The Meeting

 


 Is it over? As a nonbeliever in the god cult, I am frustrated by the amount of attention one man receives for continuing the indoctrination into the cult. Almost every world leader was there to say their goodbyes. 

The clown wore a blue suit and appeared to be sleeping at times, although, I think it's just an old man pose. They slump and drool. Wonder if Sleepy Joe kept his eyes open? And everyone lied about the seating arrangement. Trump had a front row seat.

One thing regarding the orange man and Zelensky...it seems Trump is finally realizing Putin is not his buddy. There is no bromance. 

Back to the funeral... They suck. When I've had the misfortune of attending one, the minute I enter the funeral parlor, a weird sensation overwhelms me. Of course it could be the dead body front and center that throws me off. 

The last funeral I attended was for my sister's son, who died in his sleep. He suffered from sleep apnea. He used a machine during the night to help with his breathing and alarms bells would go off if he stopped breathing. When my sister found him after he never came down for breakfast, she said he looked like he was sleeping. His CPAP mask was lying on the floor next to his bed. 

Funerals are difficult, especially when a young person has died.

I think many of us had had a moment when we said, "That could have been me." I did when I was sixteen. My girlfriend had recently gotten her driver's license after her third attempt. I had only driven with her once before and it was absolutely terrifying. She zoomed down a busy street oblivious to her surroundings. I was so glad to get out of her car and kiss my cats.

The following Summer she asked me if I'd like to fill out some work applications around town. Recalling the last time I rode in a car with her, I made up an excuse, and never saw her again.

I still don't know the full details but I knew the area where her vehicle and a mack truck plowed into each other. 

I don't go to funerals to say goodbye to the deceased. I go to hug a friend or a sister who will never be the same. 

The one and only useful outcome of the Pope's funeral is seeing Trump and Zelensky talking. If ever there were two opposing definitions of what is is to be a man, that is it. Hopefully, Zelensky's grace and decency will open Trump's black heart and show him how wrong he is about Putin.

Then a funeral for fallen idol will be well worth it.

An Empty Vessel

He fills his head with Bible quotes  to silence the storm inside  An empty, hollow shell he mimics in disguise  You were not wanted You were unplanned  You are a nothing You have no stand  He bows his head and speaks in tongues  to still the flames of rage the pretender, fake, the fraud  hiding in plain sight You were a mistake  A thirty minute accident  a constant regretful memory  who seeks reason to breathe  from holy ghosts  and devils in red ties  the more you take the lesser man you are smoke and mirrors a shifting shape unseen  You are a mistake  You know it well A fake, a fraud, a lie. *Yes, I'm thinking of a certain someone we know.

Denver, Dover, Dever

  OMG! Kelly Denver, I mean Dover, no, Dever was on the stand in the Karen Read Trial. Holy Moly!  In 2023, she wrote a statement claiming she saw two Canton police officers who were in the sallyport "for a wildly long time." where Karen Read's SUV had been towed. Now Devers, who gets snippy if her name is mispronounced, says that was all a false memory. She now says she wasn't even working at the time the SUV was brought in. Taking the stand on Monday, she accused the defense of angrily confronting her after learning she had changed her testimony, then Dever's states they threatened to charge her with perjury. She said she went to the FBI to make a complaint. Alan Jackson, the defense attorney asks, "Do you have a report?" Naturally, she did not, because she made no such report.  Of all the people who have pissed me off, and there is a long list, she is by far the worst. She is a cop whose recall of events is crucial. She is hostile and a terrible liar....

FAFO Literally

Image
   Gosh, well isn't that generous. $5,000.  I'm gonna go out right now and find me an Elon, ready to spare some sperm and have me some babies. I'll be rich! Oh, wait... Ooh, that's gonna put a dent in my FA for the cause. Let's see... $5,000 - $2,854 = $2,146 left for me to... Oh, wait... Hmm... so, $70 x 12 = $840, which leaves me with $1,306. So, I will need a bassinet, crib, some bedding, burpy towels, baby wipes, baby bottles, formula, breast pump, room monitor, pediatrician, onesies, uh ... I need to work! Who's going to care for my baby while I'm gone!? I'm so tired. I can't do this. The government has shut down all assistance. What am I going to do with a baby!? I think I'll go have a glass of wine with my peeps instead. *All information Googled.
