oh uh, I've been informed that Gary Peterson is a parody account. I STAND BY MY FLAWED REPORTING.

the rest of that weird fan art is real, tho

MzNicky in East Jesus, TN's avatar

Gary Peterson, who’s hilarious, will probably see this as a compliment, Jeff!

Kate's avatar

I had a feeling it HAD to be! But honestly it was a bit hard to tell until I read the comment…that is how crazy the real ones have gotten!

Suki Herr's avatar

I agree. Having recently left Twitter (X), I was no longer able to distinguish between parody&what Trump ppl were saying

TCinLA's avatar

Parody and snark are difficult with the times and the news being what they are now.

bruce somers's avatar

There definitely needs to be a 'sarcasm' emoji.

P123Sunny's avatar

I think it’s something that can hurt the ‘real data’ ppl myself… when EVERYTHING gets squishy :/

Brenda K's avatar

The Stupid Singularity resulting from the merger of the Lamestream Media with tabloid trash + The Onion just keeps getting more..."singular"??? I can't even wrap my head around it and don't even try anymore.

Rebecca Elliott's avatar

SIGH...I haven't left X YET, however, they no longer email their list out (or not to me), so I rarely go there unless I see a link in one of my other political sites. I think I've been on X twice in three weeks, and only for ONE "Xeet" at a time. Don't much miss it.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

You know the "x" is pronounced as "Sh".

Chris Hierholzer's avatar

With so much shit being flung around its easy to...whatever. let's not forget jizz cups. Wish it was not true but...

I have an idea to raise $ for the legal fund…. Gold Flip Flops with the American flag on the bottom… perfect for your trip to the redneck Riveria… $350 for a limited edition signed by the Fat Felon himself !!! Made in CHINA of course…

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

Narrator: They were dollar-store flip-flops spray painted gold.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I think the "Straightriotism" was a clue

steve robertshaw's avatar

Yes! That's what MAGA art seems to be saying! How did it take so long for this interpretation of M A G A 's true meaning, based on the fan art? I hope every weird fake muscle picture and tweet and NFT and digital Trump Trading Card image posted online from here onward has this response from the public commenters. "MAGA - Make America Gay Again" needs to catch on starting now!

bruce somers's avatar

I think I typed 'that's gay-est I've ever seen' 3 times,but stopped,holy shit, that's looks a Grindr profile....

steve robertshaw's avatar

Very clever MAGA saying, it just seems so obvious in retrospect. If your saying spread, just imagine how every Bubba wearing his red MAGA hat would start wondering "God, I hope these people around me don't think I'm gay". It could literally end the movement!

bruce somers's avatar

Dude,you're probably wearing a diaper over Confederate long underwear,and a tampon on your head, being gay also is the least of your problems.

Ethereal Fairy's avatar

The fan art has been homoerotic for years!

Brenda K's avatar

The double entendre is compelling.

Declan's avatar

Yeahh.....I'm gonna have to send a tweet to that *sshole...

Elizabeth Ellis's avatar

I think “the best pair of workout jeans” sealed the parody for me🤪

Mary Schweitzer's avatar

Hey, given his “trading cards,” and his adoration of Putin with his shirtless-on-horseback pic, this wasn’t that far from what Trump posts.

Doc Blase''s avatar

This is the real thing here: https://collecttrumpcards.com/

How is it in any way different from the "parody"?

These people are nucking futs.

Carol JLH's avatar

Gary Peterson's fan-ody art has been taken down but it remains the best candidate for a caption contest I've seen in a while.

Elizabeth Ayer's avatar

Yes, you should seek him out. The more absurd, the better, is Gary’s approach.

antlisa1201's avatar

It looks like Jelly Bean's is too. At least to me. Musk looks so puny, they all look small and weird. Musk's head is actually weird, but he looks disproportioned here, Plus the 3 laughing emojis seem more like he's laughing at the statement rather than at Harris' take-down, like he's saying "yeah, right. As if." Just my opinion.

bruce somers's avatar

Musk is so white Don Jr. might try to snort him.

antlisa1201's avatar

Guess I'm wrong. Fred's got a weird video of trumpf and worm brains dancing in sync under a disco ball, He's serious. Seriously loves them, yikes,

Marie Drozdis's avatar

How can anyone tell if Musk's head is disproportioned? It always looks 'unusual' to me.

