Yes, it is a magical number.

Had a nice, quiet day yesterday. Opened some gifts (and a cute “follow the treasure trail of posters” that Kitten did) from Margie and Katherine, as well as handed off some late Christmas gifts to them in return.

Did my MT4 upgrade into production.

Ate too much at the Brewery Bar.

Started to downloaded a trial of LotRO.

Sat on the couch with my lovely wife and watched a Poirot movie.

Went to bed.

Not a bad day at all.

I’ve said it before, but… Hippo Birdy Two Ewes!
I love the Poirot series. I was very surprised to see David Suchet in one of the Ustinov Poirots as… Inspector Japp! (I was going to link the IMDB entry for it, but the formatting buttons are gone.)

Happy Birthday Dave. You’ll have to let me know what you think of LoTRO. I’m enjoying it.

#MAGA Crew: "All your #culture stuff is sick and depraved and un-American and should be defunded if not prosecuted, and all your supporters kicked out of their leadership roles."

Also MAGA Crew: "How dare you decide not to show a popular musical at the #KennedyCenter just because we fired all the Democrats from the board?! You're not being fair! How terribly #intolerant you are!"

#California Governor #GavinNewsom portrays himself as a progressive leader and future presidential material. And he has been known to go toe-to-toe with folk like #Trump and #DeSantis .

That doesn't mean he's a good person, or that his political aspirations ought to be encouraged. Not if his first big post-election policy shift is throwing #trans folk under the bus.

I'm shocked, shocked that other countries, including (perhaps especially) the strongest and longest US #allies consider #Trump -- and, by extension, the lackeys he's installing -- as unreliable.

Sure, maybe that means they'll pick up more of the tab for their own defense, at a cost to their domestic economies and people. More importantly, though, that means they won't be (at the very least) sharing intelligence with us. Which makes *us* net-net weaker.

Because nothing says our nation has as a priority "veterans’ ability to receive timely and quality care" like firing 80k #VA employees.

I guess #Trump really does consider #veterans "suckers" and "losers."

If it seems that the #GOP is out of touch with their constituents, that's their plan.

"#Republicans advised to avoid in-person town halls after confrontations over layoffs go viral"

They're happy to "represent" you, as long as they can control the microphone.

Is Rep. Ogles just looking to curry #Trump favor? Or is Trump's actual strategy to deal with a #judiciary he doesn't yet fully control to get folk to #impeach #judges that stand in his way?

Apparently #conservatives and #GOP media shills are still holding a grudge about Obama wearing a tan suit, now morphed into " #Zelenskyy is disrespecting the US in general and #Trump in particular by not wearing a tux and tails and top hat when he visits the #WhiteHouse ."

Note also how the headline makes all of that the Ukrainian president's fault.

"Trump wants to shrink the State Department’s size, reach and focus"

So #Trump is out to reshape the #StateDepartment to be more like him:

* Transactional
* Interested in driving profit
* Unhelpful and inconvenient
* Uncaring about what other people think of us
* Disdainful about helping others
* Disinterested in democracy
* A big help for #Russia and #China.

Team #Trump blames the victim by saying that #Zelenskyy somehow forced #Trump and #Vance to attack him on camera by pressing for security commitments (as he has all along) as part of a #Ukraine minerals deal, after they told him not to. Also, he didn't properly "praise Trump" as instructed, and insisted on mentioning #Russian aggression.

If Zelenskyy made any error, it is in believing that security guarantees from this US administration would actually mean anything.

Trump and Vance's failed attempt to humiliate, cow, retaliate against, and otherwise attack the president of an allied country, in front of White House cameras, was despicable, shameful, and #evil.

It's also put the world on notice that if you don't kow-tow to Trump on everything, always, he will take personal, petty revenge, regardless of what it does to peace, safety, or human lives.

"US judge further blocks #Trump's order curbing youth gender-affirming care"

Question: if the President of the United States can simply dictate that "there are only two sexes," what other "truths" can he establish by fiat and up-end the law and lives over. "Only heterosexual marriage is real"? "There is only one True Religion"? "Whites are the superior race"? "Only men can have jobs outside the home"? "We have always been at war with Eastasia"?

"Most #bannedbooks feature #peopleofcolor and #LGBTQ people, report finds"

Of course. That's the intent. Acknowledging such people exist, let alone that they face discrimination and other issues, makes conservatives feel uncomfortable and defensive. Easier to just get the books banned.

As always, one has to wonder if Trump is tribally deluded, maliciously mocking, or else "just" gruesomely nihilistic.

#Trump appoints screw-loose podcaster Dan #Bongino as Deputy #FBI Director.

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.
