Modesty Blaise was supposed to be a ‘refugee’ raised in ‘the Middle East.’ She could be Kashmiri, Afghan, or Iraqi.

I’d do it with two actresses; a fifty-something Modesty narrating her life story and a younger actress for the early years.

Quentin Tarantino and I [and probably a lot of other folks] came up with the idea of setting the next Bond back in the 1960s.

Reagan loved to talk about ‘deregulation’ when what he was really talking about was letting businesses steal from consumers.

Here’s a trick I like.

Get a liter sized container. Any time you chop veggies put the unused bits in the container and freeze it. When it’s full use that to make soup stock.

It’s not waste, it’s compost.

Any leftover food stuff can be turned into useful fertilizer. Check you local community to find people who collect it.

Separate your trash and store it in an airtight container.

First off, I voted for Harris,

Maybe lead with that next time?

Putin doesn’t even have to ask him.

The most insane thing about Trump is how much of a weakling he is. All he had to do was demand $50 billion from the Saudis on Inauguration Day 2016 and he could have sailed along without a care. Instead he decided the smart thing to do was chisel his supporters for nickels and dimes.

I can only hope that Biden opens the flood gates and sends as much as possible as quickly as possible.

So, now we’re looking at genocides in Gaza and Ukraine and the possibility of mass arrests in America.

Congratulations.

If people die because of your moral stand, it’s not really that moral.

Most of the time when you destroy the system you get a much worse system.

Iran got rid of the Shah and got the current freedom loving regime.

The Russians kicked out the old Communist Party and got a KGB trained billionaire in charge.

Well, I’m in the polar opposite of Bumhole, Australia.

Good luck with your endeavors.

Invest in yourself.

If you like the job you have, see what career training will help you advance.

If you don’t like the job, invest in figuring out what career you do want.

So, now those voters have genocide in Gaza and a new one in Ukraine, plus the people who are dying because they can’t get medical abortions.

Great job.

I can’t upvote you enough.

I’ll see your 1984 and raise you a 1976.

From a 1976 movie, Network.

I’m a native New Yorker. All the best places here are also getting grabbed up by rich folks from overseas.

None of the rich care about things like nations or peoples. There’s them and the peons who serve them.

Back in 2016 they did a panel of all the creators of the TV political dramas. West Wing, Veep, Scandal, House of Cards, and all the rest.

All the creators said the same thing; if they’d had a character who said he ‘liked soldiers who didn’t get captured’ the networks and advertisers would have demanded that character be shown to be hated by all Americans.

Protests don’t mean anything, and strikes just get played as ‘The Left doesn’t care if you get to your job.’

Back in the 1970’s a guy named Jerry Falwell created the Moral Majority. They had a simple tactic that worked really well. Any time there was a GOP event the MMs would show up with more people. If there had been twenty people in the room the last time the local GOP chose a county clerk, the MMs would be there with fifty.

The primaries are two years away. Find a good candidate for the House and get to work.

I got to watch him go from local joke to national menace.

I have had a decade of this, and I still can’t wrap my mind around the fact that anyone could look at that creature and see anything but garbage.
