Thanks @ashesmonroe for taking pictures!

Small update , managed to figure out how to climb up this albeit with some safety with things being screwed together for now .. next step to get over my fear of heights and do a one arm on it and to finally finish with the stacking of the third layer as well

Pedophiles, Pulpits, and Politics

It’s entertaining, yet frustrating watching the MAGAts fight with each other over this Epstein saga. Frustrating because nothing will really come of it. Entertaining because even stupid comedy makes you laugh now and again.

This is one of those rare moments when the age-old rule of politics that you shouldn’t get in the way of your opponents digging a deep hole for themselves should not apply. I wish whatever the Dem party is these days would just take the gloves off and start smacking them as the Pedophile Party with every communication. But that would be fighting dirty with dirty and Dems don’t do that on that high road they trapped themselves on.

There’s not only political hay to gain in this chapter of our decline, but there’s plenty delicious irony to boot. The party that loves its churchgoers might be causing a few twitches in the pews. But then again, those congregations have their own problems with perverts in the pulpits. The party that turned a sex trafficking ring into a conspiracy theory doesn’t seem to like it when they realize their propaganda actually worked on their own followers.

Those family values folks in Congress keep voting to keep this under wraps now that their own are under threat. But that actually makes some political sense. Too many of their donors are probably on whatever list may or may not be. If not they themselves.

What’s even funnier is the guy at the center of this can’t keep his mouth shut and actually keeps admitting there’s actually a there there every time he tries to shut it down. Attempting to blame the Democrats for creating and covering up the list actually suggests there is one. I’m guessing a copy might be in his former wife’s casket along with a few other secrets.

I’d use tired and insulting metaphors like circus or clown show to describe this gang and this moment, but that just devalues even the shadiest touring attraction that might ever have existed. Those crews were at least smart enough to know when to pull up stakes and leave town.

А навіщо? В тому сенсі, що навіщо так складно? Якщо там є вода і вона не дуже відрізняється від болотяної, то можна отримати той самий ефект, просто пережовуючи гній у закритому роті, взагалі без використання будь-якого обладнання? #laptyekanda #circus #idiots

Early?
Not bloody likely!
This is yesterday’s fact.
I missed it as I ran away to join the circus…
How come I’m here then I hear you ponder?
They already had an old clown!
Besides turns out this is plenty circus already!
What?
What?
If you can do better, for free, on a Monday the mic is all yours!
