https://margaretandhelen.com/Do you have any idea how hard it is not to use the F-word when talking about Donald Trump? Its damn near f-ing impossible. #FactsMatter #HowToTrainYourDragon
Margaret, I know you dont Tweet unless you are talking to your parrots. And for what its worth, I told you those things would outlive us. I know you thought I was stupid to get on the Twitter. Well, I should have listened to you, honey. I came. I tweeted. And I got covered in shit. Probably because Twitter is chock-full of assholes who dont know the difference between your and youre.
Now before all you NitTwits out there write me off, read on for a little bit. There are some things that are good about Twitter. Most are not easy to find, but theyre there if you are willing to work a bit. Ill explain
On Friday, a jackass named Roger Stone whined that the FBI had raided his home leaving himself, his dog, his wife (in that order) and even his neighbor forever traumatized. From his description, its hard to believe he was able to pull it all together in time to make a speech, do a few radio interviews, and then finish it off with a couple of cable news shows, all while hoping someone would ask him about how he once took out personal ads referring to himself as a body builder with a hot wife looking for muscular studs for threesomes. Yep. True story. Stone is a real asshat.
But Ive gotten off track. This really isnt about Roger Stone. However, I would like to take a second to point out that while he was kicked off Bob Doles campaign for his little trio fetish, he was eventually hired again by George W. Bush and, of course, Donald J. Trump. In fact, given enough time I can probably prove that while not every asshole is on Twitter, they are all on a Republican payroll somewhere.
Anyway, back to the point of this story
Much more at link. Epic takedown of tRump, GOP, a shout out to Nancy P, and more

(115,681 posts)It does bother me that what was once considered the most intensely offensive swear word in the English language is no longer adequate to express the depths of my loathing when I am discussing Donald Fucking Trump.

My use of obscenity has skyrocketed since the stolen election of 2016.

(34,857 posts)I guess anything is possible but Helen was 81 when the blog started back in 2007 and I'd assume so was Margaret, or around there. Seems unlikely someone in their early 90s would be going this strong ... tho, anything is possible.

(42,307 posts)Nancy Pelosi is one hell of a leader despite the fact that we require her to work twice as hard and endlessly prove herself worthy of her job. Nancy isnt just matching Fred Astaires dance moves step-for-step backwards and in heels, shes reminding the entire world that if women were allowed to take the reins, some important shit could finally get done. For the love of God, you MAGA asshats, she is the reason you have anything even close to affordable healthcare and a living wage. And if not for your precious GOP, you would have gotten the whole enchilada. I probably shouldnt have used that enchilada metaphore. Did someone say wall?
