Busy Bee [DOT 16/4/20]

I was such a little busy bee working yesterday I’m not sure what all is going on in the world. I’m guessing it’s mostly bad or annoying, but I’ll see what I can find at the end to brighten up the day.


Wut?

Yaaaaay!!!!


I laughed really hard at this. I regret to inform you that I am a bad person.


It’s Thursday, for those of you keeping track. Hang in there!

  1. Okay, I laughed too. I strongly suspect, however, that a lot of these “spontaneous” YouTube videos are fabricated to get clicks and cash. Pretty sure that kid dived onto a mattress off-screen.

    I have a low and suspicious nature.

    Work has been keeping me from following events too closely, too. That’s probably a good thing, considering how bat-shit crazy Trump has been over the last week. I’d say he’s headed for a breakdown, but I’m not sure if dementia patients can actually have psychotic breaks. I do think he’s had some transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and his mental state has deteriorated even from its previously low levels. He’s just gabbling senselessly on television now. It dumbfounds me that no one on/in his staff/family is just sedating him and keeping him off-camera. Best thing he could do for his approval ratings right now is disappear. Hide a pill in his cheeseburgers, people!
