Let me put my cards out clearly.

All cable news sucks. Even the ones which occasionally get it right.

Humans were not meant to be inundated with news 24/7. It's unnatural, and actively harmful.

It's why I haven't watched any of it, save for Jan 6, since 2009, when the knives immediately came out for Pres. Obama.

One's mental health would be greatly enhanced by excising that habit in toto.

Well, howdy new users! Welcome aboard!

Just to let you know that is a different place. It's not Twitter. It's not a "Twitter lite". This is a different kind of space. Get to know it. Leave the way you were on the bird site behind. You'll have a much better experience if you do.

OK, I'm going on radio silence for a bit. See y'all when I see y'all.

So, Stewie and Kiki LaRue are barking at my aunt and uncle's empty house. Guys, they're gone, Thor your frenemy is gone, chill.

LOL. Chicken for Colonel Sanders. Trump will just let Bibi depopulate Gaza and build Trump Tower Khan Younis on the land.

These are not people expecting to win.

But, do go on about how Trump is likely to win.

There are so many people on social mediaβ€”and, I'm sorry, but they're mostly whiteβ€”who have never faced adversity, so when things get hard they just assume everything will go to shit and stifle any hint of hope, even if all signs point to a good outcome. It's not sad, it's infuriating.

Well. I just saw a toot on here saying that "Trump is likely to win, and us Canadians will help people escape."

Fuck. You. Maybe worry about your own elections and make sure your mini-Trump doesn't become PM next year.

Instablock. Jaysus.

Oh Holy Mother of God. I've been toiling away all morning, and I figured it was time for a cafecito cubano break. I used Illy coffee, and Jaysus, it's good.

I am methodically proceeding with the cleaning of the house. Ply me with booze, please. And pizza.

Fuck it! I'm gonna have Hallmark Channel Christmas movies on as I clean! Cry havoc, and let slip the tides of Yule!

I think I shall watch the Klaus Kinski "Nosferatu" tonight.

"Can you imagine enduring centuries experiencing the same futility each day?"

OK friends, I'm off. Be well. VAMOS DOYERS!!!!!!! VAMOS KAMALA!!!!!!!!!

Walker Buehler has had TWO Tommy John surgeries, and he just closed out the World Series.

DODGERS WON TONIGHT!!!!! KAMALA'S WINNING TUESDAY!!!!! LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!!
