Why Is It ...

… that one day, when my boss said to me, “You didn’t listen to a single thing I just said,” I replied, “That’s a weird way to start a conversation.”

… that nothing inspires the words “Fuck off” more than someone telling me to watch my language.

… that this getting old thing is taxing; I blacked out for twenty minutes this morning before I realized I’d put my hoodie on backwards.

… that another day has gone by and I have still never used (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2

… that the best way to hang up on someone is in the middle of your own sentence because that way they will never suspect you hung up on them

… that I am not much for seizing the day when you can just poke it with a stick!

… that when my mind goes quiet I instantly suspect that I am up to something I don’t want me to know about.

… that whenever one door closes I want to get a hammer and nails to make sure that bitch stays shut.

… that based on how I react when the toast pops out of the toaster, I will never look cool walking away from an explosion.

… that today I found a new work recipe … 1 cup of cluster and 1 cup of fuck.

Why Is It ...

… that while some best friends get matching tattoos, my best friend and I have matching mental issues.

… that I have the ability to mulitask; I can lose my mind and chill at the same time.

… that I had to learn about parallelograms in high school instead of how to do my taxes. That information is only useful during Parallelogram Season.

… that even though I keep saying “it is what it is,” I need to know: what is it?

… that kids today are so soft. I remember I died once when I was seven and my mom told me to walk it off.

… that anytime I am suspicious of something I swear I am almost always right.

… that every so often I choose to wear a House Arrest Ankle bracelet as an excuse not to go out at night.

… that I never did a One Night Stand, but I did do a One Year of Wasting My F*cking time.

… that I love putting on warm underwear fresh out of the dryer. Plus it's fun to look around the laundromat and guess who they belong to.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ... Learn What It Is

A couple of things about DEI … stop calling it DEI because the acronym says nothing about it. Calling it Diversity, Equity and Inclusion so when people say they’re against it you know they mean they hate diversity, equity and inclusion.

And then explain to them exactly what it is they’re against because I guarantee many of them don’t know; they think it’s just about hiring white people … straight white people … Christian straight white people … but it’s more than  that, it’s …

Ramps and sidewalk cuts for the visually impaired or people in wheelchairs or on crutches

Subtitles and captions on TVs and phones to make it easier for the hearing impaired

Family restrooms so that fathers and mothers can take care of their children in a specialized bathroom; this also can include changing tables in men’s restrooms

Breastfeeding/pumping stations & accommodations for nursing mothers

Floating paid holidays

Pay equity & transparency

Parental leave

Coming back to a job after giving birth to a child

Not having to just accept workplace harassment

Work accommodations for a variety of disabilities

Flexible work arrangements

Size inclusive chairs and beds in medical facilities

Belt extenders on planes

Various food options for vegetarians, vegans, kosher, gluten-free, etc. at medical facilities

Nonsmoking areas and the end of smoking indoors

Being able to have medical professionals and your coworkers use your preferred name … not just queer people have those; my name on my birth certificate is Robert but I identify as Bob

Wellness programs and incentives

More relaxed & inclusive dress code policies

Rooms to pray or meditate at work & other public places

Employee recognition programs; -employee/network resource groups

Large print materials; materials in different languages

Multiple religious options at hospitals

Accessible bikes and public transit accommodations

Businesses are not becoming fully cashless

Company-covered mental and behavioral health resources

Learn it and explain it to people who don’t understand … especially those who think DEI caused a plane and a helicopter to crash over the Potomac.

GOP Dumpster Fire: Racists, Liars, Grifters and Some Good News

There’s an old saying about when someone shows you who they are, believe them; and when someone says something, openly and publicly, believe that, too, and not the spin machine that envelopes the liar afterwards.

Here are a few examples of liars, and morons, and weirdos showing us who they are …


The Felon visited North Carolina last week and took questions from supporters, telling them that the federal response to the storm had been “rotten” and “terrible.” GOP Representative from Florida, Anna Paulina Luna moderated the event and told the crowd that federal authorities have “intentionally not helped out residents” because “it’s red communities impacted.”

