Independence Day. For what it’s worth. Those in the know will have mixed feelings about today, but you know who you are, so I don’t need to go into it. We can only hope that this year’s election will be fair and honest. Who the Marxistcrat candidate will be, remains to be seen. If Biden is persuaded to drop out, there isn’t much to choose from. It’s grotesque actually, but that’s the fucking mess these idiots made. They get what they fucking deserve.
George’s HQ is just up the road from where I’m sitting.
I had to laugh today when I was looking at a Facebook post of someone I used to know. It was a New York Times Article about Biden’s mental state. Someone commented, “Times is very pro Trump. What do they say about DTs nonsense.” The Times is very pro Trump?? Since fucking when? Of course this was an Aussie talking. Some of these morons have barely an idea of what day it is. The New York Times has never been pro Trump since 2015. It’s Thursday for the record, but it’s Friday down there. Maybe because they exist in the future, the Times has become pro Trump then. We just don’t know about it yet. I hope they’re enjoying their kings and queens in any case.
Where does one get a hat like that?
Up here in New York State the fireworks have been going off all week. They will intensify today and keep going for days afterward. When the fake pandemic was happening they went on for days, people were so bored. There is going to be a lot of BBQ-ing and a lot of beer drinking today. There’s probably some sporting events too. Who could forget Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest in NYC? It’s the 101st this year. There will be Major League baseball games all day, and Wimbledon (in the UK, so it doesn’t count really). If you want to watch something good in that place, they’re having a general election today. Should be a blowout. Glastonbury has just finished, so I might try and watch some of the replays. I’d particularly like to see Russell Crowe’s performance. Every thing I’ve seen him and his band do, looks to me like a mediocre cover band. He can afford the best musicians, but you can’t buy a thrill, as Steely Dan would say.

Band practice was pretty good yesterday, if I do say so myself. Unlike Russ, we aren’t a cover band. It’s beginning to sound like some kind of professional Rock and Roll outfit, which is mildly disturbing. The big problem I have is thinking of a name. Jon and Rick want me to use my name, but I’d rather not. I’d prefer to be anonymous. Maybe we could call it anonymous? Fucked if I know. It’s a pain, but I’m sure I, or someone else will think of something eventually. Every band I’ve been in, someone else has come up with a name for it, with a couple of exceptions. I’m good at everything but coming up with a band name.
Miss Firecracker.
To finish up with this, it’s truly nuts, but it’s real. Yale history professor Timothy Snyder said on X that “Unless Trump loses, America ends,” The prof shared a warning on X about what will happen if presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump wins back the White House in the 2024 election. This fool is apparently a “Tyranny Expert”. What is a tyranny expert, you might ask. Tim wrote a book called “On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century”, that’s what makes him a tyranny expert, and you’re not. His argument is not only breathtakingly idiotic, but it’s the opposite of reality. This minimalist, ridiculous and feeble story on the Huffpost was written by someone called Lee Moran. I can’t even…
Happy Independence Day.
Nobody does it quite like Brother Ray.
