Would that word of the day be in reference to the picture, or the posting of the picture?

Consider which ever way you want - ultimately the word of the day was what the day was ..International Bonkers Day.

I think that by definition and not preference, in a rational world that would then be classified as a reference to the posting of the picture, and according to dependence on the duality of opposites for interpreting phenomena, anti-rational, which is how bonkers is oft' described, would necessarily reference the picture, given the limited options.

Agent:
"one engaged in undercover activities (such as espionage) : spy"

Comment: The FBI ran out of lies to hide the presence of more than two dozen informants who were at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. They were informants before that date. None were charged with a crime. They were likely paid informants. An agent without a government retirement plan is still an agent.

What are the odds that the FBI is lying about what their "agents" were doing there?

The odds are pretty good.

The FBI director is quitting a 10-year gig in year 7. Run and hide, Wray. Run from the Kraken and hope that cleaning up the messes caused by all the other lies of the Obama/Biden/Harris administration, and splitting hairs over the definition of agent, will fill up the time.

Irony

I knew a guy named Ronald once - he went by Ron
his son was named Ronald Jr.
his son would say, "This is my father, his name is Ron..."
"and I'm more Ron"

Very good.

I've got a really fun uncle over from UK atm. Uncle John, and he named his son after himself (JJ) Problem is I use FB Messenger to chat to my uncle and take the piss out of him etc..but every now and then I accidentally message his son because they both use their full names on FB Messenger - annoys the shit out of me - my Uncles Avatar keeps randomly changing too which doesn't help - he doesn't change the avatar, in fact he's banned from FB but can use messenger..

I had a friend at my school in UK called Andrew Kerr - he changed it from Wayne Kerr (his parents were immigrants and didn't realise their mistake, an all boys school can be very rough on such matters)

Poo
noun [ C or U ] mainly UK informal

(a piece of) solid waste from the body:

BULLSHIT!! ..that's not wot just happened!

A Determination: (i.e., choice)
4. “Absolute direction to a certain end.” (https://webstersdictionary1828.com/Home ... ermination)

Comment: Choosing is dithering, but choice is the discovery of a determination. Any end is always* a certainty to be discovered.


* "Always," indicates a statement of truth.

Solidaridad (solidarity) =

Collective support— according to some old political propaganda

oblate

Autopen: “a device that mechanically reproduces a person’s signature."

Used in a sentence: Many of Biden’s signatures were signed by autopen.

What’s not used in a sentence is the human behind the autopen.

Fewer

People often misuse the word “less,” by using it in place of the word “fewer.” Nails on a chalkboard. As a result, fewer people are using the word “fewer.” The spreading prevalence and acceptance of the blatant misuse makes one wonder, why?

Oh, don’t worry. The crazy goes deep and Trump is old.

The climate will return to normal before too many political years pass.

In the meantime, watch how it's done.
