That Will Do Not What Wants To Do

“Private” company in China is insisting that employees get married or risk discipline up to and including termination for failure to do so by the determined deadline.  Divorce laws in China have been changed so that the person who owned/was gifted the house prior to the marriage gets to keep it, and the other spouse …

Point:Missed / Target:Lost / Objective:Failed

Somewhat of a fan of Matt Walsh, a total troll but good for the interesting. Saw a reaction video of his (thanks, Tubes of You) whereby he felt outraged and righteous indignation at a subreddit “r/regretfulparents.”  MattyDub basically concluded that the forum should not exist, that people choose to be happy or unhappy, and that …

DoomSooth

Mayhaps (or mayhaps not) mentioned ‘round these parts that Half predicted the burning phoenix sequel to the Orange Menace. See, Half works with/is exposed to the knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing standard bearer of the typical Trump voter, and Half said (when the Half-Not was announced following the pending demise of the CryptKeeper) “No way.”  As in, “no …

Even Ted Kaczinski needed to reach out.  Jim Beam has a …

Ballet, Beauty Pageants, and Birth … or Whose Dream Is It, Anyway?

Ring/buzz/trill. “Hello?” “Hey Dad.” “Hey!  It’s my number one son!  How’s it going?” “Good, Dad.  Good.” “And how are all my grandbabies?” Gentle chuckle.  “They’re fine.” “And my daughter-in-law?” “She’s good.” “Planted the next seed yet?” Another chuckle.  “Not just yet.  The baby’s only a few months old, figured I’d give her break.  Maybe have …

BootyHole Worms, AKA Parental Debts

There’s a delightful young woman on the Tok of the Tik – the Girl with the List / @z00mie – and she offers birth control advice / cures for baby fever.  She (I believe the term) “stitches” other clips together of women describing the absolute horror of certain birth situations. For example, one woman reminisced …