Ten days ago #ThisBitch was among the 87 House Republicans who voted against a stopgap funding bill to keep the government running which included funding FEMA.

Remember, every GOP accusation is an admission.


The Felon was reportedly caught on tape saying vile thing s about Helen Comperatore, the widow of Corey Comperatore  who was actually shot and killed a Felon rally, into a source of amusement for his uber-wealthy dinner guests:

“So they’re going to get millions of dollars but the woman, the wife, this beautiful woman, I handed her the check—we handed her the check—and she said, ‘This is so nice, and I appreciate it, but I’d much rather have my husband.’ Now I know some of the women in this room wouldn’t say the same. At least four couples here would have been thrilled, actually.”

F*cking pig.

JD Vance AKA Sofa Loren AKA Lying POS tried to distort his own position on abortion at the debate last week saying  he “never supported a national ban.”

In the past, this Lying POS has said that he “certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally” and was “sympathetic” to the view that a national ban was needed to stop women from going to another state to get an abortion.

His lips move, he lies.


The Felon has vowed to revoke Temporary Protected Status for the Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, and deport them if he is reelected in November.

“You have to remove the people, and you have to bring them back to their own country. They are, in my opinion, it’s not legal. Absolutely. I’d revoke it, and I’d bring them back to their country.”

Temporary Protected Status means these immigrants are here legally.


It was a substantive and mostly civil debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz who showcased the difference between the two parties on immigration, abortion and foreign policy. But no issue made clearer the size and stakes of the country’s current political divide than when Lying POS refused to concede that The Felon lost the 2020 election, saying:

“Tim, I’m focused on the future.”

Walz replied:

“That is a damning nonanswer.”

Then Lying POS actually uttered the line that The Felon “peacefully gave over power on January the 20th.”

I guess he skipped right over January 6.


Once again proving he’s anti-military, the draft dodging, bone spur riddled Felon actually referred to brain injuries more than 100 U.S. troops sustained in an Iranian attack on a base in Iraq as "headaches":

"What does injured mean? You mean because they had a headache? Because the bombs never hit the fort?"

He has no business being Commander-in-Chief.


The Felon has openly admitted that he “hated” to pay his workers overtime at his organization and would in fact fire those who were due overtime pay:

“I know a lot about overtime. I hated to give overtime; I hated it. I’d get other—I shouldn’t say this—but I’d get other people in. I wouldn’t pay.”

He has built his ego and his so-called empire of screwing over his employees.


The Felon has called for “one real rough, nasty” and “violent day” of police retaliation in order to eradicate crime “immediately”:

“One rough hour—and I mean real rough—the word will get out and it will end immediately, you know? It will end immediately.”

Yes, the bloated gasbag of lies said he can end crime in the entire country in one hour.


House Oversight and Accountability Committee Chair, Republican James Comer, who couldn’t get any real dirt on Hunter and no dirt at all on Joe, now says he has information relating to Tim Walz and a vague alleged connection to the Chinese Communist Party.

Comer said in a letter accompanying the subpoena—issued on the day before the VP debate—that his committee received whistleblower disclosures about “serious concern among Department of Homeland Security (DHS) personnel regarding a longstanding connection between” Walz and China.

Vague, and stupid; kinda like James Comer.


The Felon, on Kellyanne Conway’s Fox Nation show:

“We’re going to move education back to the states where they can run their educational programs, and they’ll do great. And you take states like Iowa and Idaho and so many, they’ll have great education. Right now, you have mostly transgender. Everything’s transgender. Some of these school programs I looked at the other night, they’re destroying our country. So education is exciting.”

Yes, again Demented DonOLD thinks schools are doing gender reassignment surgeries in the cafeteria.


