I got nothing.

UPDATE: Reader @Ancienthacker via Twitter tells me that this is a mailer from the Illinois Speaker of the House Mike Madigan (D).
Thanks!

You will be seeing scheduled post of memes and pics. Why? Because probably while you read this, I’ll be sobbing uncontrollably trying to do some plumbing in the house. I am known for not being the most proficient DIY for fixing pipes and I will be dealing with changing a tub and shower faucet from an old school two knobs to a single central lever.

Even though I have been planning, prepping and buying all the ingredients, It will probably take me all day and 2 trips to the hardware store to finish the job and I am being optimistic. Las Vegas oddsmakers are giving 35 to 1 ending the job sometime Saturday.

If (big one) I’m done today, my fingers will be probably be burnt and shredded so I won’t be able to write a post. My wife said I am not allowed to drip blood over the keyboard again.

That wailing you hear coming from way south is probably me.

“I don’t know. What do you want?”

One of the many accusations against Trump has been that the response to Puerto Rico was botched. Stuff did not reach the island and thousands died because he is President shit.

In October of 2017, a garbage dumpster was found filled with water and meals ready to eat, remember?

And yesterday, they found an amazing amount of abandoned  bottles of water in an airport.

Hundreds of thousands of water bottles meant for victims of Hurricane Maria are still sitting at a Puerto Rico airport — nearly a year after the deadly storm, according to a report.

A photo showing the bottles in boxes and covered in a blue tarp on a runway in Ceiba was shared widely on social media Tuesday evening.
“Although you don’t believe it… almost a million boxes of water that were never delivered to the villages,” posted Abdiel Santana, a photographer working for a Puerto Rican state police agency who took the pictures. “Is there anyone who can explain this?”

This was water airlifted to Puerto Rico at a considerable expense to the taxpayers. It was the responsibility of the local government to distribute it and the failed miserably. But somehow, the fault that the water was not delivered is Trump’s. What the flock they wanted him to do? Play Presidential Grubhub and deliver it personally?

Now, do we relay need that level of corruption and fuck up to become the 51st state of the Union? Let’s help Puerto Rico become independent.

A longtime College of Southern Nevada sociology professor is facing felony gun charges in connection with an on-campus shooting on the second day of classes.
Mark J. Bird was charged last month with discharging a gun within a prohibited structure, carrying a concealed weapon without a permit and possessing a dangerous weapon on school property, court records show. He was found bleeding from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his arm about 8:15 a.m. on Aug. 28 outside a bathroom in the Charleston campus K building.

It gets much better:

One college employee told police that he held Bird’s hand to calm him down as others tried to stop the bleeding. While waiting for authorities to arrive, Bird said he had shot himself in protest of President Donald Trump, police noted in their report. The report did not elaborate.

Report: Las Vegas professor shot himself in arm to protest Trump

I know you already are thinking about other places this idiot could have placed the muzzle of the gun in order to make a long-lasting impression. But  allow me to give you a sobering thought: If they are willing to shoot themselves for small-minded political crap,  do you think they will have any compunction shooting you or your loved ones just because you are in the wrong side?

Is no longer a question of “IF” but “When.” And unfortunately,  I think it will be sooner than later that we may have to react.