Bikracer's avatar

The thing about good satire is that it just barely passes what could be true. Unfortunately with f***head anything goes so how would you know unless told?

Michael Green's avatar

Your reporting is still less flawed than theirs. By the way, you grew up where my mother did, a few years ahead of you!

Lady Tavestock's avatar

Even after telling me that Gary Peterson is a parody account I had to do my own research!!

Susan Niemann's avatar

That fan art. 😍. I need smelling salts . 😂😂😂😂. Walz was right -these people are weird AF.

My first job was a fast food place...later becoming a Hardees. Then I ran an ad agency for 32. None of my clients ever held that against me. The press is killing us.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

The delusion is real! Anyone who looks at tfg and sees that needs a rubber room. He really looks more like a pasty white slug.

Susan Niemann's avatar

OK Sharon. That visual will be in my brain all day. Thanks a lot! 😂😂😂😂😂

Karen Livolsi's avatar

Sorry to hear, Sue.

I’m stuck with the fan art looking like RFKJr and TFG secretly wishing to cross slime trails. Talk about coming, I mean being out there!

Donatella  Dillon's avatar

They are obsessed with bare chests and muscles they never had🤣🤣

Bikracer's avatar

Yes and that is so weird!

Karen Hall's avatar

Eew. Mine too. 🤮🤣

bruce somers's avatar

Straightriots?? Are they trying to convince themselves of that?? Before they make out??

Sharon C Storm's avatar

You’ll be fine, I’ve had that stuck in my head for quite a while. It’s been there ever since I saw a “photo” of tfg and the space nazi in swim shorts a few months ago.

Susan Niemann's avatar

😂😂 Oh, yes....The space nazi in swim trunks. YUK! Love ya, lady! ✌️

Sharon C Storm's avatar

Love ya back, Susan! 🥰

Teri's avatar

Ewww! That's 🤢🤢

Kay-El's avatar

Trump never looked like that even in his younger days. Also, Tom of Finland’s work is better.

Dr J's Sanity Space's avatar

I just read about this "high-definition liposuction" that Brazil's plastic surgeon's are doing- he should consider that though they may not have enough fat containers for his blubber!!

Teri's avatar

What's wrong with picture #3? Does RFK Jr suffer from tiny or no hands syndrome? 😂

Linda Weide's avatar

Yes. It did remind me of Tom of Finland and I thought that was the reference.

My first job was burger Man at Burger King, my second was a rendering plant for industrial grade lubricants. Never once put them on resume.

Dave Drell's avatar

I think LDFF & RFK need some industrial

lubricants!

bruce somers's avatar

That's what they use on the thumbs.

Dee Whitman's avatar

With respect, you can't blame that on legit press -- the Free Beacon isn't even fit to line a cat's litter box.

I'm pretty fed up with a lot of legit media these days, but they're still somewhat useful -- and they're leagues better than the pukes who dug up Harris's application for that post.

Old Man's avatar

You mean there is such a thing as ‘legitimate media’? Good to know…

Doc Blase''s avatar

France 24, sometimes BBC, The Guardian (usually).

bruce somers's avatar

I sometimes do the BBC and Sky News.

Old Man's avatar

Yeah, the Guardian is perhaps one of the last ‘legitimate media’.

bruce somers's avatar

ProPublica and Frontline are still doing some real journalism,even the NYT,but you have to get through a few editoral pages first,and find some real journalism buried in the back pages.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

I subscribe to the Guardian, it usually has the most straightforward reporting.

