Tuesday Cartoons: Golden Hair

I’m starting off by saying Fuck Trump!

So here’s a few new reasons why:

I'm a polio survivor. NO sadistic sociopathic malignant narcissistic sexual assaulter & accused pedophile or his roadkill eating, toilet cocaine sniffing, prior heroin addict, brain worm damaged jester should ever have control of anyone's health. We should be protected from damaged men like these.

Ok, so he and RFK Jr did this stupid shit:

I can’t believe this needs to be said, but please don’t take vaccine recommendations from Donald Trump or RFK Jr. Work with your pediatrician.This is so dangerous and will not result in reduced cases of autism.

Christopher Webb (@cwebbonline.com) 2026-08-11T02:12:43.376Z

Important: Trump’s executive order is NOT legislation. Though the executive order promotes more misinformation about vaccines, nothing has changed about the availability of childhood vaccines. For evidence-based guidance, please follow and share American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations.

There is this:

And it’s no joke, watch the video of some of the new hires here:

So Trump used a bunch of journalists and even some of his own staff as human decoys to possibly get murdered in mid-air so he could live on and make more money

Joe Biden took an hours-long secret train ride into war-torn Ukraine, and Trump got hustled away in a catering truck to get out of a friendly nation. OK.

Trump hid in catering cart to board secret flight in Turkey amid Iran threat – reports

The Guardian (@theguardian.com) 2026-08-11T02:46:31.969Z

Trump secretly changed planes using a catering container before flying out of Turkey last month due to an assassination threat from Iran, the Washington Post reports.A smaller C-32A aircraft flew Trump to Britain, report saysu.afp.com/SHd4

AFP News Agency (@en.afp.com) 2026-08-11T02:46:42.647Z

If Trump thinks the story is bad now… imagine if Air Force One had been somehow destroyed with all souls aboard, and as the world was absorbing this, he then emerged unscathed from a C-32A

Adam Weinstein (@adamweinstein.bsky.social) 2026-08-11T02:42:38.101Z

If you’re hiding in a catering truck when you control the most powerful military in the world, you aren’t winning.

h/t @svdate.bsky.social on the other site: “In other words everyone aboard the real 747 AF1 — crew, guests, press pool — was considered expendable.”what a story

Christy Somos (@christysomos.bsky.social) 2026-08-11T02:30:45.323Z

Like that is news, Trump doesn’t give a shit about anyone but himself.

Trump appeared to be golfing alongside surface-to-air missile defense systems over the weekend in Bedminster

What a fucking jerk…

NEW: Internal National Park Service records obtained by MeidasTouch’s Scott MacFarlane reveal more than $400 MILLION has been steered toward Trump’s White House and D.C. projects, while funding for major national parks is being slashed.

Nine people have been infected and five have died this year after coming into contact with warm seawater, where the bacteria naturally live, according to Louisiana health officials.

A novel—and, no doubt, fleeting—moment of self-awareness.

Mrs. Betty Bowers (@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social) 2026-08-11T00:18:21.900Z

That’s not self-awareness…he is just as clueless as always.

Some terribly sad news out of California:

I personally have been following Jackie for years. She has been an inspiration for me and countless others around the world. That she has died is heartbreaking. Please take a look at these videos. They are Instagram stories so you may have to reload the page to see them.

Sunday Cartoons: Getting Emotional

Hello. Boston Boomer and Dakinikat have been posting some informative threads lately…with lots of interesting news and updates.

I’m just going to stick with cartoons. I guess it’s because the news is so depressing. Just bear with me and enjoy the political commentary via Cagle:

I think my favorite has to be the one with the poodle and the Danny DeVito…which one do you like?

Take it easy out there…this is an open thread.


Thursday Cartoons: Tiger King

Now that is funny.

Yesterday…would you believe I paid over 16 bucks for a dozen hot Krispy Kreme donuts? Well, I did. It was unexpected. When the woman told me how much they were, I almost spit. But by then I could smell them, and it was too late. I needed those hot melt in your mouth delicious treats.

The cost of everything is through the roof!

A few news items:

NEW: Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit, AI-generated child sexual abuse material in recent months. Some as recently as this week."These are ads that were reviewed, approved, and allowed to run by Meta, never encountering interference while the company collected the ad dollars."

On a private call, Todd Blanche said his goal was to make the "Dobbs decision permanent in every single state."This isn’t just a confirmation vote anymore—it’s a roll-call vote on which Senators endorse BANNING abortion in ALL 50 states.I’m voting NO.

I hope some of these aren’t repeats from last week. I don’t remember if I posted them before or not…everything starts to run into each other nowadays. You all take it easy, this is an open thread.


Tuesday Cartoons: El Pendejo

I have been so appalled with everything Trump lately. It seriously has been so disgusting, that this image above is truly on point. By the way do you know what pendejo means?

That may be what Google says it means, but it really means Pubic Hair.

And that is exactly what tRump is. A pubic hair.

So today, I have a bunch of music instagrams for you…get ready to reload the page and enjoy these live performances:

Speaking of The Exorcist, check out he original trailer that was pulled because it was deemed to freaky for the general public:

Now back to the music:

I had to throw in another Sade.

From a opera diva to some dude singing in a subway:

And here is another version is Sam Cooke’s song in a completely different context:

Now that is something totally different…

I hope you enjoyed these variety of different performances there. I guess you can see from the group of choices, I am partial to Latin and Blues…

Here is a compilation of the number one songs for the year of 1986…40 years ago!

That is crazy, innit?

And let’s end with his performance by Rita Moreno:
