  1. My brain reels as we head to Trump’s fifth 4th of July as President. For the first time, I identify with Patricia Arquette in Pulp Fiction. America has been carried in by Vincent Vega in the middle of the night, overdosed and near death. With no reliable medical skills, I’m in the background watching with sick fascination as we head into uncharted territory with an adrenaline shot to the heart. I wonder how long the old girl can hang on.
  2. Ed. Steamboat quicker on the draw with Archie’s wisdom.
  3. ICE: now with funnier inhumanity!
  4. Question about the now quaint Rule of Law: would CA being a 2-party consent state apply here?
  5. Re: Bynes Crippling mental illness is a helluva drug.
  6. This time around, the revolution will not be televised.
  7. Lots of immigrant players too, except they’re millionaires, thus safe.
  8. Without hyperbole, our leadership is so unmoored from the American ideal that it currently represents the greatest danger to humanity. And that’s just for starters.
  9. Because the Trump ICE-Wear product line is slow to market.
  10. It’s a different suicidal calculus when a pardon might be on the table.
  11. Did the semi legit mercenary kill on his own, at the direction of others, or is this merely stochastic terrorism?
  12. There are a million ways to die, and no one here gets out alive. Dying while standing for the right thing is far better than most endings. I’m not seeking it, and I’m no martyr, but I’ve made peace with that possible outcome.
  13. We’re gonna need a bigger basket.
  14. I feel you Biff. I’ll be sporting the black one.
  15. How about ”The only King we need is MLK Orange despot, go away.” I like it because it rightfully elevates a black man above Trump. I’ve decided my earlier idea of alluding to Anwar Sadat’s parade outcome doesn’t need to be on a sign in this powder keg moment. ”I’ve come to wish you an unhappy birthday” is a lock for the other side.
  16. Because we’re rats continually opting for the dopamine hit of anger and resentment instead of doing the tougher work. Because moneyed interests draw strength when we’re divided and not advocating for the 99%, so their effective propaganda networks foment discord. Because Bob Stoops.
  17. On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century Nothing like a little light summer reading!
  18. How I wish LEO had been so tough in Uvalde.
  19. I wish Deion the worst football-wise, but hope his health improves.
  20. The Guns of Austin works nicely.
  21. Hakeem was my favorite as a kid. I once mailed a letter inviting him to spend Christmas with my family. Years later I realized he probably wasn’t into the whole Christian holiday tradition. Who knew being Muslim was a thing? Signed, ignorant Suburban White Boy
  22. Russian trolls are at least presumably compensated. This act is just a sad cry for attention.
  23. John Lucas was fun to watch. Terrific vision.
