Ta, Evan. I was working and missed it.

OT: So a big chunk of Texas is on fire some 60 miles from Amarillo (and it’s jumped the Oklahoma border). Abbott says: “The State of Texas stands ready to provide support to our local partners and deploy all resources needed to protect our fellow Texans and their property.”

The question is whether or not he’ll accept Federal help. If he does, betcha he’ll do everything he can to avoid talking about Biden, and he definitely won’t appear in any photo ops with him, or maybe he’ll threaten to have him arrested for something if he enters the state.

Which is a drag because I was looking forward to footage of Biden pushing Abbott’s wheelchair. Up a hill.

By the way, in case anyone tracks these things, there’s apparently a nuclear waste site 30 miles from Amarillo.

It's the Pantex plant where nuclear warheads are made.

Hey, what could go wrong?

Nutz. I have a doctor's appointment later this afternoon that I'm dreading. At the moment not being able to sleep for the past week has caught up with me and waves of exhaustion are washing over me like warm waves. All I want to do is lay down and go to sleep, but what I have to do is haul my sorry ass downstairs in a few minutes and see if I can remain upright in the shower long enough to get clean.I'd wanted to put on a bit of war paint and see if I could do something creative with my hair, but at this point I'll be lucky if I can get my boots on the correct feet when the time comes.

So help me Sagan but I have GOT to get some freakin' sleep later today. I do not feel right at all.

Have a drink, and a nice sleep after your app.!

They don't care what you look like, anyway.

(Ugh! It sucks. I had an app. this morning at 7:30am,)

Maybe gabapentin for sleep and pain issues? That's what my doc prescribed this am. Not feeling right is a stone drag. Sugar items for energy in the short term?

I'm already taking gabapentin at bedtime. A pretty big dose. It isn't quite doing the trick, unfortunately.

Biden's team needs to copy Trump's in one way--just flat out openly insult the media, repeatedly, read them for filth on a regular basis, to the point that the audience sees just what disingenuous hacks they are. Play the refs, change the playing field, and take charge of the new media narrative.

Yep, the myth of the Liberal Media still holds sway.

Destroy that myth with constant confrontation, and the audience will factor in media bias when they consume the media. Republicans pulled this off, why can't Democrats? Do we think we owe something to these "journalists"?

OT: Per Colorado Public Radio, the Boeberts continue to be the Palins of Lolorado:

"While officials have yet to release details, Colorado Bureau of Investigation records indicate Tyler Boebert was breaking into vehicles to steal credit cards and other identification documents, such as driver’s licenses and passports."

Tyler is son responsible for making Bobo a 36-year-old meemaw last year. Bobo's ex-husband got arrested last month for, inter alia, beating up on his son Tyler, allegedly for Tyler's taking poor care of his child.

It's easy as hell dunking on the Boeberts, Jeebus knows, but for me it's getting unsettling at least as to the young 'uns. Tyler Boebert may or may not be a complete piece of shit, but what chance did he really have with those asshole maniacs as parents?

Jaysum crimony. I was a neurology certified RN for years, spending my 12 hour shifts repeatedly assessing the cognitive orientation of anywhere from 2 seriously ill patients or upwards of 5 more stable patients. Recognizing any changes in the baseline status was my gawd damned JOB.

There is NOTHING cognitively amiss with President Joe Biden, FFS.

"Is the President doing enough to reunite families separated by the Trump administration's border policy?"

"Wait- really?"

"No, not really. My real question is 'Biden is older now than he was when elected, despite criticism. Does he think this reckless disregard of his critics will help him in the election, when, scientists claim, he may be even older?'"
