Pretty sure that was Kevin Bacon.

Anyway, saw Take Shelter again, and what stellar performances from Michael Shannon and Jessica Chastain, as they navigate what is either his descent into schizophrenia or his terrifying prophetic visions of climatic catastrophe.  Shannon's enormous leonine head seems like the perfect anatomical asset for filling a room with his turbulent emotions and scaring the bejesus out of people.  Chastain is a gorgeous rock of sanity, courage, and stern but tender love.  You may be tempted to make a canned goods run to the supermarket by the time the credits roll.

It's a funny world where there are news outlets less reputable than Fox.

And TDS, in the Right rhetoric, seems have reached that level of change-the-subject ad hominem that PMS used to be for those attacking women's rights.  Don't like people challenging your beliefs?  Just tell them they have a syndrome!  Less mentally taxing than defending your positions with reason and logic.

The NFL has no problem with the Trump Victory Dance.
Who would suggest otherwise?

Why would the NFL give a shit considering the owners mostly are Trump supporters?

More a concession to his obvious landslide victory.

Winning by 1.68 percentage of the national vote is only a landslide to folks who have to keep reaching in their pants to make sure.

Might have to borrow that one.  Well put!

I will add you to the condolence list. Sorry for the delay. 

 
My condolences that you don't know where to put the decimal point. 

1.6 percent.  Get over it.

Trump is apparently looking to scam NATO by selling them toilets for well-endowed men.

Wait.   What? 

Ahh, Matt Whitaker.  Say no more.  The Masculine toilet guy.  When you don't want to dip the teabag in the tea.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. The Donald is right about the great damage caused by mass immigration. Biden is right about?

Vivek Ramaswamy of the soon to be formed DOGE  (Department of Government Efficiency) plans to cut $120billion from Veterans Healthcare program.

I'm definitely seeing a beauty and the beast polarity here.

But, I need to expand my vocabulary, and I need to stop saying "need" as often.

Self-aware humor!  A cognitive leap forward.

I remember when conservatives used to be opposed to criminals getting off on a technicality.

What technicality?

The Supreme Court's creation of an evidentiary privilege for executive communications even when planning and committing felonies, for one.

Arent felonies part of the official duties of a president yet?  Trump clearly dawdled in his first administration.

The sea lion is sunning itself on a rock, I see.  Oh dear, not just sunning.  Look away, little Susie.

Meanwhile, Nancy Mace obsessed over the vag criteria for gender.  Where does she stand on double mastectomies - are they also not really women and get their pee pots taken away?  What about the post-menopausal, like her?  Can't bear children, are they really women?
