Yesterday on Malcolm’s show (Malcolm himself wasn a plane so it was just Wajeeh and Jacob), Jacob said there was a statement released from Iran to the effect that once they realized the Canteloupe Ceazy is ceazy, they have hired a psychiatrist to read his offers and tweets (or “truth”s) and advise them how to respond, and there is a noticeable improvement for them. (Maybe our media should try this?)

No surprise here. The question was what is was because of course it was. Some of the details may be new.

There is a lot to deplore here – like the prevalence of “Active Clubs’ in Europe, and their activities. But there are also some things to like. Of course, the big three things which are dedicated to destroying both democracy and decency are racism, misogyny, and oligarchy, and this addresses only one of them. Not that I know the secret of how to address all three at once – because i don’t. If anyone does ever figure that out, that person will be a world hero on the level of a demigod(dess).

Colorado Public Radio. I totally get the initial errors. It is the failure – I should say the flat refusal – to correct it that is so egregious here. (I might add that Jeffco Public Schools serves roughly 81,000 students across 145 schools. This is not a small town or rural operation.)

Yesterday, Robert Reich published his first post in his new series on Project 2025. Also, the names of the two Trump** staffers who accosted the cemetery employee were learned and released by NPR and you can probably find them just about anywhere now. Left Action alreade has a petition to prosecute the one who got physical (Michel Picard – Jen Luc and Patrick Stewart would both be disappointed.) Finally, since Wonkette and Talking Points Memo and others are recommending Joyce Vance as the authority on the meeting in Judge Chutkan’s courtroom regarding the election interference case, the least I can do is provide the link.  Oh, and one more thing — not only is Liz Cheney voting for Harris – so is her father.

Wonkette is not exactly noted for good news, but it was Wonkette which referred me to this story, which made Rebecca (Wonkette owner and editrix [her term]) cry (I don’t know how hard that is – she comes across as pretty tough, but she wouldn’t run the project if she didn’t give a damn about others.) Why can’t all people act like this?

I know everyone who reads here loves animals. This story is something I had not thought about, but now that I know it exists, I can see how badly it is needed. It didnn’t happen in my home – but many substance abusers, including alcoholics become so impossible to live with that human loved ones leave before they hit bottom. And then it’s the animals who are vulnerable.
