Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

 Okay, so having a broken rib sucks. I'm lucky it's not multiple. I can't get over how it feels when I move. Yuck.  The sun is out and so everyone here is happier. Weird how that works. I never cared so much about the weather until we moved back to Illinois. Tornado season is coming. We only had a few scares last year. I'm hoping it's the same this year.  Here are your highlights: 10 Democrats voted to censure Rep. Al Green . Primary every single one of them.  DOGE is here. DOGE plans to close six locations in Central Illinois . Again, none of this is legal, yet everyone is acting like it's normal. This is like throwing a pebble in the ocean. Just tax the rich. Canadians are canceling trips  to the US. Good for them.  Climate Change is real. We see the effects daily across the globe. And yet Republicans are still in denial . China states it's ready for any kind of war  - this is beyond alarming. We need less from the Elissa Slotkins of the Democratic P...

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 I couldn't do it. I couldn't watch the terrible man speak for more than five minutes. He lies so much. He's an awful orator. And AND AND Republicans are sadistic. Who cheers on cuts to the poor? To the vulnerable? To those with the least? The cruelty is the point. It's hard to believe anyone could cheer on Trump, but here we are. Millions voted the scum in and now millions will pay the price. We've got to fight and it won't be done with auction signs .  Here are your highlights: Self-awareness is not Trump's strongest suit.  Allergies! It's getting worse it's not just me thinking so. SCOTUS rules Trump must unfreeze foreign aid . No surprise Alito is a piece of shit.  Tariffs . How they'll hurt Americans. OPM is gradually reversing mass firings.  This is something to watch closely.  Bizarre behavior. Trump administration wants to sell Federal buildings .  Mark Warner. ReTIRe.

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 It's here. The Orange Menace will speak to the nation . Six weeks into his chaotic and tumultuous second term. If any Democrat claps for anything he says, primary them. Norms and decorum don't matter anymore. Disrupt. Distract. Disengage. It will drive Trump nuts. I'm not sure I'll be able to watch the whole thing. I can't listen to him talk for over five minutes without throwing shoes at the television, to those who can, I salute you.  Here are your highlights: I want to live in this home . TARIFFS FOR ALL. Truly one of the dumbest economic choices in a long time.  Israel keeps on war criming .  People watched Jurassic Park and learned nothing. Woolly Mouse . Ending the Department of Education . Rwanda and the Congo. The next great African war? I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

Get Your Dunkin' Monday

 It was a slow weekend as my broken and bruised ribs have made it difficult. I hear my rib move and it makes me a bit nauseous. Luckily our girls are chill and just want to be near their daddy. Even if it means watching a show in bed.   The world is once again on fire . Or is it always on fire? It seems that way. Now that we are no longer the United States of America but the United States of Russia , I'm torn about which flag to fly. I'd laugh, but it's no laughing matter. Trump and the Republicans are now an arm of the Kremlin. "No Russian collusion." We all owe the Krassenstein brothers an apology. Here are your highlights: Private spacecraft lands on the moon . No Cuomo. Please NYC. No . Irony is dead. RFK Jr. is telling folks to vaccinate their kids.   Complete list of Oscar winners .  The economy isn't in trouble yet,  but with DOGE on the warpath, I predict it will be.  Speaker Mike Johnson has always creeped me out. Now even more .  I am F...

Get Your Dunkin' Friday

 Well, it's confirmed I broke a rib. First broken bone in my entire life. Rest and Advil. That's the treatment. Stupid body. It's always breaking. I'm looking forward to this weekend though. The girls have basketball games and activities. I'm going to rest up and binge some Oscar movies .  Here are your highlights: Asians behaving badly. Crypto bro Justin Sun.   Vaccinate your kids.   We've been saying this, but the  government's mass firings are illegal.  No one seems to care.  Yuengling is coming to Central Illinois! Gym Jordan got rickrolled. There is no caravan of illegals. So now businesses are bracing for ICE raids .  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

 My ribs. They hurt and pop. I go to the doctor tomorrow. At least my doctor isn't an RFK Jr. guy, so I'll at the very least get some decent treatment. I might get a measles shot even though I don't need one just in case. The anti-vaccine movement has become a menace to society. One that has rotted the brains on both the left and right. I remember when we lived in the Bay Area dealing with crunchy women who were certain they knew more than a virologist. The right oils and the right essence could cure most things if you knew the right concoction. It's now seeped into the mainstream and kids are dying . Kids. The ones you're supposed to protect. I don't care about your feelings. We shouldn't be dealing with viruses we figured out. Period.  Here are your highlights: RIP Gene Hackman . He was one of the greatest actors of all time and his work was always measured. I'll watch Crimson Tide tonight in his honor.  The Washington Post is now fully compromised. Be...

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

 I've been sick. Our youngest got the noro and I in turn got it as well. I do not recommend it. I do not recommend puking so hard you might've dislocated a rib. I hate 2025. I'm feeling better today, but for two days I was miserable. Kids are gross. Other people's kids are worse. Wash their hands. Give them baths! Damnit! Drinking lots of fluids and hoping for energy to return to my body soon.  Here are your highlights: Facebook to boost lies and viral content . NOT GOOD.  Everything is for sale. Including citizenship .  MSNBC is cowardly and there is no other way to put it.  Federal funding cuts are hitting higher ed and critical research .  Ukraine, the latest.  Some good news. Tesla sales are down in Europe . Big time.  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message
