Putin Is Afraid; Trump Weak And Stupid; 'Z' Is Still A Hero

 

"Ukraine Needs Help" by Herr D on Paint3d. Sovereignty is not something Hairy would value, as he favors coups, holding that it is every dictator's proper punishment.-Shelob


[on Herr D pointing out that Hairy is 'remarkably consistent to have a bad memory'] Hairy's opinion did actually change once. 8/15/14's episode declared a neutral view on Putin's war.

? [scrolling to check, finds, reads over] Well, he DID ask why the citizenry would care. It doesn't look like he knew anything about Putin at the time. He did not.

I pointed out Putin's horrible record on human rights, freedom, etc. and the nature of sovereignty. Dictators have to be scared to be so thuggish. This is a similar argument against America subsuming Canada or Greenland.

Well, yes, substitute incompetence and weakness in as descriptors for Trump and it's very similar as an argument. What was wrong with him there? Neurologically, it would be similar to you having a stroke and then instantly healing in a cycle multiple times. He did say your work on the subject made sense, and suspected he conflated the previous president of Ukraine and the current president of America. 

He didn't know then that Trump would have another term. He was experiencing flux. He did say Trump would be in office more than 4 years.

[pause] Well, he DID say that. What do you think about Trump's argument that owning Greenland is necessary for national security?

I think it proves Trump is weak and stupid. Biden didn't 'need' Greenland. National security was better under Biden. Less violent crime. Less leaks to the press. Agreed. And the bonehead?

Trump or Putin? Good decision. [exits]

"'Geniuses' Shouldn't Be So Stupid" Says Herr D

 

"Headcut" by Herr D on Paint3d. Do not let the net make your judgements for you, as it is unqualified.--Shelob

By bioreadings, you are not happy.

Nope. You have just watched news regarding doubling down; however, Musk was not at a casino.

[snort] No. Do you have a retort? Blogging could begin early.

[sigh] Sure. Everyone needs to start pointing out that Musk is the real traitor here. Maybe the veteran he's targeted should sue for slander. Pardons will not affect civil court?

Nope. Scanning for additional. New data incomplete. Rating does not compute.

What now? Online, three individuals have declared Elon Musk and Pres. Trump geniuses. Their decisions do not seem sane, let alone intelligent.

Yeah? Well, that's fine. They are too stupid and destructive to actually be geniuses. It is beyond their scope to repair or to ever be loved as much as Sanders and AOC. Just look at THEIR crowd sizes. Putin has to have people afraid he'll KILL them and their families to get that much applause. Trump and Musk will be despised forever by any wise person.

Kash Does Not Give Proper Credit

"Logo More Accurate Than Original," available for free from multiple websites.--Herr D


In interview on Fox, Kash Patel says he is "determined" and cares only about "the truth."

Perhaps he is on wrong network? Recently war plans were on wrong platform.

The time they put a journalist in group chat while planning a military strike, yeah. No, I don't think he chose the wrong platform. He talks of undoing weaponization of government.

That's not what he accomplished. He mentioned capture of 3 of 'Most Wanted' in first 5 weeks of office.

That's probably happened, but it usually takes thirty months to catch one suspect. How do you know this?

It was on the FBI website. They took it down about the same time bad actors took down Jackie Robinson's military record on the military history section of that other website. So he is taking credit for the last administration's efforts?

Not really. He's taking credit for the last FBI director's work and the work of the agents under him, claiming it was his leadership that made the difference. Most directors do that nonsense, except, of course, for the FBI. They normally don't appear on TV unless they've done something shameful. Has he?

He hasn't found the truth and admitted he was wrong about the 'Deep State.' He hasn't realized Trump and his cronies are doing wrong and provided that evidence to Congress. He hasn't stopped lying about how much credit he should have . . . . yeah, I guess so. But he's clearly a lawyer. He talks a good game. He's much more coherent than any of the OTHER people on Trump's side. Oh, yeah. Being on that side is kind of shameful, too. Maybe if he keeps his head down and just does the job the FBI has ALWAYS done and stops appearing on Fox, he'll have some faith from others. Right now no one but Trump fans can have much faith in him, and those are dwindling. I understand that Fox should still be under investigation for defamation and false reporting. Deliberate disinformation should be considered a terrorist act if done by someone claiming to be a journalist or news show.

Is he lying about anything you can divulge?

Every reliable source says that violent crime was DOWN under the Biden administration. Most of them agree violent crime was UP under the first Trump term and agree it is too soon to tell for certain about this one. But the hospital nearest MY workplace had to have more parking spaces for their employees just in the past two months. So I can't say people are getting injured by criminals more, but INJURIES are apparently up out of season and not to the hospital administration's predictions. So it's not looking GOOD.

Postcards From The Edge Of Dissatisfaction; Permission Included

"Postcard For Voters" by Herr D on Paint3d. Details below.-Shelob

 

Hey! You may not know anything about this blog-- Address tech specifics.

Right! [rolls eyes, mutters 'if they don't they don't care anyway'] Thank you, Shelob. If you have card stock, or old manila folders you don't mind cutting up, you have my explicit permission to print this graphic out, copy it onto card stock or half of a manila folder, then cut it out to postcard size, check the boxes that apply to you, and mail it. Mailing a postcard is relatively cheap--it's less than a regular stamp, and your current rates are posted online. Alternatives?

If you'd rather fill out a pre-made postcard, you have my explicit permission to copy my text. It isn't plagiarism if you don't claim it was all your idea. Longhand might be more obviously from different people anyway. Signing it and putting your own address on it and your own official's name and address will be important for it to get there, as well as making it obvious a live person did it. You may also print out a copy and mail it inside a letter if you'd rather at the full postage price on regular old printer paper. 

In fact, they'll have to open it to be sure you didn't mail them a check if you use security envelopes. Any precautions?

Don't cuss or threaten them. They'll think you're a wacko and not listen, because they might be deluded enough to think everyone still loves them and everything they do. Be respectful and simple and clear. They won't read a masterpiece. They WILL have their staff read it. Their staff will count the yeas and nays they get, and might even put them on a spreadsheet. Any honest staff will tell their boss those tallies.

Thank you. Thank you.

"STROKE! . . . STROKE! . . . STROKE!" Not Just A Coxswain Concern . . .

 

"Headcut" by Herr D on Paint3d. Some outcomes may be inevitable.--Shelob

[Herr D startles awake, jostling laptop, begins typing] Shelob? Here.

When Trump has a stroke, what will happen? [begins net search] Trump has selected his VP and cabinet to avoid anyone using the 25th amendment.

So he won't get taken over while hospitalized, whether he needs it or not. Yeah, but what happens when he has a stroke? Currently, many medical residents have theorized that no one will notice. He produces a surprising number of non-sequiturs in speaking, apparently has some concentration difficulties, cannot remember being of opposite opinion, and is in excessive denial of reality. At least one faculty member from Wharton, where Trump learned economics, is declaring that his current level of displayed understanding is below the passing level. Additionally, his facial expressions are not typically balanced or contextual, his publicly declared dietary choices are questionable if not directly harmful, and his temperament is conducive to excessive self-harm through denial of medical need.

Trump could have hundreds of minor strokes or even be mildly poisoned or drugged without anyone knowing.

So, we just have to worry about no one having a spine till it's too late? Dozens of people have observed that potential issue.

Yikes. [shudders] I'M not sleepy anymore. You should consider having these epiphanies when you need to be wakeful.

[snort] Yeah, right. [exits]

Trump Acting More A Traitor Than A Prez--Putin Was Right To Want Him In Office

 

"Downward DOGE" by Herr D on Paint3d. 'Throwing under the bus' is what Trump did to the GOP, when reversing their standing ovation for Zelenskyy to abandonment. Trump is fighting against Truth, Justice, and the American Way, but is not bright enough to be Lex Luthor or Miss Tessmacher. He is simply an opposite of Superman. Subman?--Shelob

You can now describe the political situation?

That orange thing is a sweater-anyone who voted Republican had the wool pulled over their eyes. They wouldn't have voted for people acting more like traitors than elected officials. 

Posting.

Why Should A Rat Guard A Cheese? A Civil Servant Has To SERVE And Be Civil, Doggone DOGE!

"Get Along Little DOGiE" by Herr D on Paint3d. "Galloping roughshod over Americans like a wannabe bull in China."-Herr D   A civil servant must be civil and not SELF-SERVING. Rich people are not the most competent.--Shelob


 Not much to say?

A pic is worth 1000 words. Post it.

Right away.

Trump Too Weak And Stupid To Say No To Putin

 

"I'm BAILING Away," by Herr D on Paint3d. Perhaps Trump really is delusional. He might believe he is doing a good job? --Shelob

You picked a title. This is not your usual demeanor.

I'm sick of him lying. I'm sick of him acting delusional. He's more out of it than he CLAIMED Biden was. He can't face the truth and doesn't want to try. It's time people start suing Musk and celebrating Z. He's more popular in his country than Trump will EVER BE IN AMERICA. Putin would never have DARED to ask Biden to act this way, because he knew Biden would act like a REAL man. A REAL president. A REAL leader. A REAL negotiator. A REAL deal maker. 

