I can't sorry. Will be too late. And also MN really playing up. Cloudflare locks me out at high traffic times just now.

Oh damn! Forgot about the time difference!!

In the words of Maxwell Smart "Sorry about that, Chief"!

Guess I'll have to watch the news and add my own 'silent snark'.

I do plan to have CNN on my car radio (Sirius XM stream) as I'm running errands so I may catch some of Scrotus' bullshit, depending on where he's placed during the service. Does he want to be the 'opening act' or the 'big finish'?

I wonder if the Graham family truly wants him giving a speech or if it was presented to them as a fait accompli. I doubt very much if they were given an opportunity to say "No, but thank you anyway".

Just turned on CNN to watch Graham's funeral.

Is it disrespectful that I'm still in bed in my pjs drinking my morning coffee with the dog by my side? It is?

Good.

Thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.🙏

Cheers for the new thread @Spandauer.🌞

Oh yes! I forgot to thank @Spandauer for the new thread! Thank you! I have to admit, when I hear that song I feel like I should be lying back on the sofa with a nice spliff. Ahhh, the '70s!

I guess what's on now is the Capitol Rotunda ceremony. Actual funeral not 'til 2pm EDT. That's 11 am for me and I have 10.30 appt somewhere so I guess I'll miss it 'live'.

I am looking forward to @RedTagAlan 's post & commentary of Scrotus' rodomontade 'eulogy' for Graham.

I think that demonstrates all the respect that is owed.

BustingBaoBun · 28/07/2026 15:11

Not disrespectful in the slightest!

Thx @Spandauer for new thread 👍🏼🙂

My life was changed by the discovery that I could bookmark the last post on a thread I was not myself posting to, and immediately find it again my looking in "My activity" under "Bookmarks". I now bookmark the last post of any thread I am on or am interested in, and I can find it in a couple of keystrokes: no more scrolling haplessly about in threads that have got 214 new posts overnight!

Thanks for the new thread @Spandauer

TRIPUS today - sounds like the Dems are in a right mess financially speaking, taking out a loan against their HQ building because fundraising is not going well.

Sounds like the Dems just can’t get out of their own way.

Checking in. I may or may not keep up. Depends how much I can face.

Thank you for the new thread, and also for a thread whose title isn't going to give me an earworm of a song whose lyrics I don't know properly!

Thank you @Spandauer - maybe that's what the orange permafrost all over DT's face is - Swarfega laid on with a trowel fresh each morning, so that the Grim Reaper's scythe just slides off him. Ghastly maggot (apologies to any maggots reading).
