Bagels And Breadsticks

Image
 I played tennis once. My sister wanted me to play against her because she wanted to try out for the high school tennis team. My sister was brave- maybe a little naive as well. Our high school was named one of the best in the state. Of course it was. It was parked in the middle of an affluent area where Brad's and Muffy's resided. Ferris Buehler anyone? Yeah, that affluent. Unfortunately, sister was fighting a losing battle. We came from the other side of the tracks where there was no such thing as extra money for lessons of any kind. I think on the one day I practiced with her we had borrowed badminton rackets. I didn't like running back and forth and I gave up on her. She never had a chance. Some of the girls she made friends with had tennis courts in their back yards, right next to the swimming pools. She never stopped trying to fit in and actually became a pom pom girl. I gave up before I even started. Sometimes Mom would drive me to school (because I tried to ditch) in...

Lowered Expectations

Image
  "Well I knowed she were my cousin. I's just helping her in her antraynewship. I bought her a pop after." So, the government is easing up on certain restrictions in the hiring process. If you hired a hooker in your past, that's ok, you can still be an FBI agent. It's now a case by case assessment. I can only assume the reason the agency is lowering standards is that they can't get good people to join the team. The deed must have been done at least ten years ago, so if you're 25, you hired a hooker when you were fifteen.  Lowering expectations has been going on for quite some time in America. Teaching is a low wage and stressful job. No one wants to do it. It could be why we have uneducated citizens who wouldn't be able to find Lake America on a map. Our scientists are moving to countries who appreciate them. The best and the brightest have choices and they choose respect and the ability to do their job without government interference, especially from...

Donald Hates Maggie And My Conspiracy Theory

Image
  I haven't read the NYTimes in years because of the red tape involved being allowed to read it. It was once the most respected news source on the planet. Now, it is regarded as a loathsome and laughable rag. I know of two people who hate one NYT "journalist," with a passion. Michael Wolff has nothing nice to say about Maggie Haberman. He has called her an opportunistic bitch, which is funny considering the source. I have no idea what Maggie did to Michael, but she put a bee in his bonnet. The other person is of course the orange man who tends to go after female reporters. He's angry with Haberman because she spoke the truth. Trump declined to be at this year's 9/11 memorial because the authorities told him he couldn't make a speech. Since the memorial would no longer be about him, he acted as his usual selfish and narcissistic self- he's not going- which is a blessing actually, but he blames and claims "Maggot" is a liar, among other names I...

Unrequited Love In Tv Foxland

Image
  The only time I ever see Fox Faux News is when I'm sitting in the hospital cafeteria. After lab work I go there because I like the coffee and it's a calming place to sit except for what's on the tv. Whoever chose to put on Fox knows their audience. It's mostly old people who still come to this location, as I do, for lab work. But, I digress. So, I am aware of Laura Ingram who in no way shape or form is a journalist. She's a parrot who shares whatever is whispered in her ear. Until lately, Laura was a trusted MAGA propagandist. She's gone off course a bit because she has been distracted by Abdul El Sayed, the progressive democrat. She can't stop talking about him. I feel like I'm back in highschool, sitting with a group of teenage girls whose only interest is Brad, the quarterback. Buffy: "He's so gross. Look at his giant thighs and tight shirt. I am going to barf on my square pizzaaaa." Miffany: "He's dreamy, whaddya talking abou...

The Eternal Lightness Of Being

Image
  Well I just assumed Jelly Roll was a MAGA, after he was seen with the orange man around election time. Again, another person I really know nothing about. I think he's a country singer who recently lost a lot of weight and a wife as well. Jelly was on a roll the other night when he was guest host for Jimmy Kimmel. Magats are angry now because they believed he was one of them. Well, he looked the part. Obese, tattooed, a felon with horrible  tattoos on his face. I'm still not sure what side he's on but he did get some zingers off regarding Trump. Whatevs. He did say one thing that was interesting and it was about Dolly Parton. He said she may be the very last person who both sides cared about. That might be true because I cannot think of anyone else on the planet who both sides respect and admire. It's odd that the Reich wing hillbillies loved her so much because if they really paid attention, they would have vilified her, called her horrible names, but, they're stu...

Bad Bad Golf

Image
 The world of sports has always been a male dominant field. You're defined as a real man if you watch sports, the bloodier the better. For the most part the misogyny is kept to locker room banter where it's okay to discuss women's body parts and call them cunts. We all know it and somehow we have ignored it. Lately the hate for women by "athletes," is no longer hiding behind closed doors. Male athletes want you to know how they feel. This ad for Good Good Golf is so stunningly hateful I have no doubt they knew exactly what they were doing. I cannot even find the right words to describe how it makes me feel. Rage, anger, grief- all of that and more. I'm not sure who approved of this ad as one of the founders, Garrett Clark, of Good Good Golf, stands around as a woman is seen near his golf clubs. As she starts to touch one, Clark runs towards her and knocks her flat, then tells her to never touch his Callaway club. Who approved this!? Do you think they all sat ...

Fake It Until The Cops Arrive

Image
  Fake it until you make it. In the case of Andrew Tate- fake it until you go to jail. It's good to see Andrew sitting in the clinker although I cannot actually see him- I hear things. He's a man who is used to getting his way in life, somewhat like our orange man. In America we don't have the balls to go after pedophiles so other countries must intervene. Seems the alleged pedophile, trafficker and  misogynistic pig has been faking his wealth. Most people would consider $20 million a pretty decent amount, which is what smart people have figured out Tate is actually worth- money wise. He is worth nothing as a human. Tate doesn't seem to think that's an impressive sum so he has been lying to us. (((Gasp!))) Imagine that. All those fancy cars he drives around in are rentals. He doesn't own a yacht but wants you to believe he does. It's clear he has had to skimp on clothing and was the winning bidder on eBay for the wardrobe of Blanche Devereaux. I never had it...
