A Little Kompromat With An American Swing
Picture if you will the Secretary of State and the Attorney General of the United States running around the world with this rogue whackjob ex-Mayor of New York City spreading this debunked conspiracy to smear the presidents rival. Does take a bit to digest that these conspiracy theory nutjobs are running the show down there, imploding right before our eyes. Yet, in this fast-paced 280 … Continue reading A Little Kompromat With An American Swing
My Patriotic Divide, And A Sock
One tidbit of info I learned the other day, of note, via a tweet from Asha Rangappa, is “… one of the talking points pushed by Russia’s troll farm was that there would be a civil war if Democrats tried to impeach Trump”. And this particular “coinkydink” just happened to be mentioned in the Mueller Report. You must wonder, and I admittedly ask myself, I … Continue reading My Patriotic Divide, And A Sock
One Schmuck, Two Schmuck, Whistleblower Please
You recall that bogus permanent record thing-a-ma-bobber we were threatened with in our ill-begotten youth? So that is now a reality, and Edward Snowden was who was charged for revealing this little factoid to us, and now hiding in Russia because of that. He’s been making the rounds since the publication of his new book, titled ‘Permanent Record’, and first caught him interviewed on The … Continue reading One Schmuck, Two Schmuck, Whistleblower Please
Life In The Spin Cycle, Day 983
How do we answer back to the average right wing MAGA? Take a page from their playbook and turn it back, and remind them that corrupt or not, Hilary is in the past, let’s keep our eye on the ball. Continue reading Life In The Spin Cycle, Day 983

And, We’re Off
Yes, the times have certainly found us, with impeachment on the horizon now, and with the Ukrainian story in mind, let us not forget a couple realities. First off, how bout we just get this one out of the way, we all know Russia plays dirty. Once Putin’s devious little mind is set, on a conquest, a goal per se, they are willing to achieve … Continue reading And, We’re Off
The Teenager And A Pale Blue Dot
Our smartphones chime us awake, the coffee maker bubbles and drips as we take our morning shower, the car starts, and we drive to work, come home and relax in our favourite chair, and 3 billion birds missing goes unnoticed to all but the bird enthusiast. Sitting in a chair designed in Sweden, sipping our coffee grown in Colombia, reading a tweet on a smartphone … Continue reading The Teenager And A Pale Blue Dot
Does Trump Want To Be Impeached For the Production Value?
If you’ve ever been used, then you are familiar with that feeling, that sense of something off. Some of us have ignored it, unfortunately. Others have utilized that gut feeling to their advantage, sidestepping being duped. I’ve had the experience of both, and while I can not, will not say I am infallible, I have honed that muscle. Well, lately I’ve had that same feeling, … Continue reading Does Trump Want To Be Impeached For the Production Value?

Pansy-Bum And The Enablers
Ok, so over the weekend hell broke loose and found fertile ground within that house of white down yonder. All weekend, scandal after scandal after scandal, getting kind of difficult to keep track, actually. Safe to say, the next several months shall be rather fascinating as we watch the Trump cronies and MAGAs spout new left-wing deep state conspiracy theories. Perhaps more Kellyanne on the … Continue reading Pansy-Bum And The Enablers
Just So Ya Know
Back in the fall of 2012 in those first days after Tim had died, in those last days living in that land of Grey (county), just Irish and I, this blog actually kept me sane. Over the long winter months waiting for when my brother-in-law was coming to get me and take me back home, I created, I looked around, I held space, consciously allowing … Continue reading Just So Ya Know
‘We hold these truths to be self-evident’, they wrote
A girlfriend and I last week were outside in the garden chatting, stories from the past summer, plans for the fall, catching up. I mentioned to her how when an old friend was visiting I had been stumped as to where to take her for some historical adventures. London is rather lacking in this history stuff – unlike our namesake over the pond – as … Continue reading ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident’, they wrote
The Normalization Of Cruelty And Corruption
Beginning to wonder if perhaps the GOP strategy is to undermine the very foundations of 243 years of American democracy their own way. Perhaps, you know, just do the work of the extremist Islamic terrorist, undermine democracy themselves, just to keep Muslim’s out of the equation? Maybe they like the concept, but they’re racist so prefer to have whites doing the dirty work of undermining … Continue reading The Normalization Of Cruelty And Corruption
