Kay-El's avatar

I’m not planning to be on social media if I hit 93 either. Happy birthday to Mom.

Paula Dean's avatar

I'm not planning to be sentient by the time I hit 93. I'll be amazed if I make it to 80.

Mary Greenwald's avatar

I will be! I am 81 My father's family live long and care about the world and those living in it. I will still be angry about Trump, the Republicans and those who voted for them!

Katrina Nuciforo's avatar

Good! This guy in office is stressing out the whole world taking away our good years on this planet turning them into hell. Fuck you rump. I hope you die soon. 👹🤡☠️⚰️⚱️

Clarke Shaw's avatar

My father lived to 98. I won't live that long. I inherited diabetes from Mom's side of the family. On Mom's side one cousin stroked out at 34 years old. Two uncles and grandmother died from diabetes

Kay-El's avatar

My dad died at 57, mom at 87. The odds are not in my favor for 93.

Clarke Shaw's avatar

Dad's side lived long. His father lived to 97. Dad really wanted to outlive him and did. Dad had an aunt who was record setting. She lived to 113 but was totally blind by then.

I’m retired, but will try to do my part by not spending $, unless in a locally owned, independent business. I also plan to use cash instead of a credit card.

THIS JUST IN: here's Saturday's stupid. today is Bobby Brainworms' birthday, and the Dept of Health and Human Services gave him a cake made of steak. apparently, at ten o'clock in the morning.

I shit you not.

Yeah, how about a raw meatloaf of raw chicken and raw pork. A touch of trichinosis will add some long lasting effects to all the others

The use of heat to destroy lethal bacteria is so woke. Gnaw on, MAGA.

That’s the story, Mary! Let’s tell them cooked chicken is GAY! Munchy munch munch on the sliced raw goodness!

BTW, what a perfectly heinous picture of this deranged individual. Crazy as a fucking loon. I was just watching One Battle After Another, and it made me wonder if Sean Penn could play him on SNL.

Lise Buranen's avatar

C'mon, you guys, I'm still only on my second cup of coffee (slept in a bit), and I ran out of (pasteurized) milk, so I'm already struggling here after reading about the joys of eating RAW CHICKEN! <gag> But I do hope it'll catch on with the MAGAts, no matter how you spell it.

Looks like Ivermectin might now actually be needed to de-worm humans, not just livestock.

Derek Smith's avatar

Ivermectin is the pesticide prescribed for chiggers. How do I know this? Don’t ask, but it worked.

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

Jeff-You crack me up. "I Shit You Not" has been the title of my upcoming book that I haven't written yet. It's about the foibles and bullcrap that I as a middle school principal dealt with on a daily basis. Soooo much ammo over the years.

Harriet Lunz's avatar

I worked for many years in a high school office. Shit happens you couldn't make up.

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

The biggest problem was the parents...agree?

Jennifer C's avatar

As a former long-term special education teacher, I concur!

Don't get me started on my stories...too many to share

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

I hear ya, Jennifer C!

arne link's avatar

My husband taught in middle school for years. I'm sure you have some interesting stories. In fact, the current administration must seem very familiar to you.

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

Haha! Although I didn't lead like this crazy admin. "leads". My biggest challenges were from the parents. Cuckoo!

My mom's favorite saying was, "I shit you not!" Haven't heard it in years so thanks!

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Just read in POLITICO:

VAX NOT — HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told USA Today that he hasn’t taken a flu shot since 2005. Why? He believes it might have caused his spasmodic dysphonia, the condition that strained his voice. “Do I know whether that was caused by my annual flu shot? I have no idea,” Kennedy said. “It’s a possibility. It’s a potential culprit that I cannot rule out. I can’t prove it.”

Lise Buranen's avatar

Perhaps he should rest his voice for the rest of his life, just in case.

Joe Witkowski's avatar

Might it not have been heroin or booze? The Kennedy Curse plagues the rest of us too. 😡

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

I think he was dropped on his head as a child. I can't prove it, but I cannot rule it out.

JCfromNC's avatar

Yeah, haven’t you heard? The war on protein is over. 🙄 By which they mean beef, I guess. I mean, it’s not like Americans don’t already eat more protein than almost any other nation.

Frank Nuts's avatar

I hope it was raw…and old…very old. Why not a raw turduckin as a chaser?

George A. Polisner's avatar

Thank you Jeff. I do have a nominee.