At a recent campaign event in Whitehall, Montana, the GOP US Senate candidate Tim Sheehy told voters that when he set up the aerial firefighting company through which he made his fortune, he and his wife were living “below the poverty line.”

But in his own memoir that he ALLEGEDLY wrote, Sheehy says:

“So, we had amassed a nest egg of close to $300,000. I also had some money that my parents had been putting away for me since I was a kid. All told, we had roughly $400,000 to allocate toward building a business and establishing a new life.”

The poverty level is $400,000 in this buffoon’s America.

You may remember that Sheehy was previously busted for lying about a gunshot wound that was actually accidentally self-inflicted. Since then, Sheehy has given no interviews to local or national press and his election events are now “closed affairs,” no media invited.

Sheehy is hiding something, like his lies.


Y’all remember that Oklahoma school Superintendent Ryan Walters wanted to buy Bibles for all state schools, but according to the bid documents, vendors must meet certain specifications: Bibles must be the King James Version; must contain the Old and New Testaments; must include copies of the Pledge of Allegiance, Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights; and must be bound in leather or leather-like material.

A salesperson at Mardel Christian & Education searched, and though they carry 2,900 Bibles, none fit the parameters except for one: Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the U.S.A. Bible, endorsed by the Felon. They cost $60 each online, with The Felon receiving fees for his endorsement.


A bipartisan forum in a small Latah County, Idaho community took a turn when GOP Senate incumbent Dan Foreman stormed out of the event, following a racist outburst directed at an Indigenous candidate.

It all began when Foreman was asked if discrimination existed in Idaho, and he said ‘No.’ Trish Carter-Goodheart, the Democratic candidate for House Seat A and member of the Nez Perce tribe, pushed back on that idea, pointing to her own experience and the history of white supremacy groups in Northern Idaho.

Foreman responded using an expletive to criticize what he cast as the liberal bent of his response but according to people present at the forum, he then told Carter-Goodheart:

“I’m so sick and tired of this liberal b*llsh*t! Why don’t you go back to where you came from?!”

Sounds like Idaho does have a problem with discrimination and it’s in the GOP.


Support among North Carolina Republicans for their candidate for governor, Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson, has dropped by 20 percentage points, and now, among all voters polled, Democratic Attorney General Josh Stein now has a 17-point lead.

In a previous poll, Robinson had the vote of 83% of Republicans but that support has dropped to 63% … which is still too high.


This past week Mexico inaugurated its first woman president, Claudia Sheinbaum, a climate scientist who is facing surging violence, a major constitutional reform and maintaining a key relationship with the U.S as our top trading partner; $807 billion worth of goods were exchanged both ways last year and Mexico has been a critical ally in stemming migration to the U.S.

Under a Sheinbaum presidency, the U.S. will likely see continued cooperation on migration, including massive efforts from the Mexican government to detain migrants at its border with Guatemala and elsewhere in the country before people head to the U.S but that cooperation could shift if The Felon is elected in November.

You know what that means …


Judge Robert McBurney, in Georgia’s Fulton County, struck down the state’s six-week abortion ban last week, allowing the procedure to resume and making it legal up to 22 weeks of pregnancy. GOP Governor Brian Kemp signed the bill into law in 2019 but didn’t take effect until July 2022 after it faced a legal challenge and the Supreme Court’s reversal of Roe v. Wade.

McBurney wrote in his ruling that a review of “of our higher courts’ interpretations of ‘liberty’ demonstrates that liberty in Georgia includes in its meaning, in its protections, and in its bundle of rights the power of a woman to control her own body, to decide what happens to it and in it, and to reject state interference with her healthcare choices.”

Simple, common sense … letting women make their own healthcare choices.


US job growth accelerated much more than anticipated last month, providing further reassurance for the ongoing stability of the labor market.

Employers added an estimated 254,000 jobs in September, a higher tally than August’s monthly total—which was upwardly revised to 159,000—and blows economists’ expectations for a 140,000-job gain out of the water.