Janine Johnston's avatar

My first job was detasseling 🌽. Yeah, never put that on my resume 🙄

D Kitterman's avatar

Loran's avatar

My first jobs were babysitter and lawn mower - I moved on to clam digger, bartender, bouncer and scallop fisherman and then on to computer programmer...I don't bother to list babysitter, lawn mower, clam digger and scallop fisherman on my resume`

Music Mama's avatar

I worked at Fosters Freeze one summer in high school, and at a Taco Bell for three days in college before I landed a better paying job stuffing envelopes. I confess that I failed to list these jobs on my attorney resume.

Stephen Brady's avatar

In HS, I worked as a bellboy at HoJo's Motor Lodge and did wash and fold in a coin laundry... listed both on my application and still got accepted to 2 medical schools.

Dr J's Sanity Space's avatar

I worked at a department store for a few months in my first year at Gard school but I confess that does not appear on my psychologist's resume ... (shame ensues on my face)lol

Kay-El's avatar

Fosters was a favorite in my youth. I would hire you based on that. 😂

Kristy Kanen's avatar

Chocolate dipped 😋

Music Mama's avatar

LOL, good to know!!!

Gail Cohen's avatar

You literally made me lol.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

I snipped threads in a Sweat shop when I was 14 & had a work permit. It was one of my first jobs. It was an eye opening experience.

bruce somers's avatar

I worked every summer and vacation between age 9 and 16,and received my newspapers for delivery every day at 4:30 am,the papers and to be assembled correctly.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

Oops , I forgot I worked at the short lived Pup -N - Taco 😬

Dave Drell's avatar

As Drumpf would say:

YOU’RE FIRED!!!!

Hannah's avatar

Well, it's high time to receive your punishment. I must confess however, I never listed my job sewing hippie clothing to sell at Pier1 Imports. Paid by the garment.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

Dang , I did that for a Swap Meet in Santa Monica. Oh, yeah, I was a roller skating sexy clown for Trashy Lingerie, famous Hollywood store

My sister worked as seamstress there. Damn, I've had a lot of jobs.

arne link's avatar

We need photographic evidence of the sexy clown. My sister's wedding dress was made by Trashy Lingerie. It was beautiful, Victorian and not trashy at all.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

My sister made ALL the Victorian stuff, it was her specialty, I had a beautiful set. I wish I had pictures !

Ann Anderson's avatar

Good run-down as always, Jeff, but this week I award you ALL THE BONUS POINTS for Nanette Fabray.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I was reallllly hoping for gay-hating Anita Bryant. Damn. She's still here

Doc Blase''s avatar

Always reminds me of that scene in Airplane when Leslie Stevens says, "I haven't seen anything like this since the Anita Bryant concert".

Richard Von Busack's avatar

Hey man, everyone knows Singin' in the Rain is the GOAT film musical, but bro, what about The Band Wagon, running a very close second?? Fabray resepect!

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

I was thinking Epstein, now that would explode into implications and aggravations. In reality there is no news there, cliff hangar if you will.

Marlene Lerner-Bigley (CA)'s avatar

Nanette has to be resurrected from the dead and quickly!

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

That is kind of the ‘go to’ answer for me as well but have sightings gone way down and we are just behind? By the way get a job you dirty hippie and start with a haircut! There’s one I’ll bet you’ve heard, I’m in the same category.

Hannah's avatar

Ann, was Nanette related to Shelley? Shelley was on some TV show in the 60's.

Ann Anderson's avatar

Yes, Nanette was Shelley's aunt. Shelley spelled her name the French way, Fabares. She started on the Donna Reed Show and worked non-stop for decades.

Fastball Fredo's avatar

Good Morning Jeff, let’s talk The J6 Gala at a roach infested golf motel in Bedminster NJ…. First off little fuckface is unable to attend since he’s out on probation and is unable to associate with convicted criminals. Second, why celebrate terrorists and criminals, some of whom attacked law enforcement on J6? Thirdly I must ask…. Why didn’t Osama bin Laden hold a gala in NY to celebrate? or why didn’t Jefferson Davis have a gala in Virginia for his confederate traitors? I’m not sure how much lower Donald can go, outside of calling our VP “shit” at his rally last night.. Best to you and all fellow travelers.

