Discussing politics with conservatives today reminds me of the saying, “you can lead a horse to water, but it’s surprisingly difficult to drown it.”

I’ve been wrestling with resentment towards those who were duped by this administration. Sometimes I just need to disconnect in order to preserve my inner peace.

So I’m half way through The Devils by Joe Abercrombie and although I’m a fan I don’t understand the criticism this has gotten. Different world, but still incredible.

So I bought a random man his breakfast at the diner the other day.
Not out of some sort of altruism, but because my son beamed him with half a banana. He may have a future in the majors.

The TACO is a great moniker. My only problem with it is that I really like tacos and have no desire to think about that nasty douche while eating.

Is targeting a specific company with tariffs legal? It seems like overreach to me. An industry maybe, but one company?

Let’s expand on the “pot boiling over” analogy. The pots our government, the flame is this administration, the smoke detector is the “woke” population and the dumbasses that are ignoring it thinking it’s a false alarm are about to get burnt indiscriminately along with the rest of us.

Our trade deal so far is no tariffs on Rolls Royces and Bentleys and our refugee policy is white South Africans only.
