Thingy

 Before I wrote yesterday's rant, I started a post - actually, I finished a post about Bluesky and where it might be headed. I deleted it because sometimes the truth hurts. I feel Bluesky's days are numbered. The influencers with the million followers on X have been disappointed when they post on the alternative. I think it's largely due to the sycophantic feel. Every comment is just an approval of the original post multiplied by 1,000. It gets boring after awhile and for the influencer maybe a bit annoying. It's an ick. Most of the people on Bluesky are here because we want change, we want everyone to be happy - and right now we are just sitting on our hands because there's nothing to be done. Besides the political side, there is art and music and movies to discuss. All lovely and safe formats for the most part. Then, there are the pets - loads and loads of dead or dying pets.  I try to engage with posters, sometimes I go too far to just get a reaction - anything, ...

  Okay, I'm going to try and write this post without going insane. I had to delete the first draft because it was a tad harsh regarding the subject matter. Renee Good's mother sat before a congressional forum yesterday and demanded there be accountability and changes regarding how ICE agents do their job. They shouldn't be killing people. Well, they shouldn't be killing white people, like her daughter. I have little doubt she'd give one ounce of consideration to a brown person being shot in the head. She said her daughter should be alive today. Yes, mom, yes, Renee should be alive today, but you voted for this. You voted for this because you wanted thugs to go after other people, not your people.  Some would say you are brave to come forward especially with a half eaten face by the leopard. I'm not sure how you have the nerve to sit in that seat and demand changes. I've heard conflicting stories about your relationship with Renee. Some say you were close, ot...

  Ok, I didn't think the latest, 'War of the Worlds,' was that terrible, although, I see why people disliked it. It was a commercial for the MAGA billionaires. Every product supplied by Bezos, Zuckerberg, Musk and the Google guy were blatantly shown, front and center. I'm also not sure how the filmmakers were allowed to use the iconic title.  If you haven't seen it , and many people have seen it simply to hate on it, let me take you through it. Ice Cube is basically a hacker who works for our government. He spies on everyone including his own grown children. Whilst he's at work, spying, the space invaders arrive because they want Goliath, or to destroy Goliath, for some reason. Goliath is a secret cyber weapon by our government which would give them full control of humans. How and why, I dunno. I don't know why the aliens wanted it either. While everything that runs on ones and zeros is destroyed Cube finds out his son is an even better hacker and knew all a...

 This will sound pretty unwoke, but, isn't it weird the ICE agents who are murdering and lying under oath about attempted murder, have last names that would catch the attention of ICE agents? Is this some form of self preservation people are using so they are not rounded up, zip tied and hauled off to an unknown future? The identity of the two agents who murdered Alex Pretti are known to us (Jesus  Ochoa and Ray Gutierrez) and there is some speculation they may be arrested in Minnesota for their heinous act. The other story involves another agent with an interesting last name- Castro , who has been charged with lying under oath after he claimed he and his partner were attacked. Video has proven his statement as false, although he is pleading his innocence.  So, what's going on? Some people will do anything to survive, even if that means turning into a despicable subhuman in order to live another day- a day that now involves violence and ugliness beyond belief. To them it ...

  I don't know a lot about computers and technology. In my day you had to use a phone to connect to your computer which took up half a room because they were so big. I never really had use for them until a friend gave me his old computer. Then, I was hooked. When I walked into our local Internet service center, my first question was, "Does this come with Google or do I have to pay to get that?" My daughter got sick of me asking questions so I learned as I went along. I know YouTube was a big deal for me. It was magical. Lolcats and Myspace- wow! Then came Topix and Blogger. The only game I ever played was the rice game which is so fun and helps by donating rice to developing communities. I also found computer generated art apps, which I still use, as you can see. There are things I refuse to use such as the QR code. I'm sure eventually I will need to use it but I'm trying to limit my use on the Internet, not add to it. The thing is, I try. I try to learn new thin...

  Well, well, well...  is little Lauren Boebert pitching for the other team? Word is she's allegedly been working the staff overtime. Is this such a surprise, folks? There's a reason there are stereotypes and Lauren fits the Daisy Dukes. You can take the girl out of the double wide but she'll park it on Capitol Hill.  I didn't grow up in a trailer park although we had neighbors who would have fit right in. I have written about our neighbors down the road who played Elvis at jet decibels and rolled their own tobaccy. You could always count on a lint covered popcorn ball on Halloween from them. The other family lived a little further down the road. There was always ten vehicles in the driveway, most on blocks with no wheels. They had at least four mean eyed dogs that would eat you if you got too close but they were chained to a tree. There was, Earl, Floyd, Boyd, Roy and Mavis- not the dogs, but the humans. If you have ever seen the movie, 'To Kill a Mockingbird,...
