I admire his optimism, even if I don't share it.
Trump is not to be trusted. Trump is a liar and a thief. I have never seen him to be anything else.

I get what you are saying, The kid is not the problem though. Describing the child as a "meat shield" is not a dig against the kid. It's about what Elon Musk, the child's father, is doing to him. Elon Musk is wearing his own son over his head to keep from getting shot when he goes outside. He is using his own child as a human shield. Elon Musk has turned his own flesh and blood into a meat shield!

I would hold up my hands and show all seven of my fingers.

Because Warner Brothers owns the rights to all DC games right now and nobody at Warner has any idea how to actually produce good video games. The Arkham games were good because they came out before loot boxes and online-only games were a thing. Now if a game doesn't earn a billion dollars in the first year, the game is considered a failure.

Most Americans do not live in or near a big city. We tend to live in small towns that have a majority of only one or two ethnic groups. My town has whites and latinos but very few black people. I personally know only two black people and neither one lives near me. The only Chinese people I know are the ones who operate the Chinese restaurant in town. My experience is not unique.

All of this is so that after they have made it nearly impossible to be investigated, held responsible, or audited, they will run a big expensive scam on the government dime and cash out. They are bank robbers. This is the plot to Die Hard! The only difference is instead of stealing treasury bonds from an exchange, they plan to issue the bonds to themselves from the treasury building!

This makes me sad.

Hold onto your chairs folks. It's going to be kinda bumpy from now on. And not in a good way.

My grandmother bought me a dark green, polyester, turtle-neck shirt; when I was 12. I never even tried it on.

Trump is a fucking baby! He can't even win without bitching about it.

I'm pretty sure this is all about his pension. If he retires now, before Trump takes office, there isn't much that can be done to take his pension away from him. If he stays on and Trump fires him for cause, he will likely get nothing for retirement.

Are we sure Trump is mocking him? I think Trump is an idiot and doesn't understand the difference. He clearly thinks that Puerto Rico is not part of the United States. This isn't some kind of multi-level chess move. Trump is a moron!

 

The story is about an artist who isn't very successful until he notices some tiny creatures (aliens?) and they somehow get into his eyes. This makes his art really great, but also drives him crazy. His art is full of those tiny faces, because that is what he sees.

Not sure if it was in a book or a magazine, but I would love to read it again.
