No matter what else, pretend it's all normal - it happens all the time - nothing to see here - it doesn't concern you - Obama did it too - everything's fine - don't get hysterical - the status quo is the problem - revolution is the only thing that brings peace...

Be Here Now
Wish You Were Here --David Gilmour
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
And how we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
And how we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
Don't take the training. Don't believe what they tell you without question. Don't go along to get along. Don't let them gaslight you. Stay woke and in the moment.
Mr Nance
Malcolm Nance is that guy in the meeting who knows what's going on, and has the balls to tell us, even while we go merrily along blabbering about anything we can think of if it keeps us from having to face up to what Malcolm knows is going on.
To stay strictly inside the parameters of not jumping the gun, we can only go so far with what we know so far, but Malcolm's a pro - and Malcolm knows Trump knows.
It's hard not to think this means Trump is on the down side of the bell curve.

Away Again
In about 6 weeks, 45* has spent more tax dollars on leisure travel than Obama spent in a year.
And why does he feel the need to take a 3-day break every fucking week?

But it feels better if we can go on pretending it was purely by happenstance.

That Creepy Feeling
"Checks and balances is a metaphor, not a mechanism."
There are some holes in this of course, but the adage holds true: "I'm not trying to describe what I see happening in the future so much as I'm trying to prevent it"
David Frum's take on Trump World:
