Mor On Brand

Image
  I'm going to continue to write about the Russell Brand trial until the very end. I was shaking as I read the latest testimony from some of his victims. His wife is in the courtroom and as she listens to the women talk about being anally raped, forced into oral sex and dismissed as males around her laughed and shrugged at her need for help, she seems to do the eye roll. At one point when a woman shared a certain trait about Brand his wife looked at him, apparently tossing metaphorical daggers. Maybe she is familiar with his foreplay habits. Grab breasts, grope, shove, sloppy kisses, rape.  After one victim told the courtroom she initially had consensual sex with Brand, he then anally raped her. She screamed for him to stop. He did not. When he was done he told her to clean up the mess. So why didn't these women say something? Do I really need to answer that? Why did these women seem to submit instead of screaming their heads off? Because they were afraid they'd be fired o...

A Bundy Miracle!

  It's a miracle! Christina Applegate never had MS. She says she has been misdiagnosed for six years. Damn, I know healthcare in this country is bad and it's because of the cost and not the fine doctors who are just doing their jobs. That's what I thought. Maybe they just don't care anymore or maybe plumbers are being hired because all our doctors moved to other countries. So daaaaaaamn. Misdiagnosed. Six years.  I'm not going to add much to this because it's early. We haven't heard from the medical team who were apparently truly incompetent and couldn't get the right diagnosis for this very important person.  Seriously, if she was misdiagnosed, I'm not sure what could have been done differently. Her symptoms are the same. It's not like she was faking using a wheelchair and a cane and looking not so good.  Now now, Maggie, don't be a cynic.  I will also add this  because it can happen. To be continued.... *Tried to draw the blinking girl mem...

Shady And A Rock

  I received a notification from YouTube where someone responded to a comment I had left over a year ago regarding the schism in this country between MAGA and the sane people. The vlogger said their can never be a peace offering given to the MAGA base and I agreed. I still agree with that assessment. I don't know if he has changed his mind. Most people have not. The responder to my comment wrote that we can never heal if we remain enemies, we need to work together. For me that's like saying if this had been during Nazi Germany I should forgive and forget the Germans who snitched on their neighbors or the soldiers who shot children in the head or marched them to the gas chambers. I won't, but obviously Germany has managed to become a decent country where people eat schnitzel and drink beer during Octoberfest with iffy friends who don't talk about the war. Maybe it's because the Jews were either murdered or decided to live elsewhere. Maybe that's why all is well i...

"The Internet Is A Store..."

  Look, I understand y'all have to make a living. Finding a reliable news source is getting harder and harder because ya want money upfront before we can read varying opinions and even legit information. One of you is a prominent lawyer who also has a website where you must subscribe to be able to get any news. I'm seeing this more often and at this point I haven't paid for any news media sources except for The Guardian. Which means, eventually I'll probably just be reading bogus crap and Reich wing lies because I can't afford to be enlightened. I'll take a thousand ads instead of paying ten, twenty, a hundred versions of the facts. Now every media must take a stand and a side so we only get a lopsided version of the truth. That's not just a right wing mentality. The left is filled with political pundits, writers, influencers who need their wallets filled before they'll hand you information, which is mostly a skewered version of the truth. You're a l...

Sunday Confession

  "Bless me Father, for I have sinned. I've been cheating this past week. I was very good at first, but the temptation was just too strong, Father. I've never done this before and the very first time I had the opportunity I fell. I fell hard. He's so darn cute, though. I wake up in the morning and think about him. I stay up late, looking at his adorable face and wanting more of him. Help me, Father!" Relax, it's a puzzle, guys. I haven't done a puzzle in a long time. The Thingy household had two things in abundance, books and puzzles. We were poor but never lacked brain food. I never really enjoyed putting puzzles together but it's what you did back in the day when the rain came down and you were stuck inside the house. A few weeks ago I saw this cute puzzle on Temu. Yes, Temu! I thought, why not? Eventually it arrived and when I opened it I found a cheat sheet. 👇 What the hell is this!? There's no cheating in puzzling! I scoffed and tossed the sh...

It's Our Fault

Image
  Well, well, well... You had one job and you f-ed it up. Timothy Busfield is not going to stand trial for sexual misconduct because the state screwed up. It doesn't mean he didn't do what they alleged, it's just they left out relevant information. Whether it was a purposeful act or, they just are not worthy to be lawyers, Busfield is a free man. During the grand jury proceedings jurors asked to be able to hear from three witnesses that apparently were not on the prosecuting attorney's list. The prosecutor told them they need a unanimous vote in order to have the witnesses come forward which could delay the trial significantly. He failed to mention that the judge overseeing the trial also would be able to admit the witnesses, without delay. Seems like a big thing to forget to mention. Busfield must have had the best lawyers money can buy because they found the mistake. Whether the state will try again and try to send Busfield to prison is up in the air. Lucky guy. I...

Be All That You Pretend To Be

  I have given medication to my sick child and other loved ones. I am an expert in cleaning up vomit and other bodily fluids. I know everything there is to know about 7-up vs. ginger ale and can make a chicken noodle soup that will bring back the dead. Therefore, I am a doctor. I did not work in China but have many items made from China, which makes me qualified to share my experiences. From now on, call me Dr. Thingy. Well that pretty much explains the word salad from the still current press secretary (as of 11:17pm, Thursday) as to why she thought she could claim to be a lawyer. According to her former Chinese employers who actually back off even claiming she was really employed, they state they just used her to translate lawyer jargon for them. It is truly incredible the balls people have as they lie about their credentials. I'm going to guess loads of people exaggerate their knowledge, expertise and even whether they have a degree. Katie Zacharia never passed a bar exam, anywhe...
