It’s been three years and some days since Trump and his merry band of Trumpiots tried to overthrow the government. Oh yes, you did! YES, you DID, Brett! That’s what insurrection looks like. They actively and intentionally took affirmative steps (I see you, Q Anon Shaman) to stop the certification of the 2020 presidential election …
Well That’s Just Nasty
Lucas Davenport is one of the great anti-heroes in modern fiction. The Prey series is seriously well done, all eleventy-hunnert & 12 books of it … if you (Other Person, You) like Reacher you’ll likely enjoy the exploits of ex-hockey player turned cop turned … vigilante (?) with a badge. Major difference? He’s a great …
True American Horseman
He should have gotten the Oscar. But I understand why he didn’t. Perception is everything, and reveling in America’s bloodlust via such a celebratory demonstrative manner is frowned upon. Glad he didn’t hit the dog, tho’. Chris Kyle was the man. Thought Brad Cooper did a great job in the role. Totally hulked out, too. …
Ahh, the Joy. All the Joy
One of the best things about married life? Never getting to watch the program you want. See, when spouses spent time together in front of the idiot box, typically one spouse (see: Half) does not want to watch the stupidity the other spouse (see: other half) is currently watching. Ergo: “Where’s the remote?” So much …
Status Update
Whelps, now that we’re into, what, year 3? of training our debt monkeys in this here credit circus, where do things stand? Ehhh … could be better, but we are better than worse, so there’s that. Basically, threw some significant bananas to starve out a bunch of monkeys, so … happy about that. Had to …
Population: Controlled
As another year ends, the third after the “plandemic” (but not really because this “virus” doesn’t recognize its exaggerated demise and what, again, is that new variant?) and folks are still fighting going back into the office. Nobody wants to be there. Nobody. Yet employers refuse to recognize that. It’s easier/better/preferable to just live at …
One More for the Road
Truck died. While driving. Limped right on off to the side of the road/shopping plaza parking lot. She told me she was having problems … I was listening, just not hard/quickly enough. Started glaring at me from the dashboard with those belligerent and hostile red eyes. Now, Truck has many issues … she’s an old …
“Baying and Screaming”
I’m laughing as I look at that. The visual is pristine. And not to get into the Tom Cruise controversy but to get into the Tom Cruise controversy … … he is Ethan Hunt, not Jack Reacher. Reacher is blond, blue-eyed(?), 6’5, and around 250 pounds, and Tom Cruise is not.… (that’s about 18 stone …
Indelible
This nation will never be clean. The stain is embedded in the fabric. Methinks me must agree with the losers on this: tearing down Confederate monuments is not the right/smart move. What about Stone Mountain? Gonna blast the face of that rock? Might as well do Mount Rushmore, too. The crimes against humanity are basically …
Who Teaches Foster Kids to Tie Their Shoes?
Maybe they just get those Velcro closures. But who buys them? Speaking of … one of theKid’s teammates at a fairly-recent sporting display had to have Mom tie this kid’s shoes. Now, this kid was within the same age realm as theKid … too old for diapers, not quite tween … and yet had absolutely …
