The reason for the season: selling a metric shit ton of junk nobody really needs.

Term that I don't love: narco-terrorist. What was wrong with "drug dealer?" I think the former term means a drug dealer you can kill by extrajudicial means.

The anti-Europe bots are out in force today. Predictable, I suppose

Legal fees for administering capital punishment are high because the court recognizes its irreversible nature. The standard for the quality of the evidence is set very high. So why is it OK to wantonly kill people in motorboats on the high seas with essentially no evidence?

Since I didn't get any good answers for why Chrisitan Nationalists are any different than Islamic Extremists, I decided to make a video showcasing just how similar they truly are. youtu.be/suwZli4zRns

Russian propaganda is thicker than usual here today. I had to block "Vladimir Putin News." Not subtle

A slave is forced to worship his master. I have a notion that there is a 1:1 correlation between worship and slavery. In other words, being a slave implies you worship and worshipping implies you are a slave. I would welcome comments, as I am not sure about this myself.

Three new followers, all blocked for being MAGA. Sigh. At least I've been released from Twitter jail. Trying to stay out of jail this time: if you receive a bump on the head, you might lose consciousness. Hope that wasn't too violent for our AI overlords.

My wife has strong opinions about language. I once told her, "Look at this picture of a man putting a grapefruit in his ass." She looked at the picture and said, "You should have said 'Look at this picture of a man feeding grapefruit to his donkey.'" tomayto tomahto amirite?

So Twitter is awash in "Russia is not the enemy" bots tonight. Must be a coincidence

For years, many Americans treated Putin as a transactional leader you could deal with. That’s a mistake. Today, he’s driven by ideology—not logic or Russia’s national interest. If we don’t understand that, we won’t deter him or end this war.

Merry Christmas to all; saved and damned alike.

I believe our sacred institutions will protect us from MAGA. Congress? No Supreme Court: Not a chance South Park: Yeah, that's the one

She tried and tried and tried again to warn America.

My wife and I celebrate the anniversary of our meeting (today) as well as our marriage. We only met because our roommates went to the same carwash at the same time, back in 1967. Life seems inevitable, but it's not. A chance encounter can bring 59 years of happiness. I know!

Scene: John McCain's brain trust evaluating Sarah Palin as a running mate. Somebody must have said, "Yeah, but she's an idiot." The fact that this objection wasn't considered important may have led us to Donald Trump.

My spell checker: "You typed a comma. Of course you mean period. I'll fix that for you." Also my spell checker: "comm0n? Close enough."

I don't like TV game shows, but my wife does. At heart, they are all based on materialism, but if you want to see people humiliate themselves with an absolutely pornographic lust for money, the show for you is The Price is Right. OMG

The darkest lyrics I ever wrote, in a song about an abusive relationship: Sometimes I wonder who you are It seemed to me we'd come so far I catch my breath and try to think And watch my blood drip in the sink
