Whack his knuckles, Sister Mary Discipline!

Into the future, yes, although relegating your memory to ai has its pitfalls.
At 72 years, after 18 yrs of school, thousands of books, 50 years a writer, and some vivid life experience, my hippocampus is crammed with info ai can’t approach. If I can’t remember names? Well, that’s a bug, I guess.

Let me get this straight. Trump has immediately TACOed on the blockade of Iran’s blockade, and made the strait open to tankers willing to brave the mines. So, Trump will blockade all ships in Iranian ports & coast w/ US warships, making those ships and crews sitting ducks. Is that correct?

I have never been able to remember names or lists longer than 2-3 items, but I can spout out long passages from Firesign Theater albums from
1971, so there’s that.

Everyone knows the answer: 42.

“Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how were the mixed martial arts?”

killed, at least 1,600 Gazan journalists worked the conflict. That’s an enormous number of journalists: who did they work for? Who paid them?
In that Hamas wore no uniforms, credentials was to wear a vest reading “PRESS.” So, of the 270, how many were actually journalists and how many Hamas?

Gaza is 2.1 million. The population of the city of Chicago is 2.7 million. The Chicago Tribune has 100 local journalists. If just the 270
Gazan journalists were killed, their beats covered just 7,700 people. But whatever percentage of Gazan journalists were killed, far more lived. If 20% were 2/

After the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas, Israel and Egypt imposed a strict ban on access to Gaza for international journalists, so no foreign reporters worked inside Gaza, reporting was funneled to Al Jazeera by Hamas. Now, look at the number of reported journalist deaths. The population of 1/

He has yet to fully convince himself of his glorious and total victory over the Persian Empire, but he’s working on it.

“Irony is dead” is the most overused phrase on Bluesky. That’s a shame, because it’s so appropriate

Sorry, but the Mad Man Approach was a self-inflicted wound. Trump had already seen and rejected Iran’s 10-point terms. To TACO in time, Trump accepted the identical terms - all of which benefit Iran in every respect. Now Trump has to play the Mad Man all over again.

Quite likely it was one of his sons.

The debacle in Iran is putting Epstein back in the spotlight (with Melania’s help), so Trump is frantically trying to pump up immigration panic again.

Notable that he doesn’t name the
victim, and telling that is a woman.

Trump says he is preparing for Apocalypse Now Pr. 2, although it is hard to make another ultimate ultimatum when the first TACOed.

Workin’ on that.

What will Trump’s personal share of the toll be when there’s a truce?

I just returned from a five-month sojourn in Europe, so it’s kind of distressing to come back to an absolute shitshow here.

….still, a promising result.

If Trump can promise to commit genocide and get no comment from his party, little will stand in his way if he chooses to cancel the election without citing a reason.

No. Trump has learned the he can promise a genocide in the scale if the Holocaust and nobody with any power will do anything at all.

Good list, but John Fetterman has been the Democratic contributor to the nightmare.

And the apocalyptic posts were terroristic threats, blatant war crimes.

Not that anybody cares.

They know that anything they say is meaningless; at best, bluster. They surrendered the power of the legislative branch some time ago.

Names will be taken, sycophancy remembered.

And then swallowed with a contented sigh.

Their focus is primarily on Hezbollah right now, as northern Israel is taking a terrible pounding.

As we laugh this a off as another TACO, keep in mind that his recent posts were terroristic threats, which are war crimes. Please keep track. They’re adding up.

Choreographed. And everyone now gets to ignore the fact that Trump’s dementia has crumbled into psychosis for another two weeks.
