Thanks, Gran.
Slathered eucalyptus oil on my chest this morning. Not quite the scent I normally like, but oh well.
I’m used to my non-sleeping patterns as well. I’m just so thankful I don’t have to go anywhere if I don’t want to. I don’t even have to get dressed lol (which often happens).
Prepare for total economic collapse.
These morons in the White House are about to destroy our country.

I know what you mean, I have many PJ days too.
The biggest decision I make these days is what to have for dinner.😁
You are not wrong.

Goolag/YooToob has deleted Oliver Stone's documentary "UKRAINE ON FIRE" about the 2014 coup. Gee, I wonder why they don't want you to see it? You can still watch it on Rumble. @WRSA
Lol, I thought the same thing when I first read the article.
Yeah....this admin leaves that important part out!!
Thx.
First, and most importantly, virtually no one in the US has got this right, including conservative outlets and pundits. Putin's a thug, but he's an excellent politician and a strong leader. And he’s not crazy, as some seem to surmise. He is a cold, calculating, strategic thinker who has disciplined his mind and body for decades. He’s a Russia first guy. Think Donald Trump minus all that hot air, Big Macs, and add a willingness to off his enemies.
We promised Russia we would not expand NATO when the Soviet Union fell. We went back on that promise and incorporated almost the entire Eastern Bloc into NATO.
Then after 9/11, Bush II unilaterally cancelled the '72 ABM treaty, which until then had frozen nuclear weapon development in the Soviet Union and the US, effectively ending the arms race. Bush's rationale was that we needed to develop new nuclear weapon tech to defeat terrorism. Like we were going to nuke Osama Bin Laden.
Bush's rationale for NATO expansion was also terrorism. So, Bush triggered a fresh arms race. Bush was a decent man, but the more time goes by, the more he looks like an absolute moron to me.
Ukraine belonged to Russia for centuries. They have almost identical cultures and languages. Kiev used to be the capital of Russia. Putin's war is a war of defense. Russia (rightly, in my view) feels threatened by NATO expansion. Russia is a mainly land-based, continental power which desires a buffer with the West. Ukraine serves that purpose perfectly.
The US triggered a coup d'état in Ukraine in 2014, overthrowing the democratically elected president who was Russia friendly, and installing a pro-western, pro-NATO leader. Putin has had his eye on Ukraine ever since but dared not do anything when Trump was in power because he feared and respected Trump. ....more, at link.
HA HA HA HA,
I would be fired also for winning first prize dressed as Farina on the little rascals, hubby went as Alfalfa.
So did I.
What does that say about us.
I think we should roundup all BLM, Antifa and Hollyweirds to be our fighting force that we send to foreign wars.
None of this sending OUR sons and daughters to die for these concocted wars.
I have lost of pajama days.
Grandson comes over and says, another pajama day Nana?
Do you have a link for rumble on that?
Where’s FRAUDci?
We may not know where he is right now but we sure do know where he belongs...
.......
Good article, thanks for posting.
It makes much more sense than all the clap-trap that our government is trying to push on us.
The only side I am on in this Russia/Ukraine war is on the side of the innocent Ukranian people.
From the article......
Trump’s right: Putin is a genius. Unfortunately, we seem to be in a historically rare period in which the leaders of 1.5 billion people, i.e., the West, are to a person either feckless, obtuse, senile or some combination of the three.
Now that we have President Potted Plant in office, Putin has made his move. BTW, the story is that Russian annexed Crimea some years ago. Putin’s version is that the Crimeans had a plebiscite, and over 90% voted to leave Ukraine and join Russia. That alone should give you an idea of what a dysfunctional country Ukraine is.
Putin has no intention of “reconstituting the Soviet Union.” That’s a big fat lie. This war is the West’s fault, not Putin’s. At any time, we could have discussed these issues with him. Instead of seeking closer ties with Russia (as Trump was attempting — he even talked about disbanding NATO, since Russia is no longer a territorial threat to Europe), we constantly antagonize Russian with our NATO expansion.

excellent short explanation
Spot on, Iron Munro!
Dr. Death and his minions all need to be behind bars.
I go for comfort over beauty any day of the week since I have become a couch potato.
However, I can’t go the Walmart route and wear my PJs to the store.
I draw the line at that.😁
Tell grandson he will look back fondly and think of you in your PJs as he gets to be your age and he will understand.
Thanks for the link, norsky.
