Thingy

  Mom's pastel  Can it be I started blogging on Blogger in 2009? We've had an on again off again relationship since, but I come back because I need to write. Fortunately, for me, anyway, I saved many of my posts before leaving Blogger the first time. I'm looking at them now, compiled in a book which was published on Amazon. I sold five copies before I unpublished it. Going through it now makes me a bit sad, not because it was bad, but because I still like what I wrote. I am surprised by some of the work and think, "Wow, I wrote that." Even then I was bashing the orange man. Back then I had a few faithful readers who led me to believe I was a decent writer. Blogging was fun, until it wasn't. I then made a half hearted attempt again a few years back, but became disillusioned within weeks. With this new blog I have one official follower, and one good blogging friend. I like going to his blog. It's like childhood friends hanging out, raising our fists against ...

  Do you solemnly swear, to the best of your ability  "I don't know." To preserve, protect and defend  "I don't know." Faithfully execute the Office of President  "I don't know." Falsehoods  Number of lies in second term  6,000+169 and counting. Admitting that he most likely will not uphold the Constitution is probably the first truth to ever come out of his mouth. *Lie chart from the Toronto Sun **Number of lies by Statista

  You know what's sad about this? Of course you do. Doing something decent becomes headline news .  Bravo to Edwin Eisendrath for that act of kindness. I do not want to mitigate the generosity, the simple act of putting a coat on a unhoused person. We don't treat our homeless well in this country. I think our first impression when we see people with pushing their carts filled with plastic bags of nothing, we feel contempt.  "Must be a drug user, an alcoholic, a lazy loser." I'm guilty, I confess. I then check myself. It's not just this human who makes me uncomfortable. It's my reaction to their predicament. I see them. They are human beings. Something happened. I could be one of them. I turn away because I am uncomfortable knowing how close any one of us is one, two, five steps away from being unhoused. Under the Trump regime it will only get worse. We are seeing it already. People's jobs have been eliminated. Rent is outrageous. An apartment that went...

   Clearly, there is something very wrong with John Fetterman . His outburst last week at a meeting with representatives of a teacher's union, where people were visibly upset, some in tears because they realized how very sick he seems to be. Now, the people who say they love him must intervene. Fetterman has many health issues including having a stroke in 2022. Doctors said there was no brain damage or cognitive issues. Perhaps over time the damage intensifies, or, he has had another stroke. Being a witness to seeing the effects a stroke can cause, I urge his family to get him help. My mother laid on the sofa in the living room for two days before my father even noticed she needed help. Seeing her after she was diagnosed with having a stroke was a shock. She could no longer speak coherently. She was incontinent and had to wear adult diapers. She would burst into angry growls when frustrated with people around her who couldn't understand her. Before she had her first stroke sh...

  Hurray, it's officially touron season! Our first tourist of the season is this  moron  who was gored by a bison in Yellowstone National Park after disregarding rules about getting too close to the bison.  It never ceases to amaze me when I see people blatantly ignore rules and all common sense by thinking they are animal whisperers. Animals do not think like humans. We constantly insert our human emotions onto an animal and expect them to think like us. Then people are shocked when an animal does what an animal does.  It's aggravating to watch a woman trying to pet a 2,000 pound wild beast. There is another video of a inebriated male taunting several bison while tourists watch in horror.  If the orange man can be king, I decree I am the queen, but in a far off land, away from the wicked imposter. As queen anyone who disregards the rules in national parks will pay a very hefty price. Their lives. But, since I'm a fair queen, I'll give them a chance to walk...

(sung to the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody)  Is this the side for the colonoscopy  Caught an arst blast, no escape from toxicity  Closing my eyes, look up to the sky and breathe Just an intern, a first year residency  Cause I've no income, a lowly bro  Probing high, he let go Anyway the wind blows, his gas fumes are killing me, killing me  Mama, just killed a man Put a hose inside his butt, got it jammed into his gut Mama, I'm now on the run Secret service wants to blow me away MAGA, I didn't mean to make you cry Just leave a note, his suit I had to borrow Here they come, hurry up, it doesn't really flatter   Brioni I see a silly shady shallow of a man  Scaramucci, Scaramucci, how fast does your van go  Mass revolt from the right-wing very very frightening  Cheese with mayo, cheese with mayo, no tomato,  hold the mustard, off we go! I'm just an intern who killed the president  Here I am, an El Salvador resident  He's now ...
