The magical thinking of New Age frauds and the magical thinking of the Trump/Q-Anon frauds are the same kind of wishful gibberish, transcending any kind of ideology, don’t be surprised when overlap manifests.

If we give the White House squatter a silver medal on the way out the door, maybe he’ll finally leave? “Second place! That’s still pretty good!” If that’s what it takes.

Complaining about Christmas music being early is kind of moot, y’know? This is the year the calendar stopped. What does the month even matter? As long as it isn’t “Christmas Wrapping” by the Waitresses, bring it on.

Asked what he would do if he won big on Wheel of Fortune, the pirate shrugged. “I’d like to buy an eye.”