The Federal Reserve, now keenly focused on protecting the labor market as high inflation appears to have been tamed, is closely scrutinizing employment data for any signs of weakness.


Vice President Kamala Harris and former GOP Representative Liz Cheney appeared in Ripon, Wisconsin, the birthplace of the Republican party, as Cheney endorsed Harris for the presidency and spoke of her love for country and the need to stop The Felon. As she spoke, the crowd, at several times, broke into chants of:

“Thank you, Liz! Thank you, Liz!”

Cheney’s eyes visibly welled with tears; with the exception of Adam Kinzinger, Cheney was the sole Republican fighting for Democracy in the wake of The Felon’s incited riot on January 6. I have often said that I don’t agree with Cheney on anything … except this one thing, so I will join that chorus:

Thank you, Liz!


Remember, the GOP is a party that promises but never delivers, a party of demented old men, and mascara-wearing RuPaul wannabes who hate women, the  LGBTQ+ community, immigrants, education and members of our military.

We don't need that so ...

GOP Dumpster Fire: Liars, Con Artists, Anti-Trans, Anti-Women and Anti-Education

There’s an old saying about when someone shows you who they are, believe them; and when someone says something, openly and publicly, believe that, too, and not the spin machine that envelopes the liar afterwards.

Here are a few examples of liars, and morons, and weirdos showing us who they are …


After The Felon asked his racist question at the NABJ—“When did she turn Black”—I didn’t think he could get any more disgusting, but then last week he sank even lower.

He spoke of giving Miriam Adelson, who funneled millions into his 2016 campaign—the Presidential Medal of Freedom and called it the “equivalent of the Congressional Medal of Honor” but better because “everyone [who] gets the Congressional Medal of Honor, they’re soldiers” is in either in very bad shape because they’ve been shot or they’re dead.

Yes, a woman who gave money to elect him gets an award that’s better than an honor given soldiers who gone above and beyond the call of duty to help their fellow soldiers.

This is what happens when you raise a five-time draft dodger narcissist to power. Don’t do it again.


After casting his ballot in the Florida primary The Felon took questions reporters and one asked about his claim that crowds at Kamala Harris’ rallies had been manufactured by AI.

“Well, I can’t say what was there, who was there. I can only tell you about ours. We have the biggest crowds ever in the history of politics. We have crowds that nobody’s ever seen before. And we continue to have that. We have a level of enthusiasm that nobody’s seen before.”

Sure DonOld … of note is that now The Felon’s campaign will by using blackout curtains at his rallies to close off the view of all the empty seats.


JD “Couchfucker” Vance claims Kamala Harris wants to give $25,000 to undocumented immigrants to buy American homes and that will exacerbate the housing shortage in this country.

The FACTS are that the Biden-Harris administration proposed providing $25,000 in down payment assistance for 400,000 first-generation home buyers and a $10,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers. The plan is only available to “working families” who have paid their rent on time for at least two years and the proposal says not one word about aiding undocumented immigrants.

Once again, guyliner wearing, couch fucking, drag loved JD is not telling the truth.


The Felon’s campaign was forced to pay more than $82,000 in advance for a recent rally in Asheville, North Carolina because the ALLEGED billionaire has a long history of failing to pay cities for billed rally fees. In fact, when he left the White House in disgrace in 2021 it was with at least $850,000 in unpaid rally debt.

Most of his bills remain unpaid.


You gotta have friends… which may explain why The Felon chartered a private jet recently that once belonged to his friend Jeffrey Epstein. A campaign official said they had “no idea” the Gulfstream G550 was once owned by one of the country’s most infamous sex traffickers.

Uh huh; but it raises another question: what happened to the ALLEGED billionaire’s plane?


Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued the Biden administration seeking to block a rule that requires nursing homes to have a minimum level of nurse and aide staffing to care for patients.

You read that right: Texas does not want to be told that nursing homes should have a minimum level of nurses and nurses’ aides on staff to care for the nation’s elderly.

