Things That Go Loop
How slipperiness in time affects politics
Well, I heard that Trump and Vance have decided that reality is not the way they really want to go.
But Marilyn Monroe called me the other day. “I’m doing NASCAR,” she told me.
“Why, M?” I asked her.
“I like going in circles, and that’s the fastest way I know,” she had to educate me.
“Circles, M… Are you trying to tell me that Trump and JD Couchfucker may be time travelers?”
“Not only time travelers, Space Aliens, too. And John, try not to call me M, in public at least, OK?”
“But you and I both know you’re the head of MI6. What, you want to hide it now?” I was getting exasperated.
“John, John, John!” she let me know. “There are more important things going on than the idiocy in your mind. I have to concentrate on the state of the whole world now. Trump and the rest of his crew were sent from Planet I-Want-To-Fuck-You…”
“To do what? I mean, to me, they’re just morons,” I irreligiously interjected rather intensely.
“John, if you knew the planet they came from, you wouldn’t say that.”
“Try me.”
