  1. A quotation from Josh Billings

    Whenever yu cum akrost a man, who praizes yu immoderately, and kusses every boddy else in proportion, yu kan make up yure mind, that yure turn for kussing will cum soon.
     
    [Whenever you come across a man, who praises you immoderately, and cusses everybody else in proportion, you can make up your mind, that your turn for cussing will come soon.]

    Josh Billings (1818–1885) American humorist, aphorist [pseud. of Henry Wheeler Shaw]
    Josh Billings’ Farmer’s Allminax, 1878-09 (1878 ed.)

  5. A quotation from Richard Steele

    Whenever you commend, add your reasons for doing so; it is this which distinguishes the approbation of a man of sense from the flattery of sycophants and admiration of fools.

    Richard Steele (1672–1729) Anglo-Irish writer, journalist, playwright, politician
    Essay (1713-04-08), The Guardian, No. 24

    We’ve all (Americans and non-Americans alike) got a beef with #47 for obvious reasons none of which seems to bother main stream media (msm) apparently. And, my biggest beef is precicely with msm and the meticulous attention they pay on #POTUS ‘s mad ravings and deranged pronouncements. ASAIAC, anyone parroting or reporting on the insane utterances of half-brained #MadKingDonny is a traitor to their country, to global peace, and a threat to the our collective future. As for the current US Administration, the support they have from the #sycophant Congress and #Billionaires, all ought to be castigated to the full extant of democratic processes and its Courts.

  19. A cartoon from Goris, to wrap up this week in news of "USA: the hottest swamp, nobody's ever drained a swamp like this before...

    Only one other person on earth can lie this consistently and blatantly, non-stop.

    The other, of course, is the #King of the #Swamp, Sir #TrumpVirus - with "all the best words", all lies &/or delusion, tossed at us in one big #WordSalad.

  32. Whether it is in politics, at work, or in our personal lives, a sycophant is not healthy for either party. Demeaning oneself for others, inflating egos & creating unhealthy relationships will not help anyone long term. It can also help hide more dangerous behaviors. #sycophant #unhealthy #dangerous #demeaning #relationship

  40. I don't know what the mental calculus running a trillion dollar company with a margin over 40% is, but avoiding 100% tariffs is likely part of it. Trying to not be noticed, brown-nosing, cheaping-out gold-plated sycophant behavior to fly under the radar might be a strategy; worked so far, despite defenestrating a great reputation. Or maybe not. That huge profit margin could pay for lawyers that can't help but win against the TACO bully. He could've and could still to be a hero or worst case a martyr. Maybe the FCC attacking #Apple News is the straw that breaks the camel's back? Certainly, Tim Cook has enough in his savings account that he can afford to be fired by the board?
