It’s supposed to be everyone’s favorite time of year; a time of renewal and promise; the return of the birds and the blossoms to temperate climes, when one can finally shrug off the last of winter’s chill. So, where the fuck is it? Up here in the Northeast we’ve been…
First, it’s important that you articulate the title as intended, so you catch my drift. If you start fully erect, and virtually crumple like a deflating balloon, exhaling 100% of the air in your lungs as you form the sounds inside a guttural whoosh until you are left teetering like…
I’ve been accused of being overly pessimistic, a Chicken Little-ish blogger in search of a sky-falling-proof shelter. Perhaps. But, holy crap, where’s the upside, the half or even quarter-full glass? It’s been so long since I’ve been able to take a full breath of fresh air without sucking in the pervasive residue…
If you have one, and you live in Alabama, or Mississippi, or Missouri, or Arkansas, or Utah, or Ohio…you’re fucked…and not in that potentially pleasurable, oooooh-ahhhhhhh kind of way.
Backlash my ass! We have a President who openly commits high crimes and misdemeanors on a daily basis. He makes no excuses for his vile personal behavior or his willy-nilly, brainless dismantling of the precepts and promises of America’s standing as the beacon of freedom, fairness and decency to the rest…

You started it…and I mean that in an historically positive, way-to-go context. You put down the Confederate uprising, led the fight against slavery and the move toward civil rights, Republican policies nudged the fall of the Soviet Union and time-after-time your forerunners drafted legislation and worked hand-in-hand with their Democratic…
…and not to be overly snarky, but since the President can’t read and his devout followers either can’t or won’t, the damning revelations on every line of every page may, sadly, turn out to be the waste of time, money and human resources that Comrade Donnie has been claiming all…
America First! Deutschland Uber Allis! Equally racist, dehumanizing and existentially dangerous. It’s time to stop pussy-footing around the stark and blatantly-obvious parallels between the Trump Regime and the Third Reich, before it’s too late to choose.
…every member of Congress who has abetted the wide-ranging Trump criminal enterprise. Each of you, (no need for a show of your dirty, dirty hands), should be indicted as felonious conspirators and traitorous colluders in support of the wholesale overthrow of American Democracy by its chief executive. History, if indeed we…
