"Not One Day More."

THAT's something we can yell at our next gathering.

Or, if you prefer, "Not One More Day!"

"More than 100,000 march in London to demand Theresa May's resignation"

Here's a List of Why I Can't Give a Shit- Today's (6/29/2017) trump Tweetstorm:

1. The average American citizen doesn't know who "low I.Q. Crazy Mika" is, and what he/she has to do with this month's power bill.

2. Poorly-rated? I guess it is if I've never heard of it.
There's not enough time in my busy life to spare a moment for this "Psycho Joe's ratings" or anyone's "ratings", anyway, so I guess I won't worry about it.

3. Instead of "letting it go", a plebeian notion trump wouldn't recognize, he couldn't stop at ONE tweet. He had to stretch it out to two, to really let 'em have it. Whoever they are.

4. It reads like there was a physical struggle for the phone, Ivanks won, and she did the second Tweet.

5. Neither trump, or Ivanks, or anyone else in that family of inbreds, gives a Rusty Fuck in a Rainstorm: about me, or anyone in this country, our out of this country, but themselves.

6. While he's talking about someone's chemical face peel or whatever: there are hundreds, if not thousands, of professional people whose job it is TODAY to lock him up & throw away the key.

7. Nobody likes donald trump. Nobody. Nobody cares about his little feelings.

8. Any reasonable, sane person *I* know, who suddenly found out they owned a ginormous luxury hotel on a choice and beautiful piece of land? They wouldn't be really upset about much of anything. (Especially about what some poorly-rated- guy was doing). Not for YEARS.

9. Nobody I've ever heard of would turn away a woman with a bleeding face who just wanted some fucking help. Trump's a monster.

10. Theoretically, the author of the tweets is the "president of the U.S.A.", so if the TV's bothering him so much, he could always demand somebody shut it off for him.

Eye Candy for Weary Eyes

Here's a gentle reminder of what we still have in us. We can't help but compare these pictures to our current waking fucking NIGHTMARE.

Today, instead of mourning, I'll flex that muscle in my mind that points to my perspicacity: All of this is still somewhere in all of us. It didn't die, it's hiding behind legitimate fear. It's still there & will never go away. I'll pretend just for a few moments that trump & co don't even exist. I'll even pretend it's now. I'll remember what it was like to have an engaged adult and an actual man representing us. You know, instead of an idiot.

Here's a working, real family man. Youthful, black, intelligent, athletic, talented, handsome, and forever in his element. And the first thing we see in this picture is the "Miles to Go Before I Sleep" warm-up & preparation of his mind, body and spirit.

" Barack Obama loves ranch dressing and cannot resist a plate of nachos
But he can't stand trail mix with M&Ms and tries to avoid fast and fried food
The President's tastes were revealed by his former aide Reggie Love
He once forgot Obama's taquitos when out campaigning, infuriating him
Obama confessed he eats nachos until 'guacamole comes out of my eyes'."

Donald Trump is so UGLY!! I can't even stand to look at him.

His nasty face makes my skin crawl. I get hives when I see a picture of him. That's not his head. His neck threw up. He's the world's history's ugliest blowup doll. He fell outta the Ugly Tree and hit every branch on the way down. He's repulsive, revolting, frightening, gross, awful, grisly, hideous, appalling, grotesque, horrid, disfigured, foul, deformed, loathsome, misshapen, creepy, nauseating, monstrous, repugnant, offensive, sleazy, obnoxious, and hateful.

Putrid-looking face. That no-oxygen look because his tie (and hair) are on too tightly. If I see his ugly, greasy, pustulent face one more time, I'll need a shower with a sandblaster. He's so ugly, he'd make a freight train take a dirt road. He's a walking, talking, tweeting BLIVIT. I'm not even going to go near that puffy, greasy mouth of his- open, closed, sucking on a pork chop. Trump's countenance is hideously deformed and there is absolutely no excuse for that hair.

He's uglier than a batch of homemade sin, bless his greasy, slimy, ugly 'lil heart... He's so ugly his mother had to feed him with a slingshot. His chauffeur was fined for littering when he dropped him off at school. Repulsive. I don't want to see his sweaty little clammy, manicured hands either. All the good that ever came out of the "thumbs up" or "Okay" sign is GONE now.

