I check this out to make sure Orwell actually wrote this, and yes, yes he did, in 1984. The book was published in 1949. Who knew it would so accurate, so prophetic 77 years later?

TRUTH In Spite Of Convicted Felon Mar-A-Taco tRump

From the man who gave us "Sleepy Joe", we now have "Dozing Don"!

No this is not AI. This actually happened. Say what you will about Biden but I don't recall him falling asleep in the Oval Office with a bunch of his staff around him with the media in front recording it all.

Futhermore, and more disturbing...why hasn't that self-same media made this the front page photo of every newspaper in the nation and the lead story on every single newscast?

Why? Because the 'liberal media' is a myth. It's all over by billionaires who like the obscene tax cuts tRump gave them and they don't want them to go away, so they don't criticize him. Ever.

It's a severe dereliction of their duty.

But I'm complaining about it quietly because I don't want to disturb the Snorer-In-Chief.

Night arrives with her purple legion (Part 5).....

Legion Lore

Phantom Girl

Tinya Wazzo was born on the planet of Bgtzl (yeah, you try saying that). She has the power of all her people to 'phase' herself so she can pass through things, or they can pass through her like a ghost. She was the second non-founding member. She was a member of the Legion Espionage Squad also.

Also, as an aside, she's one of the two characters who are my favorites on the team.

I've got books lining my shelves, day and night....

Tonight I ordered a couple books through www.bookshop.org. If you're going to order books online, check them out first. They don't have as huge a collection as Amazon, but the money you spend goes to help locally owned bookshops instead of into the pockets of a billionaire. Just sayin...

Very good point.

Also, if you voted for him in 2016, that may be excused as sheer stupidity. But if voted for him in 2020 and/or 2024, then that's not a mistake. That's a pattern. And it shows just what an evil horrible human being you are.

Badass Birthday

On this date, in 1942, 84 years ago, in Brooklyn NY, Barbra Streisand was born.

Surely I don't need to tell you why she's a badass. But just in case...

She's one of the few performers to have an EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony)

Her career has spanned 6 decades.

She was a gay icon to the men in the generation before me.

She's sold over 150 million records worldwide.

I'll also list the movies she's starred in:

Funny Girl (for which she won the Best Actress Oscar)

Hello, Dolly!

What's Up Doc?

The Way We Were

A Star Is Born

The Main Event

Yentl

Prince Of Tides

The Mirror Has Two Faces

She's got 10 Grammys, 5 Emmys, and 9 Golden Globes.

I'm not a huge fan of hers, tho I appreciate what she's done. But still, she's obviously a badass!

Night arrives with her purple legion (Part 4)....

Legion Lore

Triplicate Girl/Duo Damsel

Luornu Durgo was born on the planet Carggg, all of whose inhabitants have the unique ability to split themselves in three distinct bodies, and reassemble back into one body later.

She joined the Legion as the first non-founding member. She was a member of the Legion Espionage Squad. After a bit of time in the Legion, one of her bodies was killed by the evil Computo. Usually, when a Cargggite's body dies, the other two die as well. But her other two lived. And she took the name Duo Damsel. Again, she remained with the team.

After a while, she and fellow member Bouncing Boy married, and were the first Legionnaires to do so. However the Legion Constitution forbade members to be married, so the couple became reserve members. And then they later too on the Leaders, instructors and administrators of the Legion Academy.

Duo Damsel remained a reservist for the rest of her active career.

Walks 2026

Today, I took a walk. It was warm, sunny and breezy, the perfect conditions for a walk. I walked 1.24 miles in 25 minutes.

Seen on today's walk: I don't get garbage cans. I just put the garbage bag out along the curb, the trashmen come by pick it up and ba-dum ba-ding, it's all done. But some people put out the bags in cans for reasons I can't understand. Then the garbage men come by AFTER the home owner has gone to work and/or the kids to school, so you get this:
