A chaos of Trumps
A blather of Trumps
A hornswoggle of Trumps
A bilge of Trumps
A wagtail of Trumps
A bedswerver of Trumps
A gnashgab of Trumps
A lubberwort of Trumps
A tallowcatch of Trumps

I don't know why we keep making up new words when there are such awesome ones we've forgotten...
And, when it comes to the adjective describing a gathering of animals my personal favorite is exaltation of larks. (Tho murder of crows is obviously the gold standard)

Ok, BIG is on which means I’ll likely stay up too late. Penny Marshall’s other great movie. And speaking of great actresses who didn’t get the roles they deserved post 35, @Elizbethperkins is fantastic. Pretty much a flawless performance
I hate looking back at actresses of my or any generation and wondering ‘was it sexual harassment/abuse or just straight up industry sexism’ 🤬🤬🤬
But anyway, as good as Hanks performance was the movie wouldn’t have worked unless @Elizbethperkins wasn’t equally good. And back to the greatness of Penny Marshall, in both cases.

Has the autocorrect (in general and/or on the X) gotten more authoritarian or am I just blaming technology for my own failings?
As a dyslexic, spell checkers allowed me to, well, do my job. I was very fearful of autofill and am decently careful when dealing with words—and there are lots—that i struggle with. But I don’t bother to look at those I don’t. Except maybe now I must.
By “authoritarian” I mean going beyond the general “ducking” for “fucking” stuff and replacing non-swear words you’ve spelled correctly with other words

I have yet to see Green Book and this have no option about its merits but WILL EMPHATICALLY SAY, that this #99pi explaining the history is fab and bonus @thememorypalace is even better 99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-gr…
.@romanmars says that @thememorypalace is the best writer in radio and idk they might have to duke it out (and also @ScottCarrier57) but the last line of Nate’s piece made me cry. Heightened by listening to Roman’s first.
I know that’s two white guys weighing in on a key moment—passport, really—of Black history but if you listen I swear you will not be disappointed. Or you can come back and yell at us all here.

#OSHO

The #human #order is #chaos within, a #cosmos just on the periphery, skin deep at the most
There are two types of #order in the #world: one man-made, another divine.

Man-made order is just make-believe. It is not really an order, it only hides disorder. Deep down the #anarchy continues. On the surface, you are befooled, as if there is an order.
Just the opposite is the case with the #divine order.

On the surface there is #chaos, and deep down in the depths, there is #order. On the surface, there are great waves, and the ocean is silent deep within. The center has a #cosmos in it, and the periphery has chaos on it.

The US has entered into period of “chaos and nastiness” according to Michelle Obama in a Speech given on Sunday in Las Vegas. Now, I’m aware of the entire speech she gave and the Former First Lady is entitle to “her opinion.” But, how did we get here? Words have Power!
In the history of previous Presidency’s, I do not recall an Administration like the Obama’s who have actively worked against a sitting President. Most fade into the sunset to build their library or write books. But, something is happening and very dangerously different.
If my memory is failing or incorrect, I ask to be corrected. However, I began to see an uptick in Violence and Protesting of the Trump Administration shortly after the “Call to Arms” by a Few Leaders in the Democratic Party. It escalated and was not condemned.

We will be at war with NKorea before #Christmas!
#Trump is putting the final pieces in place before he goes for all out War 1/
2/ I have said previously that whatever #China & #Russia's response to a #USA attack on #NKorea, it would be unified. That why he's in #Asia
3/ He's making the rounds, laying the ground work. First stop #Japan & promises of protection from #Nkorea's nukes.

1 #Trump signs EO allowing SecDef to recall at will for #WarOnTerror as long as its paid for
13/ How long would it take to find out election suspended if they were reading to this terrorist attack.
14 Would the confusion caused by the internets collapse,& loss of the power grid give #Trump & generals the time needed to consolidate power
