Humans have developed smart phones, smart cars ... . Wombats have developed Smart Farts.

And their poops are squares. Less to roll around and bring about predators.

TY for the morning wombat. I think they are both cute and fascinating, and I'm happy they exist.

The little wombat shows some sass

And finds the straw quite yummy

He pulls a sneaky "sniff my ass"

Then heads for mom's warm tummy.

I find "wombat" a cool word. You can say, "You crazy wombat!"

Wombats are loveably grumpy looking whereas VD Pantsed most decidedly is NOT.

Very much advocating for a future edition of TABS featuring the direpig.

The Trump fuehrer bunker is becoming a true supervillain lair.

I read that Onion article last night. They are wrong. Pete Hegseth is the one who wants a trillion and no oversight on his Defense budget. Hegseth defends $1.5 trillion budget request as cost of Iran war climbs to $29 billion https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/national-international/hegseth-defends-budget-request-iran-war-cost/6500955/

AOC needs to go everywhere in the country where it's Trump+ whatever, and she needs to talk to them about how evil and corrupt he is. They'll believe her when she speaks with them because she's a normal human lady person and not their TV screaming at them about wokebots and octo-crats and whatever else their TVs are screaming at them that day.

Welp, I’m off to prison this evening. Wish me luck.

John Kennedy is an Rhodes Scholar. You've got to be pretty sharp to become an Rhodes Scholar. I bet he could tell me what Woke means.

I sent him an email asking. I'll let you know what he says.

I am looking forward to finally knowing what the right means when they describe a person, place, or thing as Woke.

Well that ain't gonna happen.

"John Fetterman says the Democratic base is becoming “increasingly anti-American,” which is funny because we think he’s welcome to suck our fucking asshole, or just resign."

Now that's why I come here.

"But there are also cases like those of Andrew Paul Johnson, a rioter who was charged in Florida with child sex offences including molestation of a victim under the age of 12.

A police report said Johnson promised one of his victims money from the yet-to-be established Jan 6th Government compensation scheme, in order to buy the victim’s silence."

Our tax dollars being used as hush money for child sexual assault. Remember all the times that happened during the Biden Administration?

"Mamdani's New York is coming to tax your private jet."

For some strange reason, I find myself completely UN-terrified by this prospect. In fact, the news that taxes on every private jet in the US were going to triple would not impact me in the slightest.

Beelzebub Griddlecake's avatar

So if I feel mistreated by a previous administration (whichever asshole was in charge right before Biden's term, can't remember his name), am I eligible for some of that slush fund money?

HuffPost: Trump Wants Senate Parliamentarian Ousted After She Nixed Request For Ballroom Project Funds

Trump is reportedly pressuring Senate Majority Leader John Thune to fire the Senate parliamentarian after she ruled against Republicans' request to include funding for the president’s ballroom in a budget bill, sources told NOTUS. The president reportedly called Thune on Monday to complain about the ruling, Semafor first reported. Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth Macdonough ruled Saturday that the request to include funding for the ballroom project didn't pass the "Byrd Rule," a Senate guideline that prevents non-budget items from passing with a simple majority.

You knew that was going to happen. It's about the only knee-jerk reflex Trump has left.

I was reading somewhere that a pundit was advising Democrats not to campaign on how awful Trump is. To an extent that makes sense, Kamala Harris seemed to spend a lot of time just saying Trump was awful and it didn't get her anywhere. On the other hand, saying that ICE acting like jackbooted thugs is Trump's idea of law and order, or that prices are going up because of Trump's tariffs, or that Trump's pardons tend to be strictly for oligarchs, ,these are things that people get upset about. When talking about what's gone wrong in America it's important to remind people that "Trump did that!"

Yes, but first we need to broadcast great solutions and policies that will turn the country around. These things need to be explained simply and concisely. It's not enough to bash Trump. We have to provide a way out of this nightmare.
