Orange is the New Green
The Orange Manalishi invades our dreams and controls our destiny.
Doesn’t Biden have Presidential Executive Authority Immunity until January 20? He should use it to do nasty things to his enemies, because we know that’s what Trump is going to do.
Remembering Apartment Life
I survived Reagan 40 years ago and I can survive this. Take it, girls!
Susanna!
Belinda and Jane!
Cyndi!
(Sorry, Madonna!)
This young fellow with a sense of whimsy is a doorman at the Apthorp Building, where Cyndi lives. I’m hoping to visit a friend who also lives there when my medical status is 100% okay.
Don’t Worry. Be Happy!
I’m a retired, straight white man living debt-free in an affluent Boston suburb. I’ll be fine in Trumpworld II … right?
A Democracy Self-Destructs
Reagan’s “shining city on a hill” is no more. “Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,” should be removed from the Statue of Liberty.
“Basket of deplorables” is an odd turn of phrase, but Hillary was right. So was Obama when he said, “They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
Mother Russia Music
I consider Trump’s bromance buddy Putin to be so bad he’s something of a throwback to Stalin. Soviet-era composer Dmitri Shostakovich, after falling out of favor with Stalin, got back in Joseph’s good graces with his fifth symphony. It’s a favorite of mine, so I have that much in common with a brutal dictator. I wonder if Vlad the Invader likes it, too?