Rep. Don Bacon said: "And just on the weird chance he’s serious about invading Greenland, I want to let him know it will probably be the end of his presidency. Most Republicans know this is immoral and wrong, and we’re going to stand up against it…. I think it would lead to impeachment. Invading an ally…is a high crime and a misdemeanor.”

I mean, "Probably" end his presidency?

The GOP may have a line after all. It's a weak dotted line (also one of Speaker Mike 'Lil' Johnson's nicknames) around Greenland. In the meantime, a President participating in the trafficking, raping, and abuse of children is fine. Masked and untrained cosplay troops maiming and murdering in U.S. cities is fine. Declaring war on Venezuela or bombing Iran without Congressional authorization -sure. State-sponsored kidnapping is fine. Disregard of court orders is fine. Eviscerating barely affordable access to care is cool. Pardons for sale is good business. Betraying our allies -no problem. Destroying public health -great.

But it's comforting to know that seizing countries, particularly soon to be former NATO allies would "probably" be the end of his presidency. You know what else would end his presidency (along with everyone else)? Nuclear war and subsequent nuclear winter.

So yes, while Rep. Bacon is sizzling when he says impeachment, I find the word "probably" underscores the fecklessness of the entire GOP.

consciousegalitarian's avatar

Ok, it's like Rep Bacon has a single ball. But meanwhile, he is not running for congress again this year, and he is strongly pro Ukraine. Has he done anything to help Ukraine while T manipulated congress to delay aid while Biden was president pretending that we needed to have a strong border policy first? Then, for this year T followed Putin's directive to keep fiddlefarting around until winter came again. So that Putin could take out energy plants and the citizens are freezing in 0 degree temps. We have seen this unfolding in real time. Like watching a train wreck. Feeling infuriated and helpless. But Don Bacon is NOT helpless. He's a Republican member of congress. DO SOMETHING!!

J Glaspie's avatar

"[P]robably" the end of his presidency.

"Most Republicans know this is immoral and wrong, . . ."

"I think it would lead to impeachment."

Not very definitive, is he?

George A. Polisner's avatar

Yes. Very similar to Susan Collins-speak. Jello nailed firmly to a tree.

Lise Buranen's avatar

Oh dear, perhaps we should be concerned.

Christine Zepka's avatar

But will the rethugs really do the right thing?!

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

I saw this statement too. So, hey, Bacon, it seems a foregone conclusion that the US will, indeed, invade. So what will you cowards do to avoid getting to this point? You have no plan. Terrified pu**ies.

🌷IntheHalloftheMtnKing's avatar

Exactly. No one is coming to save us. We have to save ourselves.

Frank Nuts's avatar

Nailed it George! And all the republican’’ts will join in with a rousing chorus of “Yes, we don’t think that would be a good idea”.

So brave are they!

And as they are swirling around the drain of extinction they’ll be shouting “BUT HER EMAILS!” “BEN GAZI!” “SLEEPY JOE!”

“DAMN THE TRUTH (whatever that is) WE WERE RIGHT!”…

dead right

Lauralite's avatar

I'd like to remind everyone that we MUST play by Portland rules. Absolutely no violence, threats, or intimidation. Sing, dance, organize a naked bike ride, but don't give the fascists license to invoke the Insurrection Act. (Admittedly, Minneapolis is a wee bit chilly for a naked bike ride. )

Richard Von Busack's avatar

Agreed. Remember whose birthday it is on Monday, and how he prevailed.

Chicky Mama's avatar

I just listened to the entire ‘Mountaintop’ speech given by Dr. King this morning. It gave me chills. It was his last speech

Cindy Watter's avatar

Yes, it’s my favorite speech of his. Dr. King was murdered when I was in high school. I am amazed at how few people realize he was killed by a white supremacist. Hampton Sides wrote a book about the hunt for the assassin, “ Hellhound On His Trail.”

Babe Paley's avatar

That is one of my favorite books, and I reread it every year. It's really well done and told me stuff I didn't know (I was born 5 years after the assassination). Ray's time on the run and ultimate capture was something I totally didn't know.

Cindy Watter's avatar

James Earl Ray was captured on the day RFK was buried, and I think the pre-cable news cycle couldn’t cover it properly. That was a terrible year.

cablecargal's avatar

Thanks! Just requested the book from the library.

KP Johnson Austin, TX's avatar

I'd also like to point out that in Texas, we all celebrate Confederate Heroes Day which, coincidentally, lands on Dr. King's birthday this year. It's so warped.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

Surprised Shitler hasn't renamed MLK Day as MILK Day.

Charles Austin's avatar

They're going to do it anyway. So fuck it!

