Syfy Channel is hittin' it!

Just ended "Channel Zero: No-End House"...




...will be followed by "Channel House: Butchers Block" in 2018, with some familiar faces.




Meanwhile, we can get "Happy!" in a psychotic sort of way.

Many Voters Dislike Trump's Cuts to Health Insurer Subsidies



But voters more likely to view Democrats, Obama as responsible for the Affordable Care Act

Source: Morning Consult, by Jon Reid

Morning Consult/Politico Poll

*****

Though the Trump administration’s action could impact millions of people who get coverage through Obamacare, most voters agree that former President Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress – not Trump or congressional Republicans – are most responsible for the state of the ACA.



*****

That sentiment transcended party lines, with 61 percent of Democrats and independents agreeing with 78 percent of Republicans that Obama is most responsible for the current state of the 2010 law.

*****

Even as some members of Congress push to stabilize the ACA, voters appeared confused about what exactly Congress has done on Obamacare. Nearly a fourth (24 percent) said Obamacare has already been repealed in part, and another 15 percent of survey respondents said the law has been repealed in full or repealed and replaced. (Forty-five percent correctly noted that Obamacare has not been scrapped or replaced.)

marilynmanson Scott Putesky and I made great music together. We had our differences over the years, but I will always remember the good times more.

Everyone should listen to “Man That You Fear” in his honor. That was our favorite.

Bowe Bergdahl's Sentencing Delayed Over Trump's Comments

Source: NBC News, by Morgan Radford and Corky Siemaszko

The long-awaited sentencing of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl was delayed Monday after a legal battle erupted over the word "but" in President Donald Trump's most recent remarks about the case.

Bergdahl's defense team argued that their client could not get a fair shake from the court because Trump, during a Rose Garden appearance on Oct. 16, at first said he couldn't talk about the case and then added: "But I think people have heard my comments in the past."

Bergdahl’s lawyers argued Trump’s remarks while running for office made a fair trial impossible because as commander in chief, everybody involved in the trial answers to him.

Nance said Trump’s comments were “disturbing and disappointing” but did not constitute unlawful command influence because they were uttered before he was elected.

Sounds like what the so-called Commander-in-Chief has to say NOW makes a difference.

10-23-80.

My sobriety date.

37 years ago I entered a self-funded residential work/rehab program in San Antonio, TX, created and run by people just like me.

All I know is, "Keep coming back. It works!"
