Asteroid Watch Party - at your place

According to one asteroid tracking site, we have another hour or so before Asteroid 2024 RW1 impacts earth's atmosphere.

If we look west toward the Pacific and Philipines, will we see anything? Will we need shades? Or did I miss all the excitement?

Asking for we puny mortals.

G.O.P. may target parakeet owners next

Top republicon strategists are no doubt concerned that they are running out of demographic groups to crap on.

They've already dishonored America's war dead, wounded veterans, Gold Star Mothers, and women, etc. etc ad nauseum.

So they may be figuring that if they attack and alienate some fringe demographic groups (like parakeet owners),
then they can count on a surge of new voters from the raging, vengeful masses who are annoyed by parakeet chirping.

Untapped rage votes. G.O.P. likely licking its lying chops.

Harris and Walz both crush CNN interview

with facts, honesty, brilliance, and good humor.

People are saying.

Allow me to spare the Felon (R) any exertions: "Whine. Unfair. Whine."

That'll be his response to his New Improved Indictments for
treason against the USA.

Suckers and losers be damned.

Dangerous G.O.P. lies about climate change

This needs to be a BIG issue. The republican lies on this are an outrageous attack on the future for America's (and all the world's children). And also the present. Flush the GOP liars down the electoral toilet.


Australia sees hottest winter temperature on record, a brutal 107 degrees

It’s the back half of winter in Australia, but blistering heat more typical of summer has overtaken large parts of the country. The southern hemisphere continent observed its highest wintertime temperature ever observed Monday, soaring to 107 degrees (41.6 Celsius) in Yampi Sound on its desolate northwest coast...

The Harris Waltz - dance craze may sweep the nation

First someone needs to write the music. Should be super easy. Then, a one, and a two...

Not the Blue Danube Waltz, but the Blue Tsunami Waltz* Something really uptempo. Can we work some drums in?

* I know his name is Walz. Cut the dancers and dreamers some slack.

Fred and Ginger show how it WAS DONE. Who will show how it WILL BE DONE?

DNC must-do ad: Joe calling out the G.O.P.'s "suckers and losers" rhetoric

President Joe was so righteous, so on target, so powerful, so enraged, so damning. So honest and eloquent.

That snippet from his Monday DNC address was the Most Powerful 40 seconds of TV I've ever witnessed. Righteous and riveting. But it came LATE at night. Many people missed it. They need to see and hear what Joe said.

That the G.O.P.'s putative "Commander in Chief" is a five-time draft dodger. That he called America's war dead, and wounded veterans "suckers and losers" is unforgiveable.

Literally: unforgiveable.

The President spoke directly about the republicon Felon/Rapist, but by implication the whole of the G.O.P. share in this unforgiveable shame. Not a one of them has said a damn thing to defend America's veterans, troops, and Medal of Honor winners. Now they are trying their swiftboat shit again on an another honorable man.

Shame on the republicons for so disrespectfully and grossly pissing on the men and women who sacrifice to protect and defend America.

Bring it home, DNC. Over and over and over with viral video clips, ads, billboards whatever. President Joe said what we are all feeling and thinking. Powerfully. Use it. Use it to defend and protect America and the troops who are on the front lines.

The G.O.P. (cult enablers and followers) need to be held to account.

The Felon is likely hatching plans to try and upstage the DNC convention

I'd be very surprised if the convicted republicon Felon/Rapist didn't try something uber-flatulent.

Of course the Felon and his republican and russian cronies will hurl personal insults, and launch misinfo and disinfo all week long. That's what they do. But come Thursday, when Kamala takes center stage, he will loose his shit like nobody's ever seen. It will be the greatest fugliest shit-loosing tantrum of all time.

What will be his publicity-stealing gambit? Probably won't involve a diaper or a couch, for that would drive home the reality of G.O.P. weirdness.

Or, more likely, will the G.O.P.'s draft dodger once again say something SuperNasty about America's war dead, veterans, grieving families, and recipients of the MOH? That kind of hateful spew gets him lots of attention, and obviously scads of silent love from republicons. We'll find out soon enough,

The G.O.P. Felon's Great and Freakily Foul Upstagement Attempt: I don't know what it is, but it is gonna be...crass.

How dare they? Videos that ask "how are you?"

So stupid. Whoever the talking head on the audio or video is, they begin by asking "how are you?" As if they gave a feather or a fig? As if there were a chance in the whole wide world you you could respond.

Hello! It's pretty much an invitation to smack your brain up against a brick wall, an invitation to frustration.

No one will hear you. No one will care. It's among the stupidest questions of all time.
