Ms. Spouse took one look at the photo I chose for the top of this post and said "werewolf drag queen story hour" and now, not only can I not unsee it, but I have to use the line in a future post, ASAP

I'm watching all these videos of Governor Walz on Instagram and I'm cracking up. 🤣 He's such a Minnesotan. You betcha!! He has his own turkey taco hotdish. We love our hotdishes. Ketchup is spicy for Minnesotans. When storms are coming, it's the cooler and lawn chairs in the driveway. We're ready. 😂 This is going to be great!!

Lisa, I agree that it is so much fun. I think you are going to love this link too. https://timwalzfixedyourbicycle.com/

You need to refresh after each time, because I have not seen all of the sayings, but I love each and every one. One of my favorites is "Tim Walz isn't afraid to ask the clerk which aisle the tampons are on." Harris and Walz have reclaimed normalcy for the Dems, and pushed the Weird label back onto the MAGAs where it belongs, and who are now a distinct part of the Republican Party, different from the Republican Voters Against Trump (RVAT) and Republicans for Harris! I have seen one group making videos about how they won't vote for Trump, and heard the other group (and there may be overlap) had one of those fundraising Zoom meetings.

I watched Walz while he was asking for help for the audience member. He never took his eyes off the guy, didn't care about the momentum of his speech being interrupted, was intently focused on the welfare of an individual in trouble, which is how I imagine a coach and military leader would behave. He is, in a word, a mensch. The other guy is a mess, but may have a future doing eye makeup tutorials.

I posted the clip on my FB page with the comment that if nothing else, Welz is the person I would want to be a heartbeat away from the presidency.

Expand full comment

I noticed that too, and I viewed it as the real normal people, and that our kids cannot even grow up learning what normal is when the MAGAs have been trying to tell us that their crazy is normal. This morning I read that Juvenile Delinquent Vance, had written the forward to a book by Kevin Roberts called, Dawn's Early Light, that is now having its publication delayed until after the election. However Media Matters had a galley copy, they tell us, "A review found Roberts rails against birth control, in vitro fertilization, abortion, and dog parks. He says that having children should not be considered an 'optional individual choice' but 'a social expectation or a transcendent gift,' and describes 'contraceptive technologies' as 'revolutionary inventions that shape American culture away from abundance, marriage, and family.' He labels reproductive choice methods as a “snake strangling the American family.'”

https://www.mediamatters.org/kevin-roberts/delayed-publication-heritage-presidents-book-reflects-project-2025-shell-game?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

That is why Walz labels them weird. Weird is the nice guy way of saying CRAZY!

Just to add to that. In the first part of Project 2025 titled White House Office, the writer, who is clearly planning on being the Secretary of State, and has pretty much set things up so that the SOS runs the entire presidency. That includes mentioning that there will be the auto Pen signatures. I noticed that right away, and could see Trump, on the golf course while Kevin Robert's henchmen places all over the White House and government autopen a list of executive orders to totally change our government. While P2025 is poorly written, and filled with whiney lies about Biden, it is a document that if you let yourself imagine what will actually happen if this is carried out, you see how they plan on turning the USA into one of Trump's favorite terms, a banana republic. Only, I don't think we are known for growing bananas so we will have nothing. Fortunately, I think like me most people are going to prefer normal to crazy and our kids can grow up recognizing the difference too.

Expand full comment

Walz is a Mensch! When I was growing up that was normal behavior, and it still is now. I teach that to my students although most of them are naturally empathetic. They are still young enough. It can get lost if they see too many ugly role models like Trump, and Juvie Vance. In fact, weird is a nice guy word for CRAZY!

another possibility for the other guy is being 47th stand-in for Wolverine's battle scenes. Otoh, he & Deadpool would kick his ass to the curb the minute he opened his mouth and they realized who he was. (Probably wouldn't keep them from making a LOT of really corny couch jokes, though lol)

Expand full comment

Watching the Detroit rally, there were calls for water or a medic 3 times that I saw & I couldn't help but think it was scripted. I sat with that a long time, the fact that, of course, speeches are scripted, & am I ok with theater? And, yeah, either way, I think I absolutely am. The message was that we care, in contrast to examples from a Trump rally. I believe that is authentic, action aligning with claims. It's a healthy use of optics. Real caring is a brand I can get behind & I believe the message to be true, giving of ourselves & respecting each other we all rise.

