Am I wrong for wondering what would happen is someone sitting at the thermochormic table and bench farted? I saw the auto mechanic remakes of the Renaissance paintings the other day. Incredible! Good thing the Nazis have fat people lined up just in case they run out of POC, Jews, gays and Muslims to hate. Those pictures of 18-year-old Keshia Thomas protecting a KKKlansman were so powerful. I got chills looking at them. Your countdown can't go fast enough. This weekend has filled me with disgust. The mask has been torn off. I never want to hear about how Twitler's election had anything to do with jobs and economics. It was about hate and intolerance. Like I said over at The Raisin, fuck the protesting bigots and fuck all the Rethugs and assholes that voted third party who made Twitler and the Rethug majority possible.
Nonnie: About the thermochromic table, now you've got me wondering what that would look like. I'm sure it's been done.
I expect that most of the remainder of that countdown will be presided over by Pence after Trump is impeached. I won't be dropping it then, though. He wouldn't have been VP if not for Putin.
