Diogenes's Profile

Must have been bone spurs.

Diogenes comments on Aug 19, 2018:

Trump's comedy is getting VERY REPTITIOUS- and very boring!

Goodnight Kitty

Diogenes comments on Aug 19, 2018:

With all the bad news in the world, it is pleasant to see something peaceful.

If Trump's IQ slips any lower, we'll have to water him twice a day.

Diogenes comments on Aug 18, 2018:

Come on- nobody waters the village pet rock!

A cartoon that hits the nail right on the head

Diogenes comments on Aug 18, 2018:

Yes, "love"- but is there 'enough love to force change'?

Does anyone have a very complicated form of insomnia?

Diogenes comments on Aug 18, 2018:

I just have no answers. Again I awoke at 03:00. By 11:00, I will be very tired, and may sleep for an hour. Yes, after a few nights of this, I may pass out from exhaustion and go to sleep--- only to start the cycle all over again.

Stop judging him!

Diogenes comments on Aug 18, 2018:

Trump's clown act is no longer shocking- it has committed the cardinal sin; it is VERY BORING. He should do something really shocking- take a break, and for the first time in his life, tell the truth about something. Can anyone imagine the physical pain that he would go through trying to do that one?

I think I am back on the insomnia train :)

Diogenes comments on Aug 17, 2018:

Well I have been up since 03:00- awake since about 01:30. I'm in a coffee shop having a coffee. So tired -but I can't rest. Lack of sleep is quite a trap.

This makes me think of all the teeth whitening commercials from a couple of years ago.

Diogenes comments on Aug 16, 2018:

Teeth would look very strange if they were as white as this computer screen. Why isn't the obvious, obvious?

Perhaps this has been posted before. I like it though.

Diogenes comments on Aug 16, 2018:

So for the constant ass-hole that invites confrontation, forget about "that offends me" and just break his nose. Forget about wasting words.

This makes me think of all the teeth whitening commercials from a couple of years ago.

Diogenes comments on Aug 16, 2018:

Something of value, tangible or non-tangible, has more worth than expensive 'trash'.

We have now entered --

Diogenes comments on Aug 15, 2018:

Isn't everything mentioned so obvious? And he, the dick-taker, wants a big parade. I had 10 years of parades- but of course I had no second choice- I was in the air force.

Drugs for insomnia.

Diogenes comments on Aug 14, 2018:

I am NOT into the drug-bit. PLEASE, do not be offended. I am older than 'gaud', so I must take some- and, yes I did not sleep last night. I quit taking blood pressure pills- and everyday that I do a hard work-out at fitness my blood pressure is one or two points from optimal and I sleep better too. I am taking pills for gout, (haven't had a gout attack in five years) and if I stopped drinking a couple of beers a day, I could probably stop those. My point: let nutritious food and enjoyable living be your "drug". And no, I don't have all the answers

Do you think tRump is genuinely mentally ill?

Diogenes comments on Aug 13, 2018:

Why is there even a question about his sanity? Just how much evidence is needed? The cardinal question is where have such a large distempered pack of his supporters come from?

Remember those campaign promises

Diogenes comments on Aug 12, 2018:

"His golf game is improving", Uh-huh, that must mean that he even lies on the golf course!

Do you think tRump is a racist?

Diogenes comments on Aug 11, 2018:

Why is there such a question---- when the answer is SO apparent?

“Yeah, I have a problem with the absolutism of that.

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

I think it is willpower too- but more than that it is a matter of looking at reality. Replacing that which we 'think' we need, with something that is better. Booze, or drugs cost a lot of money, which for many, makes life hard. Any tranquility is short lived. Call overeating, "gluttony" and think about how it makes a person look.

“Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason.” MarkTwain (maybe)

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

Certainly

Hoping a lot of Trump voters have this!

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

I doubt that Trump voters have either foresight or hindsight.

9/08/2018 - Diet Diary - Thursday, closing in on the weekend.

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

I know what I should do- I just need the will to do it. Along with depression, comes the stress eating. I know also that I should 'enjoy' my meals: some spectacular veggies, that taste wonderful. An "All you can eat", restaurant, to me is such a gross idea; it is a celebration of sloth. Long ago I lost 46 pounds- and have kept it off, but I still want to lose another 20 pounds, which would bring me to a normal, athletic weight. I certainly am not anorexic. I know that fat is the normal in this current, strange world- while constant hunger and starvation are what is inflicted on the rest.

My insomnia seems to come in waves.

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

Yes, getting a few hours of normal sleep seems to be an exception for me. But then I am so tired about 1 pm. Maybe if I could stay awake in the day I would be tired at night.

Sorry, no kitty picture. My 4-hour sleep cycle is up, so here I am.

Diogenes comments on Aug 10, 2018:

Hoi. Het spijt zulk slechte nederlandse alstublief. Je ben uit Nederland? Tot ziens.

Seems like Traitor Trump needs a little push... Who will sign up?

Diogenes comments on Aug 8, 2018:

In the Mueller cartoon, the caption should not be, "Do you know who I am?", but "Do you know WHAT I am?"

He Lies All The Time

Diogenes comments on Aug 6, 2018:

Now come on, "Lies all the time"! Trump is not the smartest carrot pulled out of the veggie patch- sometimes he makes a 'mistake', and tells the truth, which he quickly counters, with 50 more conflicting lies.

Halloween's not far away.

Diogenes comments on Aug 6, 2018:

With Trump Halloween is 365- and scary too.

Just spent 48 hours on the North Country Trail in Western Michigan.

Diogenes comments on Aug 4, 2018:

I've read your bio. Congrats; way to go. I was born when gaud was a teenager- so I too do not move as fast as I used to do. I quit smoking (get this) about 45 years ago. In the spring of 2017 there was a month-long machine rowing contest, with 24 members, at fitness- I came first with 370 km. It's amazing that some people can't name their most valuable asset. Their car? Their castle? Their large bank account? "It is my opinion" (if that matters),if they don't try to live a healthy, productive life, they will die early and have no access to any of this worthless junk. Enjoy your day

God hates porn?

Diogenes comments on Aug 4, 2018:

I have stopped watching porn- the acting is so bad; all the actors must have breathing problems, the way they overdo the panting. But I can't figure it out. A program may come on TV and before the program starts there is a DIRE warning, "Sexual content and may offend some viewers." When the news comes on there is no warning, and there are scenes of blood and guts all over the place- little children maimed. Gaud-dude, the dude that fornicated with the so-called Virgin Mary, can send me to his theme park, Hell, for having sex, watching sex--- but he won't get me for 'enjoying murder and the creation of misery'. That would be rather sickening.

Who will protect the Ostriches???

Diogenes comments on Aug 3, 2018:

With all the Trump supporters in the wagon about to go over the cliff to their demise, in real life there would be one holding a sign saying, "A little faster".

Diogenes comments on Jul 24, 2018:

From that photo, unlike the one of him showing total disrespect to the queen with him walking in front of her as if she wasn't even there- Putin is doing the same thing to the village idiot.

I canvassed for a local candidate for Congress yesterday.

Diogenes comments on Jul 23, 2018:

First of all I am in Canada- but working for justice applies to everyone throughout the whole world. You say you are a "Socialist"; glad to hear that. Most of Europe has some form of a socialist government, and things work well. Yes, there are exceptions. But then we need to get down to details- there needs to be taxes collected, to pay for social services. THAT, of course, is not what DJT is doing. He is 'cutting' social services and medical. If, for example, he cut taxes for 50 people of the middle class, hypothetically, they would buy 50 pairs of shoes. He gives the rich a huge tax cut (that will increase the national debt); they too buy shoes, 10 pair- for themselves, and pocket the rest. And gotta have a huge military expenditure, "because wars are fun". (Wonder how his "heel spurs" are.)

