Meidas Touch – Of course, this is not evidence….

Really American

Ring of fire – The weirdness never stops with Republicans, does it.

Also Ring of Fire – empty Greene is calling this “The Mark of the Beast” – or, more specifically, “Biden’s Mark of the Beast.”

Rocky Mountain Mike – maybe not his best, but that’s a high bar to have to meet, and it’s very pertinent.

Do Octopuses Dream?

This is 6:25, and if you don’t have time for the whole video, don’t even start. I honestly don’t think his answer is the only answer, but I do think it should be included – broadly and decisively.

  1. Do you know that Don Carron’s parody on Green Green is banned by YouTube because of hate speech now?

    MT: Of course, it’s no proof but a little schadenfreude goes a long way.

    RA: Please vote him out, if he returns to be reelected, that is. I read that he probably wasn’t but that could also have been a lot of wishful thinking.

    RIF: Matt Gaetz won’t be interviewed on Faux News anytime soon. It’s like handing him a shovel and he starts digging his and everyone else’s grave.

    ROF: I like the idea that idiots like Greene only now find out they’ve had a vaccination passport all along. I suppose they’re now ritually going to burn them too.  If they do, I sure hope that a vaccination card is needed to accept a seat in Congress.

    RMR: Talking Heads’ Same As It Ever Was seemed quite appropriate to parody this Jim Crow legislation popping up in the Red States.

    NoPBS: Isn’t it marvellous? Perhaps these colour changes are just reflexes, but a reflection of dreams would be far more appropriate for invertebrates that turn out to be as smart as dogs; which is no wonder with nine brains.

    Beau: It’s all about prevention, isn’t it? And recognising patterns (60% of shootings are connected to domestic violence) and acting on them is the only way to go. And while there will be little data on whether a shootist ever kicked his dog, research has shown that many people who are cruel to animals, especially when they are young, at some time shift that cruelty to people. However, I’m not sure it’ll convince the pro-gun lobby to go along with legislation based on that. Too much money involved and too many of their clients falling into either category of abuse. They’ll have to pry their precious guns from their cold dead hands first.

    • PP/TFT – I didn’t, but now that you mention it, I didn’t see it when I flashed by lookin for anything new. Good grief.

      RoF – It really should be required, even just to enter the building (and the office buildings.)We should protect our Congreepeople – we expect them to protect us.

      Octopuses – I have no problem believing cotopuses dream. Cuttlefish, a close relative of theirs, can pass the Stanford marshmallow test – that is considered to be a test of intelligence, but it appears to me to be much more – even with language – and if cuttlefish have language, they are not telling us.

  2. Matt Gaetz Implicated in Child Sex Trafficking Scheme

    Gotta admire his effort at trying to claim being “chivalrous”:

    “I have definitely, in my single days, provided for women I’ve dated.  You know, I’ve paid for flights, for hotel rooms. I’ve been, you know, generous as a partner.”

    OOPS!

    Remove Ron Johnson

    Hey, RoJo – Are you going to spend ANOTHER 4th of July with Vlad in Moscow, you M-F TRAITOR?

    Tucker Carlson STUNNED After Matt Gaetz Implicates Him

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/03/31/matt-gaetz-pulls-tucker-carlson-into-his-mess/

    M GAETZ:

    “I can say that actually, you and I went to dinner about two years ago — your wife was there — and I brought a friend of mine: You’ll remember her and she was actually threatened by the FBI, told that if she wouldn’t cop to the fact that somehow I was involved in some pay-for-play scheme, that she could face trouble.”

    T CARLSON:

    ” Actually, no – I don’t remember the woman you’re speaking of or the context at all, honestly.”

    And when the 17 y/o “woman” was asked why she broke off her … hmmm … all-expenses paid “relationship” with Matt, she simply said: “He was too immature.”

    Republicans Are Freaking Out Over The Idea Of “Vaccine Passports”

    When I first started reading about “Vaccine Passports” I honestly had NO opinion.

    But now learning that it pi$$es off Rethuglicans – I’m all for it!

    Octopus Dreaming

    Pretty cool.  Obviously we have no idea if it’s accurate – but it’s very entertaining.

    • Gaetz – He was also the only Rep in the House to vote no on a bill to crack down on sex trafficking.  And some think he voted against raising the minimum wage because he thought it was the minimum age.  Of course Gym Jordan is claiming he’s innocent.

      On octopuses, see what I said to Lona.

  3. Thanks, JD. 35  I need more 26 and less Republicosis.

    An Gaetz, I’d rate him as … Republican!

  4. I love the dreaming octopus