Sandy K.'s avatar

Not to worry there will always be “a new low” with DJT. Having a J6 gala/fundraiser and desecrating Arlington National Cemetery were not on my bingo card. Clearly I need to think more creatively.

Old Man's avatar

What will be the NEW next low? I always have trouble imagining it.

Kate's avatar

He called her “shit”—really!? I’m sure there will be some half assed explanation/gaslighting for that soon…jesus.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

Fecal Stain said everything Harris touches turns to shit. He was projecting again.

arne link's avatar

Wow, really? I thought the whole "sleeping your way to the top" was about as low and classless as he could go.

Hannah's avatar

Fredo, I think tRump will/did associate with J6 felons. No one would do a damn thing about it. Law enforcement isn't watching him. He does what he pleases. We all know he is hardly held accountable and when he is, he ignores the consequences.

Just saying.

Dee Whitman's avatar

Fredo, please fact-check before you post -- non-MAGAts have to uphold high standards and be accurate. :)

He said: "They believe in an ideology and – if you look at Kamala and you look at what she’s done to every place she’s touched has turned to shit."

Thanks for the clarification!

antlisa1201's avatar

Impotus Americanus lol - Clever adding to "potus" and ending in "anus", Seriously though, I would like to see him devoured by a shark. Imagine the scene in Jaws of Quint's demise and you'll see what I mean.

arne link's avatar

Yeah, but Quint was likeable and quite entertaining. Unlike the fecal stain.

Teri's avatar

Thx for sharing, Dee!

Derek Smith's avatar

"...earthling earbuds don’t fit snugly into your weird lizard ear-holes. maybe you should have packed your own before leaving your home planet."

Tears running down my cheeks with mirth. Jeff.

SeekingReason's avatar

Derek, same here! Weird lizard ear-holes seemed like such a suitable description though! 😂

Tess's avatar

Jeff-you definitely need a vacation from the news. The photos themselves are enough to make a person sick…but then, being the great person you are…you read and write the shit that these idiots say (or don’t say!) so the rest of us don’t have to (but certainly pleased to be disgusted with it!) lol

Please take a day off before you go crazy-we all love you! lol. Have a great Labor Day weekend everyone!!!

Teri's avatar

Agree! Jeff, take Labor Day off. We appreciate you. 🇺🇸

Old Man's avatar

I suggest Jeff take only half the day off on Labor Day. I need my fix!

Mark Slattery's avatar

Walz cheating on Scout?(and probably with a real bitch) Kamala betraying Ronald McDonald? I don't know what to believe anymore.

Phyllis Bishop's avatar

These images are so obviously homoerotic that it’s downright laughable how obsessively these same conflicted old men demonize homosexuality.

Ingrid Robertshaw's avatar

My 1st job in the US was cleaning house for a rich family in Jenkintown,PA. When I applied for the job ,the lady of the house said." but you are not colored". Having immigrated very recently I looked at her in complete WONDER...she says.." all my friends have colored girls and it might look funny because you are white"..I was so mixed up . I assured her that I could clean...Reluctantly she gave me the job..I am still disturbed about that day. I had many. other jobs after that..none ever had to tell me I am white,educated,and never cared what kind of color MOTHER NATURE GAVE ANYBODY..Now,64 years later I understand a heck of a lot more about how some Americans still are thinking like that rich lady in Jenkintown,Pa..

Dave Drell's avatar

You’re taking black jobs, Ingrid!!!!!

HI2thDoc's avatar

Rich white lady was super racist and I would bet big bucks that she did not think she was.

My uncle, who lived in LA from the 50s until the late 80s told me it was a status symbol for wealthy white people to have a Japanese (which we are) yard man. So kinda racist but not as bad as your situation.

Hannah's avatar

I remember when it was a status symbol to have a Japanese gardener. My mother hired only black women to iron. I really hated the racism as a kid. Just knew it was wrong.

