This is not normal.

It is, in fact, not just profoundly *weird*, but genuinely threatening. A man who could write this (or approve of its writing) has a solid chance of becoming President of the United States.

That must not happen.

#RIPJamesDarren

While people recall #JamesDarren 's "Gidget" and "Star Trek" and "TJ Hooker" creds, for me he will always be Tony from Irwin Allen's short-lived "Time Tunnel" TV series. The show aired when I was in kindergarten, and I had a green turtleneck I wore that was my special "Tony shirt."

Thanks, sir, for the variety of entertainment you provided over the years. And for my Tony shirt.

"Trump’s Latest Move to Avoid Abortion Is His Strangest One Yet"

#Trump keeps tacking back and forth on #abortion, and he's not gaining any votes by it. More likely the opposite.

On the off chance that I sometimes seem to be purely partisan in my commentary, I am more than happy to asset that this #Colorado #Democrat legislator is an privileged asshole. Just sayin'.

"Trump calls his former chief of staff a terrible, stupid person'"

Ever notice how many of his top people #Trump ends up condemning a stupid or or terrible or crooked or nasty, etc.?

In the Real World we call that, at best, being a crappy hiring manager.

"Trump escalates gendered personal insults against Harris, defying GOP pressure"

"I'm entitled to personal attacks" is a good chunk of all you need to know about #DonaldTrump. What an unpleasant human being.

Okay, I've nothing to say about Jimmy Rane at the moment, but realizing the US has its 250th birthday coming up in 2026 just strangely upped the stakes of the #November2024 election.

Or, put another way, who would you rather see presiding at endless #semiquincentennial celebrations, #Trump or #Harris?

Frankly, I can't imagine a greater embarrassment to such an historic moment than #DonaldJTrump.

"Trump insists that he was on helicopter with Willie Brown"

As is so often true, one has to wonder if #Trump is delusional, forgetful, or just deeply dishonest.

Combinations are also possible.

The views expressed by me on this weblog are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer, my church, my party, my candidate, my community, my wife, my friends, or, on occasion, myself.

Views expressed by others are, well, theirs. I reserve the right to delete them, but it’s usually better to let the marketplace of ideas hold sway, even if some packages are long past their expiry date.

Stuff I link to? Sometimes it’s because I agree with it. Sometimes because I disagree with it, but want to point (mockingly, in some cases) to my sources regardless; I have a liberal arts background; I believe in citations. And linking to stuff is what the Internet is about.
