Friday Fun: Odds & Ends

I apologize for being a bit late, and this will be one of my shorter ones.  I had some last-minute, unanticipated obligations popup that I had to take care of, so just some odds & ends I quickly put together.

There are some rumors circulating that there’s a movement afoot to change our national Independence Day to November 3, 2020.

I could live with that!

CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE

While thinking about the upcoming Biden-Trump debates, I happened to recall a promise he made during the second debate with Hillary that he’d run our country just like he runs his companies.

And he’s kept his word: Out-of-control debt, no idea how to manage a crisis, millions unemployed – and yet he and his grifting family keep get richer and richer.  Trump truly has run the country like one of his businesses.

THINGS I TRUST MORE THAN DONALD TRUMP

Came across this Tweet which really had me chuckling.  But I would encourage you to scroll down through the comments, because folks kept adding additional more trustworthy things than Trump.

NOTE: You have to scroll down past the Lincoln Project entry.  

FUN WITH PHOTOSHOP

File this under “Be Careful What You Wish For”.

There’s a wizard at Photoshopping, James Fridman, who gets hundreds of pictures sent to him requesting that they be edited – with specific instructions included.

His shtick is that he takes their requests quite literally – with some funny results.

He’s quite prolific, so if you have the time you can visit his above website.  Some are hit-and-miss, but I hope these are a few of his better ones to give you a flavor of his work.

  1. Sometimes the spur-of-the moment thrown-together ones are the best, and I would say that’s true here.  (And I wondered at the time why anyone would want him to run the country like his businesses – or like any business.)

    I would trust a sea slug before Trump*.  The blue dragon variety.  (If that’s too obscure, make it a copperhead.)

    I’ve seen bits of James’s work around and about the web, and I too love the way he thinks.  (Psst, tattoo lady, spelling does matter.)  thanks so much for the link!

  2. You can trow any lose ends together and serve them this hot any time, Nameless. They went far beyond a giggle.

    I trust a kiss on the lips by a maskless Republican who says he hasn’t caught the virus better than Trump.

  3. Wish they would change the date to November 3rd…I can handle that. 
    Trump just can’t and won’t…myriad of subjects and as potus. 
    I laughed, and laughed, at his ‘cognitively there’ comment. I know he was very proud of himself, as Dora pointed out. omg, hilarious! 
    James is a god-send through these times. Smile! Laugh! and Smile some more! 😉

    Great post, Nameless, you made my day a little lighter….Thanks! 

  4. Wonderful!
    I especially love Brooklyn Man’s major morning achievement!
    Wilson and Winslow are terrific!  

  5. Thanks, Nameless, I loved the photoshop and plan to steal the things I trust about Trump.smile

  6. Good one, Nameless! 04

    I’d trust a diarrhea fart more than Trump, even if it was already shit in my pants!

  7. Great post Nameless.
    It’s crazy seeing the way tRump praises himself.
    Hate to tell him that people don’t trust him one flipping bit. Like the list. 
    I got a real kick out of the Photoshop work done by James.  
    Thanks Nameless

  8. photoshopping….ha, ha,ha…..

  9. Photoshop’s one of the greatest fields for creativity I know.  

    Hoping everyone’s safe and healthy.   

    Only 100 days until the elections.  HANG IN!

  10. Fireworks in November are far less of a fire risk than in July–I could go for the change I think.
    When Arnie was governor here, he initially spoke about running the state like a business until he began learning how different it was when he proposed cutting a 100% federally funded program to balance the State budget (only means less services and not money that remains the State’s or that can be moved somewhere else at will like businesses can do–and why Trump keeps getting told it is illegal when he does it).
    Photoshop a welcome interlude to stop thinking about the heat that’s returned.
    Thanks so much Nameless!