This is what they fight against.


The Felon claims a President Kamala Harris—and doesn’t that sound fabulous—would take away your private health care but Americans would be provided with free healthcare.

Remember this is the same guy who promised for four years to repeal ObamaCare and give Americans the very best healthcare and then never got it done.


Also this week, at yet another disastrous press conference, The Felon talked about the price of groceries and inflation and proved his point with TicTacs.

He held up a container of TicTacs you can buy anywhere, saying that was what you used to buy, and then held up a novelty size box of TicTacs and said that was what was being sold for the same price.

He’s a moron or a liar or Demented DonOld.


President Biden repealed The Felon’s ban on transgender Americans joining the military. The ban took effect in April 2019 and Trans personnel who were already serving were allowed to continue, but new recruits were locked out. The decision to allow already serving trans military personnel to remain only came after The Felon lost four successive court cases.

This week The Felon spoke on this topic and said he never ever never said they would be kicked out of the military but then a Tweet from 2019 reappeared from his:

“After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals top serve in any capacity in the U.S. military.”

The draft-dodging liar has spoken and we remember.


Former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos told her local newspaper that she would be open to serving in the former president’s cabinet should he win again this November. That is a complete turnaround from what she said the day after the insurrection when she resigned from her post in protest following what she called an “unconscionable” attack on the U.S. Capitol building by The Felon’s supporters.

Why does she want to go back now? She wants to eliminate the Department of Education.


There was no shortage of lies during The Felon’s fluff piece interview with Elon Musk this week but there was one claim that seemed as though it deserved its own special place in the spotlight; the two asshats were talking about geopolitics when The Felon—because he knows nothing about geopolitics—switched the topic to global warming saying:

“The biggest threat is not global warming, where the ocean’s going to rise one, one-eighth of an inch over the next 400 years. The big — and you’ll have more oceanfront property, right?”

Sadly this is how this Adderall-addicted, racist, rapist, traitorous, felon thinks.


Former House Speaker, who ran out of his job with his tail between his legs, Kevin McCarthy  says that former President Barack Obama is secretly running Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign:

“Some of Obama’s [key people such as] David Plouffe and others are now working on the campaign. You’re getting the Obamas shifting from running the White House to now running this campaign.”

Clearly the dementia within the GOP is contagious and spreading ....


Also during his interview with Musk, The Felon said they could “meet next time in Venezuela” if he loses November’s election:

“If something happens with this election, which would be a horror show, we’ll meet the next time in Venezuela, because it’ll be a far safer place to meet than our country.”

The Felon—a criminal—says Venezuela has released violent criminals from its jails and sent them to the United States to reduce its own crime rate.


Texas GOP Attorney General Ken Paxton is suing the Biden administration again over federal workplace protections for transgender employees. The lawsuit against the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission [EEOC]) and the Justice Department [DOJ] argues that agency guidelines clarifying what constitutes harassment under federal law are unlawful and asks the court to permanently block them.

The EEOC guidelines,--which are not legally binding—state that denying employees accommodations based on their gender identity—including intentionally misgendering transgender workers or denying them access to restrooms that match their gender identity—is unlawful workplace harassment.

Of note, Paxton is working along with the Heritage Foundation, proponents of Project 2025.


In another case of JD Vance’s weirdness is his take on elderly women, post-menopausal women who are unable to give birth to children and therefore of little use to America should be used as babysitters and nursemaids to children:

“There’s sort of all the classic stuff that grandparents do to grandchildren … that’s the whole purpose of the post-menopausal female, in theory.”

Of note is that Vance’s mother-in-law took a sabbatical from her role as a biology professor at the University of California, San Diego to help raise his youngest child at the time.

Remember, this is a party that promises but never delivers, a party of demented old men, and mascara-wearing RuPaul wannabes who hate women, the elderly, the LGBTQ+_ coimmunity, brown people and members of our military.

We don't need that so ...