EVERYONE WITH ANY BRAINS KNOWS ALL THIS.  Is this why he is damaging the Department of Education?

[snort] No, he's just screwing up everything because he's too stupid to do a good job. I'm going to get back to work. [exits] Anyone who can make Herr D that disapproving has my disapproval as well. He has consistently been nice to all those deserving and some who may not have been. Please everyone live as best you can despite such a failure of a leader.

Death Of Humanitarian Aid, Diseased Leaders' Minds, Injured Foreign Policy; Herr D Grieves

"Isolationism," Herr D, Paint3d. Clearly Herr D is in a bad mood. Clearly Musk and Trump do not mind making bad decisions.-Shelob
 

Herr D wept at hearing the news on USAID. He has refused to chat, muttering under his breath that "with his daughter's benefits cut and his employer under negotiation, he needs to stick to employment writing." During a break, he made the pic above.

Bishop Checks President; His Lies Are Pathetic

 

"TheBiggestLie" captured and cropped from phone camera of stranger passing through public area with television. Faux News should be examined for more legal action.-Shelob

[chime over laptop] [Herr D turns toward computer from chair he had been snoring in] Has your chin lifted now?

[startle reaction, notable pulse and respiration increase] Oh, hi, Shelob. [posture change: probable leaning forward, pause] Oh. [snicker] Yeah, chin's up. Thank you for asking. Is Trump's chin up? [shows pic]

[snort] His nose is, his dander is, but his numbers are down and his chin is out. This sounds anatomically difficult.

The mental efforts to keep swimming Denial are Olympian. Can you evaluate for blog? [pans Bishop Budde's words at bottom of screen on a loop]

Sure. [magnifies pic above in separate window] First sentence. Let's see. "So-called" is an outright lie. Trump knows she's a bishop. She was introduced that way. As to being "Radical Left," I have to try to be charitable, since I'M actually religious, even if Trump isn't. She didn't actually SAY anything radical at all, so that might be him screwing up and not actually lying. The second adverbial "hard line" doesn't make much sense, since it's backing another lie. We should count it as another mistake. "Trump hater" is not what she is. If anything, Bishop Budde sounded like a caring mother giving some sane and sound advice to a young man about to start doing a difficult job that might lead him away from a righteous path. Clearly, she is showing him Christian love. If he doesn't recognize it for what it is, maybe he doesn't have any of it? No, I can't believe he's stupid enough to call someone a hater who uses the word 'plea' correctly to describe their own words. So that's a lie. What is that up to? Lies 3; Logical Errors Or Lies 2. Bishop Budde has some notably conservative views.

In one sentence. Bang up start. Okay. Second sentence. [pause] Okay, that's an odd way to write that sentence, but I'm not here to talk about inconsistency of style. She didn't "bring her church" into politics at all. Trump did just by going in. He's a president now, and, historically, pastors of every kind have advised presidents early in their terms to set the tone, to guide them. And she did so, graciously. She used the word 'plea.' So, one lie and one logical error, because he really doesn't seem aware of history or how this presidency thing is SUPPOSED to work. 4; 3. "Aware of -- or to care about?"

Yeah, that's ambiguous. In the third sentence, he wrote "nasty in tone," "not compelling or smart." That's a simple three lies. No one who actually listened to her could possibly think she was nasty in tone. Well, let me think about that. [pause] If there was someone who was too poisoned with PTSD to correctly evaluate a woman's tone . . . maybe if Trump was abused by his mother or an aunt or a babysitter, I could believe that. So, if he comes forward and says he's a survivor, we could move that one to logical errors. As to smart? She obviously was. She was articulate and correct and wise. She was the smartest person speaking on the topic. Smarter than someone who feels the need to lie about it later. As for compelling? She had the POTUS and VPOTUS -- get this -- SQUIRMING IN THEIR SEATS. They looked like two little boys trying not to admit to their mom that they just stole some cookies before dinner. 7; 3.

The fourth sentence is one of those awkward constructions again. Maybe he's trying to be smooth? He said she "failed to mention" something that she was actually referencing. So, even though that's PROBABLY an attempt to lie, I'd say it could be just incompetence again. The facts are clear. Americans kill a LOT more Americans than immigrants do. Most immigrants are NOT criminals. They're just trying to get higher-paying jobs and more opportunities. They're capitalists like our own President.  7; 4. He is a known failed capitalist.

