Coincidentally, that’s the age difference between Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky.

As Mike Muir once said, “Maybe you need to be offended”.

My mother is 90 years old, and she said she has never seen such times in her life. She has lived through the Great Depression, WWII, Korean War, Vietnam, civil rights riots, recessions, etc. etc and she has never seen a more corrupt (and in her words “evil”) President and administration. She is afraid for our country…

I also asked her to describe Trump in three words and her response was: “Stupid asshole”

I haven’t lived through a swath of history, but I’m listening to the excellent podcast The History of Rome, and I’ve found that it has given me some perspective.

I wrote to my grandmother on election day to tell her how proud I was to be casting a vote for the first woman presidential candidate, how I looked to the women who taught me I could be anything and how happy I was that we were both able to vote this way.

Unintentionally appropriate though. Bet Trump would enjoy himself immensely in an SS playground.

Because of “economic anxiety”

He’s probably Trump’s handler for the Russians and is currently giving him instructions for how to deal with this.

Yeah, that was a big “We run this shit” move. Any pol who rolls over and ignores this need to be run out of the country. Along with anyone who still supports Trump and claims to be a “patriot.”

I mean. Did you miss the W years?

If the Russians feel comfortable enough to come here and troll over this stuff, it’s over.

MURDAHHHHH

Awhile ago one of my roommates had to go to the hospital for serious cat allergy (he didnt realize it was that severe when his gf brought her cat over). Billed him around 3 to 5k for just a shot, an ambulance, and some minor tests, which on his pay was a lost cause. 2 weeks ago he came down with a monster sickness…

Keep in mind that this is Dallas County, though. I know Texas is deep red, but Dallas County is barely over 50% white and Trump lost it by more than 20 points.

That’s how it works now. Trump goes off to one of his properties, dragging a huge staff along with him, and the government has to pay for their room and board. He gets the profit. It is rather an ingenious con, and one of the reasons someone should take a closer look at the Emoluments Clause.

I lack the ability to be productive at work at this point. I want to put my fist through a wall.

I get the impulse, but why be fair? If the parties were reversed, we’d see wall-to-wall 24/7 coverage with conservative media screaming their heads off. “DEM HYPOCRITES DONT EVEN TRUST THEIR OWN BILL!” “ELITIST DEMS THINK THEYRE TOO GOOD FOR OBAMACARE!”

The fact that I literally said out loud, “Thank goodness my dad got cancer during the Obamacare years” this morning is supremely fucked up.
