I couldn't. I have to really think to read children's stories to baby D, even though I love reading in general. I think its cause I read much faster than I can talk, so I have to make a conscious effort to slow down.

Am I senile and incapable?
Yes. You should book yourself into an old folks home immediately.

I had to 'star' in a 20 second video, three sentences, one continuous take.

I'd even written the 'script' myself, had agreementfrom the powers that be. Memorised it the previous evening.

Next morning, "oh we've changed a few bits ". So, several goes, concentrating on remembering the new bits. Then I was told that I looked too serious!

Won't last too long tho, at least half the country really are right of centre and the election really was rigged. This coup cannot persist. There will be a civil war which China will win.

WTF was the deal with Biden whispering into the mic in his latest presser?? Just fucking bizarre & more than a bit creepy.

He's also getting some push back after basically threatening war against US citizens while flapping his cockholster about the 2nd Amendment.

Kamala actually managed to find the border today, except she went to El Paso instead of the Rio Grand Valley.. so 800 miles from where she should have been.

The JFK quote should have been "I am a jam doughnut".

Most US Presidents are jokes. Often bad jokes in poor taste.

So you're equating mispronouncing with Biden's inability to string a coherent sentence together?.. & it's not just a one-off deal, there's are literally dozens of times where his brain just switched off while talking to people.
Question:
Mr. Vice President, I want to talk to you about inequality in schools and race. In a conversation about how to deal with segregation in schools back in 1975, you told a reporter, “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather. I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation, and I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.” You said that some 40 years ago, but as you stand here tonight, what responsibility do you think that Americans need to take to repair the legacy of slavery in our country?

And here is Biden's answer in full:
"Well, they have to deal with the … Look, there is institutional segregation in this country. And from the time I got involved, I started dealing with that. Redlining, banks, making sure that we are in a position where—

Look, we talk about education. I propose that what we take is those very poor schools, the Title 1 schools, triple the amount of money we spend from $15 to $45 billion a year. Give every single teacher a raise to the equal of … A raise of getting out of the $60,000 level.

No. 2, make sure that we bring in to the help with the stud—the teachers deal with the problems that come from home. The problems that come from home, we need… We have one school psychologist for every 1,500 kids in America today. It’s crazy. The teachers are required—I’m married to a teacher. My deceased wife is a teacher. They have every problem coming to them.

Make sure that every single child does, in fact, have three, four, and five-year-olds go to school. School! Not day care, school. We bring social workers into homes of parents to help them deal with how to raise their children. It’s not that they don’t want to help. They don’t know what— They don’t know what quite what to do. Play the radio. Make sure the television—excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night. The phone—make sure the kids hear words. A kid coming from a very poor school—er, a very poor background will hear 4 million words fewer spoken by the time they get there"
And then he added this if case anyone wasn't as confused as he is:
No, I’m going to go like the rest of them do, twice over, OK? Because here’s the deal. The deal is that we’ve got this a little backwards. And by the way, in Venezuela, we should be allowing people to come here from Venezuela. I know Maduro. I’ve confronted Maduro. No. 2, you talk about the need to do something in Latin America. I’m the guy that came up with $740 million to see to it those three countries, in fact, change their system so people don’t have to chance to leave. You’re all acting like we just discovered this yesterday! Thank you very much.

Well I'm glad he cleared that up & made his position crystal meth, er, clear.
