Get Your Dunkin' Monday

 We had a fantastic birthday weekend. We laughed, ate dim sum, and saw the Minecraft movie. One thing is for sure: if you ever want to write a screenplay, go ahead and do it. The Minecraft movie is proof that anyone can make a movie. Never doubt yourself Here are your highlights: Forget babies named after TV show characters. People today are naming kids after trees.   DHS is threatening to jail more Democrats . It's here.  Cutting Medicaid is cruel and also wildly unpopular. So, of course, Republicans want to move forward with it.  Hurting the poor to benefit the rich. BUT BUDGETS. DEFICITS. FISCAL CONSERVATISM.  Worms in meat .  Dismantling NOAA threatens monitoring of Carbon Dioxide.   Mock, Paper, Scissors had me laughing out loud. Pope poses as the President.   I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

I'm older today, and I feel it. Every bone is cracking. I grunt when I get out of a chair.  But then I went outside, and it was nice out. Genuinely nice out. And I felt young again. I'm technically middle-aged now, but I don't feel like it. I still feel just as clueless as I was when I was 21. The world feels just as chaotic. I'm lucky to be here after all I've been through, especially in the past two years. I'm proud of myself.  Here are your highlights:  Saint Babbit of QAnon . Drifty makes the case that the Republican Party is no longer a party, but a religion.  Pronatalists are weird .  NEW POPE! CHICAGO POPE! The Right is Pissed .  AI is crap. AI is a scam. And people should not bring people back from the dead .  A Hungarian spy operation was uncovered by Ukraine. I am Frank Chow and I approve this message 

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

 I get older tomorrow. It's an off year with nothing to celebrate except that I'm here, I'm still learning, and we have two amazing daughters. Life, when you simplify it like that, makes it easier. All the chaos that surrounds us, all the terrible shit going on, at the core of it I'm luck to have my family. So tomorrow, I'll cheers to another year on this planet.  Here are your highlights: Asians behaving badly - Outgoing U of Michigan president is a coward . Anyone else weirded out by how much power Laura Loomer has? Our governor in Illinois is doing it right.   The Supreme Court is all about the vibes .  Time to do a wellness check on Sen. Fetterman.  Trump reports more children. ICE needs to be drowned in a bathtub . That'd be a real DOGE cut.  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

Get Your Dunkin' Wednesday

Kristi Noem is visiting Springfield, Illinois. If you want to go cause some good trouble. I can't make it, but here are some sign ideas.  Noemone asked for you to visit Leave us a-noem Kristi says she's a "patriot." Noem she's not. Noem more deportations without due process! Would rather deal with a garden Noem. Here are your highlights: Federal judge orders North Carolina to certify the election . New Pope! We're going to get a new Pope . Let's hope JD Vance doesn't meet this one, too.  India and Pakistan. Not good .  The courts will decide if disabled people have a right to equal healthcare .  DOGE is being run by petulant little twerps who deserved wedgies in high school.  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

Get Your Dunkin' Tuesday

 Alcatraz! Movies! Sharks! Oh my! Trump is clearly in cognitive decline. He watches TV while he shits himself and the press prints it as fact. The failure of our media will be studied for decades . How they capitulated, how they went along with the chaos, and how they refused to stand up to the Orange Menace. It's up to us, lowly bloggers and terminally online folks, to right the ship. Onward. Forward.  Here are your highlights: Texas wants to monitor wastewater for abortion pills . I have no words.  Real ID. It only took 20 years.   Fuck the Great Lakes .  As a girl, Dad, I will stock up on Barbie Dolls.   ICE is killing people , and Congress doesn't care.  Crypto is bad. It's always been bad. It's worse now that Trump is scamming people daily.  If it were any other time, Trump would already be impeached... I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

 It's another weekend, another step closer to dictatorship. People are fed up and organizing, a bright spot in a dark climate. Speaking of climate, why did we move to Illinois?! This weather is lame: rain, mud, humidity, allergies. I'm miserable.  Here are your highlights: Does a president need to uphold the Constitution? I can't believe we have to ask that.  "A slow-moving apocalypse" in the world of scientific research . There are openings for other countries to lead in science. Republicans do not understand what they're cutting. It's ignorant and detrimental.  Genocide and the occupation of Gaza .  Re-opening Alcatraz . It's all so stupid, I don't know where to begin. A criminal says we must put more criminals in hard-to-reach prisons.  Crypto is a scam. And it's hurting Americans .  We have a housing crisis on our hands .  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message

 Just the dumbest people running the country. They don't get that firing, closing operations, and drowning the government in a bathtub will lead to disasters, disease, and deaths. Or, worse, they don't care. It's ridiculous, and there seems to be no signs of stopping them. Republicans write orders like you're ordering Jimmy John's for your corporate lunch.  Here are your highlights:  NPR and PBS are on the chopping block .  Charter Schools have always been a scam to force religion on children .  55,000 on strike in LA .  Therapy can't make people less trans. HHS is led by a crackpot . Leave Trans kids alone.  DOGE! BUDGET CUTS! $1 trillion to the Pentagon! Wait, what?  Rubio is collecting new roles like PokĂ©mon . But it's clear, he actually isn't doing shit but being a coward. He claims he can scoop citizens off the street for disagreeing with him. Come get me, Marco.  I am Frank Chow and I approve this message
