Well….the ceo of Uber today announced he was leaving the position of advisor to the trump administration, saying that he didn’t want his helping trump to be seen as endorsing trump or his agenda…and now you can start laughing….he was perfectly fine with trump until the illegal immigration order that hurt Uber’s business when they tried to take advantage of a taxi strike in New York….what a disingenuous load of crap….the ceo, Travis Kalanick, is backpedaling so fast his shoes are smoking and it is only that he is losing money from the #deleteuber movement…not that he doesn’t agree with Trump and probably voted for him….as the rest of the assholes who have anything to do with this racist, white supremacy driven administration….you just can’t take things back when you were perfectly fine with trump and never said a word before the election…so, still delete your Uber app and use Lyft instead….
The weakest president ever?
Well…as more and more world leader interact with the idiot trump, they are getting the picture of the weakest, most erratic president the US and the world has ever seen….he is revealing that he is all bullshit and bluster and so damn stupid and ignorant that he is already being taken advantage of…just take a look at what Russia did within hours after trump got off the phone with Putin. After lifting sanctions from the Russian secret service, the FSB; what used to be the KGB, and giving Putin a gift, Russia sent troops into the Ukraine…something that trump said would never happen “on his watch” and what the stupid people that voted for him thought they were going to get….how tough is it to let your adversary get and do anything they want? The kicker in this whole Russian relationship with trump is that the recording of the phone call with Putin magically disappeared so no one really knows what trump promised Putin or whether the phone call was to thank Putin for electing him…or maybe it was to set the terms of the bribe that Russia paid to make sure there would be no action when they did invade the Ukraine? The swamp keeps filling and trump is the slime on top….
Trump is truly insane…
Well….if you haven’t already seen evidence that trump is mentally ill, I’ll give you a couple more little bitty pieces to that puzzle. Over the weekend, the idiot in chief threatened the president of Mexico with sending in American troops to take care of the “bad hombres” down there since the idiot doesn’t think the Mexican army can handle it…yep, he really did say that…and then, that not being enough, on a call to the PM of Australia, the idiot started freaking out and yelling at him since we have an agreement to take in a few hundred refugees…and trump went off and yelled that he didn’t want them to send us more “Boston bombers”… but that was not even the best of it…he then hung up on the PM in a huge snub to one of our staunchest allies in the world. Now, this kind of behavior is surely an impeachable offense since it is evidence that trump truly is mentally ill…come on repubs, dust off the 25th amendment and get to work…the world can’t take much more of this….
February 2nd
Well…running really late today with getting up a little late and then having to do the grocery run….it’s kind of a pain to not be able to do my normal routine in the morning and I feel like something is off from it….I did make some cash yesterday and got to see T for happy hour and that was a lot of fun…nice to have cash for the next month in the drawer…..and I am going to make a little more this morning….slept okay last night but I am having some problems with the earplugs hurting my right ear so that is a little troubling since I do need to use them….might just have to use another pair….don’t have a lot to do today after I run my errand this morning…I should clean but might wait until the weekend…I am going to make tacos for lunch and I bought some avocados to make guac and chop some to put on the tacos….just sounds good…more later….
Another one for the B-3 count
Well….just stopped for the first time today and came across John Mayer and Buddy Guy on AXS…I know I have cited Buddy before but I know I haven’t with Mayer…so, add another one to the B-3 count…
This is weird…
Well…nothing about politics right now just a weird thing that happened to me as I was running errands this morning…was out on the e-way and “Country Girl” by Neil Young came on and it immediately flashed me back to listening to the same song at this time of the year in my 1965 Ford Galaxie back in 1971….flying along the e-way just like this morning…and if you remember the heaters in Fords of the period, itwas much like the marginal one in the Miata and you always had to dress for the winter, even inside the car….kind of a weird flashback but it did make me smile….
February 1st
Well…it was a good day yesterday and I got to hang out with my youngest son for a while and catch up….and I made a little cash so that was cool, too….the allergies are really bad this morning and I think I’ll have to go out and get more allergy stuff today or tomorrow….just feel worn out again this morning and I think it’s the combo of the allergies, not eating enough, and bad sleep…..so today will be a veg day while I try to rectify all of that…other than lunch with T, that is…..the coffee needs to start working pretty soon or I’m going to take a nap….not going to do a lot today feeling like I do…hope it’s not a bug…more later….
Another reason to kick DeVos to the curb…
Well….if another reason was needed to reject Betsy DeVos for Ed Sec, over and above her ignorant performance in her hearings and her avowed hatred of public education, that reason came yesterday in her written responses to questions put to her by the senate….and guess what? The answers were rife with plagiarized passages and one senator went so far to say that the entire thing looked like it was just cut and pasted and had no original thought in it at all…and she used the tired old repub tricks of delaying the submission until the day before the confirmation vote so the senators don’t have time to go through it thoroughly. With all of the baggage this idiot brings, worst of all her ignorance of public education policy, there is no way that any senator from either side of the aisle should vote for her….but the repubs don’t care about the kids of this country…only power….so they’ll fall in line and vote for her money….which appears to be her only qualification…..
January 31st
Well….they finally came to clean the dryer yesterday so that makes my life a lot easier today…..and they fixed the broken vent pipe so it shouldn’t fill the place up with moisture when I run it…might have to test that out today…slept okay last night but feel sore again today but I think it’s working out as the morning goes on…..looks like I won’t be on the bike in the near future with all the snow so it’s back to calorie restriction for me for now….have been doing okay lately with that so it will probably be no big deal……they are clearing the lots here now but I refuse to clean my car and move it this early….just too darn cold and I haven’t had any coffee yet….maybe later….don’t have a lot to do today but clean the bathroom so it looks like an easy one…more later….
Trump is scared of toddlers now?
Well…if this latest bit of news doesn’t spur huge waves of outrage, you have no feelings…the latest news from trumps’ illegal immigration crackdown is that agents doing trump’s bidding in DC put a toddler in handcuffs…yep, this regime has no dignity or sense of right or wrong..who the hell handcuffs toddlers because they are scared that they are terrorists? To compound this outrage, trump’s press secretary tried to justify this outrage by saying: “to assume that just because of someone’s age or gender or whatever that they don’t pose a threat would be wrong”….a toddler, a five year old is a threat? What kind of chickenshit bs is this? Not in our name trump….you WILL NOT handcuff toddlers in the name of protecting us from them…you are one heartless, psychopathic bastard and you need to go…anyone reading this, join the resistance, write and call your representatives and tell them that handcuffs on toddlers is unacceptable and they should start impeachment proceedings today….
