Trump's face looks Papier-mâché in that Raw Story pic

don't really have an opinion either way about the kathy griffin thing other than that it's not/shouldn't be illegal

i agree, but also, Ms Griffin is not funny (clue: the gays love her)

I know from past experience working on trials. When you work a 16+ hour day the only pleasure you get is eating, and when meals come it's time to gorge. I imagine this is exascerbated by having the White House kitchen making you anything you want.

I wonder if he's had them reproduce KFC and McDonalds faves.

"This is a shark steak sandwich."

I like that movie and that scene, but it's a trifle misleading because presidents have to pay for their own personal food; they get a bill when they leave. Only state dinners are paid for from public coffers.

So the WH kitchen wouldn't just keep e.g. shark steaks around in case the prez asks for that specific unforeseeable thing. If that were so, imagine how much perfectly good food would spoil and get tossed, just because it wasn't the subject of a late-night potuswhim.

lol shark is the most common fish and chip shop seafood there is in aus, which renders that scene a lil odd.

Shark is super high in mercury, and fun to see on dives. Don't.

also by getting two scoops of ice cream when everyone else gets one, just so they remember that you're special

I remember reading about Nancy Reagan's shock that they were billed even for toothpaste.

the Rain Man of nationalism. (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 31 May 2017 02:15 (six years ago) link

It's rent-free housing, not a total free ride. Where else did Nancy ever live that provided her with free food and free toothpaste?

Nancy and Ronald should have stayed put. They didn't know when they were well off.

Sanpaku where did you get that pic? Was it in an article or some tumblr or what?

Probably this twitter comment:

Majority of State Dept has been fired and sits empty. Bannon and Miller now rule the country unchecked. Judges' orders ignored by DHS. pic.twitter.com/706oClSKRV

God January feels so long ago. every Trump-month (Trumpth?) feels like a year

Oh yeah. Unlikely much has changed.

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 31 May 2017 02:53 (six years ago) link

This twitter post seem to be the original posting this.

It's a bit dated, for sure. I've seen it a couple of times reiterating State Dept. staff griping about their current working conditions given the utter failure of the Trump WH to fill vacancies.

Are there "acting" ambassadors rn or what's the deal with that?

Treeship, Wednesday, 31 May 2017 03:01 (six years ago) link

For less attractive assignments, most are filled with career civil servants (there goes my hope of making a late life political donation to become ambassador to Bhutan).

Charles "Butt" Stanton (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 31 May 2017 03:04 (six years ago) link

That said, the number of embassies with no acting US ambassador, particularly in Europe, is remarkable:

Amos, Micah, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Jesus, and James

Europe: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, EU, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, NATO, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, United Kingdom, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland

Asia-Pacific: Australia, India, Singapore, South Korea

Mideast: Afghanistan, Djibouti, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Yemen

Americas: Argentina, Belize, Canada, Cuba, Haiti, Paraguay, Trinidad, Venezuela

Africa: Congo (DR), Côte d'Ivoire, Mauritius, Tanzania

If he does die in office I'm going to have to go live on a mountain like a hermit until the public mourning is over.
