Cowboy Junkies

All these Republican white men think they're cowboys of some sort, with the delusion addicts have. But They buy their mojo at gun shows or in other ways and fill their energy tanks on the petro mommy tit. 

Kiss My Ass

The ass-kissing imperative informs Trump's entire psychological makeup and view of life. Ass must be kissed. So it's America's foreign and domestic policy. Get your ass kissed when you can. Kiss ass when you must. Play the averages and never look back because you leave nothing but wreckage. 

Rich as Shit

I know what you thought. I did too or that's how I got there. But I want to live in a country where it makes you think of food first, or anything other than some fucking tech bro. 

Instant Pharma's Gonna Get You

Knock you right on your ass. Karma is on vacation. 

Surprise!

Donald Trump, Mister Central Park Five, loves blowing shit up and killing people. Surprise! I don't think he especially likes killing people but he doesn't care. Those videos, through. Things going boom. Donald doesn't do people. Not being able to make sense of himself he can't make sense of anyone else. Inanimate is more his style. Inanimate stuff doesn't get uppity and try to assert existential  equality and shit like that, when Donald knows everyone in the rest of the world added together doesn't matter, not in comparison with him. 

Vague

So much language, so little communication. So much engagement, so little engaged. My new fashion magazine, Vague, will spill into cultural criticism. Republicans, avowed haters of 'moral relativism' and modernism, are intent on fighting declining standards and ambiguity of any kind, but in a bifurcated life where good is definitive and the word means nothing. Good is definitively what they say it is. 

They're absolutists, not contextualists. Their world embraces no gray areas, but the world is gray. It's pixelated, little definitive islands of black and white, many tiny examples of right and wrong, good and evil, that add up to nothing. That add up to shit, because life is unintelligible. Stepped back the pixels disappear. All is gray. No morality. Rather, arbitrary authority -- rule by violence, force and decree.

Liberals didn't know what liberalism meant. They're finding out, as it's being defined against its opposite, compulsion and intolerance. Liberalism got hijacked like everything, and pixelated into analytical ooze and froth, compromised and corrupted by selfishness and greed meaning more for them, the already-haves who wanted for nothing, and less for everyone else. Step back. No right and wrong, a morality of manners. The little things must be right, a perfection of the parts adding up to horrors. 

Perspective is everything.

Republicans were always relativists. Big picture relativists. Relativists of the macrocosm. Liberals were relativists of the microcosm, the freedom to choose how to live within a community that provided context, latitude for self-expression, love and security. And accountability, which Republicans couldn't stand. They wanted to be predators. Without the risk. Predators in a rigged game. Rigged by nature, rigged by God. The same thing, because power is its own justification, life is shit, and nothing means anything. 

Fratwa

Pete Hegseth has issued a fratwa against the Islamic State of Iran from his office at the fraternity Delta Omicron Delta, of which he is head. Delta-O is an offshoot of Kappa Kappa Kappa which is headquartered somewhere in Mississippi. 

Slumdoge Billionaire

I say we go after the billionaires, Musk first. He's the richest, he's nuts, and he got hundreds of thousands of people killed, did all kinds of illegal shit and thinks it's fine.

Nobel Piece of Shit Prize

Yielding to Trump's insistence on having an award and from fear of being bombed the Nobel Committee has instituted the Piece of Shit Prize to placate Trump but Trump couldn't come. He was busy bombing the shit out of Iran so he sent Mike Johnson because Johnson is basically out of a job. Trump usurped all his powers and duties with Johnson's acquiescence and approval. 

Johnson offered the Committee a preachment on how they're all secularists doomed to hell and on the red heifer project to help fulfill prophecy and usher in the end times as is God's will. Johnson said he was in touch with God on a secure line so not to worry. Also that the end times would be wonderful on balance at least for those who are saved so not to worry about that either. 

Over Where?

Over where? Over where? 

Send the word, send the word, over where? 

That the Yanks are coming, the Yanks are coming

And they have no idea what they're doing over where

Man of Action

Donnie is a man of action. Or so he thinks. Actually he's an actor. 

And not a man at all. 

Nobody Is Minding the Store

Republicans were against regulation and responsible, effective government because they always wanted to loot the place.  

Bin Laden Has Won

The United States is engaging the world on his terms.

Bible Wrap

Service members participating in Donnie's war on Iran are being prepped with biblical justifications, a mantle of end-times ideology and Christian nationalism with layers of insane shit because these folks live in the matrix, an incoherent fantasy and mishmash of patriotism and Pentecostal beliefs and an alternative reality of lies. They've been hijacked by the rich and turned into killer drones. They'll die for the lies because it's all they know. There's no point reference for them outside of the lies.
