Kitchen Table Kibitzing is a community series for those who wish to share part of the evening around a virtual kitchen table with readers of Daily Kos who aren’t throwing pies at one another.
Drop by and tell us about your weather, your garden, or what you cooked for supper. Newcomers may notice that many who post diaries and comments in this series already know one another to some degree, but we welcome guests at our kitchen table, and hope to make some new friends as well.

#crazypants Music MondayI’ll let Aerosmith start us out, with a ballad
x xYouTube Videoand of course there’s the classic “Crazy” from Patsy Cline
x xYouTube Video
and the undeniably “Crazy” from the current Occupier of the Oval Office, commentary from Late Night with Seth Meyers:
x xYouTube VideoOf course it doesn’t stop there. There’s the multiple tweets about NFL football WHILE 3.5 million Americans in Puerto Rico are STILL waiting for aid and succor. There’s the latest attack on the PPACA (which became a DOA bill at about 3:15 pm TODAY when Senator Susan Collins became the 3rd and final nail in the coffin of Lindey Graham’s #crazypants bill to repeal and replace Obamacare).
There is also the overall and never-ending thought that we are lead by a fucking White Supremacist grifter from Hell. Ah, well, there’s always the 25th Amendment and Impeachment to stop him. IF we can take the House in 2018.
How crazy is Trump?He is either TRYING to start a nuclear exchange with North Korea, which is crazy by definition; or he’s unaware that what he says publicly (ON TWITTER!!!) can lead to real-world consequences (like a fucking nuclear winter).
This is his latest missive to Kim Jong Un —
xJust heard Foreign Minister of North Korea speak at U.N. If he echoes thoughts of Little Rocket Man, they won't be around much longer!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 24, 2017Tell me, doesn’t THAT sound like goddamned Mafia thug warning someone they’re about to be killed? How in the world is it possible to keep this asshole as our President?
What I did this weekendNot what I was expecting. I was supposed to be doing a big How did the #FreewayBlogging over Labor Day go piece on Saturday.
Instead, I was busy with a contractor about the part of my roof which is leaking all over the living room last week when it rained A LITTLE BIT for a hour. Ouch.
Did watch the first season of the Jamie Bamber version of Battlestar Galactica. SyFy Channel brought it out of storage this weekend. If you never saw it, or even if you did see over a decade ago? Go watch it, again or for the first time. I forgot just how good it is.
Played with my 3 year old grandchild for a while. She’s hilarious and serious all at the same time, and bright as a mid-July morning. Has the vocab of a six year old already. She’s gonna be a handful and a half for someone, some day. Hope I’m still around to watch that.
How did your weekend go?
