People often ask me, "Chuck, how is it you manage to get so much done and still look so dissipated?"
(Stolen from Robert Benchley, circa 1940)
Aha! Looks like he's already taken care of it (the sharing capability, that is)...? But let me know if there's anything else you need.❤️

Life these days is an endless loop of that episode of "I Claudius" where Claudius expresses his CERTAINTY--over and over again-- that the latest outrage by Caligula will SURELY awaken the Senate and restore the Republic.

For "Caligula" substitute "Trump", for "Senate", "voters", and for "restore the Republic", "finally bring us socialism."

After the failed attempt on Reagan's life, I called the 700 Club's donation line to convince the fundamentalist answering the phone that Ronnie HAD to be the antichrist--he survived an assassination attempt, as predicted in Revelations, AND there are 6 letters in each of his 3 names: Ronald Wilson Reagan=666

"Well," she replied, "If you read your bible more closely, you'll see the antichrist survives a HEAD WOUND"

Might stop laughing at the Fundies now until we see how this thing plays out

I honestly think if Abe Lincoln could have known the Union he worked so tirelessly to preserve would someday be capable of elevating a cockroach like Trump to the highest office in the land, he would have BEGGED Booth to shoot him.

Wall Street tycoon Stephen Schwarzman endorsed Trump yesterday.

He joins a growing list of billionaires who once condemned the former president but are now flocking to his campaign.

Never underestimate how quickly billionaires will sell out our democracy for tax cuts.

OK, dad-joke generating machine (AKA my brain) now out of control-- just came up with the following in a dream. Honest!

Scene: An office working on new meat substitutes. Overheard, a coworker telling a colleague about our latest experiment using horse fodder. Colleague asks if it's been tried on focus groups, triggering this response from me: "No, but it's been tested OUT IN THE FIELD!"

And the hilarity doesn't end there!

Colleague: "Did they like it?"
Me: "Oh, there were a few NEIGHS..."

So poor old Kristi Noem stumbles across the last third rail (touch it and you die) in right-wing politics: shooting a dog. (And a goat. And several old horses.)

Babies in wire cages?

Fine.

An adulterous, pussy-grabbing insurrectionist for President?

No prob!

Touch a hair on Fido's head?

You, Madam, are worse than Nancy Pelosi!!

So they've lowered Trump's bond to something even that fraudulent bastard can probably afford.

I swear, reach a certain level of worldly success in this country and the fix is in no matter who you are or what you've done-- the rich and powerful take care of their own, b'gawd!

Wouldn't be surprised to hear Jeffrey Epstein is alive and doing very well on some remote island in the Pacific...
