So as I sat here drinking my morning coffee and perusing the postings..this image came to mind. A 2 year old boy ..dressed only in a diaper......stuffing the toilet full of lego blocks, action figures and other toys and underwear and trying desperately to flush them all down and crying and red-faced when caught and asked what he is doing.

@journeywithme2. No need for interpretation of this one. :-). Thank you for posting it.  Although I've known many two-year old boys who were smarter and kinder than the one in your vision. 

When I was nine years old, sitting at my spot at the Sunday dinner table, I heard my father disparagingly speaking about someone and say they were acting like a nine year old.  Well! I was insulted, and rightfully so!

@laura-f One of my all time favorite songs!

Ooh child
Things are gonna get easier
Ooh child
Things'll get brighter
Ooh child
Things are gonna get easier
Ooh child
Things'll get brighter
Some day, yeah
We'll put it together and we'll get it undone
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day, yeah
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter
Ooh child
Things are gonna be easier
Ooh child
Things'll be brighter
Ooh child
Things are gonna be easier
Ooh child
Things'll be brighter
Some day, yeah
We'll put it together and we'll get it undone
Some day
When your head is much lighter
Some day, yeah
We'll walk in the rays of a beautiful sun
Some day
When the world is much brighter
Some day, some day, some day, some day yeah
We'll put

I just cannot get enough of this four seasons thing. This is just the Gods having a laugh at his expense. The self-proclaimed billionaire enters the political arena on an escalator with huge fanfare, and exits in the parking lot of a small landscaping business facing a porn shop(with "booths" according to signage). You can't make this crap up. It's priceless.

The way I see it right now, here is where we are with the Great Unraveling.

Currently a kitten is stalking a ball of string staring at it intently, eyes wide open.

Shortly, the kitten will pounce and that string ball will unwind itself as it is batted  across the house, over sofa pillows, under the table, through the kitchen and criss crossing throughout the bedroom.  

Wait for it.

 

Yeah, and then the hard work of knitting that string into something coherent can begin.  Time to roll up the proverbial sleeves!

The Four Seasons Landscaping thing is like an episode of Veep.

Just watched the victory speeches. KH sounded like the nice teacher at the assembly - I think we all get pizza next week! And Joe, well, it's nice to hear full sentences again, especially in a conciliatory tone.

At about 7pm here my husband said "Feels like it's ten o'clock already." I replied, "Yeah, but 10 o'clock on Christmas Day night."  Time for rest.

Me too @mas1581.  Straight out of The Onion, but it really happened, didn't it?

@mas1581 And a crematorium across the street. Oh, the symbolism. Death throes. Base instincts. Going down in flames. It’s all there. 

Its hard to to believe that Four Seasons thing really happened. I read somewhere on Twitter — a journalist— that they used that landscaping venue to help 45 save face after he prematurely tweeted that they’d be at the FS Hotel. The hotel wasn’t having it, so they found some other place called Four Seasons. Lol. No way to know if that’s actually how it all unfolded. 

Why couldn’t they have just said it was a mistake and have their little press thing at 45’s golf club, or his DC hotel? Or the WH? lmao. My guess is that the orange infant was having a trumpertantrum, and he wouldn’t settle for anything that wasn’t labeled “Four Seasons.” smh  There were so many other choices! 

Can you imagine the advance team getting there and being like, “Yeah, this could work. Get a whole bunch of signs and plaster them on this garage door. Find some duct tape, stat! Cameras will just focus here and no one will be the wiser.” Can’t you just hear them self-congratulating and high-fiving all over the place? Hahaha! 

After his people have spent all of that time time calling the media “fake”, and I think the camera operators relished showing the truth. 

He doesn’t even have the B Team anymore. This is more like the D Team.