So, here's a picture of a kitty.

I know someone who knows someone who knows Paula Deen.

Can you imagine what an amazing addition to the White House she'd be? She'd be boss of her kitchen. Nobody in the world knows their fried vanilla puddings, cheesey-filled cheesecake crusts, or beeeeeaauuuuutiful chocolate birthday cake, more than Paula Deen. Nobody. (And from what I've heard, she's got quite a sense of humor)

Here she is, looking just a little like Marylin Monroe on JFK's birthday.

Paula Deen, such a pioneer, shares that special distinction with a small group of noteworthy women.. women of the highest culinary talents. I found this picture of one of my personal favorites:

http://www.nbcnews.com/id/26186498/ns/us_news-security/t/julia-child-cooked-double-life-spy/#.WUAaydy1vIU

To me, nothing sounds more sensible than Paula Deen joining the WH staff in that very capacity, starting today. She'd have her work cut out for her, of course. But aren't all such things a symptom of valor, that being its own reward?? And that Birthday cake would be 6 feet high. Too full of buttercream frosting to allow room for "the girl" (Ivank) to jump out of said cake. See: everybody wins.

ATTN James Comey: Eat your damned oatmeal.

I don't care if you hate oatmeal, just eat it.



2) Take a nice walk outside. Wear your headphones & put Bach Brandenburg concertos on low. If music relaxes you, whatever it is: if you have a penchant for 90's music, Beastie Boys, The Pixies, Tiffany, listen to it.

3) Wear horse-blinders in public so as to avoid attracting attention. And for your own Focus, of course.

4) DON'T listen to what ANYONE says to you.

5) Get a good back, neck and scalp massage.

6) Take your vitamins and a low-dose aspirin, drink water.

7) Try stretching & rolling your neck. If you hear your bones pop like a gun going off, try again later today.

You need to be alert tomorrow. Force yourself to go to bed early! And we don't give a rat's ass if you 'don't wanna go to bed', just go to bed.



Be well, Mr. Comey-- let's go make things right.

Of course-! I'd be honored to plan & prepare Trump's Birthday Dinner.

We know what "the president" likes. We don't even have to ask him what he likes, because the entire world knows- the minute it occurs to him. Bearing that in mind, I suggest we begin with

APPETIZERS: The Two Lil-Fisted Dougnut



The meat inside the doughnut must be very well-done. Everyone will be served one, except our king-of-the-day, who gets TWO. Because, birthday.

SALAD: WATERGATE Salad (with cream cheese)



A taste of the South for that king of NYC. Bursting with marshmallows, pudding and CoolWhip? It's a salad. Believe me. It's tremendous.

SOUP: PRIMORDIAL (exactly the way our B-Boy wants it)

ENTREE: "ROMAN ORGY meat construction" (not pictured)



Krill baked inside salmon baked inside duck baked inside chicken baked inside turkey baked inside a pig baked inside a cow. Deep-fried afterward, the whole thing. It's like eating so many animals at once, which is something Trump would really enjoy.

DESSERT: The BEAUTIFULLEST Piece of Chocolate Cake and THREE scoops of Ice Cream!



The "president" will be served Two Pieces, of course. Everyone else gets only half a slice because they're not the President of The United States. Everyone there will eat it with Ketchup dip, which is Trump's favorite food.

I'm speechless at being asked to prepare this most special of meals for our very special president. Honored.
I will do my personal best to make it a real winner.

And thank you.

SAD!!!

He hides behind his phone. Here's a protest sign I made about that, for any march I go to in the future.

Donald Trump reminds me of Elliot Rodger.

His frame of mind is so, so dangerous. Elliot's contrived "evil laugh", his vanity, money, everything... you can substitute a lot of things for the word "girls" and get Trump in this scenario. Money? How much money does one person need? How many "objects"?

Elliot Roger was a malignant narcissist. This one, Elliot, uses the word "loser", too. He preens. He discards all that was handed to him on a silver freaking platter. Then he commits mass murder and kills himself.



This is some scary shit. Trump's like Elliot Roger, without all the charm.
