Descent into Darkness, part 1

I have not been posting much this week because I have been watching episodes of The Man in the High Castle. Without giving away too much of the plot, Season 3 is finding the story going more to the science fiction roots that Phillip K. Dick laid for it. That’s

So then this happened.

Even when the Pussy Grabber in chief tries to act in a restrained manner, somehow, some way, he always just fucks it up. Today of course was no exception. Donald Trump, stand-up comedian: Fitting as it is to see a truly disgusting human being mocked as he should be, the

Ramsau in Berchtesgarden

There is a LOT to talk about, most particularly Mr. Kelly’s abomination of a press conference on Thursday. He should have stayed away from the microphone and heeded some good advice about his boss. It’s practically a saying from the old country: If you elect a raging sociopath with a dead soul, don’t

273rd verse same as the first.

I had planned to write some more about my trip. But as has so often been the case this year and last-I woke up to yet another incident of domestic terrorism. The worst mass shooting yet in America. Yet another disgusting commentary on America’s inability to better itself as a

Thank God it’s Friday!

As a part of the conference I am hosting I had to go to a social event last night. After a couple of large hefeweizens, a member of our group brought up the subject of the demon that is Donald Trump. Like throwing chum in the water, I took the

Pour yourself a drink.

And watch ALL of this interview with Jon Stewart. It is awesome-especially his well crafted dissection of the talking yam, Donald Trump, and the worthless souls who support him. In fact pour yourself two drinks-and watch the whole thing:

People always let you down.

Especially people of the “Fox News Viewer” persuasion. I admit it. I am astounded American politics is where it is today. I mean really, Donald Trump is probably going to be the GOP nominee? Really? If you read any of my posts from earlier in the year-you will know that
