Not a Christian here, even though I dig the teachings of ole JC, but I've definitely been amping up my chanting and visualization!
Ohhhhm!!!! Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna.

15. If nobody tells him en route, he will have a shocker upon disembarking...
If he does somehow get the news, he will stew in his own juices all the way there, and arrive ready to blow his stack.
Either way

3. Same shit, different day in Trumpist Dumb****istan. If your power went out for a week
you'd think you were on a different planet. WTF? is my paradigm these days.

Three days with no power!
Some of the major newspapers are doing a good job, but that is not enough these days.

41. Six weeks with no power, 100 + degree days, and when power was restored all
I missed during that time was the Houston Astros making their way to the World Series so they could be swept.
Six weeks from now we could have a different President or be under Marshall Law!
Wait for it....

13. This is nuts
I'm 47 years old and at any other time in my life, ANY ONE of these stories would have dominated the news for days, if not weeks. Now we get 3 in one day and no one can keep up anymore.
It seems like the sane times were decades ago, not months.
