GOIN’ SIDEWAYS

Goin’ Sideways

By D. S. Mitchell

Commentator

As a political commentator it is my job here at Calamity News and Politics to consistently come up with clever and funny twists to my often very serious political commentary. I saw a tweet this morning that was both amusing and true. I thought it summed up the U.S. political news of the day. Twitter is a place you can let your political uneasiness flower.

Twitter

Here is the Tweet I referred to. It is from @ktunnulty: “Donald Trump’s presidency has veered on to a road with no center lines or guard rails”.

Twitter is an important link to the Resistance and all the folks who see Donald Trump as the greatest danger to democracy since the forming of the Republic. Follow me on Twitter and other social media sites. The official Calamity News and Politics Twitter handle is @calamitypolitics.  Although Calamity detests Mark Zuckerberg, and Facebook, we are at least for the time being, on Facebook.

25 New Things To Smile About

25 New Things To Smile About

D. S. Mitchell

Step Back

Frequently, we need to step back and think of the positive things in our life.  It keeps things in prospective. Writing and researching for Calamity News and Politics is good for my psychological well-being. My psychological well-being is in top form. What better release could I have than a political blog. It let’s me let  off emotional steam. However, my blood pressure I fear, on some days is off the charts. I read somewhere in the past that it takes more energy to frown than smile. It would make sense, but I have no idea if it is proven science.  What I do know is that the current U.S. political scene is causing me to rage and scream. I am going to take a breath and urge you to do the same. I am going to smile and I want you to smile too.

Offered Smiles

See if any of these images bring a smile to your face, that will make me happy:

1.) Sunday edition N.Y. Times,  2.) Old family photos, 3.) Jelly beans, 4.) Running on the beach, 5.) Old issues of Mother Earth News, 6.) Finding something you thought you lost, 7.) Goodwill ‘treasures’, 8.) The feel of cashmere, 9.) Misty mornings, 10.) Yard sales, 11.) Comfortable shoes, 12.) First dates, 13.) Cuddling in front of a fire, 14.) A few bad habits, 15.) Bubble gum 16.) butterflies 17.) Pay day, 18.) Discover your passion, 19.) Start a blog, 20.) Take a walk 21.) Complete a task, 22.) Share a hug, 23.) Fresh flowers on the table. 24.) Hop scotch, 25.) A good night kiss.

Have a wonderful Sunday.  I’ll try not to post again until Monday, but I can’t promise.  There is a hell of a lot happening, and some of it literally sets my hair on fire. Remember to smile it is easier than frowning.

More Word Chains

D. S. Mitchell

Playtime

It’s playtime here at Calamity Politics. I love word chains, with a little politics thrown in. Hope that doesn’t bother you. Of course, I know you love politics, or you wouldn’t be reading Calamity Politics. Check out the following:

I can change lead to gold by changing one letter at a time, lead, load, goad, gold.

I can change less to more by changing one letter at a time, less, Tess, toss, moss, most, Mort, more.

I can change dog to cat by changing one letter at a time, dog, cog, cot, cat.

I can change find to lose by changing one letter at a time, find, fine, line, lone, lose.

I can change head to tail by changing one letter at a time, head, heal, teal, tell, tall, tail.

Thank You

I want to thank Rod L. Evans, PhD for the word chains, which I took with his permission directly from his great book, Tyrannosaurus Lex. Please look for it.

As a political commentator I must ask, can Donald Trump can change prison to pardon by changing one letter at a time?
