You Voted For This

 


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, others say Renee hadn't spoken to you in years. I could understand that. You dismissed her. You voted for a man who would try to make her life miserable because of the people she loved. 

And you have the damn nerve to say anything now!? I don't consider you brave. I find you complicit in your daughter's death as well as the many many people whose lives are forever changed. You did this. 

Oh, this is my nice post. The draft was unpublishable, yet it was more honest. 

Here's an idea, Ms. Ganger. Go home. Sit it out. I'm betting you'll still support your MAGA base and the clown running the country into the ground. You're so right, your daughter did not have to die. We agree on that. The difference is, I didn't vote for this- you did.

The Best Books Of All Time?

Image
  😬 I consider myself an avid reader. Having noted that, there are very few books I have read from The Guardian's best 100 books of all time. My list is less than a dozen, even counting a few I started and never finished. 174 prominent writers participated in creating brain food for your pleasure. They each contributed ten of their favorite reads and someone somewhere somehow tabulated the favorites. Without further ado, the number one book of all time is ...... Middlemarch. The fucking hell it is. Lol. Like art, what you like is subjective. Some people believe Manga is good stuff. Others prefer historical novels, blah, blah, blah. I suppose the list is supposed to be taken more seriously because actual writers who make a living writing books have listed what they deemed the best read. I'm not a writer. I suppose like a musician who reads notes, understands the structure, the form, the timbre, they can recognize the whole. I just want a book that will entertain me and not try...

She's Still Dead

   Ashli Babbitt was a traitor to this country. They can have all the ceremonial shenanigans the military likes to present as the deceased has been offered full military honors (We all know who requested that) it still won't negate the fact that she and thugs like her stormed a government building to do harm to others. They shit in the hallways. They carried confederate flags. They brought zip ties, bats and rage. The current regime can sugar coat it all they want but one day the orange man will be manure for his golf course grass and we can go back to truth being important. She deserved to be shot. More of them should have been shot that day. Every police officer should have followed the example of the police officer who did his job that day. These deplorables remind me of the fictional character, Ignatius J. Reilly, a lazy, selfish narcissist who decided to gather the factory employees in protest of some useless, archaic self indulgent mischief. He brought from home his soil...

Benny, Benny And No Regrets

  It's just so hard to keep up with maga creeps. Here's Benny  Johnson, the guy who started the rumor that DC was a cesspool. He also claimed his house burned down while his family was in it. He's a liar. His house never burned down. You really can't believe much of what this asshat says because he has a habit of playing with facts. He also likes to steal other people's words. He has been fired and suspended numerous times for plagiarism, at least 41 times. It just boggles my mind when these people blatantly lie, then are outraged when called out. People like Johnson, Trump and Leavitt have probably lived their whole lives creating a make believe existence where lying is the norm. At some point it just becomes routine where they find lying acceptable and necessary. To me they are empty shells of mindless walking automatons. They live in a bubble of falsehoods. These are the people in charge of our country.  The NYTimes has done a story about Pinocchio Johnson. I dec...
