The Man Who Saved Cancer

Something for its own sake can be good.

Love for the sake of love is a good thing.

Change for the sake of change can be a good thing.

But profit for the sake of profit has invariably led us to ruin.

When you try to model a government after an economic system, you're leaning into disaster.

🚨 ALERT 🚨

BREAKING:

The Girl Scouts of America has confirmed that organization's support for transgender girls, and has been rejecting donations from parents and local businesses that express Anti-Trans sentiments.

Please adjust your willingness to purchase cookies from the Girl Scouts.

Picked up my order right after lunch today.

Questioning

I've said (on more than a few occasions), "Women will save us - all we have to do is stay the fuck outa their way and let 'em do it".

My intention was to acknowledge women's strength and capabilities. But apparently, in some quarters, it's not welcomed as any kind of encouragement, and has garnered some clapback.

So I'm having to reassess and recalibrate.

I didn't mean to put anything extra on your shoulders, ladies. You owe me exactly nothing.

Like I said, I've been hearing quite a bit about this. And though it's not aimed directly at me, I take their meaning. So I'm sorry. I'll try to be more mindful, and do better.


Overheard


Believing a billionaire has been embedded at the top of your government so he can act solely in the best interests of working class people requires a level of delusion that's both tragic and comical at the same time.

Bye Mitch

... and fuck you very much.

The big takeaway here is that "moderate" Republicans - if they even still exist - are totally fucking worthless.



And BTW - all Democrats who are polite, or congenial, or smile when talking to the Press Poodles about what a dangerous fuckup Trump is - primary every fucking one of them. Tired of this shit.

RFK Jr.’s Confirmation Hailed By National Alliance of Funeral Directors

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s confirmation as Health and Human Services Secretary on Thursday received a rousing thumbs-up from some of his most prominent supporters, the National Alliance of Funeral Directors.

“For years, the funeral industry has suffered as a result of the Democratic Party’s unabashed anti-death agenda,” the group said in an official statement. “We are confident that Secretary Kennedy will make death great again.”

But the confirmation drew a less enthusiastic reaction from one of Kennedy’s detractors, the worm who spent several years feasting on his brain.

“As a worm, you’d expect me to be pro-death,” the worm said. “But this is insane.”

In a more muted comment, Dr. Mehmet Oz said, “Well, at least I won’t be the biggest quack in the government.”
