Obama was joking about his daughter during the Munich presser. And the cult follower press laughed w/ him. All Presidents become insular in the WH. But this motherfucker STARTED insular and is no in his own separate reality. I have to think the Clinton campaign are saying to themselves, "STFU!!" But, maybe they don't see it?

Darcy probably needs a hug right now.

Once again, the preferred narrative is "lone wolf" despite initial reports. This seems like a trend to me.

When, where?

What happened?

The Dude said...

A lone wolf, but they are searching for 3 suspects. Sounds more like a pack to me.

Rabel said...

That was mean of me. I feel bad now.

She was in the long thread on Trump's speech saying that it scared her.

10 dead, including 1 shooter, but Sixty's right.

They're reported to be looking for at least 2 more.

You have lifted my spirits.

Man, I'm glad I picked the speakers out of the trash. Twice. I'm still cross but only partially. The speakers work. The bluetooth does not. Doesn't work for the laptop or the phone. Just flat does not work.

But everything else does and it's a great speaker otherwise and works fine using AUX and a wire with two jacks.

Thanks, Bluetooth, you incredibly unreliable mystery jinky piece of jury-rigged bog turd.

GOD I hate bluetooth. Utterly brilliant when it works and whenever it works it's like f'n magic and all other times a gargantuan waste of time that unacceptable to the greatest waster of time. Bluetooth: the gigantic black hole of time.

It's too high a cost.

I go insane. I threw it on the floor. I threw it in the trash.

Then thought, what if it was on pause?

Then threw it in the trash again.

Then thought, what if it works on AUX?

And it does.

So I'm back to the dark ages of wires. wires wires wires

wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires wires

For the rest of my g.d. life. I will NEVER have a wireless world. I will certainly die before that happens.

Then the next day wireless takes over and wires are banned.

My first impression was similar - as it was in Orlando, Dallas, and Baton Rouge. But German authorities insist that he acted alone.

Strange, I know. But it's like the narrative must avoid conspiracies. Going forward, all terrorist strikes must be lone wolves in the future too. .

Maybe I'm just having a "the first casualty is the truth" moment.

I'll snap out of it. Just like Darcy will.

Chip, I use USB wireless stuff, but I had a full sized tablet that came with bluetooth for the keyboard and it never worked. I'd turn it on and it would find 2 other computers and 4 cell phones and then time out before I could locate the keyboard and tell it to talk to the keyboard.
