Morning.
You're so wordy, realist.
A simple "mornin' " would suffice.
But there's no extra charge for that last letter!
Think of the electrons that had to die to print g instead of '
The horror, the horror!
Electrons don’t die.
The experimental lower bound for the electron’s mean lifetime is 6.6×10^28 years, at a 90% confidence level. (Wikipedia)
If electrons die the universe would have been dead long, long (I mean really, really long) ago.
I hope once the pressure of being president is off of him next January, Trump finally gets the help he really needs from medical professionals. It may involve a padded room.
You mean Noble Peace Prize
Trumpism is going to live on for the foreseeable future; like a skid mark that no amount of Clorox can dissolve.
An *actual* conversation in Yuma County this week:
Me: I see the front page of The Wray Gazette says we’ve had a death in the county from COVID. Does any know who it is?
Yuman: oh, that’s bullshit. No one is dying from COVID. It’s a damn hoax.
Me: but the story includes a press release from the health department. Are they lying?
Yuman: I know someone who knew this lady. She was in her home and dead for three days before someone found her. They just called it COVID so the hospital can get a big check.
Me: wait, the hospital? I thought you said she died at home? Is Trump paying for people to die at home now?
Yuman: blink. stare. blink. stare. Well, it’s all bullshit and someone is getting paid BIG to call it COVID. Believe me.
OK, Karen.
Honest to
GodWhite Prosperity Jesus. I'm sitting here listening to a conversation between two older women at the next table (Yuma County). They are talking about the 'Nobel prize' that Ttump just got. I turned around and said 'no he didn't get any Nobel prize.' They were indignant, asking me where I got MY information.This is life east of the 104th parallel.
Believe it or not, you may have finally found that elusive location of the gateway to the alternate universe.

Who’d have thunk it would be at a diner near the headwaters of the Republican River?!?!?! #PrairiePizzaGate
That conjures up images of the aliens from Men in Black.
Seriously, I don't know how or if we ever bring some of these folks back to truth and reality. When propaganda wins bad things always happen (just ask Germany of the 1930's and 1940's).
There may be a great employment opportunity opening up, though – deprogramming the brainwashed. But first you have to catch them and take them to a place from which they cannot escape for a while.
Did you see this story realist? A great story of what can happen when you unplug from the underbelly:
When the Liberty Bell finally cracks more and splits open, the last one to ring it gets the “No Bell” prize. Some people are saying that, anyway.
Could the Yuman have been paid to believe the truth?
With all of the people who succumbed in NYC Cuomo and DeBlasio must have made bank.
Maybe if we pay them with Ttump $1000 bills (available here for the low, low price of $4 each. Can you believe the ROI??)

I'm sure the Butthole Surfers would approve – inspired by recent events:
Gorky that is magnificent !
Glad you liked it – feel free to share!
I like it Gorky, but what is the original song?
Pepper, by the Butthole Surfers (not embedding because the image may be disturbing to some).
My wife has been getting regular fundraising requests from Trump, probably because she sent a letter to the White House critical of Trump but the vaunted Brad Parscale data mining operation didn't make that distinction. So, each iteration of the fundraising request has said her donation would be matched by: 200%; 400%; 700: and now, 900% !!!
Funny that there is no indication who might be making those magical matching contributions. Boy, are Trump supporters f-ing stupid.
Here we go again…

China will pay for it. Right after we deposit that check for the wall from Mexico.
Has everyone else also gotten a copy of "The Epoch Times"? It was in my mailbox yesterday. Apparently, they do this periodically in various media markets.
They seem to have more money than brains. I wonder which fascist billionaire is funding the Falun Gong's HQ in New York.
Got my copy last week. A real WTF moment. You can measure the lies by the column-inch. I was freaked out just having to touch the paper.
Ditto for me re getting it last week. Kind of a worthless rag IMHO. It got added to my recycle stacks in the garage.
Seriously…what a tripe sheet. I will use mine to start fires in the ol’ Jotul!
538 Reports that the Democrats have a 75% chance of winning the Senate.
However, the two Georgia elections will go to a run-off on January 5, 2021.
What political events will occur between Nov 3 and Jan 5?
Trump loses but calls for overthrowing the election.
Some turmoil the week after the election
SCOTUS decides the fate of the ACA
Will Georgia run-off voters be jubilant Democrats or vengeful Republicans.
I predict that SCOTUS does NOT overturn the ACA because the replacement would be much more generous and universal. Too bad, because that would probably throw the Georgia Senate seats to the Democrats.
Are people watching the Biden town hall tonight?
Biden town hall: https://youtu.be/9ZZzfrapNvo 428,000 watchers as of 7:11
The Trump town hall? (probably not). I couldn’t stand to watch him rant for one minute, let alone 90. But as of 7:12 pm, it had 104,030 views.;)
I watched long enough to hear him answer a serious, respectful question about police violence towards racial minorities with his old canard about having done more for African Americans than any other president. ugh. Click.
The sad thing is that in our Fear Leader’s steroid-warped brain, this is a legit “ratings war”.
He’s losing.
BTW, he did make some news: he refused to denounce QAnon.
Maddow on MSNBC, NBC’s affiliate, seems to be confining herself to fact checking the FL’s lies.
I watched dump because I am a firm believer in Sun Tzu.
How else could you be prepared to dine in Yuma county w/the the Men in Black aliens who congregate there near the gateway to the alternate universe?
Rachel is doing a great job fact checking and soon she is going to interview Ghouliani's daughter who just endorsed Biden.
Nielson ratings, based on their standard collection process. Results from the selected Nielson families (if you don't know how it works, you almost certainly are not a Nielson household).
On-line streaming is measured a bit more directly. Streams from major sources are measured as "hits", and then there can be monitoring for on-going connection time.
One source for ratings: https://tvline.com/category/ratings/
TV ratings coverage will look like:https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/tv-ratings-tuesday-sept-29-2020-presidential-debate-1
I miss simpler times, times in which we could kick back and enjoy a nice, wholesome story about an office holder resigning in disgrace over sexting with a female reporter untroubled by the presence of a QAnon whacko.
Meanwhile just seven miles downstream from the headwaters of the Republican River, Sasse is saying the quiet part out loud:
Sasse blasted Trump in constituent phone call: 'He kisses dictators' butts'
