That’s it, never voting for Alexi again. How dare he post something awkward on social media?

Narcissism in State Government.

Nope, crypto still makes no sense even if you look at it on two laptops while laying on the ground.
Comment by Three Dimensional Checkers Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 12:25 pm
“Are you laying on the ground?”
“No, I’m at my desk delivering for the people of Illinois.”
“Alexi, we can see your feet behind your head…”

It’s fine, I’ll stay here watching YouTube videos until it’s time for me to run for another office, you guys do whatever it is we’re suppose to do

It’s a good thing I put that tile device in my shoes so I wouldn’t lose them. Now I just need to figure out which laptop I synced it with

I’m not saying Alexi is the biggest baby in state government, I’m not saying that… #Seriously #TummyTime #Tells

Now Frerichs there is pandering, and here Mendoza is I guess pandering… how come I seem most phony?

Man, creating busy work to seem engaged takes work too.

I hope he’s shopping for new socks. Hasn’t the goofy sock craze passed yet?

I’ll take the Heat +125, and the Golden Knights +115… ok, now in this laptop…

Ok, Alexi, let’s try one without the cigar and the smirk, pretend you are working, like doing work.

I’m glad we decided not to tweet the picture of me on the Adirondack chair, with a cigar, working in my tan.
This one is way better
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:21 pm
Honest question. Is there any world in which this is funny/cute/humanizing? Because I am a loss to understand why anyone in their right mind would attempt to do anything like this cringey cringey cringey use of social media.
Comment by Immigrants Welcome Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:22 pm
All Secretary of State employees must be in the office full time, no exceptions, and be ready to work their full shifts.
Looks good, I’ll just hit send and get back to Solitaire on the other laptop
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:25 pm
The one day I wore those gag gift socks someone took my picture.
Comment by West Side the Best Side Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:25 pm
I’m not mocking the office, I’m just mocking that I can do this and y’all can’t do anything about it.
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:27 pm
I dunno, looking wholly entitled while mockingly saying you’re serving the people takes a lotta…

I keep bidding on the “pop a shot” here on this site, and the pinball machine on that laptop, it’s going to be a long couple years…

Just think…
Someone on the state’s dime took a picture like this…
That’s fun, isn’t it?

“I could use some good publicity. Let’s see, ‘Alexi’s Grumbling Team?’ ‘Alexi’s Stumbling Team?’ Alexi’s Mumbling Team?’
“I think I’m getting close.”

I though Alexi had a mobile of sharks he used to keep his head up during #TummyTime

“Yow. What did I ever do to this Oswego Willy character?”
Comment by Streator Curmudgeon Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 1:53 pm
It’s uncanny. When I watch the British version of “The Office” and watch the American version of “The Office” at the same time, I forget which version is which. Weird.

You think a *third* laptop would be too much, I don’t wanna come off as a privileged phony mocking people actually working…

Tomorrow, let’s do a tweet with me, like on a Peloton, and looking at like a screen and tweet “and just like that, I’m doing the work of the people”… like a twist on that Sex and the City… but I’m *working* …

Never tweet.
Ever.

“Dang. My polling’s showing wearing ridiculous socks isn’t as endearing as eating an apple every day.”

What did I miss these past 10 years?
The narcissism that’s also mocking others.

Comment by McGuppin Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 2:35 pm
While it’s impossible and unfair to compare anyone to Jesse White…
… it is possible to mock people… who see an entitled politician look like a silly teenager… watching YouTube … waiting for Uber eats during the first week of summer vacation.
Is working for the state so easy you look like you’re 8 seconds away from rolling on your back to take a nap?
This isn’t fun “behind the scenes kookiness”, this is a spoiled rich kid saying “this is me working hard”
It’s unfair to anyone to be compared to Jesse White, but Alexi has no clue why White was beloved.
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 2:43 pm
Ungratefully, back in politics.
Comment by Oswego Willy Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 3:04 pm
How big is Alexi? Sooooo big
Such a growed up big boy, who’s mommy’s favorite boy?
Comment by Frida's Boss Thursday, Jun 8, 23 @ 4:06 pm
I love you.
You love me.
We’re a happy family.
With a great big hug.
A kiss from me to you.
Won’t you say you love me too?

I was told Jesse White did this exact pose 20 years ago