Lauralite's avatar

I'd like to think that even more people would be outraged or at least alienated if Shitler acted against peaceful protest.

Fastball Fredo's avatar

🧊 out in force on metro Phoenix. Arresting our Native Americans, Navaho members going to work. Arresting our Latino population for the crime of driving and being Brown.. This is absurd.. this crew just doesn’t care about wrecking lives, wrecking our local economy.

HI2thDoc's avatar

They wreck lives with glee, so strong is their hatred and bigotry

Jan Moon's avatar

Do these moron Feds even know the meaning of NATIVE, as in Native American? And they can't ask Vampire Miller. He doesn't care.

These dopes weren’t sure Hawaii was a real state, so…no.

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

My sister in law once asked what currency do they use there (Hawaii) and she is definitely a GOPer.

arne link's avatar

Are they going to round up native Hawaiians next? They are kinda brown.

rlritt's avatar

Miller should be careful. They are now promoting, "Hitler wasnt such a bad guy." revisionist history. Trump just might need a scape goat.

Fastball Fredo's avatar

As all of my community knows..it all comes down to the Jews… After the government demands from U of Penn to submit the contact information on all Jews attending and the profs and teachers.. well, this is only the beginning… and folks are asking me if I have a travel bag packed…🤮

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

I’m guessing Miller will find himself at The Hague…

Martha Howell's avatar

Maybe the lawyer for the man accused of Kirk's assasination should argue that he's not guilty because Kirk is only dead *in this dimension.*

arne link's avatar

Excellent defense and probably unique under the law.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Fun fact: Clostridium perfringens causes what is known as gas gangrene, where your tissues turn necrotic, necessitating excision/amputation or death. A bacterial metaphor for MAGAts

Jan Moon's avatar

Be kinda tricky to amputate or excise the entire digestive tract. Maybe it would be better to simply amputate the head before wasting a chicken.

Scott Gilbert's avatar

"loyal MAGA super-patriots, help me out. jacking off two invisible giraffes, is that gay?"

No, that's animal husbandry.

But Trump is on his knees jacking off Putin and Netanyahu, and THAT'S gay.

Paula Dean's avatar

I think you mean 'beastiality', because 'husbandry' means you raise and take care of animals.

Daniel M Kimmel's avatar

Reminds me of the Tom Lehrer line about the man who practiced animal husbandry "until they caught him at it one day."

Scott Gilbert's avatar

He's extracting semen to fertilize giraffe ova?

arne link's avatar

I believe there must be some gay action in the Trumpstein files and that's why they won't be released. Magats would accept murder but not gay acts.

Joe Witkowski's avatar

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/style/gay-men-trump-administration-republicans.html

MAGA accepts lots of gay. Remember, hypocrisy is their blood sport. Similar to the Vatican.

Scott Gilbert's avatar

Supposedly he's paid off parents of two preteen boys. Supposedly.

Kathy H's avatar

no doubt. sexual abuse isn't gay action, rape is about control, but I'd bet any amount of money it's in there & probably not as easily passed off as "liking them on the younger side".

Patrick Daniels aka Cromulent1's avatar

Been enjoying this thought for a long time Arne, blowing Bubba is a curious notion that Bannon and Putin have knowledge of!

Grace Kennedy's avatar

I thought it was wifery.

SethTriggs's avatar

If Joe Biden had forgotten Machado's name it would've been a week-long crisis.

Also LOL she left with a gift bag after giving him a ticky tacky frame containing her Nobel medal and the pricktator forgot her name? OMG that's amazing! So yet another person who thinks they're going to win by debasing themselves for the pricktator. It's absolutely amazing.

Hey isn't it funny how many times you see 'Christian' conservatives defending Hitler? That's really weird innit?

Margaret MacKenzie's avatar

What’s crazy about this meme, besides Brian May being in it, is do the maggats really think Charlie would be playing guitar in heaven with a gay man who died of AIDS and fronted band called Queen?

s.Michael Morgan's avatar

It’s known that one of the factors that led to the fall of the Roman Empire was their use of lead water pipes, causing sterility and death. So keep eating raw chicken MAGA and wash it down with a big glass of raw milk.

BluDotInARedSewer's avatar

I think he meant random stops of Black people. Speaking of which, i read a piece about how a newspaper (maybe the nyt but I’m not positive) pulled traffic citations in some city and it turned out that after dark, the number of stops of Black drivers fell off the cliff. ‘Shocking,’ said absolutely no one.
