It's time for you to bury your beezer in the June ish of The Last Word!
This ish talks about my trip to St. Augustine, a waiter ruining some pancakes, a luxury development taking over a city-owned parking lot, more ruined board games, taking thorns to school to defend yourself, and more!
So point your pooper here...

If that doesn't work, stink on over here...
Today, I went to the parade, and an Allowed Cloud got hilariously violated.
As the parade was starting, a woman with 2 kids sat down in front of me on the curb. At first, I thought the woman was someone who went to my high school for precisely one day, but I don't think it was her. Before long, the woman whipped out a can of ice cold brew and proceeded to imbibe - in violation of alcohol ordinances.
She was cool!
But, surprisingly, nobody bubbled at the parade.
Which fascism will the corporate empire support today? Democratic fascism or Republican fascism?
A good rule of thumb is that they'll favor whichever party gets the fewest votes per newspaper endorsement. This means they supported Republicans through most of modern history, but began favoring Democrats when the underpants laptoppers took over that party. Whatever the weather, Democrats and Republicans exhibit largely the same fascism these days. Gavin Newsom and Nikki Haley would be the media's dream ticket.
Now there are plans for an expansion of the Republican Party of Kentucky's headquarters in Frankfort. The biggest donor was pharmaceutical giant Pfizer, which gave $1 million to the GOP for this project, which includes a new 6,800-square-foot building that will contain an auditorium. The project got funds from defense contractors too. Other big donors include AT&T, Verizon, Metropolitan Life Insurance, Microsoft, Comcast, and Delta Air Lines. It reads like a who's who of corporate tyranny. It also reams a bazooka hole through the idea that big corporations are progressive bastions. Of course, with the Democrats being what they are these days, donating to the Democrats would have indicated the same thing.
These donations are made possible by a 2017 state law allowing corporations to donate unlimited money to political parties' building funds. Whose dumb idea was that? What gnawing need was there for this law in 2017?
This is one of many stories showing why we need to prohibit corporations from giving to political parties. Corporations are a corrupting influence on politics.
My newest Substack entry is about ongoing COVID totalitarianism that continues even today and is slated to continue in coming months...
For most of the week, I was on vacation in St. Augustine. I plan to write about much of it in The Last Word, but there were 3 celebrity look-alikes: Anne Bloom, Gordon Ramsay, and Steve Perry.
Today at the Krogie-Wogie in Bellevue, an elderly woman cracked an LAP bunker blast in the orange juice aisle.
Oscar the Grouch was my favorite character on the ol' Ses!
As summer travel season looms, you may have an experience like the 'Sesame Street' kick-ass crew did in a 1990 episode. In this installment, Gordon misses the bus to a basketball game and asks the ol' Osk and his girlfriend Grundgetta to drive him there...
But did Oscar say a bad word?
There was an episode of 'The Brady Bunch' in which Mike famously declares, "It's 6:00 in the morning," but there was clearly a word edited out just before "morning." It's pretty obvious he said a bad word. Something similar happens in this 'Sesame Street' episode. At 1:05, Oscar says to Gordon, "Just tell us how to get to the game and we'll be on our way." But there's a strange pause right before "game" - as if a word had to be edited out.
This kicks off a suspenseful narrative in which Oscar and Grundgetta take Gordon on a futile drive down Pothole Parkway - which makes the roads around here look like an Autobahn in comparison. It's really not even a road. It looks like it's just an alley between brick walls and buildings. It also requires a toll paid in old candy wrappers.
Spoiler alert! The delays cause Gordon to miss the whole game. He tries listening to it on Oscar's car radio, but the radio breaks just before the game's exciting conclusion. Sportscaster Marv Albert then appears out of nowhere and drives Gordon home.
Oscar the Grouch. A king among men!
The dumbest governor in America (outside New Mexico) strikes again!
We already knew that New York Gov. Kathy Hochul isn't exactly a force for good in the world, and now the tragic Hochul saga gets even worse!
Yesterday, Hochul was speaking at a forum in California and began talking about "young Black kids growing up in the Bronx who don't even know what the word 'computer' is."
Elected officials from the Bronx rightly blasted Hochul for her racism.
This is Evan Mecham-level stuff. Forty years ago, an idiot like Hochul would have stood out for her stupidity. These days, hardly anyone notices. One reason is that the rest of America's political, corporate, and academic leadership provides real competition to see who can be the dumbest or most evil. Like Hochul, many manage to be both stupid and evil. Many are simply horrible people. Another reason people don't notice is that the media won't do their job like it used to, so stories like this aren't reported much.
Just resign already, Kathy.
