This circus freak show is so ugly

I've been going back and forth between MSNBC and CNN, on mute, reading the updates without having to listen to the idiotic commentary from talking heads. CNN posted Stormy said something, and the jury didn't laugh. MSNBC posted the same exchange, and said there was laughter in the courtroom.

This testimony and the defense bullshit is literally making me sick. The female defense attorney (supposedly) said to Stormy, "You're making this up..." Utterly sickening. And while I'm reading this disgusting garbage, the muted taking heads, all women, are smiling and joking and laughing. WTAF.

One woman guest on MSNBC was all giddy breathless school girl saying that this is the aggressiveness *rump has been waiting for from his attorneys, and she knows he's loving this...my gawd, I wanted to slap her.

I'm just venting, I know this means nothing, I just feel absolutely sick inside.

World Central Kitchen
@WCKitchen

WCK has established a network of over 60 Palestinian-led kitchens across southern and central Gaza to support displaced people. Today in Rafah, children picked up bean and beef stew at one of our community kitchens to take back to their families for iftar.

Feeling overwhelmed?

Life kinda sucks right now. I had a horrible weekend and it's not getting better but then I found this little sweety in my timeline.

Soul cleansing and heart touching.

Just a Rant over NFL "Honors" Last Night

The bias against the Buffalo Bills was glaringly obvious.

Dion Dawkins was nominated by Buffalo for the Walter Payton Man of the Year award. They showed less than 10 seconds of film of him.

Damar Hamlin died on the field in Cincinnati and came back from the dead but Flacco got off his couch and won come back player of the year.

Coach Sean McDermott wasn't even nominated for coach of the year, but what exactly did Stefanski do to win? "Coach" the couch potato?

What a load. I wasted two hours watching my team get disrespected over and over.

The half dresses the token women wore were stupid and ugly, too.

"Josh Allen accounted for the most total yards (4,830) and the most total touchdowns (44) in 2023.

Lamar Jackson ranked 6th (4,499) and 9th (29) in those categories yet won the MVP. "

We WERE robbed.


Well....I've noticed the NFL world has turned something fierce on Bill Belichick, when not so long ago he was considered the GOAT.
