PSA - get your documents to prove your citizenship now. If you wait until you need them, it will be too late.

I get the feeling that from next year in the US there'll be a lot less surfing but a great deal more serfing.......unless you're extremely wealthy of course.

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
So ripped off, so stepped on

Dear Joe:

It's a good day to implement "Presidential Official Act immunity."

Call me: I'm drafting the Executive Order text, which prevents an "elected" candidate from "Holding" the office, per Amendment 14, Section 3.

NB: after reading Roberts' decision twice, they prevented Colorado from 'election disqualification' but remained silent on 'holding'.

Good morning groovy souls.

Feeling better today, overall. I've been hitting the grass a bit to hard, not to mention the snacks, but there is at least a feeling of equilibrium this morning.

"As much as I wish things were different, this is where I am right now"

It's time to take a deep breath, acknowledge the stress, and take the next steps, no matter how big or small they are.

Prognostications of the next 4 years fly, but I think its important to remember that we are always the X factor.

I’m feeling like Robert Heinlein was more prescient than I thought, and that’s unsettling.

Another version...

any journalist who announces McCarthy endorsing an impeachment inquiry on President Biden, without mentioning by the #GOP own admission there is no evidence, is furthering fascist propaganda

Ahhh, morning coffee

Reading this, I just realized that Elmo is living his entire life in a state of unacknowledged terror.

Everything he does is because he believes he's in danger of getting killed by events beyond his control.

Why electric cars? Because humans are crappy, dangerous drivers and might MURDER him.

Why Mars? Because an asteroid might hit Earth and MURDER him.

Why AI? To keep someone ELSE'S AI from MURDERING him.
