I hear that many MAGA supporters (and not only them) like Trump because he is a "businessman" who understands the economy (?!). Why the euphemism "businessman", when he is a capitalist, just like that other capitalist Muck, I mean, Musk, who's warming up to outright, undisguised plutofascism.The MAGA people are chumps who don't wanna see that they are supporting the rich capitalists exploiting them.

Grabbing Greenland is maybe the only logical idea that the Orange Menace has ever had, except that if Denmark has any sense at all, it won’t sell it for a bazillion katrillion quadrillion bucks. Or euros.

I always confuse Mono with Monno. I have a CD by the latter that has amazing packaging: two thick metal plates on a hinge, with a huge screw in the middle, all lightly rusted (it's super heavy)

I can't read much anymore: public transit never recovered from the mass driver firings during the pandemic, so buses and subways are packed at all hours

My good friend Joe Schrafnagel worked at the Strand many years back. He even got in an episode of “Absolutely Fabulous” that was filmed there! Sadly Joe passed away as well.

Been quiet, but listening. Like at the start, Brian said he likes rainy days. Made me think of the gong show’s chuck Barris, after Jamie Farr gongs an act. “Jamie, why did you do that? I loved that guy. Well, I also love jock itch!”.

And not familiar w book man Ben, but Wotta guy. Buddha bless him. I’ll hafta read the obit. Thx.

Happy new year to all
