Every once in a while I pull my attention from the escapist entertainment that helps keeps me sane to peruse the daily headlines. On Monday we got a big reality TV callback when the current Secretary of Transportation and Acting Head of NASA—because no one can make up the idiocy and slafsafsadfdsaf that comprises the President BFF With A Pedophile presidency—said that he’s going to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon.
In other news, Sean Duffy has announced that America is building the world’s longest extension cord to bring nuclear moon energy back to America.#AnotherDistraction

I went and looked up Duffy. He has a bachelor’s degree in marketing and a law degree from a law school I have never heard of. And then he went to work for his daddy’s law firm. Mmmhmm. And it appears he literally did nothing during his time in Congress.
Was it because of this?
And of course I know that all of this is meant to distract everyone from what increasingly seems to be some really bad stuff about President Pedo’s BFF in the Epstein files. But what the actual fuck? How on Earth does this dumbass have anything to do with NASA? I mean, at this point the President BFF With A Pedo administration is more outlandish than the latest plot twist on The Gilded Age. (Isn’t Larry supposed to be an architect? And given how utterly clueless he was about Jack’s alarm clock, how is he suddenly an expert metallurgist? See what I mean?)
And then the reality show in the White House took a turn when President BFFWAP turned up on the roof.

And when asked why he was on the roof, he gave 2 nonsensical replies: something about the ballroom and something about nuclear weapons. Neither are comforting responses.
But at least it gave the wags something fun to do today:

Which brings me to:
It was an amusing, if annoying, diversion, but yeah, we need to see the Epstein files.
Here’s the cure for the ear worm in the title:
