“My Birth Certificate Is A Petroglyph, A Wild Ride With Ken, The Time-Traveling Oracle of Defy”, is an eBook & Audiobook now available on Kindle, Audible.com, Amazon.com & iTunes.
Ken spreads cheer and satire wherever he goes without fear or favor. As long as ICE doesn’t start zip-tying fictional characters, he will remain free to continue his joyous romp through the ages.
The promo video of a few samples from Petroglyph is on BesideTheTimes.Substack.com
Extortion is what you call that. Nice country you have there, would be a shame if something happened to it...
Political terrorism...

At this point it feels a bit like Maga is the Buffalo Bill freak in silence of the lambs....

@georgetakei After the Democrats cave:
“The Democrats took away your healthcare,” said the GOP en masse.
I wonder if the Democrats, for once actually understand what comes of, “reaching across the aisle.”
@georgetakei How long need this shutdown thing need to be until the law goes "this government has failed, so now we do a new election"? There is such a thing, right?
One migrant had an affair with his couch and he never got over it.
@georgetakei
Are there actually any efforts to end the shutdown? To find a compromise? Or will the shutdown continue until 2026?

@georgetakei The full Oliver Twist!
@georgetakei No different to high school bullies with the "why are you hitting yourself?" routine.
Worse is there is this thing going around... a “rumor” going around that people should save their SNAP / EBT / Food Stamps to get more.
Do not do this.
First, buy the things you need. Shop smart.
And I can already hear Donald Trump saying it:
"We cut off the Food Stamps — many people, thousands, even millions of people, still had Food Stamps left over. Can you believe it? They said they needed it, but it turned out, not everyone needed it. They had so much left over — so obviously, they didn’t need it!"
हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
