The Sovereign Citizens have a thing to say about those Fringey Flags. I've forgotten it, though, because it's so stupid that I think my brain refused to associate with it.
Admiralty flag! You don't have to recognize the court's authority if they fly that one! But Drumpf isn't in court, nor is he at sea, so I don't know wtf is even going on anymore.
O/T but just listened to the SciFri podcast from Aug 26, live with Margaret Atwood. What a woman! I think my new fantasy is for her to tell me how poorly I'm doing things, again and again!
I listened to a radio interview with her (maybe the same one?) where she talked about the book she is having published 100 years from now:
From the Guardian: Atwood has just been named as the first contributor to an astonishing new public artwork. The Future Library project, conceived by the award-winning young Scottish artist Katie Paterson, began, quietly, this summer, with the planting of a forest of 1,000 trees in Nordmarka, just outside Oslo. It will slowly unfold over the next century. Every year until 2114, one writer will be invited to contribute a new text to the collection, and in 2114, the trees will be cut down to provide the paper for the texts to be printed – and, finally, read.
I've always admired her brilliance. Now I admire her optimism, that there will be trees, and people around to make books from them, in a century.
No.
Oooh, fringey flags!

I'm down with that fantasy.

Did he say stuff and make weird used car salesman hand gestures? Yes? Then I think I've got the gist of it.
you didn't even read the script, did you?
No. No I did not.
Fine.
He's really doubling down on the deportation thing, isn't he? Why did we allow his plane back in?
Jesus fucking christ, Hitler's got nothing on this guy. I didn't think I could be surprised by anything out of his mouth hole. I was wrong.

Ann Coulter called it the best speech she's ever heard.
DRINK!
She''s waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ahead of any of us drinky -wise..
Nah, she's a body-is-a-temple purist like tRump, I'm guessing. You don't stay sepulchrally thin like she is if you drink.
The sad thing is this: people who don't drink know that when they get up in the morning, that's the best they're going to feel all day.
Sinatra was a blowhard too.
