Diogenes comments on Aug 14, 2019:

@Freedompath And that also is so true; it is said a coward dies many deaths.

Humility is the ability to give up your pride and still retain your dignity.

Cutiebeauty comments on Aug 15, 2019:

Isn't pride and dignity pretty much the same thing?

Diogenes replies on Aug 15, 2019:

@Cutiebeauty Ya; I was playing with words: Donald James Trump.

This sums up my bewilderment at the 38% pretty nicely...

Freedompath comments on Aug 15, 2019:

...I knew better, but I find it hard to excuse all the American citizens, that ignorantly voted us into this mess...and even now they refuse to see the writing on the wall...the clear evidence of our possible demise!

Diogenes replies on Aug 15, 2019:

As things are going on 'in the world', that should be "probable" demise.

Humility is the ability to give up your pride and still retain your dignity.

Cutiebeauty comments on Aug 15, 2019:

Isn't pride and dignity pretty much the same thing?

Diogenes replies on Aug 15, 2019:

That is a good question, and there certainly is a thin dividing line. It is a problem though when pride becomes excessive. A good example of corrupted pride and dignity would be "Donald James". He is totally proud of his stupidity, and he has no dignity either, or he wouldn't belch the next blob of shit out his gob.

Diogenes comments on Aug 13, 2019:

In a few words: all gods are man made, and in the time it takes me to type this, there are probably a few hundred more that have been made- and 'all' the one true god. I refuse to take the time to argue about such a foolish subject; I refuse to call myself an atheist. "Nature" whatever she is, if...

Has anyone else noticed that they cry more since Trump became president?

altschmerz comments on Aug 12, 2019:

I don’t cry, but I think my blood pressure might have gotten higher.

Diogenes replies on Aug 13, 2019:

My blood pressure has definitely gone up. Trump is the biggest, bottomless fool; he has the undisputed championship---- but the point is that there are so many- world-wide.

Complex sentences and multisyllabic words bore him.

dkp93 comments on Aug 8, 2019:

Mainstream media's rating will die without Trump in office? I look forward to the day when the news isn't filled with the daily atrocities coming out of the White House. Bring on the boring news, please!

Diogenes replies on Aug 9, 2019:

Yes bring on the "boring news". More important, bring on the plodding, pragmatic, "boring" reps, that go about their jobs--- and get things done. These current performances done by dancing buffoons, may garner a few laughs for a while, but the entertainment value has rotted a long time ago. Vote for fluff; get fluff.

Diogenes replies on Aug 8, 2019:

Yes, and before this is over, the trickle- the very few Republicans with some cognitive functions, may turn into the torrent caused by a broken dam. The point is, if he gets a second term, true hell will have arrived.

Of course he condemned the white nationalists, ...

Diogenes replies on Aug 7, 2019:

Yes, certainly- the "wink,wink" bullshit----- or he won't get elected- and he knows there's the big possibility of jail. Somebody pointed this out to him, and told him he had better be able to read the script- and with no adlibs.

Trillions of tons of ice melting on both poles!!! If that doesn't work-he is trying to kill the world economy. ------ and if that doesn't work, there's always a nuke war with Russia.

Big thanks for that info. I keep reading and seeing info about the trillions of tons of glacier ice melting and the cities that will be underwater shortly. YESTERDAY, not two hundred years ago, in past history, while all of Europe was boiling in a heat wave, the Tour du France (sp) had to be postponed because of a hail storm. Trump is having a major success in trying to speed up global warming! In every country, there needs to be a drastic shakeup- there needs to be reps that will make POSITIVE moves- and that means playing outside the box.

I assail no religious groups, and there is a cardinal reason for that, some of the religious have been murdered because they were doing good, and just, humanitarian work. Better them than hateful harbingers! Books: even the worst books, in most cases, have a few wise words. Generally, religious books are meant for fun; they are to be laughed at. For example, the Torah: building the universe in seven days, talking burning bushes, a character waving his magic-wand and dividing the water.------Still, not all Israelis are Zionist, and some support justice for the Palestinians.

Agree with the term, "pundit", but most of Fox News has supported him, but Trump doesn't know when to stop. When Fox News publishes a bit of truth about him, he is compelled to lash out and make his lies and lying worse. He is insane; he has no control over his actions.

And various versions of Gaelic are spoken in many countries and regions of the world: in a region in Spain, Brittany, Cornwall, Ireland, Scotland, Nova Scotia, and Wales.

@Marionville ... or two. Actually I am working toward my 'sainthood'- and trying to get rid of my 'beer protrudence'. Gaud, if I get anymore 'pure' I won't be able to stand myself. LOL

He wasn't offended at being called a rapist.

Diogenes replies on Jun 26, 2019:

@MojoDave Yes, women are inanimate things- they are objects. His wife is not really there- to him; 'it' is just something he wears on his arm, like his frivolous, long red tie--- when he goes off to blither in another country.

"Not my type" he said.

Killtheskyfairy comments on Jun 25, 2019:

Trump is a sickening rapist and an animal.

Diogenes replies on Jun 26, 2019:

Even dogs have a sense of honor and decency. Call 'It' a vegetable- although even vegetables might object to being classed in with something so brainless

Freedompath comments on Jun 26, 2019:

This is a twisted man, who has up to this point, been able to get away with almost anything illegal...and abhorrent! I am putting my trust in his being exposed to the whole world for the ‘criminal mind’ that he has...and that justice will come in abundance!

Diogenes replies on Jun 26, 2019:

The whole world already knows he is a criminal- and always has been- that is except this little ghetto in the US of some 40%!

SeaGreenEyez comments on Jun 23, 2019:

I'm pretty certain this is FoxNews making an exit strategy on selling the Trump Koolaid. The past month, multiple "on air personalities" (dumbest fucking label ever! for a group of people with the collective personality of one garden snail) have been distancing from Trump and indeed, questioning ...

What a douchebag. Biden says they will cure cancer, so tchump's gotta outdo him and say they will cure many, many things, including cancer. Yeah, right after he finishes building the wall. DUMB FUCK!

From what I have read (is it true or false?)," the billionaires don't have to worry." And he wasn't in the debates in California- he had a more important event to attend. I am NOT well informed about the last bit- so more info is welcome.

It is funny but I fail to understand how black people could have anything to do with this racist. How sad. Laughing at trump just makes him do even more stupid stuff. MSM is doing it again too much free air time for this evil liar. I want to see much more coverage of the women running, like ...

Telling the truth in the Trump administration would be like filling your transmission with sand, it just wouldn't work.

Diogenes replies on Jun 20, 2019:

Telling the truth would be the same as writing your own dismissal.

@AnonySchmoose My major point, was sickies running around with guns- and "enjoying" their activity.

Diogenes replies on Jun 18, 2019:

@AnonySchmoose I agree with you. But then there is the subject of "hunting" as a "sport": the joy, the thrill, of killing something! Sick, wow, how very sick! The most gross, is when the head is cut off and the rest of the body is left.

I just finished watching the ABC story on Trump and the delusions that Trump has are incredible.

I agree with you. There are some religious people who are so very active in humanitarian work, that they don't care or have time to propagate religion- and I respect them! I respect them more than atheist, who only hate.