Went to the bar last night and ordered a white Russian. They gave me a picture of Trump

I wasn't the biggest Hillary fan (my pick was Bernie) but I did vote for her, and this meme rings ...

Diogenes comments on Jul 19, 2018:

Bernie should have been first choice. Hillary and Donald James are both crooks- but at least she is sane!

Diogenes comments on Jul 16, 2018:

The, now "queen", and too pompous person, was once a very good looking young girl. If she had been in any ordinary high school, she would have been considered a 'hot'. Poor brain dead slobs!!!

Next visit? Vlad.... Must get the right dress there as well.

A skinny sow- is still a sow.

Just watched the Putin and his puppet interview.

Hey, you spelled, "Dick-taker" incorrectly.

Watch out for the one wearing a tribble.

Diogenes comments on Jul 16, 2018:

What is a "tribble". I was born in the last century; ain't up on this stuff. I realize he wears, "toy hair" or a "hair hat". Otherwise?

I like the way he says he's a stable genius.

Diogenes comments on Jul 16, 2018:

Don't like Trump being compared to horses- or dogs. Most horses and dogs, have intelligence and a sense of loyalty. Is there more that needs to be said?

Highly thought of in Germany as well!

Diogenes comments on Jul 15, 2018:

The blimp makes "IT" look too good.

A wonderful insight into Australian politics.

Diogenes comments on Jul 15, 2018:

This was about Oz politics. In Canada, 'or this side of the Water', we see very little about what goes on in Australia. But from what I could see from that video, it was about two fat clowns blabbing at the same time- and nothing was distinguishable. I guess that was your point?

I found a brilliant post, it says EXACTLY what I think.

Zhe may no longer be POO- but she will be forever 'poo'. (non-gendered pronouns were part of kindergarten's so-called "sex education")

Diogenes comments on Jul 1, 2018:

I must admit; I am NOT up to date on this. Yes, I have read and seen a 'bit' about Turkey. It does sound like what Trump is doing.

Sage advice.

Diogenes comments on Jun 26, 2018:

In any free society, there's something to think about. When the law forces dumb citizens to vote, the US, or any other democratic country, get more dumb votes.

What books should all atheists read?

Diogenes comments on Jun 24, 2018:

I don't get your point. Religion is so foolish; why would any thinking person take the time to confront it? Have they nothing better to do with their time? It tells me where their so-called "intellect" is. I am an agnostic- I am interested in what this experience is about- but I will accept no quasi answers- or outright fiction either.

Children are bargaining chips

Diogenes comments on Jun 19, 2018:

I have No interest in religion; occasionally the practitioners of religion can be unintentionally funny- but it takes bipeds like Trump, Pence, Coulter--- to jerk a person back to reality, and to see that these beasties are ultra evil.

Children are bargaining chips

Diogenes comments on Jun 19, 2018:

Wish there was an 'Agree' choice on this site- which is my choice, 100%, "Like", no- even though I agree with the cartoons and insightful contributions.

Stephen Miller (Remember his face).

Diogenes comments on Jun 18, 2018:

He has such a vacuous looking face. He has a Trump-like face, nothing under the skin.

When Trump comes to Scotland we'll be protesting

Diogenes comments on Jun 17, 2018:

Question is, he wouldn't like a massive crowd booing him, would he go to Scotland?

Gilead is here.

Diogenes comments on Jun 17, 2018:

Such fantastic, well-drawn cartoons. I pushed the "Like" selection, because there wasn't a second choice. The cartoonist hit the point though- I pretend that I can draw cartoons, but I am in awe of this work.--- and yes AnneWimsey the subject is damned "HORRIBLE". The perpetrator of the crime,DJT, needs to be brought to immediate trial.

Please support Rob Rogers if you can.

Diogenes comments on Jun 16, 2018:

I just tried to post a comment on here. It would not post. One of the things I said was that "1984" was already here, where yesterday's events never happened, or were "false news" and today's 'theatre' was about to begin. In many totalitarian countries, like Trumpland, cartoonists and commentators, who do their jobs, lose their jobs---- or worse.

