The Hermit

Am I glad Marjorie Taylor Greene is leaving Congress? Yes. Do I think she should quit mid-term leaving her constituents unrepresented for an entire year? That’s debatable. It’s just more proof of what an unserious person she has always been.

Yes, by definition, government control of industry is part of socialism. But what if that government openly favors the rich over the masses and is rapidly goose-stepping toward authoritarianism? That is not socialism.

I thought the Morning Joe team was very short sighted this morning, supporting the Guard in D.C. The potential for it to turn into an autocratic takeover are too high.

Whether he did or he didn’t, Trump was still friends with a man he knew had a thing for underage girls.

Claire, answer the phone.

Unregulated AI is dangerous. The frantic rush to incorporate AI into everything is dangerous. Believing the tech bro assholes who try to scare us that China will get ahead of us so we shouldn’t be prudent and cautious is dangerous.

Hmmm, 50 days. I wonder how many innocent Ukrainians Putin can kill in 50 days?

Am I the only one skeptical about the recent jobs report? How am I to believe anything that comes out of a corrupt, deceitful administration?

I am frustrated by the YouTube tutorials for apps on my iPhone. Invariably, when the instructor say, “Open the app and you should see a screen like this,” I open the app, and I have a completely different screen and no idea how to find the one they’re displaying.

Lisa Murkowski is pleased because she saved her state from some of the horrors of the new bill. If she’d just voted against it, she could’ve saved all the states from all the horrors.

Okay. Now I’m afraid there might not be a midterm election. We’re just one pair of ripped panties away from getting fucked.

Are there Iranian sleeper cells in the U.S. just waiting to be activated?

I’m sick of “the worst student I ever had” calling everybody else stupid. Will someone please post his college transcripts so the world can see who’s really stupid?

I wrote this 20 years ago and the song seems very timely, especially on the eve of the nationwide No Kings protests. If you like it, pass it on. We must go out among the dragons. youtu.be/-rJw_hLsAjg?...

The Latino handyman, who worked with my super, deported himself out of fear - a shame because he was a nice, hardworking guy. The lady who lives below me gasped, “Oh no, that’s terrible” when she heard the news. The lady who lives below me is a Republican poll watcher. Crocodile tears.

“IF THEY CAN DO THIS TO ME, THEY CAN DO IT TO YOU. When Trump said it, he’d falsified tax records, incited an insurrection, stolen classified documents, and tried to rig the 2020 election. When Alex Padilla said it, he’d been manhandled and arrested for asking a question at a press conference.

If you respect the office of the President then you must expose those who don’t belong in it. If it sends shivers down your spine, Gavin, then we should know about it.

There are 5 Republican U.S. senators who are not Christian and 1 who is Black. Just where do they think they’ll wind up if they vote Trump’s White Christian dictatorship into being? Maybe Trump didn’t actually say it, but [many] Republicans are stupid.

For a stable genius, Trump sure says “I don’t know” an awful lot.

Elon should buy the University of Pennsylvania and release Dumb Donny’s transcripts.

Some idiots think Pride Month is about gay sex so why should they respect that? It’s not. It’s about Oscar Wilde, Tennessee Williams, Alan Turing, Alexander the Great, Harvey Milk, James Baldwin, Lily Tomlin, Kate McKinnon and others who’ve made a mark in the world despite the hatred hurled at them.

Americans ought to be able to allocate their tax payments to whatever aspect of government or social program they want. I want my taxes to go to education, USAID & the National Endowment for the Arts. You?

“We’re all are going to die,” and she’s gonna make it happen sooner, not later for you. Vote her out.

Seems like Netanyahu forgot what it means to be starved to death. Shame on him.

#SenatorBlumenthal, no one teaches civics anymore, which is partly why we are where we are - in 1930s Germany.

I stopped writing a few years ago (plays & musicals). Recently, I started going through the demos and videos of the heartbreaking projects that comprise over 35 years of my life. I discovered two things: I want to write again, and my work is fucking good - and sooo DEI that Trump might deport me.

How many directions can you look in at the same time?

This should disqualify her from any government position. What a dumb dog killer.

@keywordclark.bsky.social Please consider adding me to your next list.

Art.

This unitary executive thing is working out well. We only lost another 1.2 trillion in the market, and people everywhere are selling off our bonds. But this is all part of his plan. So glad we have a stable genius leading us.

Me too!

Syphilis. Wouldn’t surprise me. So are we gonna have Act IV of Ibsen’s Ghosts with a blind Barron crying for sunlight?

An Easter post on Facebook: “Either Jesus is who he says he is or he’s the greatest imposter in the world.” As far as I know, Jesus the man never claimed he was the son of God. That would have been blasphemous to him because Jesus was a good Jew simply trying to convince people to be more humane.

The Wealthy In This Country Would Poison Us For The Sake Of Profit!!!

You realize this is all because someone once laughed at his ideas on tariffs. God help us.

If Little Marco sinks any further into the couch, he runs the risk of getting a mouthful of JD Vance.

Trump keeps touting the Gilded Age when they had strong tariffs. Uh, the percentage of people in poverty was 40-50% higher. Why does no one in the press have the balls to challenge him with facts?

Vance breaking the trophy is a perfect metaphor for the stupid and destructive Trump administration.

I’ve been in a state of shock since November 5th.

Dear Dumb Asses in the Donbas, you’re so desperate to be Russian, just move across the damn border and let your Ukrainian neighbors live in peace. It’s like if I want to be thin, I can’t make my whole neighborhood go on a diet. That would be nuts.
