Jo, I am madly in love with the part of your brain that writes this column. I am immensely grateful for your names and descriptors. Your writing lifts me up no matter where I am (right now that would be in the scrotum of a diseased camel, but I digress).
Portland, a city so gentle it probably writes thank you notes to the rain. This is lovely JoJo! I live here and this is just as perfect a description as I have ever heard! There were many others that were spot on, but this one is just nice. Thank you!
I live in Oregon also. Oregon was doing just fine until Trump brought in the ICE thugs. He wants there to be trouble and chaos so people will revolt against it and then get hurt from the thugs! It’s sick and disgusting to treat Americans in our own country like this.
I lived in P-Town all through the 90s. Sold yellow pages for US West at the time so I got around to all the unique neighborhoods and got to know some pretty interesting characters. You’ll enjoy this Borowitz quickie in case ya missed. 🙂
Horrible about that poor judge and her husband! I just read a statement made by Miller's cousin, who grew up with him, how she feels so sick at what he is doing, doesn't understand how he has changed from the "cute kid" he was. She is getting so upset that she's on Zoloft. Probably not my business, but I made it so; told her that his behavior was NOT her or her family's fault. He's an adult, and obviously, something happened within his psyche. He will pay the price. I hope she listened to my ancient wisdom.
You're spot on. I read a bit of a book written about this hateful, disgusting, little man. He grew up in a swank neighbor of LA. His father's business fell on hard times & they had to move. A lot of his neighbors were Latinos & he hated it with every fiber of his being, even though he had Latino friends. When he moved back into a swanky neighborhood right B4 high school, he told his Latino friends that he couldn't be friends with than anymore BCUZ of their heritage. Ugly little creep.
Lol! No, I plan on spending NO time inside the head of that hateful little prick. I'll let the psychologists and psychiatrists handle that unenviable task ;)
Yeah, preferably at a place like Patton Hospital where the criminally insane go.
When I can stomach a thought about Lil Stevie and his hatefulness, it's not only rage I feel, but it's also like when I watched the first Nightmare on Elm Street many years ago. That shit scared me so much that I couldn't sleep! I don't know, maybe someone should do a welfare check on that author.
Cute little kid? I’m trying to imagine that and it’s just not happening. His speech in high school when he whined about why he shouldn’t have to pick up his own lunch trash because “that’s what janitors are for” screamed serious assholery. Cute little kid 🤔 I’ll keep trying.
Thanks again,JoJo for another spot on column. You express so well the rage and frustration i feel about this regime and the mean petty people that reflect their leader.
I'm rewatching Good Omens so it will be fresh in my mind when 3 comes out (If I have to watch 1 and 2 again, so be it). Are you sure you weren't taking notes? I swear, I saw some of the descriptions of Miller in hell - and they weren't scary as much as oddly funny! You help so many of us stay sane with your wit and charm. Please, never stop. Laughter is a gift and we receive it gratefully these days! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
A British musical in the 1960s called Blitz. A song about Hitler ends with the line: "He's a nasty little bastard with a black mustache and we won't have him here!"
He's so desperate to put off swearing in of the new Congresswoman bcuz she represents the 218th vote that's needed to finally get the release of the Epstein Files to the floor for a vote! Because of how badly they've handled this, I'm convinced Trump was a frequent flyer, so to speak.
My name for him is Squidward Goebbels, because he's exactly what Squidward and his role model, Goebbels, would've looked like had they hooked up and had a hate child. Or would he have been the product of a threesome with Roy Cohn? The dead eyes make it a distinct possibility ... All I know is that I've had to suppress my gag reflex to even look at his face. And I have to wash the slime out of my brain each time I even THINK of him.
Holy smokes! Bravo Jo! Put that to music and it's like "Night at The Opera." What a fantastic opus for a grotesque character in a bad B horror film. I can't believe he's a real person and not a caricature of a type cast sinister psychopath.
What did that loser do to get to where he is? Nevermind. Don't tell me. He's already a living night terror. I couldn't handle much more.
There is no evidence that the Judge in SC is liberal. The only criteria for her ruling against tRump was that he was out of bounds on the law! What they did to her was completely wrong!!! Most everyone in SC are red, red, red Republicans! Still your articles are the best!!!

Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💗💕💞
Omg, I have such a massive girl crush on her brain.
Um, quite the digression!
Jo, I have likened for years personnel in this administration to those in the 1940s. Himmler, Goebbles. Sorry to report that’s not a stretch.

You nailed it again JoJo with your colourful choice of words. I picture Miller in a SS uniform every time I see him so I call him Peewee German.
Peewee German is the perfect name for him!
Pee-Wee Hermann Göring works too.

Good background info. But I pity the author who decided to do a deep dive into That madness.

I had a horrible dream a few months back that Squidward Goebbels was hiding under my bed.
Woke up in a cold sweat 😰
Oh man! Time to up the Ambien.
Jeez, hopefully he wasn't actually there. I mean, you never know with cockroaches. Or rats.

Yeah, "cute" is one Hell of a stretch.🙄

I couldn't possibly agree with you more! JoJo is a comedic genius & gifted writer.
A British musical in the 1960s called Blitz. A song about Hitler ends with the line: "He's a nasty little bastard with a black mustache and we won't have him here!"
And yet, MAGA Mike calls off Congress for yet another week. Yikes!
He's so desperate to put off swearing in of the new Congresswoman bcuz she represents the 218th vote that's needed to finally get the release of the Epstein Files to the floor for a vote! Because of how badly they've handled this, I'm convinced Trump was a frequent flyer, so to speak.
Those metaphors are more gruesome stuff than that in The Jungle . I guess the next POTUS ought not hire him

Squidward Goebbels?
Stop Fran, yer killin’ me! 😂 😂 😂
Me, too!
Squidward Goebbels.😂😂
Another perfect post, Jo!! Thank you for all of the 'visuals' I got while reading it!
Holy smokes! Bravo Jo! Put that to music and it's like "Night at The Opera." What a fantastic opus for a grotesque character in a bad B horror film. I can't believe he's a real person and not a caricature of a type cast sinister psychopath.

Take care of yourself Jojo.
God, this is so good. Thank you.

You do know that Miller bears a remarkable resemblance to Joseph Goebbels? Check it out! Nazi in an expensive suit!
