Thursday Tiedrich
yesterday was the first day of the Republican shutdown of our government, and Republicans spent it doing what they always do: swanning about like utter fucking shitheads, and shitheading up a storm.
let us document some of the atrocities.
remember how Donny stood up in front of eight hundred admirals and generals at Piss-Drunk Pete’s Big Hunkin’ WarriorFest and told them all that they should be using America’s cities for ‘military training’?
what an awesome idea. sure, instead of boring old basic training, let’s tell our soldiers, ‘hey, you want to know how to shoot a gun and go to war and stuff? okay, go practice on Americans first.’
of course you remember. it was one of the evilest things ever to spew out of Donny’s rancid anus-mouth. it’s unforgettable.
oh no wait, there’s one guy who’s apparently in the dark. I guess he wandered away from the TV right at that moment.
I’m talking of course about Holy Mike Johnson, the limpest dick in Congress. he has no fucking clue what everyone’s so riled up about.
George Stephanopoulos: “Trump said yesterday that he wants American cities to be used as ‘training grounds’ for the military. is that the highest and best use of the military?”
Holy Mike: “I run the House. and what we need to be talking about today is real harm that the American people are going to feel because of what Schumer is doing.”
Stephanopoulos: “hold on a second. answer the question. as Speaker, do you believe it’s appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people ‘the enemy within’?”
Holy Mike: “I’m not commenting on your characterization of what the president said.”
Stephanopoulos: “those are quotes. they are not characterizations.”
Holy Mike: “well you can take his quotes out of context, which you often do, and I don’t think that’s fair to the president.”
ah, there we go. that’s what all these cowardly Republican shitheads do when called upon defend one of Donny’s crazypants mouth-farts: whine about how it’s so unfair for Dear Leader’s words to be taken out of context.
taken out of what context? there’s only one context, that of a demented sadist horny to inflict suffering and death on cities that displease him.
but wait, Holy Mike’s not done being a shithead.
here’s a name you need to know: Adelita Grijalva.
Grijalva, a Democrat from Arizona’s 7th district, was elected to the House last week. she replaces her father, the late Raúl Grijalva, who died while in office. here’s a fun, awesome fact about Adelita: once sworn in, she’ll be the 218th — and deciding — vote in favor of Thomas Massie’s discharge petition to release the full Epstein Files.
so, if she was elected a week ago, why the fuck hasn’t she been sworn in yet?
I just explained why, weren’t you listening? she hasn’t been sworn in specifically because she’s the deciding vote to force the release of the Epstein Files — and Holy Mike doesn’t want any of that shit to happen.
if Grijalva were a Republican, and a reliable no vote for Massie’s petition, Holy Mike would have sworn her in the moment her plane landed in DC. but she’s not.
so, Adelita sits and waits. what’s that old saying? oh yeah: justice delayed is justice denied. release the full, unedited Epstein Files, you fucking fucks.
here’s the next shithead on our list: Vice President Couchfuck McGee.
the White House sent the furniture molester out to do Shutdown Damage Control yesterday, and he used his time to play a vigorous round of Things That Never Happened The Most.
“if you’re an American citizen and you’ve been to the hospital in the last few years, you’ve probably noticed that wait times are especially large and very often somebody who’s there in the emergency room, waiting, is an illegal alien, very often it’s a person who can’t speak speak English. why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens? the answer is a decision made by the Biden administration.”
fact check: go fuck a couch.
the reason that any person can go to an emergency room and get treatment is the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, which was signed into law by that well-known commie marxist radical leftist lunatic, Ronald Reagan, in 1986.
but Couchfuck never passes up an opportunity to demonize immigrants. he wants you to imagine that you can’t get treatment, because ERs nationwide have all been overrun by swarthy hordes going ‘help me, doctor, I was eating my neighbor’s pets and I dropped the skillet on my foot, and now my big toe is all hurty.’
but I have a question: where was Donny? why wasn’t the Mad King out there, taking questions from the press? that fucker loves a camera.
there was only one item on Donny’s official schedule yesterday: another executive order dog-and-pony show.
and unless I missed something, I’m pretty sure even that didn’t happen — or, at the least, Donny signed orders without making a show of it in front of the press, which seems super fucking unlikely.
and there’s nothing public on Donny official schedule for today.
here we go again. the desperately-needy attention-trollop who can’t go fifteen minutes without finding a camera to stand in front of is missing in action, in the middle of the juiciest story of the year: a government shutdown. you would figure he would have endless bullshit to say about it — so where is he?
is Donny having another mysterious medical event that we’ll never get told about?
or maybe Preznit Fuckwit is out of sight because he’s hard at work bringing an end to the seventeen thousandth imaginary war — which, by the way, the whole fucking world is laughing at us over.
need proof? here’s a thing that just happened right now, while I’m in the middle of writing this piece:
U.S. President Donald Trump’s geographic confusion was the butt of a joke between world leaders at a summit Thursday.
Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama was filmed poking fun with French President Emmanuel Macron and Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev at the European Political Community meeting in Copenhagen on Thursday.
“You should make an apology … to us because you didn’t congratulate us on the peace deal that President Trump made between Albania and Azerbaijan,” Rama told Macron, leading Aliyev to burst out laughing.
“I am sorry for that,” Macron joked.
tell me, is there a Nobel Prize for being a complete fucking embarrassment?
ooks like we have time for one more shithead: Noseferatu McGoebbels.
listen to this over-amped maniac salivate over the idea of a military invasion of Memphis. he’s apparently hopped up on the kind of sugar high you can only get from biting the heads off of live bats.
“all that bullshit is done, over, it’s finished. the gangbangers you deal with — they think they’re ruthless? they have no idea how ruthless we are. they think they’re tough? they have no idea how tough we are. they think they’re hardcore? we are so much more hardcore than they are.”
lighten the fuck up, tough guy. who’s ‘we’? Nosferatu McGoebbels is what would happen if ‘oh yeah? you and what army?’ became a real boy.
I have, as always, a question: why is Stephen Miller calling in air strikes on Venezuelan fishermen?
Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, has played a leading role in directing US strikes against suspected Venezuelan drug boats, according to three people familiar with the situation. At times, his role has superseded that of Marco Rubio, the secretary of state and national security adviser.
I don’t know much about militarying, but I’m pretty sure that White House deputy chief of staff isn’t supposed to be part of the chain of command.
‘there’s a boat in the water? oh, I’m sorry, neither the president nor the secretary of state is available right now, but here’s the chief of staff’s assistant.’
yeah, let’s put an undead racist in charge of deciding which fishing boats get blown to fuck. what could possibly go wrong?
and now — because you’ve earned it by reading down this far — here’s your hero of the day: Democratic Rep. Madeleine Dean.
yesterday, Rep. Dean cornered Holy Mike in the halls of Congress and got him to make a very interesting confession.
Madeleine Dean: “the president is unhinged. he is unwell.”
Holy Mike: “a lot of folks on your side are, too.”
Dean: “oh my god, please. that performance in front of the generals?”
Holy Mike: “I didn’t see it.”
Dean: “it’s so dangerous! our allies are looking elsewhere. our enemies are laughing. you have a president who is unwell.”
did you catch that? when Dean said Donny was unhinged and unwell, Holy Mike didn’t say ‘no he isn’t’ — he said ‘a lot of folks on your side are, too.’
‘too.’
Republicans know their Mad King is fucking nuts. they all know.
let’s go. 25th Amendment now. after which, release the Epstein Files.
this is going to be my closing message for the foreseeable future:
practice self-care. do what you need to do to keep sane. if that means you need to disengage with my daily posts for a while, I get it. this community of ours will still be here when you return.
to all the people who have signed on in the days since the election, welcome aboard. settle in as we all try to deal with the shitfuckery that’s ahead of us.
we are all in this together, and we are all here for each other.

Ugh.
A massive new peer-reviewed review (161 studies, 2+ million patients) makes it clear: COVID-19 isn’t just a respiratory infection. It’s a multi-system disease leaving lasting scars on lungs, heart, brain, kidneys, and more.
Among hospitalized patients the numbers are stark.
Lungs – 78% affected
Heart – 32%
Nervous system – 43%
Kidneys – 28%
Months later, 10-35% still live with organ dysfunction.
Why? The virus triggers:
a cytokine storm (immune system fire),
endothelial injury (blood vessels damaged),micro-clots that choke tiny capillaries.
In hospital wards we’ve seen it all.
Lungs scarred, oxygen capacity never the same.
Hearts inflamed, misfiring into arrhythmias.
Brains hit with strokes, encephalitis, or lingering brain fog.
Kidneys failing, some never recovering.
Immune systems knocked off balance, even turning against the body.
Variants changed the picture but not the playbook. Delta hit harder in the lungs. Omicron shifted to upper airways, with less loss of smell/taste.
But the core mechanisms – vascular injury, inflammation, clotting – remain.
But what about those who never set foot in a hospital? This is where the story often gets dismissed. No oxygen, no ICU, you’re fine. Except – many aren’t.
The data on mild cases is harder to pin down – studies use different definitions, follow people for different lengths of time. That’s why this review doesn’t give hard percentages for non-hospitalized patients.
