Just a note for anyone, oh, I dunno, trying to claim dictatorial power over their country... The Ides of March are rapidly approaching, and that doesn't always work out well for such folks. Just sayin.'

The oval office is getting awfully crowded with all these new presidents. So far, I've counted five and I'm seriously wondering if there are any more hiding under the couch cushions. Wonder which one is going to fail the first game of musical chairs...

By confirming a completely unqualified SecDef, the Republicans show that they are not, in fact, pro-military. Obviously, this will come as a shock to no one.

I can't distill it down into few enough letters to really get into it, but posting still grabs of people waving to make them look like they're doing something they aren't doesn't change a clip of Elon doing something that he did.

Just realised that a non-zero number of the teens who lived and breathed Hunger Games are among those hyping Trump as the savior of TikTok and... You are siding with a dumber, tackier version of President Snow. As a former librarian I'm heartbroken. You didn't learn a damn thing, did you?

Going to be cold, snowy and icy here for a day or so. I realize that this is no big deal for many, many other people, but this is Texas. People barely know how to drive if it rains, so this is going to be... um... not fun, that's definitely not the word...

I do much wonder why Time didn't go with an actual photo of Trump for their cover, and went with that very... creative... artist's representation, instead.
