Appointment In Coachella

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump will bring his campaign to Coachella Saturday with a rally at Calhoun Ranch.

The rally is planned for 5 p.m. Saturday at the ranch, 52995 Calhoun St.

Coachella Mayor Steven Hernandez released a statement Monday afternoon unfavorably comparing Trump’s planned rally to a 2020 primary campaign event held by Sen. Bernie Sanders, whom he said the city was “proud to welcome.”

“Trump’s attacks on immigrants, women, the LQBTQ community and the most vulnerable among us don’t align with the values of our community,” Hernandez said. “He has consistently expressed disdain for the type of diversity that helps define Coachella. We don’t know why Trump is visiting near Coachella, but we know he wasn’t invited by the people who live here. He ain’t like us.”

Rep. Raul Ruiz, D-Indio, whose district includes the rally site, echoed Hernandez’s sentiment in another statement Monday, calling the rally “yet another demonstration of his cluelessness and ignorance” and Trump himself “an affront to everything that makes the Coachella Valley a vibrant community.”

Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, an ardent Trump supporter, will be among the conservative figures in attendance at the rally. According to the Desert Sun, Bianco said he was not planning on speaking at the event, but would if asked.

He also criticized the comments from Ruiz and Hernandez.

“Reckless comments from irresponsible local politicians certainly do not help our mission and quite frankly are embarrassing for Riverside County,” Bianco said in his own statement. “I will be there to ensure the former President and attendees go home safely.”

Shouldn't that be "get" home safely, Sheriff? Oh, never fucking mind. You're just as stupid & senile as your idol Trump. Reckless comments from irresponsible national politicians who are fucking losers is more like it. Up yours, "Chad".

Flamin' Friday

Texas T Spills The Tea

Same skirt as in the video?

My one-time close personal acquaintance who used to cut my hair. Or Instagram. None of this damn bullshit lets one embed anything, does it?

Glad Terri sobered up & is still kicking. Apparently had to move to berlin to do it. She may well have started the black leggings & combat boots fashion thing that's still going strong. She was certainly the first dame I ever saw w/ the look, but what the hell did I ever know?

Friday Finger

And the horse you rode in on. Kiss my ass, fuck off & die, eat shit & get out of town yada yada. Also the hearse you'll ride out in. And your mom!!

Milton Disappoints

Like animated tee vee pansy Milton the Monster, who just wanted to be nice or loved or whatever crap appeals to the neuroses of children, Hurricane Milton pooped out. This reporter was hoping for the deaths of thousands of idiot crackers & cracker idiots. C'mon, nature. (Or weather control.) Do your job!

In The Long Run, We're All Dead

24 hrs. 'til the fucking hurricane, 30 days to the election. My patience has been stretched well beyond its limits; for once, let's stop pretending, stop running our fucking lying mouths & START THE KILLING NOW!!

Today In Indiscriminate Murder

What the hell? Where's the outrage? They're just shooting missiles at any old apartment building in any neighboring country now? Unmanned arial warfare is the ultimate in cowardice. That means you, Israel.

Nausea, Vomiting & ...

Why are the clouds green?

Was going to type (grudgingly) about some recent not completely awful events in my pathetically empty existence, but then I threw up, so the positive development of not vomiting since Sunday was shot to hell right there, & in all honesty the other things weren't that positive either (indeed, one was very negative for my former next-door neighbor) & it wasn't long before I didn't give enough of a crap to arse myself to type the stupid little stories & manipulate the photos that even people who once knew me in meatspace wouldn't care about (not that any of them give a crap about me anymore) let alone the 20 or 30 confused weirdoes on the iNternet who wander by here on a semi-regular basis.

Hey, all one sentence. I'm James fucking Joyce here!

Burn It All & Piss On The Ashes

So damn sick of all these fucking people. Let it all burn w/ them inside.

Shut The Hell Up Already

So fucking tired of the whining. I'm the only entity on this planet who has a right to bitch & moan about being tortured, abused & murdered every fucking day. The rest of you cretins have no fucking idea.

Not to mention the endless ennui & numbness-inducing of other humanoid activities when I'm not a hostage to mindless stupidity.

Gawd of Abraham my fucking ass. Let him sort them out as soon as they're all dead. And let's get that war going.

Prayers For Florida?

You better believe Fuck The World!

Today In Nihilism

Praying to the Giant Killer Fairy in the Sky to wash every fucking cracker shitheel in the state of Florida into the gulf or ocean. Die, pigs.

Be nice if the Giant Killer Fairy would take care of His asshole worshippers in Israel too. Death to landlords!

And it would be really nice if everyone everywhere were dead as a doorknob. Kill yourselves, save the planet.

Is that too real for the iNternet (Facebook)? We'll see.

Phase One Gentrification Is Done

Job isn't all finished. I see buildings standing in the distance. Few more evictions from above should take care of that.

And these pesky people who just won't leave. Do the landlords let everyone die of starvation, disease & exposure in the rubble, or do they take more active resettlement measures?

Sunday Solar Suckfest

Nicely framed, if I do say so myself. And I'm certainly the only person qualified (or capable) to pass judgement on me, you fucking Philistines.
