Thingy

 Peer pressure is real. We do things we normally wouldn't do when we're with a crowd and one lunkhead comes up with an idea as individuals we'd laugh at or dismiss. When you're a kid, you want to fit in, or at least not be a target for others. One true guide to prove we have become an adult is to step up and say no to the mob mentality.  As the Argentinian soccer team turned their backs on Spain as it celebrated its win, one player watched them lift their deserved award. Jose Manuel Lopez refused to give in to such an ugly response. I can only imagine what he is dealing with today because he chose to be an adult. Millions of young people watched the games. Many have a favorite player and look up to them. I confess that I did not watch one second of any the games and only saw blurbs about the action. One favorite player is Lionel Messi, the Argentinian captain who also had his back turned, but allegedly congratulated Spain for the win later. Since I know nothing about th...

  This story that I wanted to share has been sitting on the back burner because I knew there was no way I could not describe how truly disgusted I am to see this monstrosity created. I had heard it would be permanently displayed in Times Square or some prominent area for fans to stand before and bow their heads in prayer. So, a lot of foul language and nothing helpful was to be published. My heart soars at the moment because I read here 👇 the maker of this hunk of junk is very angry with us. He calls us, "cheap, cheap, cheap." Yeah, that's not a great marketing idea, pal. The Italian spent, so he says, $100,000 of his own money building the statue. I'm not sure what he used but in no way on this Earth is that worth $100,000. As a dutiful DIY gal who spends $80 on a project that looks like a $2 thrift castoff, I can relate, but that's as much sympathy he will receive from me. It seems no one wants to buy Charlie. In fact, he's read (probably my Bluesky feed) p...

  It's gallows humor I suppose- like when a cop cracks a joke about the corpse lying before him. We can laugh at the monster before us to alleviate the horror regarding his dirty deeds. In this case- two for the price of one, although we all know Andrew Tate is the ringleader and whatever his name is, follows along like a devoted puppy. The two were arrested down in Florida and might be extradited to England unless Trump gives them immunity. They are here because Ric Grenell, a Trump toady welcomed them here to hide out because there's nothing the regime loves more than men who rape women. It's a badge of honor to be in the club. I'm not sure how they were allowed to leave Romania. I'm not sure how they have managed to avoid any consequences to their habit of treating women like objects and share their knowledge with other men who too would like to learn how they too can rape and beat women and girls. But, let's discuss fashion because Andrew was arrested in wha...

  A certain podcast influencer occasionally mentions one of the orange man's gifts is that he can read a room and adjust accordingly. Usually it's with anger and screaming. I don't think Trump remotely comprehended the vibes as he stood onstage with the winners of the World Cup. Even after Infantino politely tried to escort him off, he stood there. What was especially weird was that he wasn't looking at the players, but towards the fans who were joyous in the win. Has he gotten to the point where his brain is now 90% oatmeal that he doesn't realize the applause is not for him? The guy is a walking embarrassment. It truly was a cringe moment, a moment we are witnessing more each day.  People are dying due to this deranged imbecile and yet he has the gall to stand in front of a crowd basking in someone else's time to shine. I'm a bit worried at the moment because the games are over. He's going to need something else to focus on, something besides working t...

  I got frickin annoyed yesterday on Bluesky because I wasn't in on the newest gossip around the cooler. "Jimothy? Is he new? What's so damn special about Jimothy? He's not getting my job!" I soon learned Jimothy eats garbage and sleeps all day- cause he's a RACCOON! HA! Apparently a woman was sitting in a park just minding her business when this hairy ball trots by. Jimothy would be considered a special needs child if he was human. Fortunately, the raccoon couldn't care less what you think of him. He's living his best life and the other raccoons don't whisper behind his back or come up to him and shout, "What happened to you!?" Then he's gotta explain he was born with a spinal defect as the curious lose interest and back away. Next time Jimothy should tell them he got squished in a garbage truck or something dramatic.  Over five million and counting have viewed the video as the human records the raccoon sauntering to wherever he'...

  Oh, boy. Okay, you can do what you want, but y'all think this is normal!?  Katherine Krick is... Uh, let's see, what is she? She's a minister pastor prophet apostle demon slayer. She claims to have the supernatural ability to draw out Satan and exorcise him from your body. She was in the midst of a book signing when a young lady had a conniption fit, or what they call, thrashing. I'm not sure if she was an actual paying customer or part of the entertainment. It sure got a reaction. I'm going to assume those in line, felt it.  I once dated (briefly) in my younger days a man who was dealing with his own demons. He grew up surrounded by crazy people who went to the church where people start to write and speak in tongues. He was torn between what he told me was a lot of theatrics and he was embarrassed by it all. So he said. Soon after we broke up because all along he had been dating a female who belonged to his church and he was swept away after seeing her thrash an...