Historic Summit?

Diogenes comments on Jun 15, 2018:

If DJT managed to do something 'positive', by mistake, he will soon change it- in his tiny world everything must be moronic and evil.

This made me lol loud!

Diogenes comments on Jun 12, 2018:

But there should be a continuation: "Impeach me; I dare you". His brainless ego always has to get the last word in.

"Sorry, Donald, but until you behave, you DON'T get to sit at the grownups table."

Diogenes comments on Jun 10, 2018:

He has 'that' expression on his face- "I am a moron, and what are you going to do about it?" It isn't long before the leaders of the world start to openly call it like it is. Merkel is looking 'down' at the half wit and her expression almost has sound.

Looks like Melania is easing toward the door.

Diogenes comments on Jun 8, 2018:

Yes, start a pool. Even someone who sells their ass may get to the point where they realize they have sold it a few hundred percent too cheap. Can anyone imagine any woman going to bed with that brainless slob?

Problem is, he's not telling it like it is and draining any swamp because he doesn't KNOW a fucking ...

Diogenes comments on Jun 8, 2018:

Point is, Trump IS the swamp- and he is filling it with sewage.

TRump just keeps piling up the shit doesn't he.

Diogenes comments on Jun 3, 2018:

When Americans read between the lines, DTJ is doing everything he said he was going to do- create massive unemployment worldwide (it IS coming) he can't flippitantly rip up every trade deal; a nuc war (the draft dodger must have a war), he has already set up a dictatorship. Although Trump, with his nanosecond attention span, does not have the ability to form a plan, he is steadfastly destroying the US, each and every time.

He is so tired ?!

Diogenes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

The point is, that Trump is so OPENLY breaking the law. Trump's Mar-a-Lago is NOT part of the American Government, and to be paid for with citizen's taxes, while making such a huge profit for Trump. Camp David is the presidential retreat. This theft is so open; not even the slightest attempt to cover it up.

Watch out, we're in batshit crazy mode...

Diogenes comments on Jun 1, 2018:

I have said this before: If Trump told the 'truth', by accident, he would have to tell 50 lies, each conflicting with the other, to cover his one and only trip into reality.

Sad, so, so sad

Is it really possible to live your life and not have any regrets.

Diogenes comments on May 26, 2018:

I have very many regrets for the bad and 'evil' (yes) choices I've made- and now that I know the correct options, I am too old to make changes. I If Nature provides a second life as a human, and one could remember the faults of the first life, would there be the courage to enact what was good and just? Many 'good people' die some very horrible deaths. That's why Trump will live forever- or it will, at least, seem like that.

Briefing From Advisers

Diogenes comments on May 11, 2018:

Yes, but you are missing the whole point; Trump has no "advisors". "He" is the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, or whatever office he decides to be, in the middle of the night, when he is tweeting, his next oracle.

Diogenes comments on May 8, 2018:

Diogenes comments on Apr 28, 2018:

When I see Ben Carson, such an evil bastard, I would rather be black------ and outside of Trump's insane joke. Look at all those white, sucking-up, clowns. A decent person, of any colour, green, would not be part of Trump's joke, but Carson, the only black, is doing his evil bit.

Looks like MACRON, is on the opposite side of trump!! We really aren't alone, after all!

Diogenes comments on Apr 26, 2018:

I listened to Macron last night and I have just read The Borowitz Report. They got on this right away. They compared Macron, a person who is comfortable with English and speaks it well, to someone who has no first, or second, language either. Gibberish is not a language- obviously.

Positive/negative, give/take, yin/yang.... Any opinions?

Diogenes comments on Apr 14, 2018:

I feel it is necessary to have good and bad, yin and yang, not because I particularly like "bad", but if there is no "bad", how does one know what "good' is? I have a problem though when it seems that the world is overrun by evil; when only the practicioners of evil, currently, one example, Trump and his psycophants, are the only ones to enjoy the pleasures of life.
