I feel like they’re waiting for Marge to have a disapproving response to something and instead she’s just disengaged and a bit apathetic. And doesn’t react. They realise something is really wrong. For the life of me I can’t remember the subject.
Oooofff, thanks for pointing that out!! Yikes - Birth of a Nation, dead in the water, terrible suggestion, strike it from the record, definitely don’t use that.
Birth of a Nation, Fledgling Nation
Edit: kind soul pointed out the shitty connotations of Birth of a Nation, definitely do not call it that!
His Mar a Lago makeover is in full swing.
I call the big one Bitey
“Sorry Mom, the mob has spoken” :)
Ship of fools

Honestly, I’m just wondering if Trump is so accustomed to people bending the knee that when someone rocks up and tells him to his face that he’s nothing special, he becomes the sycophant because he needs everyone to love him. It’s not about the power. The abuse of power is largely about exercising the limits of his popularity to prove to himself he has worth and value. Seeing how far his own sycophants will stretch is his way of feeling meaningful and important, quite likely trying to prove that to his dead father. Kim Jong Il is his ideal. He could kill someone in the middle of Pyongyang Ave and no one would bat an eye.
It doesn’t hurt that Mamdani is the new fave son of the city Trump cannot win over no matter what he does, no matter what title he holds.
New York is a proxy for Trump’s dad. He’s always gonna be a disappointment to his father, and will go to his grave having never bathed in the glow of his father’s pride.
It’s quite the magic trick - Mamdani turned Trump into the world’s first Orange pander bear.
Yeah, sticking it in a drawer might be their tactic, but congress would have to not be in session for it to work. If it was unanimously approved by both the House and the Senate, it would normally mean there are enough votes to override a veto, but if he did actually veto I wouldn’t put it past them not to hold an override vote.
I love Liz Climo’s stuff so much! Always just tickles me.
You’re welcome! I’m stoked that you’re enjoying it. I was having fun but I like spreadsheets so… I usually temper my expectations when making a recommendation.
Hope you get where you want to be with it quickly :)

We’d get a second-hand book sale just before school starts where there school would on-sell used books bought back (or donated) from previous years. All the parents and many kids would look for the book in the best condition. If you knew what was up, you’d thumb through them all and look for the ones with highlighting and the margin notes. My parents were like “why do you want the ratty old one?” But didn’t press the issue too hard cos at least they were cheaper than the pristine ones where the spine had never been cracked.
We struck up a conversation and there were sparks right away. She’s a redhead and a bit fiery, but I think a little friction is only going to fan the flames of desire.
There’s a site called “morsle” which has a daily test (like Wordle, and all the other daily games that are going around) where it starts out playing you a 5 letter word in Morse code and you can replay it a bunch of times and every time you do it slows down the sound a bit, starting at 40 words per minute. It’s amazing how quickly you can learn to discern one sound from another. I only found it a day or so ago but I am finding it’s coming quite quickly to me. It feels almost like remembering a short musical riff or drum beat. It’s intriguing.
Benefit of the doubt: do you mean you doubt there are many people alive who FOUGHT in WWII?
I’m not sure college fixes that.
Is this Bart going to Military School!!? And Lisa follows - great episode!!! Can’t remember the name, Lisa at War or something?
