DIAPERS AND ADDERALL

It should be interesting to see what comes out of the speech tonight. No, I shan't be tuning in. I have better things to do. But I fully expect that all over the red states people will be ululating their adulation. And will then wax ecstatic, captured by Fox News, which always goes giddy over right wing blithering.

I do not watch Fox. It's not just today, but I always have better things to do.

You know, things like fighting the patriarchy, boycotting advertisers on Fox, speaking ill of Republicans, throwing eggs at cyber trucks, filling Molotov cocktails, punching Nazis, and attacking Christianity. Stuff like that. Wholesome all-American stuff.
Oh, and burning flags. To stay warm.

This evening will be no different. Smoke my pipe, have a nice cup of tea, that sort of thing. Whisky would have been on the programme in a minor way, except it might interfere with some of the pills I take, and ruin my liver, which I still kind of need. So no.

Before medication it would have been Scotch, sometimes Irish. Never Bourbon, because that fiery paint-thinner taste does not appeal to me. Which is sad, because it was William Faulkner's favourite hooch, and he is a writer I admire.

[Faulkner particularly liked a toddy: 2 ounces rotgut (Bourbon or moonshine), 4 ounces of water, 1 hefty wedge of lemon, 1 teaspoon of sugar. Fully muddle the sugar to dissolve with water before adding anything else. Absolutely no ice!]

Of course I expect folks in the red states will be quite blotto on Vodka like good Russians by the time the applause has died down. Vodka, as everyone knows, cures vaccines!

RUSSIAN REFINERY GOES UP. OH, THE HUMANITY!

Of course the acolytes in the actual audience for the speech will clap their little hands raw. They know what's best for them. Especially when the Ukraine is mentioned.


What traitorous shit-smears like Trump, Vance, Hegseth, Graham, Tuberville, and others, like to forget is that we also signed the Budapest Memorandum. Which gave security assurances to the Ukraine in return for relinquishing their nuclear stockpile. And proves (again) that United States agreements aren't worth the paper they are printed on.


"What kind of lesson do you think this instance sends” to the people of Ukraine? I think the message being sent to many nations around the world is perhaps we can no longer count on the security promises of the free world."

The big orange cowpat threatens that protestors will be locked up or deported.
That will probably be his answer to everything.
Along with Diet Coke.
