Grab the Wookie.

a few recent thoughts.

There's a video going around on Facebook where Donald Trump rapes and kills someone in cold blood and then eats the corpse, licking his fingers with glee. I can't show it right now because it's been blocked by the powers that be, but it's real. Rich Orange Clown Nazi dude is a total monster, vote for him for President and you could very well be his next victim...Regardless of it having just been Halloween, the "day of the dead" festival if you were, things are pretty freakin' scary right now in general. I hereby change the name of our country to AmSCAREica...If Trump wins I'm moving to Russia, which I guess means I'm not moving anywhere since Russia will be moving here. If Clinton wins I'm... uh... moving my email?

All you need to know about the 2016 Election.

if the straightjacket fits?

crystal balls

So, with each new unsavory revelation (they're not just allegations after all), the question is: what WILL it take for Trump's supporters to jump off his absurd bandwagon out of hell? He's already done and said everything, except cannibalize a small town after groping their women and children and dehumanizing the rest of the townsfolk with a litany of obscenity-laced, derogatory and sophomoric insults (and this all whilst proving over and over that he has absolutely no clue about governance, disrespects the law, is a shitty businessman who was merely propped up by his daddy, a carnival barker and a reality tv douche of the lowest common denominator who's reminded us of friggin' Hitler).

Star Fucker.

By his own account, Donald Trump is a "Star", so he has free reign to do whatever the F he wants, including commit sexual assault apparently. One fact being ignored is that the hot mic vid is a huge indictment against our Star System AS WELL as against this monster candidate. Follow this star f--king', manhandling, orange fascist idiot at your (our) own peril.

An old bearded hippy driving an empty yellow taxi just passed me slowly blaring "My Generation" at full volume out all 4 open windows. For a fleeting moment I forgot everything.

Life is like a box of fascist orange horse dung.

FARCE

You think the 2016 Prez election can't possibly top itself with any further outlandish stupidity and contentious, contemptuous, arrogant behavior, yet it does, seemingly daily. If this crap hadn't already been going on for 2 long years I'd say let's start over, cuz the whole thing has become a mean-spirited, head-scratching and insulting sham of a mockery like no election before it (in my memory). I also long for the days when the newsfeed here was about more then just he said she said Armchair Politicizing. What has anyone achieved? I mean is anybody really listening to anybody else? Where's Triumph the insult comic dog when we need him to bitingly sum up this farce?

Ailes steps down

Roger Ailes just stepped down... Here's the former industry heavyweight (depicted by Robert Grossman for the NY Observer in 2006) bouncing on Rupert Murdoch's knee in those carefree GOP days of your and war, the mid '00's.

Happy Days are here again.

Chachi grew up to be a real dimwitted douchebag, huh? Who's the next irrelevant F list actor/speaker to be trotted out by the TeaOP? The Big Ragoo, Tootie from Facts of Life or Gopher, the yeoman pervert on The Love Boat?

What is there left to say (after the latest cop killings and killing of cops and...)? Society is crumbling at an exponential rate.

It's all connected: the wealth gap, non-action, reliance on authority, guns, racism and eased stupidity have created a whirl-cesspool of mayhem, distrust, desperation and anger. I don't see an end to this sadly, I see it increasing, with more people poor and on the streets, and more innocent people dead. These aren't isolated incidents, but the whole can't wrap their collective heads around that. $trings are being pulled that will continue to be pulled even though it's high time plugs are on so many obviously hurtful policies.

Yes, there've been "worse" times, yet society has not learned from them. People don't work together anymore, they work for corporations, and it's every man/woman for themselves. T's hard to not think that this country is headed into uncharted territory that doesn't look promising. I'm an actor, I hold a mirror up to society and try to make people laugh or think. I've posted about change on here and my blog endlessly too, but thoughts like this seem like platitudes to me now when as a society we cannot right the most obvious and basic wrongs that we repeat over and over and only make worse. People are being driven to poverty and some madness by frustration from injustice, and it's hard not to believe that that's the plan by the money lords on high: survival of the fittest and eventual population thinning.

Lobby zero$ doing a bang bang up job.

It's been written (tweeted) that masses died (again) only to be politicized (again) as Trump on the stump in error boasts "it's terror, why I'll build a wall and bomb 'em all"... The gall. Meanwhile, it may not matter what the Prez says, or what the Hawk squawks, cuz nothing will get done and the race may have just been won. At the end the day it's the NRA stupid.

An assault on us all.

Oh those whacky media maniacs!

The Media calling the Dem nomination before tomorrow's results is bogus no matter who you prefer. A) those voting Tuesday have yet to vote and B) neither have the phantom super delegates. This is not how a democracy elects someone. It's like saying "the Yankees win" before they have in some ways (ok, the Yankee$ of old), or "Dewey beats Truman!". There's a primary going on tomorrow, if this is not an establishment ploy meant to stop people from going to the polls I don't know what is. If I were a Hillary C. supporter I'd be downright ashamed by this premature gloating, which is what it is. It's not gonna win her any new fans either, that's for sure. Don't fall for the badmouthing Sanders bait/rushing him out of a race 5 months before the election crap either folks, c'mon. There'll be plenty of time after the Dem convention to pull together against the presumptive Repugnican antichrist if need be then. All that said, to hell with Drumpf the imbecilic phony fascist nominee of the other party, he cannot and will not be President. If he is, we deserve him.

"If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize." -Muhammad Ali

RIP Ali, the greatest of all tiiiiiiiiime. Here's a classic illustration by Robert Grossman done for Esquire in 1972, and a clay caricature he did as well in 1974 (he sculpted Frazier too). Ali was truly remarkable, an icon of icons as a Sports figure, personality, conscientious objector and outspoken counterculture ambassador. I'm happy to have gotten to see some of his majestic matches live on tv back in the day.

"Based on the fact that the Democratic nominating process is totally rigged and Crooked Hillary Clinton and Deborah Wasserman Schultz will not allow Bernie Sanders to win, and now that I am the presumptive Republican nominee, it seems inappropriate that I would debate the second place finisher."- Donald Drumpf ....What can I say? If you're even remotely thinking about voting for this lying nazi idiot you're an imbecile of epic proportions, plain and simple-minded.

Happy Birthday Jokerman

Enjoy this (tragically) never-published caricature by Alex Emanuel of Bob Dylan on his 75th birthday. Way to go Bob!

It would be terrific if you'd say "good-night and good-bye" Drumpf.

In the following article where 4th grade mental midget and Teapublican presidential nominee Donald Drumpf (!) makes an exception for a Muslim (this shit is real, very), he said the word "good" like ten times in one sentence. It went something like this "He's a good Muslim, and I know, because I've used the used the word good more than any other person in the world, this is a fact. It's good, terrific really, how I use good. As my wife, the Russian bimbo says, my penis is good", your penis is good honey" she says. To be honest, theres no one else as good as me, I'm the goodest, the gooderest actually, and you can quote me on that." Perhaps this absolute 100% grade Z billionaire nazi douchebag is infectious like a disease. Someone find a cure for the trumps please before that dumb shit is airborne.

That's all for everyone

Kasich dropping out, Teapublicans lock n' goose step now behind Trump (who will do anything and say anything to get this final job promotion of all job promotions). As if we all didn't see this coming. Kasich and Cruz will be a part of Il Douche's admin via shady back door dealings and payoffs that have no doubt occurred these past few days. Regardless of whom the Democrats end up nominating, the uncontested party of no ideas, soul or integrity has found their ideal man in that orange-faced, toupeed, billionaire Mussolini wannabe that we all loathe and the media loves.
