as my mother might have said,
the truth isn’t in him
and a lot of Republicans think So What?
the bar was lowered with Jim Jordan,
Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert
so it makes sense for Mr. Santos—or is it Devolder—
to remove the bar and toss it in the House trash bin
>
he played a role (actually, several)
he got the votes
he gave professional lie detectors the slip
and he’ll vote to kneecap your future
as Kevin McCarthy does nothing
and cable news pours water from a deep well
of George Santos Refuses to Resign stories
two fifteen year-olds on their only date
were waiting for a theater box office to open
and window shopped at the Woolworths next door
>
the then-popular family TV series THE WALTONS
became a topic of conversation
she said “Don’t tell me you like THE WALTONS”
he, not listening to what she was really saying,
responded with light talk about how the show had
mountains and clean air, basically escapist stuff
>
decades later, he realized she was struggling
with unhappiness and other people’s expectations
and he wished he had said something different,
something which could have formed a lasting friendship
he thinks he’s Rocky
fifteen rounds and still standing
hollow victory
As of this writing, I haven’t seen several of the awards season predetermined favorites, but this should change between now and mid-January:

Below is the measured account of Herschel Walker’s electoral defeat. But “soul searching” is wishful Grey Lady journalism: Republicans will wait until the spring of 2024 in hopes that Trump will be enough of a wounded mastodon before opting for either the odious Ron DeSantis or a return to Bush-era dog whistling to straddle both the moneyed don’t tax us establishment and the easily duped. knowledge-averse Trump base. And “tether itself” means “chain tightly in hopes of repeating the same playbook but praying for a different outcome.’
NYT: “Mr. Walker’s loss will almost certainly lead to soul-searching for a Republican Party that must decide heading into the 2024 election how firmly to tether itself to a former president who has now absorbed powerful political blows in three successive campaign cycles.”
they come easier at my age
don’t know if it’s from staring too long at a tablet
maybe it’s flashbacks from the irresolvable past
perhaps a reminder to enjoy and not dread the future
Mel dug a deep hole
so Kanye could dig it deeper
both using Jesus as a Holy Shield
>
Jesus voices his disapproval
but Mel still has a career
and Kanye keeps setting fires
>
people freeze in place
say can you believe this
think they’re insulated from danger
