- their deaths.

Which means you also in a way are indifferent to their deaths.

Maybe that's what's bugging them.

Ya think?

It really is astonishing. He gives not one thought to the feelings and concerns of his own children. Not a moment of asking, how do my choices threaten my own kids? Not a moment of reflection, regret, or horror that his children see that to be true and see his disdain at the thought that he is choosing to hurt them. Not a second's concern for how he impacts their lives or what HIS actions tell THEM about what he thinks of them or whether he values them. His one thought is how mad he is that they're holding him accountable.

Well, guess what? Sounds like your kids have decided you contribute nothing of value to their lives and they don't need you.

Even some Republicans are reportedly "horrified" by Trump's plans to name Seb Gorka to a national security post (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/27/trump-national-security-gorka). Reminder: last time around, he was fired by John Kelly after failing to obtain a security clearance. I am assuming no such impediment exists now, because Trump is all for skipping right past the vetting.

Saw something earlier that someone posted suggesting that Biden and the Senate should proceed with background checks on Trump's appointees since Trump isn't inclined to do so.

Background checks are to see if somone may be suceptible to blackmail. Hell, now that grift/graft is out in the open, blackmail is passè