Still, the evidence is consistent:
Even after mild COVID, people report and show measurable changes.
Lungs – lingering breathlessness, chronic cough, exercise intolerance, even post-COVID asthma.
Heart – chest pain, palpitations, POTS-like dysautonomia.
Brain – brain fog, memory lapses, persistent loss of smell/taste, neuropathy.
Kidneys – subtle declines in function (protein in urine, lower eGFR).
Gut & liver – IBS-like symptoms, altered gut microbiome, sometimes persistent enzyme elevation.
Immune & hormones – crushing fatigue, new autoantibodies, disrupted menstrual cycles, lowered testosterone.
Mental health – anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, slowed cognition.
The difference isn’t whether damage exists. The difference is how it shows up.
Hospitalized – dramatic, organ failure, visible on scans.
Mild cases – quieter, widespread dysregulation that chips away at quality of life.
The authors conclusion is blunt – COVID-19 is a multi-system infection with silent aftermaths. It requires long-term monitoring, multi-disciplinary care, and targeted therapies.
This was never just the flu.
The cost isn’t just human.
Ongoing disability, reduced productivity, long-term medical care – COVID’s hidden damage is already reshaping healthcare systems and economies.
The price tag will echo for decades.
None of this was inevitable.
With stronger public health response – better prevention, ventilation, vacc strategies – we could have reduced both the human and economic toll.
Ignoring COVID’s long shadow only compounds the loss.
The source for this is a Facebook group which I obviously (not being a member of that particular social hellscape) do not have access to, so I can’t verify anything quoted. But on the surface it makes sense.

Waiting For Her Response
Dear Democrats In Congress
Jefferies & Schumer are not meeting the moment.
Now is not the time for “sternly worded letters” and disappointed dad speeches.
Now is the time for naming and shaming.
Now is the time for fire and brimstone.
Now is the time meeting fire with fire and if you are not up to then make way for those that can!

Health Update
WARNING: TOO MUCH OVERSHARING AHEAD
4 weeks post surgery. Healing continues. Left side of my jaw and chin is still mostly numb, although sensation is definitely coming back and it’s better than it was three weeks ago.
The left side of my face is still a bit swollen, but at least I don’t resemble American Dad like I did when I first got out of the hospital.
(That was no exaggeration. Again sorry, no pictures!)
Despite one side of my jaw and lower lip being numb, my speech is still understandable and everyone says my voice is still pretty much the same as it was prior to surgery. At first it felt like I was speaking with a mouthful of cotton, but that’s dissipated over the past few weeks either because I’ve grown used to it, or because of further healing.
I’m supposedly still NPO, but who am I to follow all the rules? I’ve had swallowing issues for years and have learned to deal with them. Even my doctors say, “Well, you shouldn’t be eating, but since you have developed ways of dealing with the swallowing issues you had before and you feel confident you’re not going to choke…wink wink nudge nudge.” So right now I’m in a kind of hybrid space. Swallowing is still an issue (as is opening my mouth wide enough to get any normal amount of food shoveled into it), but I know my limits. I have been eating soft foods and drinking, but also continuing to use the feeding tube for medications and the tasteless formula I need to ingest to keep my calorie count up. (Sorry, no pictures.) I’ve also shed the easiest 20 pounds I’ve lost since my last cancer—something I’m not upset about in the least.
The area on my wrist where tissue was harvested to patch the hole left where the tumor was removed from the back of my tongue—while looking awful—is exactly where it should at this point in the healing process according to my surgeon. I keep telling myself that six months from now everything will look normal…or at least close to it. The area on my thigh were they harvested skin to patch my wrist is completely healed although still bright red. (Again, totally normal.)
The back of my tongue on the other hand, looks great. I failed to ask for a photo when he scoped me a week ago. I will remember to do that when I see him next month (and will share it).
My energy level isn’t yet back to what it was prior to all this happening, but again, that’s to be expected. I spend most afternoons napping and then regret it in the evenings as it leaves me feeling more worn out and generally “sick” than I did beforehand. Night time sleep has also been a mess, although last night was the first time I’ve slept longer than in hour-long increments.
The good news in all this is that the surgery got all of the cancer, including the bit that had “nerve and vascular involvement.” No evidence of it spreading to any lymph nodes or anywhere else. Still, my ENT wants to followup with further therapy “just in case.”
Since I went through radiation for my previous cancer, I flat out refused that as his recommended next course of action. I’m not going to put myself through that again and working in the same area as twenty years ago carries—per my radiation oncologist—the very real danger of “blowing out my carotids.” So…
Keeping that in mind, my ENT then suggested Immunotherapy, so that’s my next stop on this journey. I meet with that oncologist in a couple weeks.