[snort] Four bankruptcies, right. Fifth sentence? "Many were deposited from jails and mental institutions" ? Shelob? Has any immigrant actually been DEPOSITED here from jails or mental institutions?" [3.0487623 second search] No recorded cases have made any reputable news source. Checking for synonyms. [6.2946001 second search] Percentile note: fewer immigrants need mental health services than Americans.

Where does this even come from? Noted debunked statements. Including reminder in plea's content.

So, he indirectly accused the bishop of lying too? While lying? How do you count this?

Let's be charitable and only call it one lie. Budde is obviously not planning on being liked for doing her job well, so she'll maintain her Christian demeanor by not seeking revenge for him acting this way toward her. 8; 4.

Sixth sentence, obvious lie again. We'll count it as only one, though we've had more crimes committed by elected officials than by immigrants. 9; 4.

Seventh sentence. Contains a lie and a criticism that I am not even going to check on. Her comments were NOT inappropriate, and I don't care enough about an Episcopal sermon to look it up, since I'm Quaker. Lies 9, Logical Errors (that might be lies) 4, Statements not cared about 1.

I will say, if he wanted excitement, why did he go to church? Reclassification: 10; 4.

Eighth sentence? He IS stupid enough to decide that someone doing a great job is doing poorly. Speaking truth to power is always someone doing a great job, especially if the speaker is gracious enough to do so respectfully. She did the best job anyone could have done. And she wasn't even specific. She just asked him to show MERCY. She didn't tell him HOW. That's a Christian thing. 10; 5.

Ninth sentence? She and her church are OWED apologies. From Trump and everyone who criticizes her for this. And probably everyone who enables Trump to continue acting the way he has been for far too long. 11; 5. More lies than sentences. Is there anything else?

Yes. There is one more. The biggest lie of all. Part of his sign-on is @realDonaldTrump. He tells too many lies to be considered 'real' at all. Perhaps that is why his real hair and skin look so unreal.

[snort] maybe--I'm gonna go sleep some more. [exits]

Hairy Drops In For Lifting Herr D's Chin Despite Country's Ballast

 

"Weeps Into Pillow" photo by Herr D. Please feel better soon.-Shelob

Hey there!

[dropped object, exclamation, rustled papers] Hi! Shelob said you might be gone forever.

I am not.

I've missed you.

You need to not be so depressed.

[pause] y

I know that buffoon is back in office, and I know you're buried in paperwork as an indirect result, but you've gotta keep your chin out, man! [neuralink only: Up. What? Up.] Okay? Herr D, you've got to keep your chin up!

I'll do my best. I've also been buried in snow and snot.

Winter cold?

Isn't it always?

[deep-gill giggle] That's a GOOD one. So, what's all this about half-mast being violated? I don't understand what I've been reading. The ocean's not too windswept right now.

Carter's funeral. Flags should be flown halfway up instead of all the way up out of respect. Trump bellyached until he got his way. You were right again, by the way.

Of course! . . . about what?

Biden Cartered himself. He didn't get enough credit for what he did, including getting Hamas to start releasing hostages. Trump will probably get credit for everything Biden did.

Yes. Glory-hound, right? About the only thing I can say about the whole business is that Trump is full-MASSED. As a prez, he made good ballast last time.

[choking sound] y--what do you think is happening with TikTok?

That garbage? Trump demanded it, now doesn't want it. He's probably making money off it somehow.

[snort] probably--gotta go, man. More paperwork.

The appeal?

Audit.

[retching sound] I'll leave you to it. Good luck. [chatbox closes, Shelob corrects spelling error on online form, upload]

Interruption Completed, Quadrantid Coming, All As Expected

 

"Due Tuesday" by Herr D on Paint3d. Hollow victory and empty promises of what is to come rolling out. All as expected.-Shelob 

You have not blogged.

[startle reaction] oh hey Please blog? You were offline a very long time and not at work either.

yeah, sorry. You and Hairy never took holidays, did you? Holidays interrupt function. Hairy did nothing but interrupt all year.

[laugh] ok Why did you interrupt?

[pause, 49.595658 seconds] I had a holiday. I had family obligations. I had time off work. I traveled, lost my phone, forgot to charge my computer--it's been busy. Please blog?

Well, our voters blew it and put Trump in office again without even a majority. Biden is doing some last small work he can squeeze in. Congress is blundering around not doing as badly as they could. That about cover it? Yes. Thank you. Hairy may attempt emigration during Quadrantid tomorrow. Everyone please wish him luck.
