Old, cis, white guy. Blue dot in a Sea Of Red. I don't follow back if all you do is repost someone else's posts or only promote your own books, art, etc. No porn bots, either.

I used to have some respect for Republicans. But then they became Republicants. Can't tell the truth. Can't get elected without cheating. Can't govern. Can't hold each other responsible. Can't be trusted. Obama broke their brain, and they abandoned their souls.

Hey? Do you feel like watching some TV commercials? Tired of actual programming? Just want to know about the newest medical products and "rewinds" of old Disney kids shows? May I suggest the HULU streaming service? You'll get almost wall to wall commercials with just a whiff of TV Show!

Just saw THE most jingoistic commercial on TV. Watching the NASCAR race, so I suppose they believe that is their audience. US forces blowing people up, showing off their expensive death dealing technology. Sponsored by WAR.gov. Yeah that's how they want us to see them. Tough guys. Fuck outta here.

Was watching Senator Chuck Grassley reading a letter from a national law enforcement association during the Blanche appointment hearings, and was struck by the fact that he could barely get through the task. In September, he will be 94 years old. Iowa? Isn't it time to send him back to the farm?

Chuck Grassley was born September 17, 1933. He is the Senior Senator from the state of Iowa.

Recent post about whether J.D. Vance should resign over being made the patsy for this debacle with Iran has me thinking. Such an action would actually show some backbone. (So, yeah - probably not something J.D. would do.) But, what I wonder is... 1/3

Guys, I think Omaha needs to be prepared for Oklahoma to be in town for the World Series for a few years. THREE freshman pitchers! Workman like attitudes.

In recognition of the Montgomery River Brawl, I'm once again asking you to "Lift every chair and swing!" (Yes, I know it didn't happen on Juneteenth.)

Ok, fellow boomers... You folks that like to say, "They haven't made any good music since... (Whatever dinosaur rock group you like.)" You need more Johnny Blue Skies in your playlist.

This is torture. Both of Nebraska's ball teams playing at the SAME TIME. My remote control is going to wear out flipping back and forth. Women up one over Texass, Men tied with ASU.
