My ex is a TV comedy writer with a closet full of Emmys, making me a connoisseur of what's funny, and you're in the running for an award.
On the ominous front, with each move Trump makes seeming like he is inching up on the grandest one of all, in deploying nukes, can we have a conversation about what would get him to resign, after he fires everyone he put in office? What grand prize can we offer him, even if it makes him the richest person in the world, to stop his administration from governing us? Maybe pardon him from all crimes and give him a desert to develop?
Thanks for the high compliment. No doubt he wrote when comedy was far funnier.
I am no expert on psychopathy, but from what I understand such personalities can never be satiated. In that sense Trump can't be bought off. The cruelty gives him pleasure.
IMO, we have to hope the Democrats making noise and Republican Thomas Massie continue to press on those Epstein files. Calling our reps every day en masse to hold their feet to the fire is necessary. Ultimately a whole lot of people should go to prison for treason. Horrifyingly, that won't stop this administration from inflicting much more death and suffering on the world. Justice is slow, crime is fast.
The Epstein files hold the key to taking all of these monsters down.
Have you ever responded to what I've been posting around? How about a coup to install a presidential team? Let's say Heather Cox Richardson, Joyce Vance, Anne Applebaum, Michelle Obama, and Marianne Williamson. These are ones I follow, and there are other great women, too. And maybe more than five to do this. Just picture such warm, intelligent, and human-loving human beings leading the way. If they state that they are taking charge, so many millions would be on the streets in Washington that we couldn’t be thwarted.
Thanks, Jan. I can't guarantee dripping sarcasm from beginning to end of all my articles, but this madness really brought it out. Thanks for subscribing.
And the orange menace wonders why he wasn't awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. When he was elected, I wondered how much damage he could do in four years. We are beginning to find out.
He has a much more ruthless team this time that knows as long as he is getting richer, he'll do what they want. Project 2025 laid it out explicitly. Trump isn't the brains (obviously), he just carries the water. Many of these people want The Rapture to happen. Personally, I don't think mass murderers and pedophiles go to Heaven. This situation gets the top Albert Camus award for absurdity.
Schopenhauer, Jung, Freud, Margaret Atwood, Barbara Kingsolver, Herman Hesse, Barry Lopez, Rachel Carson, Sinclair Lewis — the list of wise voices is long and historic. We have a cumulative failure of education to lift humanity out of its worst instinctive behavior.
I understand your frustration at the new news interrupting the flow of your writing about other topics. I'm still writing a postscript to the Super Bowl and its symbolic adornments. Here I thought that the Twenty-first Century counterpart to the invasion of Poland was being postponed until the next new moon on March 19th but the oracles were wrong, our twin Emperors just couldn't wait. Looking at the bright side, as the gasoline prices rise to where I won't be able to get out very much, I'll have more time to write unless the lights go out.
Operation Epstein Fury
That would be accurate.
>>> And never mind China and Russia...
I'm sure both have subs deployed in the area.

Subs seem highly likely. Thanks for the article.

I’ve been saying for years it’s well and truly time for men to step aside !
Woman are the life givers they think more about the future for children and grandchildren’s the money and power 🤞🙏🏼
It's been a progression of more and more equality until now. We'll get back on that track and have a more feminized world, if we are here at all.
Brilliant as always. Love the wit, love you. Thank you
Thanks for the ‘truth dripping in sarcasm’ as another commenter put it. 🙏
Brilliant article! Truth dripping in sarcasm!! Can’t beat that! Will follow!! Thanks!

The rapture, the rupture. The screeching rusty noises of an overblown world order pulling apart. Indeed on Camus. And Darwin.

I had no time to write today but I threw together a vid...nothing changes Geoffrey...." bomb bomb bomb...bomb bomb Iran" 😭🤮
You're welcome to share your vid link here! It's important to grow each other.
Thanks. It's a little rough around the edges but I had to express myself before running out today!

I know the feeling. I rarely work this fast.
Crisis has a galvanizing effect. Polycrises ultimately have, for most people anyway, a paralyzing effect.

Our anti-maga cohort needs an official code name for Jared. Trump son-in law Jared is too long. I'm thinking things like strump-in-law.
