Talk about chickens coming home to roost !Giant Trump signs on your barns. Sure, sure. But we’d rather not watch Trump bail you out again with our tax money. The MAGA mindset is bewildering. ZERO sympathy for your struggles. Really. youtu.be/4KhwWrTKk80?...

Love it. “So I just found out that Donald Trump revoked my security clearance. Here’s the funny thing: Dude, I retired from the military a year ago. I don’t even have a security clearance. Dumbass. I’m sorry that I’m living rent-free in your head, Donald. But you got this wrong,” Kinzinger posted

Imagine that ! These guys were inspired by our own Jan 5 insurrection. You know, the ‘peaceful tourists’ event. www.reuters.com/world/americ...

A friend’s brother captured this great horned owl after mounting a backyard camera.

Actually, it’s very, very clear www.facebook.com/reel/6498260...

Go, MAGA, go ! You got this. Voters who resisted former President Joe Biden, who gave the U.S. the strongest economy in the world, near full employment and a roaring stock market, are now preaching a stay-the-course sermon, because it’s their guy.” www.nj.com/politics/202...

Time for one giant GoFundMe. Poor guys.

Be afraid. Be very, very afraid. Like George Carlin prophetically said 20 years ago, “they’re coming for your social security. And you know what ? They’ll get it”https://www.wired.com/story/doge-operatives-access-social-security-administration/

Heh heh.

Friday 3.8 mile hike to the La Rocha trail by lake hollywood and back. Chilly, but needed to get out after the heavy rains. Reinvigorated.

Interesting ! “Wozniak, who has Ukrainian heritage, also knocked Musk and Trump for "bullying" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during last week's so-called "peace talks." "If you're in school, the bully is going to force their way on the little guy," said Wozniak. "I'm for the little guy"

Hey Elon, lay off some more air traffic controllers, please, so we can feel extra safe on our next flight. And whatever you do, don't forget to suppress pandemic monitoring in Africa. Just remember in your cost cutting wisdom, though, that viruses don't respect borders. And love to mutate.

Gotta wonder what Elon thinks about his boss's completely idiotic trade war, way worse than the worldwide trade wars of the 1930's. Hey Elon, what exactly are the efficiency benefits of tariffs. Explain it so Warren Buffet would understand (he thinks they’re unbelievably stupid, change his mind !)

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

I was trying not to doom scroll today but HOLY SHIT.

I’m shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

Yup.

Yep.

Real patriots, those brave Ukrainians. And a real tragedy that our spineless republicans didnt stand up to Trump and his ilk early on. No American patriotism there. NONE.

When the Russian Navy demanded that stranded Ukrainian soldiers on an island immediately surrender or get wiped out, that famous (viral) response. “This is a warship of the Russian Navy”. To which they replied, “ Russian warships, go fuck yourselves.”

At the the dire beginning of the Russian invasion years ago, Zelinsky was offered a military flight out. And that famous reply : I don’t need a ride. I need ammunition”. Which super-inspired his troops.

Gotta love Zelinsky standing up to shakedown thugs. Brilliant choice of words: “You should be grateful. You have no cards in your hands," Vance said. “I did not come here to play cards”, Zelensky replied.

George Carlin predicted this FIFTEEN YEARS AGO! "The real owners of this country.... they're coming for your social security. And you know what, they'll get it." I remember thinking at the time, great entertainer, but a bit shrill and overblown. And HERE WE ARE ! youtu.be/fT03vCaL-F0?...

Say it isn’t so ‼️ Y’all took away the goat at the Grove ? What ? Why ? Iconic.

Tuesday Griffith 6.1 mile night hike. Wandered a bit, no particular destination. A chilly night, but lots of hikers out and about (way more than usual), usually groups of 3-5 people.

Are you getting it ? The fluorescent Fuhrer admires another Fuhrer, hence this, his favorite photo op and ‘look’. And not to forget, his ex wife said he had a book of Adolph’s collected speeches on his nightstand. Fine people on both sides, right Donald ?

Go, AOC, go ! youtu.be/CVgNJf6CsBA?...

www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-r... Total insanity “Chris Wright built his career expanding fossil fuels and denying climate science—even dismissing wildfires as ‘just hype’ while entire communities in Los Angeles were reduced to ash.”

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

Was telling a Trader Joe’s clerk the other day, “I can’t wait for $10 tomatoes. Not per pound, but EACH. “

These guys see what Murica cannot. China is the Mike Tyson of car manufacturing in the world. Already gave them the solar panel market, next up is cars. 100% tariffs ? China could sell a BYD $10,000 EV for $20,000 here. youtu.be/tRnJOVbzvC0

Interesting Roosevelt story ! youtu.be/paKKuKNgx4o?...

Ah Elon, shut the fook up already youtu.be/3cIKMsXL0yQ?...

Good summary, telling it like it is ! Countering MAGA, Republican and Drumpf disinformation. www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...

blogmaverick.com/2025/01/09/a... Mark Cuban is spot on.

Oooook this is good. I’m constantly frustrated with metric conversions. This, takes care of that. Without a google search. www.huffpost.com/entry/iphone...

www.nj.com/politics/202... Good point,Bernie! “If there is truly a major shortage of skilled tech workers in this country, why did Tesla lay-off over 7,500 American workers last year — including many software developers and engineers — while applying to hire thousands of H-1B guest workers?” .”

When parents understand that the nearby coal-fired power plant or exhaust from their car or the explosion of climate-fueled wildfires can wound their child’s mind, I believe many will demand clean energy in their homes, schools, jobs, and communities. www.wired.com/story/fossil...

The Yucca hawk on patrol.

Yucca corridor hawk in Hollywood. He regularly scopes out my balcony for careless doves. So far, hasn’t been successful. Think I read that only about 20% of Raptor attacks catch any prey. Had obvious success with the building across the street. Large flocks of pigeons no longer assemble there