TCinLA's avatar

Now they're Vietnamese.

Robert Eckert's avatar

No no, you have Vietnamese women do your fingernails

TCinLA's avatar

Well, the guy who runs the gardening crew that takes care of Le Chateau du Chat (my house) is Vietnamese and former ARVN. We have a lot we talk about.

Teri's avatar

WOW! Sorry you had that experience.

The Last Moderate Standing's avatar

Who knew Donny and Bobby Jr. had such a gay vibe going? Maybe the “TikTok people” from Trump’s ridiculous statement after his Arlington fuck-up.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

Please, I think JD is Gay D.

arne link's avatar

I agree. There is something two-way about him. Not that it's a crime, but own it honestly and don't hide behind your religion and your wife.

Declan's avatar

Well I don't know bout Robert K Jr. but I'm convinced Ds partner in crime at Mara Lago does more than polish his balls....

Mingo's avatar

My senior year in high school 1972, I worked my first job at the now defunct Burger Chef chain. It was in Tempe AZ across from ASU and I couldn't be more thrilled because I got to meet college boys. I never put that on my resume and nobody ever asked me if I knew how to sling burgers or count change.

Jeff, here's an interesting story that was on the front page of the AZ Republic this morning. The GOP and CPAC wants to monitor ballot drop boxes to identify people who they believe are illegal voters all in the name of quelling skepticism from right leaning voters. Question, what does an illegal voter look like? How can you tell? More fuckwittery from Maga assclowns. I'm leaving you breadcrumbs.

Charles Austin's avatar

Burger Chef. We ate there a lot when I was young.(Lima,Oh.)

Susan Niemann's avatar

We had a Burger Chef in Quincy, Illinois! Now it's a Walgreens. 😂

Charles Austin's avatar

The food was good, and more reasonable than McDonald's.

Susan Niemann's avatar

I seem to remember that....been a long time!

Diana Hembree's avatar

Let's see...As a teenager and in college, I worked at Mr Donut, Dunkin Donut, Huddle House, Pizza Hut, Beef Block, The Cauldron, and Amy's; picked strawberries, oranges, tomatoes and grapefruit in Florida; served as a writing tutor and a camp counselor; played violin in a mariachi band; and worked on a town's alternative newspaper and a college newspaper. Guess which three items I put on my resume when I applied for my first 'real' journalism job and then worked as a reporter and editor ever since. I met great people at nearly all my gigs, though, which turned out to be great fodder for series on work hazards, sexual harassment on the job, and more.

Diana Hembree's avatar

PS The mariachi gig was my absolute favorite -- playing with such terrific musicians and great guys/women from Mexico and California was a joy and a real honor.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

I worked at ARBYS , when I was 17, they had

" the MEATHEADS " I experienced horrible sexual HARRASSMENT, by management & customers.

Diana Hembree's avatar

So sorry to hear that. I never experienced harassment from customers, but there were a couple of managers who harassed the waitresses -- putting a hand under their shirts, giving unsolicited neck massages, etc. I got laid off after I told one to keep his hands off me.

Kristy Kanen's avatar

I also worked at the Improv on Melrose.The EVENING AT THE IMPROV shows were the most fun.I got to perform once & produced HAMLET IMPROVISED at a small theatre that Bud & Mark ( the owners ) bought next door.

Diana Hembree's avatar

How cool!! What an amazing experience...Many writers, producers, playwrights and actors, in fact, started their working experience in the restaurant or hotel industry as waiters/waitresses, domestic workers, etc., in addition to other day other jobs ...https://experteditor.com.au/blog/the-surprising-day-jobs-20-famous-authors/

When I was on the Pyramid, like all the other unknown actors who did game shows, you couldn't say you were an actor, I had to say " I'm a server at a steak house ".

Laura Boatner's avatar

I think the artwork of the three walking away from the American flag inferno IS symbolic, but it’s symbolic in a different way. It looks symbolic of them radically scorching our America to the ground..bending it to their will so that we no longer recognize it. Harris could use it in an ad.
