The older I get, the more liberal I become. And I’m already really old, so… Blue dots add up. Resist. No DMs from strangers, please - I won’t answer. Profile with pretty face and lots of boob and no serious posts = nope.

Just noticed another way Donald Trump has recreated the Oval Office in his own image--vulgar. Look at the top of the wall. Under Biden it was, understated and painted white. Now, under Trump, he's added cheesy gilded medallions. He's a very poor person's idea of a rich person.

I have a serious and frank question - Are we seeing more airport/ATC and aircraft problems recently, or is it more reporting?

Wild that it’s just now sinking in who actually pays for the tariffs (Hint: Small business owners, American consumers, etc.)

A Facebook post about the disappearance of honeybees in Florida (it was a Sarasota station. I’d say at least a third of replies, possibly approach a half, referred to “chemtrails” or to “spraying the skies”. And here I am, soon to spend a week in Florida. With my Gulf of Mexico ball cap.

Harris Faulkner's Fox News show has been on for 20 minutes now. She has not mentioned tariffs or stocks once and a stock ticker isn't being displayed. Strong state media vibes.

Huh. Tornado sirens this early morning in central Ohio. DOGE hasn’t disabled them, yet.

Aw crap. My exporter of nesting pebbles on Heard Island is facing financial challenges. I guess I’ll have to pass on the cost of protectionist tariffs to my customer penguins here in the US.

It’s well known that I was on The Apprentice. We were all covered by NDAs at the time, but mine has now expired. And do I ever have some tea to spill. I’ll post it later today after consulting once again with my attorneys.

Oh look, another Russian mouthpiece in the White House. Nothing to worry about here, folks.

It seems that people have called off April 1st pranks. They could be too easily mistaken for reality.

I’m re-enacting my mother, at about the same age, who would wake well pre-dawn, lean on the kitchen island and lament, “What’s happening to my beautiful country?” That, at the time of Nixon’s grotesqueries. Thank god she died long ago, to not have to endure these more grotesque trumpian days.

I get why some are freaking out that Trump said he wouldn't rule out a 3rd term. But a few things: 1. Pls understand Trump is never leaving office alive. 2. Four years is a lifetime away esp for a guy like Trump who will be 79 in a few months, has health issues and severe cognitive decline.
