@georgetakei As someone else posted, I feel sorry for the face-eating leopards in MTG's case.

@alexwild Are they digging the trenches for the mass graves yet?

@georgetakei He's not talking to himself or anybody else except Trump.

Who's old enough to remember Randy Newman? File under everything old is new again.

@SmudgeTheInsultCat Had that been an 11yo in my family their name would forever be Captain Ravoli.

"Hey, Rav, don't leave your cutlass on the floor..."

Current mood: Leonard Cohen, Nevermind.

"I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not hate
I tried, I failed
You turned me in
At least you tried
You side with them whom
You despise

This was your heart
This swarm of flies
This was once your mouth
This bowl of lies
You serve them well, I'm not surprised
You're of their kin
You're of their kind"

Scissor Dance: Talk To The Glove

A #scissordance is a #collage cut and pasted the old fashioned way, with scissors, glue, and a stack of old magazines. #collageart #notai

@samlitzinger By “monitoring” you mean posing.

So, the doomscroll was churning through the same few gobbets of calamity, so I put it down for a bit and read Hamlet instead, to cheer myself up. Its fardels are bearable.

@w7voa It's not so much the Fog of War as the Fog of Trump.

@w7voa US officials always tell the truth.

@AkaSci How many B-2s (2 bunker busters per bomber)? How many bunker buster bombs does the US have in inventory? How many bunker busters would it take to penetrate Fordow?

I would put strong emphasis on "Trump *says*" and await for further reports on what actually happened.

(No no no no, no no no no)
Are you crazy? (Are you crazy)
It's a very dangerous thing to do exactly what you want

Because you cannot know yourself
Or what you'd really do

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah)... etc.

And so we cannot know ourselves
Or what we'd really do

With all your power
With all your power
With all your power
What would you do?
With all your power (With all your power)
With all your power (With all your power)
With all your power (With all your power)
What would you do?

(No no no no, no no no no)
If you could make your own money and then give it to everybody
Would you do it?
(No no no no, no no no no)
If you knew all the answers and could give it to the masses
Would you do it?

The Yeah Yeah Song

If you could blow up the world with the flick of a switch
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
If you could make everybody poor just so you could be rich
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
If you could watch everybody work while you just lay on your back
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah)
If you could take all the love without giving any back
Would you do it?
(Yeah yeah yeah...

This photo of protesters fishing for cops with donuts reminds of an old video of the Flaming Lips track The Yeah Yeah Song.

Van Gogh painted the sun. Actually, astro-photographer Andrew McCarthy captured the International Space Station passing in front of the sun.

"tl;dr they treat actual humans as a prompt not giving them what they want"
