Started off the New Year with some gruesome … theKid attends a private school (of course) quite a distance from the house (of course) and the area is somewhat rural … not entirely, because “Murrica ain’t really that where we live, but there is/are farms, livestock, and long stretches of road between stoplights/intersections, such ‘n …

Baby Blues
Read a funny story the other day. Not funny in the sense of high hilarity, but in the sense of “laugh or scream.” Guy got a vasectomy. Then the wife got pregnant. Suitably outraged at being married to a harlot, the man demanded a paternity test and a divorce. Oops. Turns out, the kid was …
Bloated ‘n Swole, the Sequel / AKA – More Fat
One aspect of the Great Debt Escape that methinks is discussed too oft-little is the cost of actually trying to live while getting out of debt. Yeh yeh yeh I know … reduce expenses, direct those savings to debt satisfaction, stop using cards … yadda-yadda, yadadadadada whatevs And I noticed that many of the debt-free …

Debt Check
Meguess to start the newly yeared with a debt check, see how/what my monkeys are doing. Progress is admittedly slow, but it isn’t as if life stops whilst one tries to get one’s turds in order … those chimps just keep on flinging poo … So, without further ado (more ado, always ado) … the …
Oops Might Not Ever Happen Again (Good)
There’s stat somewhere that says by 2030, 45 percent of US women will be single and childfree. Historically, across the human populations, approximately 80 percent of women reproduced, whereas only 40 percent of men did. Estimates for 2020 put women at about 3.8B women, and 3.86B men, or roughly 101.7 men for every 100 women. …

Thankful, Grateful
Didn’t get anything for Christmas. No matter. Not my birthday (heh) theKid and Half were well-provisioned, which is really what/who matters, and JESUS was likely born in the spring anyway, so … For a minute there, decided to dispense with the whole “celebration” of Christmas, felt it a little too pagan for its purposes, but …
Color Me Horrified
OK SO THE APOCALYPSE IS COMING BUT NOT FASTER THAN THE DECLINE OF AMERICAN CIVILIZATION Sorry for shouting but I feel I must scream. At least I have a mouth (thank you, H. Ellison, and you claim to have never done drugs / good on you) see, as envisioned & foretold, AI is being weaponized …
Boss Cost
Methinks perhaps we are entering the realm of diminishing retur— nah, forget that. Just fix the darn thing. {Luke 6:42} Handle one’s own business, as it t’were. See, Truk now has an oil leak, fairly significant, but oil levels remain … level. Likely a rear main seal. Gah. Good thing, tho’ ‘cuz there is sort …
Not Paying for That
Apparently, there’s another epidemic ravaging America, and I had no clue. Which isn’t hard, because I cultivate not having a clue, but even this one is surprising to me. Who knew … that fentanyl overdoses are the leading cause of death in ’Murrica for those between 18 and 49. What? Yeh. News Makes me wonder …
Intolerance for Everyone!
Just read a news blurb re a restaurant’s denial of service to a Christian group. Said the restaurant was committed to inclusivity and the waitstaff would feel uncomfortable, based on the group’s views. Is not that not what that is? Hmmm … Heard a radio confession where a woman thought she and her husband had …
