That’s kind of you. Turns out that both knees are worse than we thought. I’m doing more PT so the new right knee will be better supported. I’m getting my news from podcasts on YouTube. What a mess. It’s a good thing there is so much stupid.

I see that you know your stuff. They say the knee will be made of Titanium. The 1st thing I thought about was whether it had a tariff.😁I just bought a desk from Vietnam & beat the tariff by a few days. The marches today should be great. I hope you have fun plans! 😊🇺🇸

2. Today alone is so insane. I got my news today on YouTube & PBS. I don’t want to come on here if I’m crabby.😉 I know that you’ll take care of the place. Maybe I won’t stay crabby 😊. You take care!

1. Since everything else is insane, I may as well get a titanium knee. According to all of the info they’ve given me, it’s a minimum three month rehab. They are actually going to come to my house for the 1st few weeks. So I get to watch everyone else march. Lots of watching TV. 🫤

2. It looks like some great stuff is happening now. Roku has a 24 hr tariff channel today. Good, let people see what happens. I’ll be around.

1. Renee, thanks for asking.
Unfortunately I really screwed up & I need knee replacement surgery (any day now.) The painkillers made it tough to read.😵💫 Also, I started to get depressed about the leaked war plans, illegal deportations, etc. So I was only getting the news on YouTube.

I was looking at gang members and tattoos. I haven’t been on here much. I want to take a look at this. It’s new to me. I’m throwing stuff at the TV when I hear the name “Greenland.”

At least, for now, a court is preventing more of this.

More: Judge Beryl Howell denied the Trump admin's request to step aside from handling the lawsuit over Trump's EO targeting the Perkins Coie law firm, with some choice words about DOJ's "rhetorical strategy of ad hominem attack"

Does he really think the FBI did January 6th? Or does he just willingly tell the lies that keep him in Trump's good graces?
Distinguishing lies from plain old idiocy is difficult in Trump World.🤷♀️
