I call AI The Devil and I feel very good about the metaphor. Sure, it might cure cancer, but it might also produce biochemical weapons or viruses that make the Black Plague look like a bad rash. It's not often I find myself aligned with a Pope. Alas, here we are.

If the 1,600 convicted/pardoned Jan. 6th felons get $1 million EACH of the 1.776 BILLION DOLLARS in taxpayers' money for the ironically-named "Anti-Weaponization Act," that will be a defense budget greater than 60 countries, from Ireland to the Ivory Coast.

This need not be said, but I'll feel better after: Trump is a menace to society. A menace to the rule of law. A menace to democracy. A menace to the world order. A menace to public health, the progress of medicine and science in general, a menace to the global economy and the fucking globe itself. Did I leave any out? Oh yeah, a menace to poor people, people of color and women.

And he's also planning to arm his own private militia of 1,600 convicted Jan. 6th rioters and insurrectionists with $1.8 billion of our taxpayer money. Let's see if Congress even gets to vote on this one. How the fuck... ?

The biggest blight on American democracy right now is what SCOTUS has done to permit a frenzy of gerrymandering, the majority of which is being done/planned in Southern states and which directly targets Black voters. Why aren't we ALL outraged? Where's Big Business? https://t.co/JoHJPkmxgc

I'm a Butthole Surfers fan, but my friend is a HUGE fan and he produced this documentary. It's gotten real raves so far. The two key remaining band members will be there, Misters Gibby Haynes & Paul Leary. Psyched to see the film and for whatever happens after.

Trump complained The Pope was "weak on crime and terrible for foreign policy." Who knew that was in the job description? A moron's moron, 47 is. https://t.co/EGkhAyXkav

Somebody was thinking.

[M Dorian @MDorian00]

This is something I'm very happy to post on Palm Sunday. Pope Leo calling bullshit on Pete Hegseth's reckless and absurd claims about God being his north star or his guiding light or whatever sixth-grade metaphor he uses to justify his remote "kills."

Just back from the No Kings protest in NYC. Very impressive turn-out.

[M Dorian @MDorian00]

Good! It's about fucking time, wouldn't you say? And just the tip of the ol' iceberg.

If you want to hear a seminal post-punk band who wrote really catchy tunes alongside wonderfully-weird and ever-innovative songs, watch Wire at their peak on this German TV show from 1979. As good as The Clash, Gang of Four, Buzzcocks, Joy Division. https://t.co/ycN3Jy9PLX

I meant to add in my post here that Kash Patel had fired FBI agents who were part of a special unit dedicated to tracking terrorism in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran, a week before the attacks on Iran began.

Maybe Trump blocked vital intelligence information about Iran's terrorist cells so that over months leading to the elections, he hopes there will be terrorist attacks here so he can cancel or postponse the mid-terms. I put nothing past this dastardly motherfucker.

I just watched this. I gotta say it is a masterpiece of comedy and storytelling. No spoiler here: the way he weaves together his connection to Stevie Wonder, Senator John McCain, Aretha Franklin, '90s hip-hop culture, rapper Nipsey Hussle and FBI surveillance is nothing short of genius.

[M Dorian @MDorian00]

I guess Trump's a shoo-in for the Nobel Peace Prize now. As if all the people killed on boats and pillaging Venezuela weren't enough.

I don't know about you, but watching Olympic hockey, drinking coffee and getting stoned on a Sunday morning feels pretty decadent. Does this make me old?

[M Dorian @MDorian00]

I love this Cat Power song and even though it's got nothing to do with Jesse Jackson, she sings "Jackson... Jesse" so it's been impossible NOT to think of him every time I've listened to it. Today it sounds a bit different, now that this civil-rights giant is gone.

You know those scenes from "A Clockwork Orange" where they clamp Alex's eyes open and force him to watch numerous scenes of violence and rape?

Yeah, that's what someone would have to do to make me watch even a frame of the Melania movie.