Expand full comment

I'm going solely by the clip of Walz, and as a former professional actor, acting teacher, and student of performance, I would bet money that was not theater and no one was acting. The Harris/Walz campaign has natural empathy going for it. They don't need to manufacture it.

Expand full comment

Small town "nice" is nothing that is learned or studied at prestigious acting schools. It's ingrained into us from birth. When you don't have the resources of big cities to take for granted, you just figure it out. You actually do care about your neighbors and don't worry that it's "weird", and you don't get wrapped up in the minutiae of the big city crap. That's what we were raised on! Eat beef! Or don't! Love a guy or a girl or don't! Good grief, we had cattle to feed America and we had storm destruction to rebuild and our friends had a farming accident that left them without a leg, so bring on the casseroles and whiskey! That's living my friends. Walz is not acting, he is the real deal. Ya'll might've missed out but now you get to know the rest of the country.

I agree. It is summer and hot. In contrast to governors in much hotter states making it illegal to keep people who work out in the heat from dying by allowing them some basic things like water and cooling off breaks (not helped by their absolute refusal to credit science with any validity), these people are normal, caring people. What our children should have as role models. No one on planet earth can think Trump is a role model for someone's children.

I respect your take. I am sorting out a lot of personal feelings around trust & it’s wild to see so much playing out in a very large arena. It seems we are collectively doing this, choosing our story. I agree, there is no need to manufacture anything, intent always comes through. Healthy discernment serves us, cynicism does not. It feels wonderful to be in such good company. Thank you!

No way it was scripted! Why would he interrupt the flow and rhythm of a great speech. If it was scripted, it would not have played out the way it did.

Expand full comment

Fwiw, he's not wearing eyeliner.

1. When a person has thick, dark eyelashes, the roots are so close together that they give the illusion of being connected -- the illusion of eyeliner. (Google for pics of the actor Nestor Carbonell.) And, jd's thick, dark beard and thick, dark hair argue for thick, dark lashes.

2. If he were wearing eyeliner, it would have smudged (from sweat under the eyes) in this heat.

3. Given his fierce hatred of and disdain for women, there's no way that he'd wear eyeliner, which is considered a feminine grooming item.

4. The MAGA base would howl with outrage if he were wearing eyeliner (there's no way that such a fact would remain hidden).

Expand full comment

1. If it looks like eyeliner, waddles like eyeliner and quacks like eyeliner, it's eyeliner.

2. Nobody cares if it's true or not. He's a loathsome douchebag who deserves every bit of derision he gets.

How the hell was he allowed to get that close to the VP's plane? Where was the Secret Service? This is stalking plain and simple and it has to be stopped.

JDork was with his own Secret Service. One of the VP’s Secret Service members walked up to Junior Dorks detail and told them to get “the Fuck out of there”. I noticed that Junior Dork’s detail moved him away after that.

Vance is an entitled bully. You can see it in the way he conducts himself and the choices/words he says. This is just a tarmac stalking of Kamala, just like Trump did with Hillary at the debate. He looked like an idiot and the SS needs to put a stop to this. I'm sure Harris will put him in his place if he continues this behavior. Most of us women can identify with that kind of male bullying behavior either in a professional and/or personal setting. We don't like it. His fellow Ohioans are watching this election too and he will have a Senate race to contend with in a few years. Watching him tells me all I need to know about the Vance marriage and his wife's role in it. The fact she is educated doesn't change the dynamics of living with an emotionally, possibly physically abusive man.

Expand full comment

I would need to research this but like Ex UK PM Rishi Sunak and wife, I suggest she inhabits the Brahmin caste within Hinduism and may have familial connections with the present ethno nationalist Hindu leader of India, Modi. If so, her support of her husband’s public entitled behaviour is no surprise.

She is from the Teluga Brahmin Caste. She's a Hindu. Vance converted to Catholicism in 2019--WTF is that all about?

Thank you for this information. The historical links between high caste Hinduism and Nazism are well documented as are those between Opus Dei extreme Catholic sects and Nazism.
