I am currently the embodiment of the This Is Fine dog.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Ack, I had to get away from FB because it's wall to wall Trumplian outrage, and it's here too.
Not that I blame anybody for talking about it.
But it's hashing my mellow. Living in Trump's America is stressing me out daily.
I suppose I should work.

Yeah, I expect he said "That's not going to work" within earshot of a Trump person.
And since we don't have a secretary of commerce, I hear Trump will be negotiating trade deals with PM May in the UK. Given his many bankruptcies, I expect we'll be singing God Save the Queen within six months.
Actually, that looks like a best case scenario.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
But it's hashing my mellow. Living in Trump's America is stressing me out daily.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

All because of pressure from the border patrol agents' union. They hated him because he didn't come from within. JFC, he was career FBI, not the CEO of Amnesty International. This is the same union that came out FULLY in Trump's corner very early. He's going to do anything they want.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I sometimes think Mr. S(who is 18 months old) has more maturity and is better behaved than Trump.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Given his many bankruptcies, I expect we'll be singing God Save the Queen within six months.
So he's selling us out to Russia and Britain at the same time?

Something I hear from Dem officials and President Obama as well is encouraging people to run for office if they want to change things. How the hell does an ordinary person run for office? How many people can just drop their job to do that? It's not a bad thing to say, and maybe it can encourage some people who are in a position to do that, but it just seems so impractical for most people.
