"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 liar if you deny blowing up certain news events to make the other side look bad. The truth is somewhere in there but it's not enough. Soon people like me will get their news from garbage sources because we can't afford to read real news. It's frustrating. I guess I could be a member of X where it's a rabbit hole of opinions, lies and name calling where many of you self righteous analysts like to hang out. You bitch about Elon, but use still use platform. 

We are on a real slippery slope, especially when I seek information and get most of it from a bot now.

I'm not paying to read your opinion. I'm not subscribing to your exclusive articles. Fuck that. We better find another way, soon, for everyone to have access to unbiased news. You can scream Henny Penny all day long but you're part of the problem when you deny everyone in becoming better people.

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

Image
   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...

I Don't Want To Harp On It

Image
Do you ever ask yourself, "How? How does he get these women to fall for him?" That's a good question. And I think many of you would say, "Money." Or, you, over there, "Power." Well, yes, usually when we see a good looking woman, one who just passed puberty, locking arms with a guy that looks like Abe Vigoda, we can all assume she's sold her soul for money. A pair of Jimmy Choos means more to her than self respect.  But, when it comes to the orange man, there's something there- something I don't see but other women do. He was somewhat attractive when he was young, albeit the frat boy, prowler type. Now he's just a living, rotting carcass.  So, why does Natalie Harp want him so badly, and who the hell is Natalie Harp?  The only thing I know about her is what I have heard from the Daily Beast, which isn't much. She's a young lady who hangs around Trump as if she's his wife. (You need a contract for that) I'm guessing Trump ...
