Political detox

 You have your news junkies your weather junkies and your political junkies.  My late uncle would park himself into a nice recliner and watch the 5 o'clock news then the 6 o'clock news which was simply a rehash of the 5 o'clock news.  Water main break in Brooklyn story 2X.  He was extremely well-informed.  You don't need to check the weather on your phone just ask an old person.  They'll tell you the exact time the rain is coming.  Politics.  I was away from blogging for about 3 years and when I came back people had to explain to me why Matt Gaetz is a bad person.  The political junkies let's say they had to go to detox.  No Trump news or politics for a whole week.  Read a mammal book.  They wouldn't survive.  "Trump soiled himself at a press conference."  No we got some honey badger videos for you.

Bibi got Trump into a real pickle with the Strait of Hormuz and Iran.  Sometimes best friends pull you down.  Bibi never met a war he didn't like.  I think Trump is looking for some kind of exit strategy but he has to save face.  Israel First been there done that.  Doesn't care about the average American.  Still waiting for my tariff rebate checks.

The straw that broke the MAGA'S back

 Wondering if Trump/Hegseth depleting our stockpiles will be enough to obliterate the remainder of his base what's left of it anyway.  'Tis an issue of national security.  I'm thinking even MAGA has its limits.  Not to worry though the POTUS says we still have massive amounts left.  Rule of Thumb - always take the opposite of what Trump says.

Let's get back to serious and normal governance. 

What would we do without Trump?

 We are all Trumpaholics right now.  It would be nice if we can get back to discussing real solutions to real problems.  The doddering old man is a diversion.  Can we somehow get back on track?

CERN pushed us into another reality and a higher tax bracket

 At work someone told me towards the end of the year the AI will be making our work schedules.  What could go wrong?  What's next RoboChef? 

Wondering what would happen if I put catnip in my pipe.  Cats be coming from Brooklyn.

They shut down the LHC in Switzerland.  Don't know for how long.  Maybe too many neutrinos were hitting Trump's brain.

The POTUS has paused the bombing of Iran.  Wild conspiracy out there going viral that  Hegseth is depleting our stockpiles.  Fiji may be able to attack us someday.

Whatcha got?

Random thoughts on Dr. Anthony Fauci

 Because of the Rand Paul Senate Hearings.  Fauci - not a fan never was.  Helped kill scores of gay men during the height of the AIDS epidemic by pushing the dangerous drug AZT.  FF to Now.  WHO writes their personal thoughts in the form of a diary on a government computer?  Perjured himself once before Congress by denying his agency funded extremely dangerous and controversial gain-of-function research at that virology lab in Wuhan China.  Once wrote in a paper that the research was important enough to risk a global pandemic over.  Early on in the pandemic the intelligence community was coming around to the conclusion the SARS-COV 2 virus probably  came from a lab leak and then Fauci met with CIA senior officials and quashed this angle.  Some of his diary entries reveal a massive egomaniac narcissist etc. etc.  He is a man of such sterling moral virtue that Uncle Joe decided to preemptively pardon him before leaving office.  During the Senate Hearing he invoked the 5th 111 times!  Virtue should be loquacious in its own defense no?  This is not a Left/Right MAGA issue as some left-wing bloggers are making it out to be.  Get off that trip.  Egad we're living in depressing times!

Just a nighttime ramble.  Should choose your heroes more carefully. 

Medical News

 I peruse medical topics from time to time.  You often click Images naturally.  People who have medical conditions like they have some weird rash on their body then they become a stock medical photo they get paid for that?  "Yes we know it's flesh-eating bacteria but we have to take some quick photos for Google first."

Vitamins and supplements.  Not against but generally they don't seem to do anything for me.  Years ago the doctor said I'm deficient in D so he said get 1000 IU or something.  That was it but now Eric Berg MD on YouTube says if you take Vitamin D you also have to take Magnesium, K2 and Zinc and everything in specific amounts for the D to work properly.   Didn't know all that.  My doctor never said anything about that just pick up some D.  Who knew?  Now you have a mini pharmacy in your drawer.

Memories of my colonoscopy.  Had the propofol.  After the procedure was over best sleep I had btw I says to the medical people assembled in the room no wonder Michael Jackson liked that stuff.  Nobody laughed.  Dour group.

Trump makes TDS possible

 My Trumper friend was bemoaning the wave of Trump Derangement Syndrome or TDS sweeping the country.  I see it differently.  If you felt you were being unfairly caricatured wouldn't you go out of your way to prove people wrong?  Instead Trump does the opposite.  By his words and actions he actually strengthens TDS.  Folk called him a would be dictator so he started acting like one.  He feeds his own stereotype.  Have ICE act like goons.  Put the military on the streets.  Threaten Greenland.  Saber-rattling Cuba.  Kidnap a foreign leader.  Try to suppress pro-Palestinian speech on campus etc. etc.  I'm not being exhaustive here.  The laundry list is a long one.

Actually TDS is the only way to go.
